Chapter Twenty-Eight: Heavenly Candles and Primers
Jing Yun and the others were silent, feeling deep admiration for the ancestor of the Hua family, after all, not everyone has the courage to jump into the abyss hundreds of zhang high, and he should have been only six or seven years old at that time.
There is a great terror chasing behind, and there is a dead end ahead, any hesitation may be a catastrophe, and to make such a decisive choice, his mind is definitely far from being comparable to his peers.
He asked himself, if he was in such a situation, he might not have the courage to jump, and he couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, it was no accident that he could cultivate and succeed.
"How many people survived that time?" Mu Ya asked as he glanced at the top of the island in horror.
"Nine. Hua Yunxin slowly spit out two words, he couldn't help but regret it a little, but the ancestor's life could not be done, and when he thought of this, his heart suddenly became even more bitter.
"Uh-huh..."
As soon as the words fell, a sound of inhalation suddenly sounded around him.
Where is this Nima almost wiped out, this... Okay! There are still nine people alive, they are almost wiped out, Jing Yun never swears, but when he heard that this was the result, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth in his heart.
"No wonder the sect deliberately concealed this matter, this weirdness is indeed something we can't shake. However, won't anyone from the sect come in to deal with it?" Jing Yun groaned slightly and asked suspiciously.
"I also asked at the time, but the ancestor kept silent about this matter, there should be some secrets involved, and it is not something we can know. Hua Yunxin frowned slightly, and said with some uncertainty.
Jing Yun faintly understood, speaking of which, it was because of his lack of strength and his lack of qualifications to understand the reason, which made his heart to become stronger a little more determined.
However, the Ancestor said something else. Hua Yunxin paused and continued.
"What's the matter?" Mu Ya's anger did not subside, and his tone was still cold.
"It's about why I'm here. Hua Yunxin didn't care, but the remorse in her eyes was stronger.
Jing Yun and the others suddenly thought that after the ancestor of the Hua family had achieved success, he was still thinking about the treasures on the top of the island, but for some reason he couldn't take it himself, so he instructed him to complete the matter.
It's just that for some reason, it has to wait thousands of years before something can be done.
"After the ancestor experienced nine deaths and a lifetime, the heart of seeking the Tao became more urgent, and after continuous hard work, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and the Taoism was finally successful.
But the matter of the Valley of Beasts has always been the biggest doubt in the ancestor's heart, at first when he was not able to complete the Dao Law, he could not access the secrets, until later he read the classics, searched everywhere for verification, and finally came to a conclusion. Hua Yunxin sighed, thinking back to what the ancestor said that day, and was a little stunned for a while.
Jingyun and Mu Ya glanced at each other, and they both saw a strong curiosity in their eyes, but the two tacitly agreed that they did not bother.
Lan Yu, on the other hand, frowned slightly, not knowing what was going on in her heart.
"According to the ancestor's guess, this should be the legendary place of heaven and candle, and that bone knife is a primer. Hua Yunxin raised her head to look at the top of the island, and her eyes revealed a resolute look.
Jing Yun muttered for a while after hearing this, and then turned his head to look at Mu Ya, his eyes were full of inquiry, but seeing his eyebrows furrowed, he lowered his head and thought deeply, he couldn't help but feel helpless.
"Candle shadows?"
At this moment, a sweet voice full of surprise suddenly sounded.
Jing Yun was surprised, I don't know why she, who has always been cold, reacted so much.
Hua Yunxin was also a little surprised, looked at Lan Yu with a shocked face and asked, "You know?"
"Two years ago, I heard my mother accidentally mention that there is only one place in the world where the sky is dead and the candle is yin, but I didn't expect it to be here. Lan Yu put away her surprise and nodded slightly, a look of remembrance appeared in her eyes.
"I want to hear about it. Hua Yunxin bowed to her, and his sincere appearance did not seem to be a fake, and it was obvious that he didn't know the inside story.
"I know only a limited amount of information, the Heavenly Candle Yin is a magical place between heaven and earth, and it is shrouded in an inexplicable aura all day long, this aura is very domineering, but if the spiritual realm in it exceeds the condensation fetus, it will die inexplicably, and there is no reason to find it. However, the aura inside it is strong, but it is mixed with yin and evil energy, which is not suitable for cultivation. As for what else, I don't know. Lan Yu thought for a moment before slowly speaking.
"From this point of view, if this place is really the land of heaven and candles, the demon beast realm here is at most the realm of the Great Perfection of Condensation?" After hearing this, a touch of joy appeared on Mu Ya's face.
"What you just said is that the Heavenly Death Candle Yin is mixed with spirits?" Jingyun's eyes flashed, and he asked suspiciously without waiting for everyone to speak.
