Ghost Li stared at the golden bottle for a long time, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't speak, and under the vague and fierce gaze of the ghost bottle, the golden bottle seemed to be doing nothing, and he didn't feel that his words at this moment were inappropriate, and looked at the ghost Li with a smile.

In the Xuanhuo Altar, there was silence for a while. The monkey Xiao Ash, who was lying on the shoulder of the ghost, seemed to dislike this atmosphere, moved his body, "squeaked" twice, jumped off the shoulder of his master and fell to the ground, looked around for a moment, and then walked to the side by himself, and slowly walked to the Xuanhuo altar zhōngyāng that carved countless red sè fierce gods.

Ghost Li slowly retracted his gaze, looked at Xiao Ash, who was lying on the ground with great interest and grimacing at those fierce god patterns, and said slowly: "So, you know a lot?"

Jin Bei'er smiled slightly, the smile was as warm as the chūn wind, gently swept over the cold hall, and said: "I am a little weak woman, where can I know something, but I have been fortunate to go to a few places in the past, and I have been valued by the Sect Master of the Ghost King, so I have come to help you." ”

She pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't think about it!"

Ghost Li frowned and was silent, not to mention the faint disturbing flattery in the coquettish voice of the golden bottle, after thinking for a while, he seemed to have suddenly forgotten why the golden bottle suddenly appeared here, and also forgot the mysterious trace of weirdness shrouded in the golden bottle and even the ghost king, and only said lightly: "Since this is the case, I will ask you for advice." ”

Jin Bei'er's eyes flashed, but the smile on his face was still charming, and he said, "Childe, please speak." ”

The ghost said: "It seems that you arrived here before me, as you said, it is said that if you want to suppress the beast god, you have to have the 'Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array' here, but I am stupid and dull, I can't understand it, I don't know what the golden girl has to understand?"

Jin Bei'er shook his head, and there seemed to be a wry smile on his face, and said, "I won't tell you, in fact, I have been here here at the Xuanhuo Altar for three years, but I have found nothing, except for these messy images engraved on the ground, I have not found anything." ”

Ghost Li's eyes unexpectedly looked at the dark red pattern under his feet, different from the golden bottle, including Xiao Ash, he had personally experienced the power of the strange magic circle in this Xuanhuo Altar, when rì's overwhelming power like mountains and seas, and the terrifying red flame beast, were by no means memories that could be forgotten. Maybe it's because of this that Xiao Ash threw himself on the ground with so much interest, grabbing here and moving there, and seemed to be looking for something?

Could it be that after that earth-shattering mutation, volcanic lava rushed out of the sky, and the magic circle here was destroyed?

After pondering for a while, he looked at the golden bottle again, and said, "Golden girl, no matter what, this is the only place we know that has the 'Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array', since it is indispensable to suppress the beast god, then we might as well stay here a little longer, maybe there is a little hope." ”

Jin Bei'er smiled, with infinite style, and said, "Okay." ”

Ghost Li glanced at her, then retracted his gaze, and sat down again in front of these ground magic circle carvings, and after a while, a faint fragrance wafted in, and where his clothes were frivolous, it was the golden bottle that also sat down not far from him, and the distance between the two seemed to be closer.

The ghost frowned, stopped talking, and didn't look at the beauty of the world beside him, but only stared at this picture, but somehow, in his heart, another thought suddenly came to mind:

When Rì Xiaobai said that he was going to southern Xinjiang to find the formula of the 'Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array', but there was no news of her for a long time, I don't know what happened to her now;

Is she okay

This thought, in the next few years, flashed in the ghostly mind from time to time.

※※※

It's just that it seems that when the magma eruption that soared into the sky, the damage caused was still unexpected, although the fierce stone carvings on the ground looked quite intact, but obviously there was no longer the aura contained in it, or the aura with great power, and now what was left was just a dull stone carving image.

Ghost Li and Jin Zhu'er secretly pondered and comprehended in the Xuanhuo Altar for a full seven years, but still got nothing. During this period, disciples from the Incense Valley came in from time to time to check, and on several occasions Shangguan Ce even personally brought people over for routine inspections, but now the ghosts of Rì, including the Golden Bottle, have already entered the Dao and only hid in the dark above the Xuanhuo Altar, so they easily evaded these searches.

It's just that I still don't know the essentials of the magic circle, but it's a real headache.

At this time, the two of them sat in front of these stiff and rigid stone carvings for a morning, and suddenly, the golden bottle stretched her waist, and her slender waist looked like a demon snake body, which had the smell of seducting people's souls. Helplessly, the only man beside her at this moment still stared intently at the stone carvings on the ground, thinking hard, and did not notice the graceful performance of the golden bottle at all.

Jin Bei'er snorted lightly and glared at the ghost, as if there was a trace of complicated feelings in his eyes, but it was only a flash. After a moment, she sighed and said, "Do you see something?"

