Chapter 7: The Purple-robed Man
There was no cloud, and the sun, which had been obscured, was completely exposed to the sky over Liuli Island at this time.
A wisp of colorful xia clothes quietly appeared, connecting on both sides of the glass island.
The island was in shambles, as far as the eye could see, and only a few willow trees were still standing, and the side of one of them, which was estimated to be 100 years old, suddenly changed.
On the land a few distances from the abbot in front of the old wood, the air distorted, and a vague purple phantom appeared, but after a few breaths, the phantom condensed.
This was a middle-aged man in a purple robe with a dark complexion, and a look of surprise flashed on Gu Jing Wubo's face at this time.
"It's... Demon Slayer's Soul Talisman. ”
The branches and buds above the old tree, as the middle-aged man's words fell, the green branches and leaves withered rapidly, and the rune paper hidden in the branches and leaves gradually revealed its true face.
There is still spiritual light flowing on the rune paper, and there are several lines of different shades on the surface that are constantly distorting, sometimes turning into a 'fairy' character, sometimes turning into a 'demon' character.
"I didn't expect that the soul talisman that had disappeared for thousands of years appeared on this island in the southern region, and the remnant spirit inside was awakened by a junior. ”
The rune paper was summoned by the purple-robed man in the air, and it was quietly suspended three feet away from the man's eyes.
"A tengu who has been practicing for nine thousand years. ”
"Seven thousand years of Taoism of Lushu. ”
"A tiger Jiao who has been walking for 7,000 years. ”
"Eight hundred years of Taoist Gu carving. ”
......
Constantly sweeping the remnants of the talisman paper, their memories of life were also opened, imprinted in the eyes of the purple-robed man.
The purple-robed man's face gradually showed an interested look.
"Huh?" the man seemed to have noticed something, stretched out his left index finger and swiped lightly from the surface of the rune paper.
I saw that a soul body only the size of a thumb was pulled out by the purple-robed man, and was gently grasped by his left hand.
The soul body is Lao Hua, at this time, his eyes are closed, his translucent body is shrunk into a ball, and there is a cyan pocket robe in his body that constantly emits wisps of smoke, circulating along Lao Hua's limbs.
"It seems that this person is the junior who awakened the remnant spirit," the purple-robed man said with a smile, "The soul is protected by the magic weapon refined by an infant junior, look at his soul body... The flesh has been reshaped, but it has been shattered. ”
Staring at the old Hua soul body in his hand, the purple-robed man thought for a while, as if he had decided something, the lines in the palm of his left hand gradually opened and closed, and several wisps of black fireworks appeared from it.
"It's also a meritorious service, allowing me to find the Soul Locking Talisman. ”
The fireworks in the purple-robed man's palm burst out violently at this time, and they continued to burn Lao Hua's soul.
With the movements of the purple-robed man, Lao Hua's soul body gradually grew, and the dead qi left on it was constantly dispersed by the black fireworks.
At this time, if you look down at the entire glazed island from above, the cracked peaks and collapsed broken trees are constantly recovering their original appearance like going back in time!
......
At the other end of the southern boundary, thousands of miles away from Liuli Island, there was a city made of dark golden black iron.
The roofs of every building in the city are pyramidal, and the streets outside are sparsely populated with people in fancy costumes, stepping on the ground paved with blood-red stone bricks.
There was a behemoth in the city, rising above the surrounding buildings, and if you look from outside the city, this behemoth is a crimson minaret, and the top of the tower is towering, and from time to time there are flashes of lightning around.
At this moment, in the spire, there was a roar.
"My child!"
The old man dressed in a red imperial robe and crowned on his head was furious, and his trembling and wrinkled hands were holding the spirit card that had been cracked into a pile of pieces.
The old man's face was full of disbelief, and his cloudy eyes bloomed with a breathtaking electric light from time to time.
And he was sitting on a chair made of the bones of countless strange beasts, and in front of him there were hundreds of prostrate figures on the ground, and the wax lamps hanging on the surrounding walls flickered on and flickered.
It was a huge stone chamber, and the figure prostrate on the ground, as well as the old man, gave people an extremely strange feeling.
"Which evil beast killed my child?"
