Chapter 15: The Fire of the Quartet
The countless small bats summoned by the bat demon flew out of its wings, and immediately stabbed at Yu Fei'er and the three of them like a flying knife. Just when the three of them thought that the rock in front of them could withstand the little bats, the little bats quickly changed direction in the air and flexibly bypassed the rock in front of them and continued to fly towards the three of them.
The trio hurriedly jumped out from behind the rocks, and then scattered in the passage. The few small bats flying in front of them pounced into the air and stabbed at the ground where the three of them had been hiding like arrows off the string, and finally turned into black smoke on the ground. The other small bats that followed them hurriedly controlled their bodies and split into three paths to chase after Yu Fei'er and the three of them in the direction where they had fled.
Seeing that the little bats that hit the ground finally turned into black smoke, the white-bearded old Taoist hurriedly issued a warning: "The two little Taoist priests should be careful, judging from the black smoke emitted by the little bats just now after hitting the ground, these little bats should be turned into poisonous gas, in case they can't be treated in time after being caught, according to the experience of the old Tao, it will be certain death." ”
"Thank you, old gentleman, for the reminder. Yu Fei'er responded to the white-bearded old way while suggesting to Wen Yiyang in the distance: "If you want to completely eliminate these poisonous bats chasing us, fire attack should be the best way Yu Fei'er can think of, I wonder if Brother Yiyang can use your talisman spell to summon a large amount of flames?"
Wen Yiyang replied while avoiding the pursuit of those poisonous bats behind him: "Fire attack is indeed a good way, not only can you quickly remove all these poisonous bats behind you, but you can also use fire to disperse the poisonous gas that these poisonous bats have turned out after they are eliminated." Brother Dao wants a large amount of flames, although it is wrapped in Wen Yiyang's body, I only need to use this fireball above the passage as the center to set up a talisman at the east, west, north, south and north corners of the passage ground. Once all the four runes required for casting the spell were set, Wen Yiyang could cast a spell to draw fire from the fireball at the top of the passage. But now there is a problem in front of Wen Yiyang, that is, we have been walking around this passage for a long time, and now I really can't distinguish the location of the four directions of east, west, north and south. ”
After Yu Fei'er heard Wen Yiyang's problem, she also felt a dilemma in her heart. The three of them had been groping in this dark passage for so long, and they didn't know which direction they were going, and now it was indeed a little difficult to accurately identify the four directions in this passage. Just when the two of them were embarrassed by the inability to locate the direction in the passage, the white-bearded old Taoist spoke: "This is not difficult for the old way, the old way has a thing to carry with him when he gives people divination and treatment, and this thing is born with the ability to accurately specify the direction." ”
As the white-bearded old man said this, he had already felt a piece of Sinan made of magnets from the blanket on his shoulder, and then threw it against the ground. Nasinan spun as soon as it fell to the ground, and when it stopped spinning on the ground, it immediately pointed out a direction in the passage.
Of course, Yu Fei'er knew the role of this Sinan, and after seeing the direction in the passage, he hurriedly cast the technique of resisting the earth and turned into four small stone incense burners in the four directions of the east, west, north and south of the passage ground. Wen Yiyang saw that Yu Fei'er used four small stone incense burners to designate all the four directions in the passage, and hurriedly took out four blank runes from the Qiankun bag and drew four different spells on them with a purple gold cinnabar pen. After all the four runes were made, Wen Yiyang put the four runes into the small stone incense burner in the four directions of east, west, north and south while hiding from the little bat chasing after him.