The ghost moved his body, and then he slowly came back to his senses, turned his head to look at the golden bottle, shook his head, and said, "What about you?"

Jin Bei'er smiled bitterly and didn't answer, but Ghost Li already understood.

Jin Zhu'er frowned and said, "We've been watching these ghosts here for seven days. Among these seven rì, we do our best, but don't say that activating this magic circle is even touching some stone carvings, what is going on?"

Ghost Li pondered for a moment, looked up at the darkness above, and said, "When I was here to save people, I touched the mechanism in this hall, and the Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array was immediately triggered. But," he said, glancing toward the hall of the palace, with a strange flavor in his tone, "But the mechanism is now gone." ”

Jin Bei'er followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw a small raised stone platform in the hall of the palace, but the stones there were charred and blackened, solidified into an ugly mass, and there was some ingenious mechanism.

In fact, as soon as Ghost Li came here and saw this scene, he knew that when Rì came here for the first time, the strange stone mechanism he saw had been destroyed, and the last time he came to see those fierce stone carvings on the ground, he couldn't feel the violent aura in his heart in his heart.

This once horrible stone carving has become a dead thing.

The two of them fell into silence for a while, not knowing what to say, after a while, Jin Bei'er seemed to think of something, raised his head and just opened his mouth to speak, suddenly his face changed, and the ghost's brows were already wrinkled, suddenly turned around, and in the blink of an eye, he swept to the side of Xiao Ash, who was playing on the side, picked up the monkey, and then his figure floated, and after a while, he had disappeared into the darkness above the Xuanhuo Altar Palace.

The golden bottle watched his figure disappear into the darkness three times and twice, smiled slightly, and then floated up, also disappearing into the darkness.

A moment later, there was a "squeak", and a dull sound echoed in the hall of the Xuanhuo Altar.

The door was opened

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, and it sounded like there were quite a few people, but there was a majestic voice faintly from among them, and after saying a few words, it suddenly fell silent. Immediately, through the open door, three people walked in.

The first person was Yun Yilan, the valley master of Incense Valley, and the one who followed him to the right of half of his body was his junior disciple Shangguan Ce, and the last person, who was a few steps away from the two people in front, was Yun Yilan's proud disciple Li Xun.

After the three of them walked into the Xuanhuo Altar, Li Xun, who was walking last, turned around and closed the heavy door, and the original light was immediately separated from the house, only the dimness flickered slowly here.

※※※

Having lost the spiritual power of the formation that had been there, the three layers above the original cold Xuanhuo Altar had long since lost that bitter cold, and all that remained was the indifference of the huge and hard rocks. In the darkness, Ghost Li and the Golden Vase silently passed through the dark hole of Guò, looking down in the darkness.

seems to know that this time is not as good as before, and the always active little gray seems to be much quieter, and honestly lies beside his master.

Yun Yilan and Shangguan Ce slowly walked to the Xuanhuo Altar zhōngyāng, standing on top of the former Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array, and looking at it from a distance, his face seemed to be shrouded in yīn shadows.

The three people below stood there, silent for a long time, and did not speak, and the atmosphere was faintly strange. And above their heads, the ghost seemed to be aware of it, and glanced at the golden bottle, but just happened to see that the golden bottle also looked at himself. Both of them saw the slight confusion in each other's eyes.

Yun Yilan seemed to have a calm face, maybe his mood should have been like this, who was changed, seeing that the foundation he had been operating for many years had become like this, I was afraid that he was in a bad mood. It's just that his face seems to have no expression at first glance, and after looking at it for a long time, it gives people a vaguely ever-changing feeling, but if you look closely, you will find that his face has never changed, what has changed is just your mind.

At least, when rì is in the section of Qingyun Mountain, the people of the world will not see his expression.

For a long time, Yun Yilan's wandering gaze kept moving on the strange red stone carvings on the Xuanhuo altar, from one end to the other, from one to the other, and then he slowly walked to the small charred raised stone platform of the stone carving zhōngyāng, stretched out his palm, and gently stroked the stone.

"How long has it been?" Yun Yilan suddenly spoke, and asked such a sentence in a low voice.

Shangguan Ce was standing beside him, seeing that his expression did not show surprise because of Yun Yilan's sudden question, obviously he seemed to know some things, but he didn't mean to answer, but very strangely, he turned his head and glanced at Li Xun, who was standing three steps behind the two of them.

