Chapter 249: Eight Forbiddens of the Ancients
Yu Sheng looked down at the ground, he had always been very curious, why the ground here gave people a fluffy feeling, Huo Yan saw his expression, explained: "The soul flower blooms every hundred years, the flowers bloom and the leaves wither, the flowers and leaves never meet, the interesting thing is that although this flower is invisible, its leaves are tangible, and the land under our feet is the soil layer formed by the soul flowers and leaves, but unfortunately ......"
"What is a pity?" Yu Sheng turned his head to look at the other party.
Huo Yan said quite poignantly: "It's a pity that the fallen leaves are affectionate, the safflower has no intention, and the soul flower does not use its own fallen leaves as nourishment, but the soul of a person! It is said that when it absorbs the soul of a thousand people, it will never wither, and it will be born without a leaf from then on, so the soul flower is also called "Thousand Soul Flower", isn't it cruel?"
After hearing this, Yu Sheng suddenly bent down and picked up a handful of gray-black soil, and found that it was indeed layer by layer, as if superimposed leaves, and then took out a burlap bag containing spirit stones, filled it, and stuffed it into the mouth of mustard grass without saying anything.
Seeing this, Huo Yan sneered and said, "What you can think of, others have already thought about it, whether it is the soul flower or its leaves, it is of no use to the monk at all, otherwise which round will get you?"
Yu Sheng shrugged his shoulders indifferently, whether it was useful or not, it was not a burden to take some with him, if he had a way to take away the soul flower here, he would not hesitate to pull a few, he had always thought that there was no useless thing in the world, but he didn't find the right way......
The two walked a hundred steps before Yu Sheng asked, "Miss Huo still has a question that hasn't answered me." ”
Huo Yan's face turned slightly pale, she glanced at Yu Sheng without any expression, and said, "You just saved my life, and I will repay this kindness now, so there is naturally no need for this girl to answer you again for the question you asked." ”
"You have a grudge...... How about we make a deal?" Yu Sheng liked the other party's cheerful personality, and no longer beat around the bush, and then said: "According to your state, I think it is difficult to get out of the Soul Burial Ridge, Yu can be responsible for protecting your safety, but you have to take me to a place!"
"What place?" Huo Yan seemed to be very interested in this deal, Yu Sheng was right, with her current state, the chance of being able to get out of the Soul Burial Ridge was almost zero!
"Wu Qilin!"
Huo Yan was taken aback, Yu Sheng shook his head and said, "I thought that my friend was in Wu Cry Forest now, and I had to pick him up!"
"Friend?" Huo Yan pondered for a moment, and said with a solemn gaze: "Do you know where Wu Qilin is?"
"Of course I do!"
"Then you are still going?" Huo Yan looked at Yu Sheng like a fool, and Yu Sheng suddenly asked, "Do you have any friends who can die?"
Huo Yan paused for a moment, his expression was a little weird, he didn't ask anything more, and said: "I can take you to Wuqilin, but after the matter is completed, I have one person to kill, you need to help me!"
Yu Sheng saw that the other party's expression suddenly became a little distorted, and there seemed to be a sea of blood and hatred rolling in his eyes, and immediately asked, "Who is it?"
Huo Yan gritted his teeth and said, "You have seen that person, it is the person who tends to make corpse puppets!"
"The one who drives the corpse puppet...... You say it's a person?" Yu Sheng couldn't believe it, he obviously saw the white bones of Sen Sen from the black mist, how could he be a living person?
Huo Yan said firmly: "At first, like you, I thought that the things in the black fog were ghosts here, but when he controlled the corpse puppet, I knew that this person must be a monk, and the technique of corpse puppets is a common method used by ghost cultivators, but it is the first time I have seen a ghost cultivator who can control so many corpse puppets......"
Yu Sheng was silent when he heard this, and Huo Yan laughed and mocked: "What's the matter?
Yu Sheng was unmoved, and said seriously: "You haven't even figured out the other party's cultivation, so let me help you kill him, it's a bit too child's play......"
"Cultivation, you can rest assured of this! That person is definitely not a Yuanying Cultivator!" Huo Yan said confidently.
"Oh, how can you be sure?" Yu Sheng's eyes rolled, and Huo Yan immediately mocked: "If he is a Yuanying Monk, do you think we can still stand here and chat?"
"That's right...... But Yu was negligent...... Yu Sheng smiled awkwardly, and the next moment he said with a calm gaze: "This deal is settled!"
The two walked together for a few more steps, and Huo Yan suddenly stopped, staring at Yu Sheng with beautiful eyes, and said meaningfully: "I hope I didn't see the wrong person!"
Yu Sheng looked directly at the other party's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "You are a woman, and you don't blush when you say this?"
Huo Yan seemed to realize something, her cheeks were suddenly hot, her eyes widened angrily, and Yu Sheng saw that the situation was not good, and immediately changed the topic: "You and I are in a cooperative relationship now, shouldn't it be time to talk about the purpose of your coming here?"
Huo Yan gradually calmed down the ups and downs in his chest, and said coldly: "We are here for the same purpose as you!"
