Chapter 42: Extraterrestrial Iron
Bai Ya and Lian Xiao's eyes widened, watching more than a dozen dried corpses slowly walk into the last hundred meters of the road. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When they reach this stage of martial arts, they have more or less produced some "mental awareness" that is beyond the physical body, which is called the sixth sense, or extrasensory perception, in the previous life of Baiya.
Why did Bai Ya hesitate in front of the last section of the road, and Lian Xiao didn't force him again, because both of them had a feeling in the dark, that is, the more than 100 meters in front of them were extremely dangerous, and the probability of death was more than ninety percent.
In normal times, this feeling is almost only produced when the enemy's sword has been handed to the eye, which shows how strong and clear it is.
More than a dozen dried corpses walked extremely slowly, and their movements were stiff, a bit like zombies in Resident Evil. More than 30 meters in front of him flashed by, and Lian Xiao did not lose any of the dry corpses controlled.
But when the two of them were suspicious and suspected that they were feeling wrong, the drastic tactics arranged by the Zhongxing clan in the final stage of the passage finally kicked in.
The scene in front of the two of them seemed to be interrupted for a moment, and the entire space shook slightly, producing a double image.
With a soft sound of "snort", more than 20 criss-crossing black cracks appeared in front, and the more than 100-meter corridor was instantly cut into dozens of irregular space blocks.
"Puff puff~" All the dried corpses were silently cut into several pieces of meat by those black cracks and scattered on the ground. Looking at that kind of fragmented appearance, there should be no way to control it anymore.
"What is this? Even the space has been chopped up...... Bai Ya only felt that his mouth was dry, although he had long known that the danger ahead was abnormal, this method still made him feel shocked.
The sight in front of him reminded him of a demonic ability called the Shock Fruit in an anime in his previous life, which could shatter space into dozens of pieces.
If he hadn't resisted the pressure just now and was forced forward by Lian Xiao, then it is estimated that he would have turned into several pieces of flesh and blood, and this method is by no means something that an artistic conception martial artist can carry.
Those black cracks that could cut through space only appeared for a moment and then disappeared, but the scene just now seemed to still stay in the retinas of the two of them, and could not be dissipated for a long time.
"This ...... This was the result of superimposing more than a dozen short-range teleportation arrays, and those black rifts were spatial cracks created by spatial disorder...... And there is no pattern in the production trajectory!" Lian Xiao's face turned a little pale, biting her lip tightly, and said a little unwillingly.
"This kind of formation trap is extremely difficult, you can't make a mistake at all, there should be a super formation genius in the former Zhongxing clan...... Now we can't get past it unless we run out of energy from those small teleportation arrays. ”
"You mean that there are many short-distance teleportation circles engraved inside the stone wall of Yongdao?" Bai Ya frowned, and a trace of crisis appeared in his heart, "Can you directly destroy the magic circle?"
If Lian Xiao despairs of the treasure, then the two of them will not be far from turning their faces.
"It's difficult, this place is more than 100 meters long, and the stone walls are mixed with special materials. If I do it alone, I'm afraid it will take at least a week. Lian Xiao shook his head, "You can try to find out the energy core of those magic circles......
"There are so many magic circles here, if you want to destroy all the energy cores, I'm afraid it will take a long time, right?" Bai Ya asked suspiciously.
"No, these short-range teleportation circles must be activated at the same time before they can interfere with each other to form spatial rifts, so their energy cores must share the same one. ”
The little witch looked back at the number of dried corpses left behind the corridor, "But to calculate the location of the energy core, with the number of dried corpses left, you have to try your luck......"
"Still, always try...... You stand back, ......" A trace of madness flashed in Lian Xiao's eyes, and with a movement of his fingers, he shot out a line of true qi, and then a dried corpse got up from the ground and staggered towards the front of the road.
A few hours later, Bai Ya looked at the little witch with a wry smile on his face, and the other party's persistence really opened his eyes.
"No, no, it's an inch to the left here......"
At this time, Lian Xiao's hair was scattered, her beautiful eyes were bloodshot, and she sat cross-legged on the ground without any image. In front of her were arrays of dots, lines, patterns, and data, and she scribbled on them with a sharpened shinbone.
Except for the pale shin with a weird painting style, her appearance has subverted the original image of the little witch in the eyes of Bai Ya, and she has become a female mathematician obsessed with science.
"Oh, that girl, sister, sister...... Why don't we eat something first, it's almost a long time......" Bai Ya touched his stomach with a bitter face, he didn't know anything about formations, he couldn't help at all, and he would be bored to death next to him.
Lian Xiao heard the shout and looked back at him, but seeing that her eyes were blank and unfocused, it was obvious that her mind was still on those magic circle formulas.
"I see......" The little witch suddenly had a flash in her eyes, adding a data to the formula in front of her, and her face showed a hint of joy.
"Get out of the way......" She jumped up from the ground, pinched her orchid fingers, and once again manipulated a dried corpse towards the front.
"Poof~" After the dry corpse walked out of more than thirty meters, it hit the street again without accident, but Lian Xiao did not look disappointed this time, but raised his small hand and slapped the top of the road in front of him with a heavenly clutch.
"Bang~" A small crater was blown up on the stone wall at the top of the road, and some gravel fell.