According to my mother, it was. Lan Yu saw that his face was a little inappropriate, and after thinking for a while, he nodded.
Jingyun was silent, and there was a faint guess in his heart.
"I remembered one thing. ”
At this time, I only heard a somewhat bitter voice slowly sound.
"Tell me about it. Jing Yun turned his head in surprise.
"At that time, the ancestor said that there was a chance once in 10,000 years. Hua Yunxin frowned and said with some uncertainty.
Everyone was very puzzled by this sentence, and they couldn't think of a reason for it for a while.
Jingyun looked at the top of the island and sighed, thinking that only by climbing here can he understand something!
"Hmph! You tricked us into coming here for the so-called inducer?" Mu Ya snorted coldly, a hint of mockery flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"I didn't lie to you. Hua Yunxin glanced at him and said lightly.
"You really didn't lie to us. What kind of anti-heaven treasure is that introducer, which can make his old man worry about it for thousands of years. Jing Yun gave Mu Ya a look, and then asked seemingly casually.
Mu Ya understood, snorted coldly again, but did not speak again.
"The so-called primer is a leading thing, and there are many uses. There are two kinds of primers, one is conceived by heaven and earth, which is extremely rare.
The other is the refining of the great supernatural powers, which is generally used to store important things because it is not easy to refine. Hua Yunxin had regained his composure at the moment, but his heart was full of shock, obviously his actions were all in his eyes, and he couldn't help but be secretly vigilant.
Something important... Jingyun was silent.
"The trigger is the bone knife, right?!, but why did you tell us so easily?" he moved in his heart, since you want to act, then accompany you to act.
"Alas, what Brother Muya said just now is good, if I hadn't spread rumors, maybe there wouldn't be so many fellow disciples trapped here. Now that the matter has come to this, I do not ask for your forgiveness, but I only want to tell you what I know in order to find a solution. Hua Yunxin sighed, and said quietly on the surface.
"I see. Jing Yun nodded, but there was a sneer in his heart.
"Brother Pastor, look at the top of the island..."
At this moment, a voice of surprise sounded, but I saw a young man who was far stronger than his peers running over in a panic, it was Wang Hu, who was the first to enter this place before.
Jing Yun hurriedly looked up, only to see that the sky was still clear just now, and the sky with an unobstructed view was covered by layers of dark and thick dark clouds.
This dark cloud came very abruptly, without warning, like a trick in the world, appearing out of thin air, very weird.
Then, the inside of the dark clouds rolled in bursts, and there seemed to be thousands of horses galloping, and the rumbling sound of mountains and tsunamis was endless.
This lasted only for the tea time, and then it suddenly stopped, silent, giving the illusion that the previous noise was an auditory hallucination.
And the clouds are more than ten times denser than before.
Under the shrouded black clouds like pot lids, the trees at the edge of the top of the island were a little depressed for a while, as if they couldn't straighten their waists, and they felt a little like the black clouds were about to destroy the city.
"This black cloud is quite strange, and all the vegetation on the island is not spread, not like ordinary spring clouds. Jing Yun looked at the still sunny lake in the distance, and his face was full of solemnity.
"Well, if it's not bad, it's someone who is using great powers. Mu Ya glanced at his fellow door who was approaching him in the dark, and nodded as usual, but there was a trace of fear hidden in his seemingly calm eyes.
Lan Yu, who was standing beside him, was slightly stunned when he saw this, and then walked away with some disgust, and his heart was full of slander......
At the top of the island in the middle of the lake, there is a clearing of about 50 zhang square, and there are a considerable number of stone pillars of different shapes distributed around it.
The surface of the clearing is paved with bluestone, and strangely enough, there are no gaps in the ground, and it looks smooth as a mirror, and it is unusually smooth.
In the middle of the bluestone ground, there is a circular deep pit with a diameter of about one zhang, and there are dents at its edge that stretch out to the surroundings, forming a piece of petals, the petals are fan-shaped, clustered with each other, and are scattered.
If Jingyun is here, he will find that this flower is exactly what Hua Yunxin described, a nine-petal strange flower, but for some reason it was engraved on the ground?
And not far from this nine-petaled strange flower, there is a quaint altar, and on a wide throne at the top of the altar, a figure shrouded in black mist is reclining.
At this moment, a pair of scarlet eyes appeared in the dark shadow, staring boredly ahead, as if waiting for something.
After half a pillar of incense, the sky suddenly darkened without warning, followed by a sound like an iron horse Jingo.
At that moment, the dark shadow on the throne suddenly stood up, its increasingly scarlet eyes staring directly at the deep pit in the center of the flower.
