Chapter 3: The Burning Gate
Incineration Gate, located in an extinct volcano in the south of the Southern Regions, because there are still remnants of magma under its mountain range after the eruption, it was suppressed by the people of Incineration Gate by means, forming a magma river, surrounding the inside and outside of the Incineration Gate, like a spectacle.
The entire mountain range is occupied by the Burning Gate, and there are few other monks coming and going, in addition to the steep terrain, but also because the Burning Gate is full of demon cultivators, and the murderous name alone makes ordinary people easily dare not set foot on it.
Looking at the entire cultivation realm, it is mainly based on the three major cultivation systems of immortal cultivation, demon cultivation, and demon cultivation.
Among the three, the number of demon cultivators is the largest, and the overall strength of immortal cultivation is the strongest, and although demon cultivation is at the bottom in both aspects, its reputation is far above the two, because ordinary monks are still reasonable, and when they meet demon cultivators, they will do it without saying a word, and there are countless monks who die tragically under the hands of demon cultivators because of killing people to seize treasures or competing for cultivation resources.
Cannibalism, sibling warfare, etc. are commonplace.
However, there are exceptions to everything, and this Demon Cultivation Sect Burning Sect, which makes ordinary monks so afraid of it that they dare not set foot easily, welcomed two uninvited guests today......
......
The magma river is staggered on the rocky ground, the two figures above quickly swept by, and the toes on the magma river are like walking on the ground, if you look carefully, you can vaguely see that the two are an old man and a young man, at this moment running all by the power of the old man, and the young man is supported by the old man in his hand.
In a short time, a pillar of fire erupted from the magma river, forming a thick pillar of fire, which was dodged by the old man.
After half pouring incense, the two of them crossed the barrier on the outer edge of the volcano and appeared in front of the mountain.
On the flat mountain wall, a semicircular cave with a width of five zhang unfolds upwards from the feet, as if it was carved by manpower, extending straight into the mountain, standing close and watching, like a deep pitch-black beast with its mouth open, waiting for the prey to automatically step into the belly.
On the mountain wall above the cave, the three dark red characters of the burning gate seem to be coagulated by blood, which is daunting.
On the left and right sides of the cave, there are two huge red stones, uncarved, but densely covered with runes, like two door gods guarding the entrance of the Burning Gate, even if they are far away, you can still feel a scorching power spread out from the stones.
"Lai'er, it's here. ”
The old man stabilized his body in front of the cave, and after letting go of Chu Yi, he stepped forward half a step forward to protect Chu Yi behind him.
"Grandpa, is this what you call a place to live?"
Chu Yi followed the old man all the way, and he saw all the changes around him, plus it was the first time he set foot in this kind of dangerous place that belonged to monks, he couldn't help but be a little worried, and said worriedly: "There are many obstacles to coming in here, and it is safe to be safe, but I always feel that people who live in such areas are not kind people, and I am afraid it is not difficult to get along with them......"
"This Burning Demon Sect is a Demon Cultivation Sect, both inside and outside the sect are Demon Cultivators, of course they are not kind people......" Regarding Chu Yi's worries, the old man could not deny it, and Lang smiled: "However, compared to the unpredictable hearts of immortal cultivators, intrigues, most of the demon cultivators do not like scheming city mansions, and they pay attention to a straight word, kill when they should kill, and surrender when they should ......."
Halfway through speaking, the old man pointed to the bottom of the three big characters of the Burning Demon Gate, and said, "It's like this gate passage, if it is placed in the Immortal Cultivation Sect, the road will definitely be tortuous and winding, but in this Burning Demon Gate, it is extremely straight, leading straight to the inner hall!"
Chu Yi seemed to understand what the old man meant, and thought thoughtfully.
At this point, the old man did not hide it, and said directly: "The cultivation realm is originally respected by the strong, and this truth is a criterion that everyone abides by among demon cultivators, as long as you are a strong person, they are not easy to get along with, and they have to respect you everywhere...... That's why I settled you here!"
"But...... Grandfather...... My realm is only in the late stage of the day after tomorrow, and I am not a strong person. Chu Yi was still faintly worried, and he couldn't understand the old man's approach.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can hold their lives in your hands, you ...... It's the strong!" The old man's tone was indifferent, but it was difficult to hide his domineering.
......
Boom!
After speaking, the old man punched out, and the strong spiritual power rushed towards the door of the dark cave like a giant python, and before it was touched, he saw the red boulder light on both sides flash, and a misty picture scroll that seemed to unfold the holy decree suddenly appeared between the two boulders, and after the old man's power hit it, countless strange shapes and shapes instantly appeared on the misty barrier, buzzing, and it took a while to neutralize the old man's attack in the air.
"It's ...... Fire Attribute Defense Rune ......"
Chu Yi studied day and night, and when he first saw the two stones, he suspected that the stones on the left and the right were runes guarding the door of the cave, and as soon as the runes came out at this moment, Chu Yi's thoughts were confirmed.
"Boy, guessed right, this is the runic method among monks. The old man listened to Chu Yi's opening, and was able to break through the spiritual power attribute of the rune in front of him in one word, thinking that my grandson's cultivation was mediocre, and he could only get started, and he could accurately identify the rune attributes, and break through its defensive power, I don't know if it was by mistake, or if he really had such a talent.