However, as Lian Xiao said before, the stone wall of more than 100 meters of Yongdao is mixed with special materials, which is extremely strong, and the Heavenly Demon Clutche, which could have blasted the boulder into powder, only left a small pit there.
"Hmph, it's quite hard!" Lian Xiao's eyes flashed, and after thinking for a while, he took out the Qingying Sword Pill from Baiya's Divine Hidden Ring and began to use the Sword Pill as a digging tool.
She is not a swordsman, but she can still do it by inputting true qi into the sword pill and controlling the sword pill into a sharp blade.
Originally, it was better to hand over this work to Zhu Yanzi and Mu Zhu, and the "Divine Eye Shock" that came with this pseudo-mysterious artifact was easier to shatter the stone wall.
It's just that there is still the true qi imprint left by the White Cliff on the Zhu Yan Zimu Bead, and the soul in it has long been familiar with the breath of the White Cliff. It's not that easy to change to a person, and it will take at least a while to re-tame.
And on the Qingying Sword Pill, Bai Ya did not have his own mark, he didn't use this thing often, and he originally planned to use it for trading.
However, all high-quality magic weapons commonly used by martial artists, and even high-quality storage tools such as the Divine Hidden Ring, are generally marked with a specific law of true qi, as if they were the combination lock of the safe.
However, no matter what kind of combination lock can only serve as a temporary delay for the thief, it cannot completely stop the theft. Other martial artists can break the original mark little by little by dissipating their true qi.
If the martial arts realm of the martial artist is relatively high and the true qi is more condensed, then there will be more time to delay, such as the storage ring of the innate martial artist, and the artistic conception martial artist will be extremely difficult to open.
There are also some more advanced storage tools, which will have traps embedded inside, and if they are forcibly cracked, they will destroy the stored items. It's like putting a bomb in a safe, and it's usually only set up with storage tools that store special items.
After using the Qingying Sword Pill, Lian Xiao's excavation speed was greatly improved, and he soon dug a large pit nearly two meters deep in the middle of the stone wall at the top of the road, and the little witch was so tired that she was sweating profusely.
"Squeak~" After digging into this position, the sword pill blade, which was controlled by Lian Xiao to rotate rapidly, suddenly burst out a series of dazzling sparks, as if it was the welding scene of an electric welding gun.
"This is ......" Lian Xiao was startled, and controlled the sword pill to clean it up, and a half-buried ball was suddenly revealed in the pit of the stone wall.
The surface of this thing seems to be coated with a layer of black paint, shiny and reflective, but the texture is like iron and non-iron, and at first glance it feels like a big lump of hard and thick, as if it is extremely difficult to cut.
At least the Qing Ying Sword Pill didn't leave any traces on it just now, which showed the hardness of its texture.
"Extraterrestrial Meteorite!" Lian Xiao's eyes widened.
"No, look at its luster, it should be extraterrestrial iron!" Bai Ya narrowed his eyes slightly and added softly.
Extraterrestrial Iron is the highest grade of Extraterrestrial Meteorite Iron, this thing has excellent guidance to True Qi, and the texture is tough and difficult to wear, making it an excellent material for making magic weapons.
Legend has it that during the great fission of heaven and earth, there was a meteor shower under the Shenzhou Empire, and the material that fell to the ground was a high-quality meteorite that had never been seen before.
It's just that after the great fission of heaven and earth, that kind of quality meteorite is basically extinct, and only a small amount of overseas islands are still produced, all of which are fished from the bottom of the sea, so the Xianwu Sect listed the extraterrestrial meteorite of that period separately and called it "extraterrestrial iron".
Whether it is meteoric iron or star iron, its value is very high, and it only takes a few taels to make sword magic weapons, which can greatly improve the sharpness of the sword blade. And although the spherical object in the big pit has not yet been fully revealed, it is obvious that there are more than a few catties and taels.
If it's solid, it's hard to weigh one or two tons.
"Yes, yes, Star Iron, Star Iron...... Wow, it's so big!" Lian Xiao's eyes flashed with stars and her mouth opened wide.
"Ha Lazi is flowing out, wipe it quickly!" Bai Ya looked at her miser's cuteness, and couldn't help but tease in the back.
"Oh, no...... You want to die!" the little witch subconsciously wiped her mouth, but immediately realized that she had been molested, and her face turned red rarely, and she glared at Bai Ya fiercely.
"Hahaha!" Bai Ya couldn't help but laugh.
"Hmph, seeing that Big Brother Bai is smiling so happily, Little Sister will tell you two news first, one good and one bad, which one do you want to hear first?" Lian Xiao's eyes flashed, and soon he smiled like a flower again, and said angrily.
"What good news!" Bai Ya felt a bad premonition in his heart, and touched his nose in disdain.
"The good news is that Xiaomei has found the magic circle energy core here, and it is wrapped in star iron......" Lian Xiao said with a smile.
"Where's the bad news?" Bai Ya's expression froze, he probably guessed what the little witch was going to say next.
"Bad news...... If we can't dissect it, our adventure will have to stop here, and Big Brother Bai will be useless to Little Sister!" the little witch shrugged her shoulders deliberately, and smiled to reveal a mouthful of white and neat teeth.