"We?" Yu Sheng frowned, and Huo Yan suddenly said sadly: "They are all dead! My father and brother are all dead in order to let me escape!"
Yu Sheng finally understood where the other party's hatred came from, they should be the same as Su Yuan, in order to hurry to celebrate the birthday of the worry-free ancestor, they took the risk of taking this shortcut, but they encountered the ghost cultivator who came out of nowhere, leaving only Huo Yan alone...... Speaking of which, this worry-free ancestor is not a fuel-efficient lamp, this big birthday has not even begun, and it has already caused so much right and wrong, I don't know what the worry-free ancestor should think when he knows that Yusheng sees himself like this.
However, from Huo Yan's mouth, Yusheng came to a conclusion, that is, their current location is on the periphery of the Burial Soul Ridge, and I believe that no matter how stupid the head of the Huo family is, it is impossible to take everyone to the hinterland of the Burial Soul Ridge.
"People will eventually die, girl, please mourn and change!" Yu Sheng thought about it, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only say a word of comfort.
Huo Yan lowered his head and was silent, and the anger between the two eased a lot, but fortunately, this territory full of soul flowers was not very large, and the two of them had a thrilling time, and the person who controlled the corpse puppet did not chase after him.
After the Soul Pulling Flower Slope, the two finally arrived at a place that looked normal, surrounded by an endless plain, but dead silence will always be the main tone in the Soul Burial Ridge, and gray is the main color, this so-called "normal" is only relative to the previous two places, compared to the bright sun of the outside world, this place is still chilling.
"It's foggy...... Huo Yan looked up at the sky, his eyes were solemn, and then turned to Yu Sheng and said: "We will repair here, and we will leave when the fog clears, if you hear any sound, don't speak, let alone reply, just meditate!"
Yu Sheng nodded quite happily, and did not ask why, but took out the array flag and threw it in all directions, and then sat cross-legged on the ground.
Huo Yan stared at Yu Sheng with a pair of smart eyes, and suddenly asked, "Do you still know the formation?"
"I understand a little. "Yusheng is rare to be modest, but since he saw the many prohibitions here, he also has to be humble, he has always thought that his deduction ability is outstanding, and the formation has some attainments, but this trip to the Soul Burial Ridge, he felt his insignificance.
Huo Yan stretched his neck and looked around and asked, "Then do you know the legend of the Eight Forbiddens of the Ancient World?"
"Haven't heard of the Eight Forbiddens of the Ancients!"
Yu Sheng replied very simply, after all, the ancient eight prohibitions that came out of the other party's mouth were only from the Dragon Realm, and he came from the Amazing Small Realm, so he naturally didn't know, but he was very interested.
Huo Yan thought for a while, lowered his voice and said, "It is said that there are eight prohibitions in ancient times, and one of them is hidden here, and I don't know if it's true or not?"
When Yu Sheng heard this, his interest became even stronger: "I don't know what is so powerful about the eight forbidden ancient times?"
Huo Yan didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said in 1510: "It is said that in ancient times, if you have one, you can have the ability to move mountains and seas, and if you get all the eight prohibitions, you can break through the void and fly straight to the heavenly realm!"
Yu Sheng opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say what he had in his heart, legends are always legends, and there are many exaggerated ingredients, just take the other party's sentence that you can move mountains and seas, which is full of loopholes.
No matter how powerful the exercises are, maybe the winner is talented, cultivating immortals is by no means able to soar in the day by day just by hard work, take Yusheng himself as an example, there is no spiritual root, and if you want to become an immortal by cultivating step by step, it is a fool's dream.
Things are good things, but you also have to see who the people are, and the same things must play different roles in the hands of different people, which is a natural law that cannot be violated.
As for breaking through the void and flying straight to the heavenly realm, it is a joke at all, there may be shortcuts to cultivating immortals, but it is by no means the kind of shortcut to ascending to the sky in one step, even if you ascend to the sky in one step, then what will happen? If there is an immortal realm, it is not a recognition of people and bullying?
Seeing Yu Sheng's performance so bland, Huo Yan was a little puzzled, you know, when she first heard this rumor, she was excited for several days, and Yu Sheng's expression didn't seem to be pretending, even if she said it now, she was still a little excited.
"I heard that if you want to master the Eight Forbiddens of the Ancients, you must first master the formation patterns...... It's a pity that the formation pattern inheritance has long since disappeared, and even if you get the eight prohibitions, it may not be useful......" Huo Yan's expression was a little gloomy, and it could be seen that this woman was very interested in the formation.
Speaking unintentionally, the listener is intentional, Yu Sheng is extremely sensitive to the word "formation", especially after getting the map of Weiguo Zhenjun......
"Is the formation pattern really gone?" Yu Sheng couldn't help but ask.
Huo Yan looked at Yu Sheng strangely: "Of course, but there seems to be a person who got the inheritance of the formation pattern thousands of years ago, and then that person disappeared, and it is rumored that he came to the Soul Burial Ridge before he sat down......"
Saying this, Huo Yan's eyes suddenly lit up: "If the rumors are true, then there is a legend of the Eight Forbidden Ancient Places here, could it be related to this person?!"