The old man's breath suddenly became chaotic, and he kept coughing, until a mouthful of thick blood coughed up and fell on the stone bricks on the ground, burning through in a blink of an eye, and the rising green smoke made dozens of prostrate figures in front of the old man bury their heads lower.
When the old man stopped coughing, he stood up suddenly, and threw out the dozens of spirit card fragments in his hand.
"My brother, and sixteen other spiritual servants, were also killed. ”
With a heavy gasp, the old man's hands formed handprints and struck at the debris on the ground.
I saw countless rubbles spinning on the ground, and within a few breaths, they turned into powder.
"Phantom Colossus, lend your eyes. ”
Hundreds of figures prostrate on the ground immediately stood up a scrawny gray-clothed young man, and hurriedly ran to the powdered stone bricks in the place.
Without waiting for the old man to continue to speak, the gray-clothed young man pounced, knelt heavily on the stone bricks, stretched out his left hand, and slammed into his eyes without hesitation!
The bloody eyeballs were gouged out by the gray-clothed young man himself, and he held an eyeball in his left and right hands.
Facing the position of the powder, the gray-clothed young man first blew out a puff of green smoke from his mouth, and the countless powders were rolled over, and then he picked up the eyeballs in his hand and let the powder be collected into his eyes.
Suddenly, his eyes trembled, and a shadow of light was projected, forming a door in front of the old man.
The scenes that the old man saw before his death were reflected in the door.
"Who am I, isn't this the medicine elder who gave Xiao Pian Gu poison?"
"Capture you alive and sacrifice it to the Bian family, you can get a lot of benefits, right?"
......
As the screening continued, the old man saw that his child was blown away by the burst of qi from a young man's robe.
In the last scene of the young man in gorgeous clothes, countless flames were filled in front of him, and he could vaguely see a black-robed man with scales on his neck hugging him.
This scene came to an abrupt end, and the door formed by the light and shadow slowly spread out at this time, and finally disappeared.
Two lines of tears flowed from the old man's eyes, and his only child was burned by the flames, and there was no possibility of resurrection.
"Yao Lao, and the magic weapon that has the power of a real person in the infantile transformation period..."
Firmly remembering these two clues, the old man tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and his reluctance to give up on the child.
"All Faeries obey orders!"
The old man's majestic voice sounded in the stone room, and the hundreds of figures who had been prostrate on the ground instantly raised their heads and looked at the leader of the fairy spirit clan in unison.
"Give me whatever it takes, find this evil animal named Yao Lao, and sacrifice the sky for my son!"
"Let's go, target, Liuli Island!"
......
Liuli Island, next to the old tree, the purple-robed man still maintained the movement of raising his hand.
There didn't seem to be the slightest change, the purple-robed man didn't even blink, his eyes kept staring at the Lao Hua soul body in his palm.
And everywhere around him, there have been earth-shaking changes.
The towering trees are growing with extremely dense branches and leaves, the bare soil has countless flowers and plants, competing to break through the soil, and the peaks in the distance are more majestic and magnificent than before.
Liuli Island seems to have been rejuvenated, and there is no trace of the previous flood damage.
"Collect!" The fireworks from the purple-robed man's palm were instantly annihilated, and the soul body inside was gradually revealed in the man's field of vision.
I saw that the soul body had been condensed in nine points, and the body had undergone earth-shaking changes.
A handsome young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, full of vitality, his white and tender carcass was full of brilliance, and his long black and bright hair was casually draped over his shoulders.
At this time, he closed his eyes tightly and floated quietly above the palm of the purple-robed man.
"Perfect," the purple-robed man seemed extremely satisfied with the work he had created with his own hands, "In the past 10,000 years, I have been defeated countless times in the competition with you, and this ability of the Nirvana soul is much better than yours." ”
Without further ado, the purple-robed man raised his other hand with a hint of a smile on his face, and his five fingers flexed into the shape of a bird, and nodded at the handsome young man's forehead.
"Nirvana!" the man shouted violently, and the five fingers on his forehead suddenly rose countless black and white filaments, which poured into the young man's eyebrows.
After five breaths, the young man's body gradually solidified with the influx of countless filaments.