Suddenly, a drop of red blood came out of thin air from the pit, and then another drop, and then, like a flood that had burst its banks, gushed out of it like a stream of blood, and in an instant it was already filled with a small half of the pit.
A quarter of an hour later.
When no more blood gushed out, the blood in the pit was less than a foot away from the ground, and in the mid-air above it, a small snake about nine feet long slowly condensed.
On the top of its head, there are two deer-like horns, and its eyes are frugal but not lost. Some of the thick lips have two long whiskers at the corners, but it is natural to dance without wind. The scales are dense all over the body, like an iron armor and silver helmet, but it is not heavy, and four three-toed phoenix claws stretch out under its abdomen, like copper spears and steel arrows, which are extremely vigorous and powerful, and its appearance is a dragon in ancient legends.
However, this dragon's whole body is blood red, and its body is also slightly illusory, as if it is composed of blood mist.
I saw that it sometimes shook its head and tail, sometimes cheered, sometimes walked up and down, and it looked quite spiritual.
And with each breath of the blood dragon, the smell of blood in the air became a little thicker.
"The blood will transform into a spirit and gather qi into a spirit, it's really an unexpected joy, haha......"
The black shadow looked at the blood dragon above the pit, trembling with excitement, and immediately looked up to the sky and laughed.
Then, a cold light flashed in the black shadow's eyes, and he slowly spit out a few words: "The show is about to begin." ”
Sword Sect
In a majestic hall, a middle-aged man with a face like a heavy jujube sat cross-legged, this person was the Sword Sect Sect Leader Ying Wuji.
Suddenly, as if he felt something, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a nearly three-foot-long essence burst out from them, and disappeared.
"It's finally begun. ”
Then, he slowly closed his eyes as if nothing had happened.
In front of a thatched hut, two people sat cross-legged, among them was a man with a jade crown on his head, unusually handsome, but his face was pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and some of them were unwinded.
The other, a middle-aged man wearing a scarf and coarse cloth clothes, like a farmer, was none other than the head of Blood Sword Peak and Zhou Lingtian.
On the lake in front of the thatched hut, the runes were flying and colorful, and the previous long sword and bronze tripod had long since disappeared, leaving only a black and white yin and yang fish slowly rotating in the gossip array in mid-air.
At this time, the man in Mai slowly opened his eyes, calmly looked at the dark clouds that appeared in the lake, and said to himself: "Whether it is worth it or not, you will only know if you do it." ”
For a while, there was a feeling everywhere that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.
However, these are inconsequential things for Jingyun.
What he is most urgent at present is to pass the later trials first, and he doesn't bother to think about life and death, intrigues, and intrigues.
After all, if you can't get past that level in three days, even if you know the truth, what can you do? At most, you can go to Huangquan Road and become a ghost.
Thinking of this, he found a relatively quiet corner and began to consolidate the realm, letting it be overwhelmed by black clouds and the sky was dark, as long as his eyes were closed, it was not a thing.
In such an atmosphere, there are not many people who can think like this and do this, but in addition to Jingyun, there is one person who is still more than that, and this person is Xu Budong.
The so-called things gather by like, people by groups, and the ancients were honest and did not deceive me.
At this time, Xu Budong was sleeping at the edge of the black square, only to see him raise one hand high, his fat body on his side, and the whole person was attached to the transparent shield......
The short-haired boy was sitting cross-legged not far away, racing against time to cultivate, and the panic and uneasiness around him could not cause him to be distracted at all.
In the black square to the north, a pair of twin teenagers were discussing something with ugly faces, and around them were a group of teenagers and girls in bloody robes, all of them pale and terrified.
Then, the more mature teenager in the twins said something in a loud voice, and the crowd gradually quieted down.
The young man sighed and sat down cross-legged on the spot, and the others, though they were also uneasy, sat down in turn according to their fears.
The cacophony faded away, leaving only the faint sound of breathing.
The same scene was being played out at the same time in four identical and different squares, and the entire island in the middle of the lake lost these sounds, and it was a little scary to be quiet for a while.
The dark clouds above the top of the island were as black as the bottom of a pot, and the island was dark and unusual, like a silent and uninhabited ghost island, spreading its fangs, ready to devour all the creatures it encountered.
Time flies, and time is like a song.
The black clouds in the sky are writing its own prologue.
The people of the island are singing the battle song of the sword.
Moon by month in the wind, but a light shadow laughs at itself.
The sunny weather after the snow is just a trick of creation.
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
With a roar, the light gate appeared in the four black squares, and nearly three hundred young people and girls were shrouded in starlight at the same time, and suddenly disappeared in the brilliant stars.
At this point, the later trials begin. PS: Celebrate the National Day, 4300 words are presented.