Thinking about it, the old man did not pause in his hand, and continued while bombarding the mountain gate: "Compared with decades ago, these children from the Burning Gate have also grown a little, and the defensive power of the mountain gate runes has increased several times, but ...... It's just going to take a little more time to break it......"
Boom, boom, boom......
The old man's attack was fierce, and the strong power hit the rune barrier like a storm, and each spiritual power set off a shock, and then it was dissolved by the rune culture, and it was dispersed into ripples that were evenly distributed on the huge transparent barrier, like water waves.
The old man's attack is fierce, and the runes are softened and rigid.
Although each blow shook the rune barrier, it failed to break its roots.
"This ......"
Seeing the old man's unruly attack, Chu Yi was stunned, and he froze suddenly, and it took a while to react. I thought that the old man boasted of Haikou, there would be some targeted means to break the runes, elegant and domineering in his gestures, who would have thought that the old man would have such a powerful strength, but he used the method of forcibly breaking it with force, like a crazy old mad dog.
"Grandpa...... You try to hit the plum blossom pattern below the rune next move...... "Chu Yi really couldn't stand it anymore, he observed the rune pattern, and said cautiously.
When the old man heard this, he glanced sideways, only to see Chu Yi's serious expression, his eyes focused on the barrier, as if he was thinking, not like a joke, so he tried to attack according to the direction Chu Yi said.
"Huh~"
After the old man's spiritual power hit the position Chu Yi pointed to, this time, the rune barrier flashed a red light, not as if it was to shake the old man's power first, but "snorted", and it seemed that the corrosive voice remembered, and in the blink of an eye, the rune was penetrated, leaving a round hole the size of a palm.
It took a few breaths for the entire rune power to repair the round hole and slowly close and return to the appearance of going first.
Looking at the old man's blow, Chu Yi's confidence increased greatly, his thoughts flowed rapidly, and his mouth did not stop, and he said the attack position one by one: "Fang Cai's position is a little bit more, followed by the cross pattern in the upper right corner...... The lower five feet and the upper three feet position...... The top of the thickest grain in the middle...... The three blank cores on the upper right...... The left handprint on the top edge ......"
More than a dozen positions on the corresponding rune barrier were taken out by Chu Yi one by one.
A series of positions came out of Chu Yi's mouth, and the old man was surprised, and said in his heart that he didn't understand runes, rather than forcibly breaking it with brute force like this, it was better to try Chu Yi's suggestion, after all, the effective blow just now was made under Chu Yi's command.
Moreover, the old man also had deeper concerns, in case he and Chu Yi dragged in front of the mountain gate for too long, so that the people inside the burning gate would react, it would also cause trouble to the next plan.
At this point, the old man immediately waved his sleeves and shot in turn according to the position Chu Yi said.
The old man's realm is profound, and the spiritual power control is extremely accurate, and every move is accurately hit at the position mentioned by Chu Yi, and then ...... One, two, three, four...... More than a dozen palm-sized black holes appeared on the rune barrier, scattering the night sky like irregular stars.
After the old man's power entered the last position, more than a dozen black holes expanded together, and with the sound of "snorting", they expanded towards the center of the rune barrier, and in the blink of an eye, the center of the barrier was completely corroded, and they were connected together, forming a huge black hole.
The rune barrier, which was originally as fantastical as water waves, is now like a picture scroll with a rotten hole burned out in the middle.
"Let's go, let's go in!"
Seeing that the attack worked, the old man immediately made a decision, lifted Chu Yi's shoulder, and stepped over the broken rune barrier like a gust of wind, and rushed into the entrance of the cave under the three big characters of the Burning Gate.
After the two of them entered, the large hole in the center of the rune barrier slowly closed, nourished by the two stones, and quickly returned to its original appearance.
"Lai'er, how can you understand such a profound rune technique?" Standing up, the old man glanced at the rune barrier behind him, which had been closed as before, and asked Chu Yi very curiously.
Advanced?
Chu Yi pursed his lips undeniably.
The time for him to inherit the Linlang Realm is still short, and it has been less than a year since he was full, if the old man knew that Chu Yi had only just studied a little bit of the way of the formation patterns in the Linlang Realm, and he had barely managed to get started, I am afraid that he would be even more shocked.
Moreover, this time to deal with the mountain protection rune of the Burning Gate, it is the first time that Chu Yi has faced the power of the rune in the real sense, and he is in a hurry, and he has no time to think about it in a hurry to set a method to crack it, if Chu Yi is given enough time to study, the result will not be to temporarily tear a passage on the rune barrier, but to completely break the rune from the root.
However, Chu Yi didn't dare to say this, and after thinking about it, he had to explain vaguely: "Grandpa, Lai'er once met a master who instructed him on the way of runes for a few days, and then studied diligently every day, and today I was lucky enough to see the loopholes in this rune......"
Hearing this, the old man glanced at Chu Yi meaningfully and did not continue to ask.
The rise and fall of each person are accompanied by encounters and secrets, the old man knows this well, so Chu Yi doesn't say it, he won't force him to ask, but just said seriously: "Since you have this opportunity, you have to take advantage of it, don't be lazy!"
After that, the old man's mind moved, and an item appeared on each of his left and right palms.
On the left hand is a palm-sized square silver token.
On the right hand is a golden mask.