Lao Hua also slowly opened his eyes at this time.
"I'm here... Where?"
Lao Hua was very puzzled, he had already activated the ancient spirit rune with the heart of death, and he had to drag a few people on his back to say anything.
But in front of you, the soil, trees, and distant lakes of Liuli Island are very clearly presented.
And the strange man who stared at him in front of him, with a smile on his face, all explained...
"Am I alive again?"
A feeling of joy or sadness in his heart made Lao Hua silent, he still couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, and he couldn't believe that he had been rescued after dying twice in a row.
After a while, Lao Hua, who was about to speak, found that he was... The proportions of the body shape are not quite right.
Looking down, a crystal clear pocket earthworm was quietly fitting under his crotch.
Lao Hua was shocked, hurriedly raised his arm as thick as a rope, clenched his fist and hammered it against the unknown thing under his crotch.
"Ahh
With an extremely miserable scream, Lao Hua spasmed in pain, and his trembling body rolled off the purple-robed man's palm with a "snap" and fell heavily to the ground.
The purple-robed man was stunned, looking at the young man who was rolling on the ground, as if he regretted a little, he shouldn't have resurrected him...
"That's enough!" the purple-robed man grabbed Lao Hua in his hand and moved it in front of him.
"Your body has been shattered by the Soul Talisman, and your soul has been sucked into the Talisman. ”
When Lao Hua heard this, his swaying body finally stopped and looked at the man in front of him.
"There are ninety-nine remnant spirits in the spirit rune, if you hadn't been discovered by me, you should have been devoured by the remnant spirits inside. ”
"Now I have cast a spell to rescue you and have made a new body for you. ”
After speaking, the purple-robed man stopped speaking and quietly waited for the young man's response.
Lao Hua was also silent, but his mind turned rapidly, analyzing the information revealed by the purple-robed man.
"This person is supposed to be from an ancient site I broke into years ago. ”
"The dried corpse inside the coffin is holding the ancient spirit talisman in his hand. ”
"Could it be that after I activated that rune, the dried corpse was also resurrected?"
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't think of why, so he simply knelt down on the ground and looked at the condescending figure in front of him with gratitude.
"I, Zhang Dahua, am willing to serve my lord to the death, just to repay the kindness that saved me!"
"Oh?" the purple-robed man was also very satisfied with the young man's reaction when he heard this, "This spirit lock talisman has been carried on you for more than ten years, and your soul body has already been imprinted with this talisman. ”
Lao Hua didn't know why, and said loudly: "Please give me more advice." ”
The purple-robed man then spoke: "You must not leave this spirit rune ten zhang away, otherwise the soul body will burn in an instant, and in less than half a burnt of incense, even I will not be able to save you." ”
After speaking, the purple-robed man flicked his fingers.
Lao Hua was suddenly bounced up by a strong qi and was carried into the air.
"Ahh
However, in half a breath, Lao Hua's body that was thrown into the air was pulled down again, and he was grabbed by the purple-robed man with his bare hands in the blink of an eye.
The fireworks burning on Lao Hua's body disappeared in an instant, and Lao Hua was not substantially harmed, but the pain that pierced his heart and bones made him never dare to forget the purple-robed man's instructions.
When Lao Hua came back to his senses, the purple-robed man suddenly stepped over and stood in the sky.
Lao Hua, who was caught in his hand and couldn't move, looked at the island below that had become a black spot, and his heart was shocked, and he had a little understanding of the terrifying strength of the purple-robed man.
"I need you to go down to the realm and find a woman for me. ”
"You have the breath of a Soul Talisman, and that woman is the refiner of the Soul Talisman. ”
The purple-robed man stepped on a white cloud with his feet at this time, and said slowly to the young man in his hand.
"You have no place to live in the Upper Realm, and you have set up enough enemies to kill you a thousand times. ”
Lao Hua was dumbfounded, what kind of arrangement did the purple-robed man make to let him, an unknown junior, go to the nether realm of the vast sea of people to find a woman who even he couldn't find?
And the subsequent sentence made Lao Hua fall into an ice cave.
"For a hundred years, if you don't bring that woman, you won't be allowed to ascend to the upper realm. ”