Li Xun's head was lowered slightly, his expression was respectful, his eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't say a word.

didn't look back, but Yun Yilan seemed to know what was going on behind her, and said lightly: "Xun'er is not an outsider, he will also take over the Incense Valley in the future, don't hide these things from him." ”

Shangguan Ce's body shook slightly, then calmed down, was silent for a moment, and said, "It has been a full thirty days since the official summoning was prepared, and the 'Red Flame Mingzun' has not responded. ”

Yun Yilan's face did not change in the slightest, at most his eyes flashed a few times, but it gave people the feeling that he had sunk a little more in an instant. And above the Xuanhuo Altar, Ghost Li's heart moved, not that he was surprised that the Incense Valley was also suffering from the inability to repair this strange magic array, but that Shangguan Ce Shicai mentioned the so-called "Red Flame Mingzun", but it touched a place in the depths of his memory, almost subconsciously, he felt what Shangguan Ce was referring to-

That fiery and wild beast wrapped in flames all over its body was the key to this legendary Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Circle with a long history and strange origin?

The atmosphere in the Xuanhuo Altar was a little weird, Yun Yilan's face was not good-looking, she didn't speak, she just paced back and forth in the hall, as if she was thinking about something, and Shangguan Ce just looked at the figure of her senior brother and didn't speak, as for Li Xun, who was standing aside, it seemed that he only maintained a humble posture and didn't say a word.

As time passed, Yun Yilan's brows gradually furrowed, and there was a fierce glint in his eyes, as if something was fiercely fighting in his heart, but finally, he suddenly stopped, took a long breath, and turned his head to look at Shangguan Ce and Li Xun behind him.

Shangguan Ce glanced at Yun Yilan, called out in a low voice, and said, "Senior brother?"

Yun Yilan seemed to have made up her mind, so she didn't hesitate any longer, and said coldly: "Senior Brother Shangguan, I don't need to say much about how important this magic circle is in the Xuanhuo Altar, no matter what, we must restore it, otherwise, we have no other way to deal with him!"

Shangguan Ce nodded and didn't speak, but in the darkness above the heads far away from the three of them, Ghost Li and Jin Zhu'er were shocked at the same time.

He?

Who is he?

Who is the person that Incense Valley wants to use this strange magic circle to deal with?

In the quiet Xuanhuo Altar, what is flowing at this moment seems to be an invisible yīn dark breath. It's just that what Yun Yilan said next made the surrounding yīn dark, and turned into cold ice:

"When the rì lava burst out, the damage to the magic circle was too great, and the spiritual energy that I had absorbed for hundreds of years in the Incense Valley Gate had been exhausted, and I lost the key to the formation, the 'Xuanhuo Jian', so I couldn't summon the Red Flame Ming to respect the Enlightenment Array. Originally, if that person hadn't appeared, it wouldn't have mattered, and we would have sucked in it from scratch, but right now, it's time to use this magic circle in a hurry. Yun Yilan snorted coldly, three deep textures slowly appeared between her eyebrows, the intention of killing was faintly visible, and her voice became more and more indifferent.

Shangguan Ce also frowned, but there was a hint of surprise on his face, and he said, "What, isn't there any other way for Senior Brother to work?"

The corners of Yun Yilan's eyes seemed to twitch slightly, and said: "This magic circle in the Xuanhuo Altar was arranged by the ancestor of this sect according to the records handed down from the 'Incense Burning Jade Book', and at the end of the jade album, there was also an ancestor who wrote down a sentence of commentary, which is to take the risk in view of the embarrassing situation of losing the Xuanhuo Jian and the Xuanhuo Array being unable to activate, and the risky method may be done. ”

Shangguan Ce and Li Xun behind him were stunned, and then they were overjoyed, the "Incense Jade Book" is the supreme treasure of the Incense Valley, and only the owner of the Incense Valley can keep it for enlightenment, Yun Yilan said so, presumably there is really a brilliant ancestor who has left a wonderful method.

Shangguan Cexi said: "Senior brother, what is the wonderful method that the patriarch said?"

Yun Yilan saw the excitement of the two of them in his eyes, but there was not the slightest joy on his face, on the contrary, the meaning of yīn Shen was stronger, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly: "That ancestor wrote at the end of the 'Burning Incense Jade Book': The Xuanhuo Array was born from the anger of heaven and earth, the Red Flame Beast was ferocious and tyrannical, and the spirit inherited by the formation diagram was also the fierce god of the Eight Desolations. ”

Shangguan Ce and Li Xun's faces changed greatly, they looked at each other, and they were speechless for a while.

After a long time, Shangguan Ce barely recovered from his uncertain feelings, and said astringently: "This, is this really written by the ancestor of this sect?"

Yun Yilan snorted and said, "Senior Brother Shangguan, do you suspect that this seat is doing such an evil thing in the name of the Patriarch?"

Shangguan Ce's face changed again, and he hurriedly said: "Don't dare, it's just that the blood sacrifice of this living person is clearly a magic trick, how, how can it appear on the jade book of my sect."

