Chapter Seventy-Two: Collecting Essence
Uncle Song's body trembled even more, although after many years, he could still see his sadness and remorse.
"That year, she and I discovered a formation, and inside the formation, what was sealed was an opportunity, an opportunity that made all the monks blush!"
"A chance to become a celestial realm?"
"That's right!
"Spirit?"
"Xiaoyou may not know that what the False Heaven Realm needs to perceive is the Yuan contained in Heaven and Earth! This Yuan is the source of energy, and it can also be called Yuanqi! Just like the Feng Yuan that Xiaoyou perceived, it is the energy of the purest wind in heaven and earth, if you want to reach the Heavenly Realm, you must absorb enough Yuan Qi to make the elixir change, and a piece of essence is enough for ordinary False Heaven Realm monks to step into the Heavenly Realm!"
But at that time, Xiao Lao'er's wife had been pregnant for several months, so Xiao Lao'er wanted to collect the essence and bring it back, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and then find a way to absorb it after the child was born. Unexpectedly, when collecting the essence qi, there was a sudden change, and within the formation, there was also a formation, which was a rare twin formation!
Uncle Song's eyes showed a look of reminiscence, although there was bitterness, but there was no too much excitement, perhaps the regret of the year made him see a lot.
"She came, the two of us inside and outside, and finally opened a gap in the formation, and before we could take a breath, we woke up the snake king who was sleeping at the bottom of the formation! We broke the formation, and we had already consumed most of our spiritual power, and she had just given birth to a child, and she was extremely weak, how could she be the opponent of the snake king! In the end, we burned the elixir and seriously injured the snake king, but she stayed there forever, and the little old man and I, the spiritual power of the whole body was exhausted, and the dantian was abolished, but even her bones could not be recovered."
"Everything is greed, these years, Xiao Lao'er has also figured it out, the dantian is wasted, and it is better to cultivate immortals and immortals, it is better to live a life in peace and stability"
"What kind of essence is that?" After Mr. Song finished speaking, I finally asked the question I wanted to know.
"That's a fire element qi!"
I frowned slightly, "Huo Yuan Essence, I cultivate Feng Yuan, what does Huo Yuan have to do with me?"
"A piece of essence, no matter what kind of essence it is, will make people blush, and what Xiao Lao'er cultivated back then was Huoyuan, otherwise he wouldn't be so desperate to collect it, if Xiaoyou agrees to this deal, Xiao Lao'er promises to tell you all what he realized back then!"
I didn't lose anything about this deal, not only did I have no loss, but it should be regarded as a great benefit. But I didn't dare to agree, not to mention that the snake king, after more than thirty years, how much cultivation has been achieved, it is the person who set up the formation, which makes me a little jealous, and I don't really believe in Uncle Song.
I don't know the formation, but I have also seen some in the Baiyumen Library Pavilion, the formation is extremely complicated and cumbersome, and it is extremely difficult to want the two formations to blend, but they do not affect each other to exert their respective powers, which can be seen from this, the strength of the person who arranged the formation. Moreover, there are only two possibilities for that person to seal the essence there instead of absorbing it, one is that the strength is not enough, and he can't absorb it, for fear of causing people to blush and suffer. The second is to nourish!
If it is the first, then the person who can arrange this kind of formation cannot absorb the essence, which means that his cultivation is not high, but on the contrary. If his cultivation is not high, he can arrange this kind of formation, so after so many years, his growth will be extremely amazing. If it is the second possibility, then it is even more impossible to provoke, the reason why he cultivates this essence can only be because an essence cannot satisfy him, which also shows that his strength was already extremely amazing at that time, so he was not satisfied with an essence, such a strength is not something I can compete with.
Uncle Song seemed to see my concerns, nodded and said, "Don't lose your nature for profit, yes, Xiao Lao'er didn't misunderstand you, and the dog didn't misunderstand you." Little Lao'er knows what you're worried about, but after so many years, no one has collected that essence, and the person who sealed it may be long gone, and after Xiaoyou takes it away, no one will know who did it. That snake king, who was seriously injured and near death, has either died over the years, or can only restore his original false heavenly cultivation. ”
I raised my head and looked at Mr. Song, and he also looked at me calmly. Looking at the dim light in his eyes, after a while, I nodded.
If I take revenge after absorbing that essence, then there will be no regrets in death, and I don't care about the people who set up the array!
"Let's go, let's go back, the place where the essence is located and the method of cracking the formation, Xiao Lao'er will hand it over to you, and when you get the body of Xiao Lao'er's wife, I will help you understand the fire element." ”
When I returned to Dr. Song's house, it was already the middle of the night, and after a while, Mr. Song sent a brief map, and the back was written on the way to crack the formation, I put the map away, looked up at the sky, and when the dawn broke, it was the moment when I left.
I didn't say goodbye to anyone, when Doctor Song and they were still asleep, I had already left, and after comprehending a trace of Feng Yuan, my speed increased several times, and at this moment, I was already hundreds of miles out of Feifu City.
The map that Uncle Song gave me showed that the place where the Fire Yuan Essence Qi was sealed was in Ji Cheng of Chen Kingdom, and Ji Cheng was a little far away from here, and at my speed, it would take several days to go without sleep.
I don't want to delay, so I have been flying for three days before resting once, for the * control of the qi technique, although it is very simple, but it lasts for a long time, it is also more tiring.
