Passing through the first gate blocked by countless formation runes, the three of them followed Zhang Xuanwen's steps and kept walking towards the interior of the courtyard.

The whole courtyard seems to have been renovated, with blue and white marble floor tiles laid in it, and there are no green plants planted between the gates, nor are there any insect fish ponds, which seems extremely dead.

At first, there were many servant guards beside the four of them, until they came to the third gate inside the courtyard, and those servant guards all stopped and sent the four of them into the core of the courtyard.

After a little observation, Mo Chen found that the blue-white marble floor tiles under his feet had also faintly turned into a faint gray-black at this time, and they were still gradually deepening as they continued to deepen, looking weird and depressing.

"Speaking of which, my father and the elders of the clan, and even the entire City Lord's Mansion are very fond of my sister. From birth to infection, except for the penance she asked for, she has never suffered at all, but she didn't expect that the world is impermanent, and she will be stained by black magic spirits......" Zhang Xuanwen led the three of them, sighing as he walked.

"My sister has become more and more serious due to the infection of the black demon spirit during this time, and she has become confused and unconscious, so you must do your best when the time comes.

In addition, my cousin is probably in the courtyard at this time, and she has been interested in the flame one recently, and may ask you some questions about the fire one.

At that time, you just need to answer normally, if you are asked about any sect secrets, you can say it directly, and I won't blame you. ”

Zhang Xuanwen paused and thought about it carefully, but still added to the three of them: "My cousin Yang Ying...... In fact, the clan has always wanted to find a master of fire cultivation for her to be a teacher, but few of the elders in the clan are proficient in fire cultivation, so if you can get your cousin's approval this time......

As soon as these words came out, even though Zhang Xuanwen's words were not finished, the old Dao Gu behind him began to shake his head and smile bitterly.

They also don't shy away from Zhang Xuanwen.

Although Zhang Xuanwen turned his back to them, he actually expected this scene.

He didn't get angry, just turned around, nodded at the three, and smiled back a slightly awkward smile.

In fact, Mo Chen has also heard of the situation of Yang Ying in the city lord's mansion.

Recently, when the eldest lady Zhang Yingxue was often in a coma, Yang Ying actually took her place and became the favorite little princess of the entire city lord's mansion.

But this woman is not as good as Zhang Yingxue, in this kind of growth atmosphere, she has been in the sun since she was a child, and she is still interested in everything, but everything is hot for three minutes, resulting in wanting to learn everything, but not learning anything.

This Yang Ying's fame, even if it has a lot of popularity in the high-level circles of the entire Blind City, belongs to the existence that people will walk around wherever they pass by.

In this regard, the City Lord's Mansion has also tried countless times, hoping that she can practice well and improve her strength.

But helplessly, Yang Ying had that domineering and abnormal appearance, and the elders in the clan did not offend her.

So much so that the entire clan spent countless elixirs for her, and after decades of cultivation, Yang Ying barely reached the cultivation of the Spiritual Light Realm.

The speed at which these resources are piled up is really a bit unimpressive.

But even when everyone was sighing, no one could come up with any practical solutions.

Let's not talk about Zhang Yingxue's status and identity in the City Lord's Mansion after she fell into a coma.

is her own father and mother, and she is also a real Wandering Soul Realm powerhouse, and she is one of the top five powerhouses in the clan.

His father married the city advocate Kongtong as a brother of the opposite sex when he was young.

In addition, she is also an old woman, so no matter how the outside world judges her daughter, the couple still spoils her very much, which makes the entire City Lord's Mansion also have a headache.

So for becoming Yang Ying's teacher, Mo Chen naturally has no interest.

After hearing what Zhang Xuanwen said, he just followed the old Weng Daogu, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

While talking, everyone had already entered the innermost circular courtyard.

It was a different place than the courtyard they had passed before.

The floor was devoid of marble tiles, and it was replaced with dirt, but the dirt was a little too dark.

In the entire courtyard, there are about a dozen scarlet and blood-supporting giant trees, and the trees bear fruits that beat like hearts, constantly devouring and absorbing the black mist around them.

Ink Dust looked up, and some of the fruits were still scarlet, the same color as the main trunk of the giant tree.

Most of the fruits, as if they had been sucked up, turned completely black.

But these fruits are only a drop in the bucket.

There was still a large amount of black mist that continued to spread from the small cabin in the center of the courtyard, and even erupted from various cracks in the earth.

Zhang Xuanwen took the three of them to a place about ten zhang away from the iron house, stood still, and pointed to a halo-like line on the ground that surrounded the entire wooden house.

"This is the area where the Great Array is blocked, and the three of them only need to purify the black magic spirits that have spread out outside of here. The specific number of purifications will be calculated by a special person, and the three people do not have to worry about their own efforts not being accurate. ”

The hunchbacked old man nodded: "This method is just right, and it also saves us from hurting the eldest lady during the competition." ”

The middle-aged woman and Mochen also agreed.

"Three, if there is no problem, you can try it, right?" Zhang Xuanwen took a few steps back, and said in a deep voice from the scarlet giant tree standing on the side, "Try to purify the overflowing black demon spirits, this is a small test before you are working for the City Lord's Mansion." ”

The three of them looked at each other, and the old man took the lead in stepping forward.

"I'll do it first. With a wave of his hands, a crimson snake dagger and an orange-yellow rune paper slowly appeared in front of him.

He strode to the edge of the blockade array, raised his crimson dagger, and split the entire orange-yellow rune paper painted with snake lines in two, and said something in his mouth.

"Hiss......"

The rune paper split into two and burned in the air, and streams of dark green smoke erupted from the ashes of the rune paper, condensing into a huge python about the size of a few people.

This python has compound eyes, a pair of scarlet snake letters keep spitting out, and if you look closely, you can see a circular miniature circle from above.

"It's up to you. The old man said in a deep voice.

"After this is done, I will increase the number of elixirs by one-fifth every day. The Spirit Fire Serpent replied loudly, lunging straight into the gray mist.

Seeing this, Mo Chen and Dao Gu both retreated a little farther.

I saw a sudden fire erupt from the nimble snake's hyacinth, directly entangled with the surrounding black mist.

Countless hissing sounds rang out, and flames and smoke frantically counteracted each other.

The nimble snake aimed at the smoke-dense area, constantly spewing out a large amount of flames, canceling out the black mist around it.

But everyone could see that under the same volume, two or even three mouthfuls of snake flames could offset a small cloud of black mist.