Yun Yilan directly cut off Shangguan Ce's words and said coldly: "You are right, although this ancestor wrote these words, no one has ever tried this method. ”

Shangguan Ce looked at Yun Yilan's gaze towards him, and suddenly felt that his whole body was cold, and he couldn't help but take a step back, and out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Li Xun who was standing behind him, and found that his face was also like earth, unspeakably ugly.

"Senior brother, could it be that you" Shangguan Ce never seemed to speak so hard, "are you going to use this method?"

Yun Yilan raised her eyebrows, not angry, but threatening, and sneered: "What if we don't use this method, what should we do?" We have worked hard for hundreds of years, and we see that great things are about to be accomplished, but there are so many mistakes, and now even the most important magic circle has been destroyed. Do you want me to watch the countless efforts of the past go down the drain?"

Shangguan Ce still seemed to be a little hesitant, and argued: "Senior brother, the big thing is naturally important, and this method is too much."

Yun Yilan coldly interrupted him and said, "Senior Brother Shangguan, you are so persistent, is it because you still have a trace of the understanding of being the righteous path in your heart?

Shangguan Ce was suddenly suffocated.

Yun Yilan's eyes were sharp, as if he was about to insert into the hearts of the people, stared at Shangguan Ce, and said: "Also, Senior Brother Shangguan, when this Xuanhuo Altar is the important place of the main gate, it is guarded by you, but it is in your hands that has caused the evil situation today, do you know?"

Shangguan Ce's body shook and suddenly raised his head, but he saw Yun Yilan's eyes cold, almost like a knife looking at him in front of him, Shangguan Ce's face was excited, his body trembled slightly, as if he had something to say, but somehow, under Yun Yilan's gaze, he finally slowly retreated, and after a while, his face was dejected, and he said in a low voice: "I know." ”

Yun Yilan nodded and said, "In that case, this matter is still handled by you, besides, Xun'er," he turned his head to look at Li Xun.

Li Xun's face was also strange at this moment, and suddenly he heard the call of the master, and his body turned out to be a spirit, and he hurriedly said, "The disciple is here." ”

Yun Yilan glanced at him and said, "You will follow your uncle Shangguan, study hard, and help him by the way." ”

Li Xun's face turned white, and his voice suddenly became hoarse for some reason, but he still said in a low voice: "Yes." ”

Yun Yilan finally looked at the stone carving image on the ground, frowned, turned around and didn't look back, and walked out, leaving only Shangguan Ce and Li Xun face to face.

After a long time, without saying a word, the two people also walked out slowly.

The altar of Xuanhuo fell silent again.

※※※

In midair, a slight sound sounded, and two figures floated gently down from the top. Ash squeaked twice, jumped twice on the ground, and ran to the side to play. At first, it seemed to be interested in the stone carvings on the ground, but after a few days, the monkey was not interested.

After Ghost Li and Jin Bei'er fell to the ground and stood firm, neither of them spoke for a while, and the aura around them was still faintly cold, as if the strange aura emanating from Yun Yilan's body just now still did not subside.

After a while, Jin Bei'er suddenly said, "Who do you think the person they talked about just now will be?"

Ghost Li glanced at her, and asked instead of answering, "What do you think?"

Jin Bei'er smiled slightly and said, "I'm nine points sure, what they are talking about is the beast god." I just listened to what they just said, but I wasn't sure if they knew the whereabouts of the beast god. ”

Ghost Li nodded silently and said, "One more point, the Eight Fierce Xuanhuo Array is in this Xuanhuo Altar, listening to their tone, it seems that they will also use this magic circle to deal with the beast god, do they expect that the beast god will definitely come to this Xuanhuo altar, or can this magic circle be moved?"

The golden bottle moth frowned slightly, obviously there were many joints in it that she couldn't figure out, and fell into deep thought for a while.

Ghost Li's eyes slowly turned, fell on the fierce stone carvings of the fierce gods on the ground, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly sneered, and said: "Is this the so-called righteous way, sacrificing the evil god with the blood of a living person, hehe, it is in the Demon Sect, I have never seen such a thing."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the crisp laughter of the golden bottle beside him, and there was a faint strange tone, like a sneer, like a mockery, and even as if there was a faint and deep fear, and said: "You, how do you know that there is no such thing in our Holy Sect?"

The ghost shook his body, turned his head to look at her, and saw Jin Bei'er smiling, but he had already turned his head away and no longer looked at him. Ghost Li frowned, and said coldly: "What do you mean by this?"

Suddenly, before the last word "thought" in his words could be spoken, the ghost's voice was mute, and in that instant, somehow, he remembered that when the great wizard cast a spell to save Baguio, he asked the ghost king to depict the formation map with blood.

And the Ghost King, almost in the blink of an eye, took out a sufficient amount of blood.

Where did that basin of bloody blood come from?

Ghost Li stood there, only to feel cold all over, and he couldn't speak anymore.

，