After nearly ten days, I finally arrived in Jicheng. Ji City and Flying City are the same size, and roughly speaking, there are more people than Flying City. I didn't go into the city, because in the map that Uncle Song gave me, the place where the Huo Yuan essence was sealed was on a hill outside the city.
When I found the mountain, it was already the end of the sunset, I thought that the person who sealed the essence should be looking for an extremely ordinary mountain, so that it would be more able to hide people's eyes, but I didn't want it to be the highest mountain outside Ji City, and there was a temple on the mountain, the scale was not small, and the incense was relatively prosperous, I glanced at it, it was called the Prison Demon Temple.
I didn't bother to pay attention to this mortal temple, and found the place where the essence was sealed.
In the place where the essence is sealed, on top of a cliff, there is a crooked pine on the cliff, and there is a flat stone under the pine, and when the flat stone advances, a hole appears, and the hole is just enough to accommodate a person. I drilled into the hole, it was pitch black inside, and I looked at the qi technique in my eyes, and suddenly I saw it clearly, the cave was several zhang high, although the stone tip slope was slippery, but it did not affect the walking.
The cave led to the bottom, and I walked down the slope for nearly two hours, but before I could reach the end, and I did not want to explore, until I came to a boulder, and stopped.
Old Master Song said that the sealed place is behind this boulder, and this boulder has been spelled, ordinary people will not pay attention to it at all, and they can't move it, they need blood to guide it, and they can refine it.
On the map that Uncle Song gave me, there was a corner with bloodstains, which was the blood he left behind, this boulder, he had refined, although now his cultivation was lost, but it had no effect at all.
I imprinted the blood of Uncle Song on the stone, the blood had already dried up, but the stone still absorbed a little, and after a moment of "boom", it slowly moved away, revealing a hole half a zhang high.
I bowed down and entered this cave, always on guard, I didn't fully believe in the words of Uncle Song.
The hole in the cave, the light is extremely dim, even if I use the Qi Technique, I can't see it clearly, I walked a few steps carefully, then Song Lao Zhang said, there is a stone lamp here, and it can emit light after merging spiritual power.
After groping for a while, he found a lantern-shaped stone, and after merging with spiritual power, it slowly emitted a soft light.
Under the light, I finally saw this place clearly, and saw clearly the place where the Fire Yuan essence was sealed.
In front of me, there is a place with a radius of dozens of zhang, standing many quaint stone pillars, the stone pillars are not big, not high, just the thickness of the thighs, two zhang to Xu. However, there are a few stone pillars that are very broken, and even only half of them are left, and it seems that this is the corner that the old husband and wife of Song broke at the beginning. But there are no bones here, and perhaps his wife's bones are in the depths of the outer cave, and when I have gained the spirit, I will go in and look for him.
I don't know what kind of formation these stone pillars in front of me are arranged, I only know that the formation is a formation, which generally absorbs the aura of heaven and earth to stabilize itself, and it is not easy to destroy, even if it is forcibly broken for a while, the formation will not be weakened much, unless the cultivation is extremely high, forcibly destroy it completely, or find the formation eye to break it, and the formation eye is the core place, and it is also the starting pen, and the entire formation is based on and developed on it.
Looking at the formation in front of me, I took a deep breath and stepped in.
It was just a few broken stone pillars, but when I took a step, the scene in front of me suddenly changed.
I didn't dare to move, turned my head to look around, surrounded by a vast sea of sand, with no end in sight, the scorching sun hung on my head, the heat was incomparable, I looked around, and suddenly felt dry mouth, unbearable heat, as if I was in a furnace, and quickly ran the spiritual power, but as soon as I ran it, I found that I didn't have the slightest spiritual power at all, and I was now an ordinary mortal.
Mr. Song said behind the map that this first formation is just a phantom formation, as long as you get rid of distracting thoughts, according to the method he said to solve the formation, you can naturally go out.
I have memorized the method of solving the formation, and Mr. Song is afraid that I don't understand the formation, so he writes extremely popularly, three steps to the left, turn to the right, take seven steps, take two steps back, and then go to the right so crookedly and twist for a while, take the last step, the vision collapses, and I am already in the pile of stone pillars, only a jade box in front of me is left, and a seal is attached to the jade box.
I reached out and touched the seal, and suddenly a powerful pressure passed from my fingertips to my body, and with a muffled snort, I quickly let go, and a mouthful of blood pressure was already in my throat. Sure enough, it's an extremely powerful seal!
Uncle Song said, in this jade box, is the essence, as for this seal, he needs to study it carefully before he can open it for me.
Putting the jade box into the Qiankun Ring, I turned my head to look at the pile of stone pillars. According to what Song Laozhang said, the wonderful thing about this twin formation is that it is not another formation arranged in one formation, but this formation is a ring formation, that is, you can enter no matter where you enter, but after entering, you are wrapped in the formation, just like this formation, surrounded by stone pillars, and the middle of this square is safe, and this kind of ring formation, when you enter, it is a formation, and when you go out, it is another formation.
This formation, when you come in, it is a phantom formation, and when you go out, it becomes a killing formation!
Killing formation, I have only entered one killing formation so far, that is, the formation arranged by Deng Lin and Li Chenxi at the time of the desperate valley, although that formation is rough and unbearable, and I broke it with brute force, but it is still a kind of killing formation.
I would like to see if this killing array can kill me. But I'm afraid that if I am killed, I will die unjustly. After hesitating for a moment, I was still ready to go out according to what Mr. Song said.