At this time, in order to avoid the little bats chasing after them, the three of them had to quickly circle between the four small stone incense burners. He thought that Wen Yiyang would immediately cast his fire spell after putting the four talismans in his hand into the small stone incense burner, but unexpectedly, Wen Yiyang did not make any other moves after placing his talismans, just dodging the little bats that kept chasing behind him. Seeing that Wen Yiyang had no intention of casting spells at all, the white-bearded old Taoist couldn't hold back any longer, and asked Wen Yiyang loudly: "Little Taoist, what are you waiting for? If you don't cast spells again, the old man will really not be able to run." ”
Seeing Wen Yiyang blushing and replied: "The situation was urgent just now, Xiao Dao didn't think much about it after listening to Yu Fei'er's fire attack method, but now when it was time to really cast a spell, Xiao Dao suddenly remembered, if we want to destroy these little bats behind us, then we must introduce all of them into this Quartet Fire Formation arranged by Xiao Dao, so that the three of us will also be in this formation of Xiao Dao?" If Xiaodao forcibly casts a spell at this time, although he can destroy all these poisonous bats, the three of us will also be burned to ashes by Xiaodao's fire spell. ”
"This ...... You little Taoist, why didn't you think about it before, and now you think about it. Oops! It looks like these old legs of the old way are going to break here today. The white-bearded old man was already running sweaty and panting at this time, seeing that he would be caught up by the little bats behind him at any time.
Could it be that when Yu Fei'er came up with the idea of using fire to attack, he didn't take into account that the fire spell that Wen Yiyang cast would also hurt himself? Of course not, Yu Fei'er actually took this into account when he came up with this method, so he didn't stop his earth control technique after turning four small stone incense burners in the four directions in the passage, and secretly injected the earth element in his body into the ground while he was dodging the little bats behind him who kept spinning between the four small stone incense burners.
After Yu Fei'er injected all the earth elements in his body into the ground surrounded by four small stone incense burners, he confidently said to the white-bearded old Taoist and Wen Yiyang, "Now all three of us are concentrating directly below the fireball at the top of the passage. After the three of us converge directly below the fireball, Wen Yiyang, you immediately activate your spell, and leave the rest to me. ”
Wen Yiyang reminded Yu Fei'er worriedly: "Brother Dao, you must not know the power of this 'Fire of the Four Directions' spell that Wen Yiyang wants to cast, this spell uses the power of the God of the Four Directions to lead to the fire of heaven and earth, and its flame power is by no means comparable to the ordinary fire in my world." Is Brother Dao really sure that he can stop this 'fire of the four directions' of mine?"
Yu Fei'er didn't think about it and replied directly: "There is no time, is there any other way for Brother Dao now?" If not, then you can only use Yu Fei'er's method to try. After speaking, Yu Fei'er turned his head and reminded the white-bearded old man again: "Old man, you rush to the fireball at the top of the passage to gather directly below what Xiaodao just said. ”
"Yu Fei'er, the power of my spell is really not to be underestimated!" Wen Yiyang repeated again. But at this time, the situation was already ready to be sent, and Wen Yiyang couldn't be allowed to think about it, so he had to say again: "Forget it, let's accompany Brother Dao to take the next risk." With that, he ran under the fireball.
"Little Daoist of Putuo Mountain, are you really sure that your method is feasible?" Whitebeard Old Dao looked even more worried than Wen Yiyang, but when he saw that Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang had already run towards the fireball, Whitebeard Old Dao had to turn around and run towards the fireball as well.
Seeing that the three of them were about to collide directly below the fireball at the top of the passage, Wen Yiyang couldn't help but remind loudly again: "Yu Fei'er, you have to pay attention, I'm going to launch the spell 'Fire of the Four Directions'." Then he quickly recited the incantation: "Heaven and earth are natural, the filth dissipates, the cave is mysterious, the sun is too much, the eight directions are mighty, so that I am natural, the spirit treasure is commanded, the fire is burning the sky, and the divine soldiers are as urgent as the law." ”
As soon as this spell came out, the four talismans that Wen Yiyang had placed in the four small stone incense burners before were immediately activated. As the spells drawn on the rune paper flashed with a red light, four red beams of light burst out from the four small stone incense burners and shot straight at the surface of the fireball at the top of the passage. Under the direct light of four red beams, the fireball at the top of the passage seemed to have gained new energy. As the fireball gradually turned red from the inside out, the surface of the fireball began to glow with red flames. When the red flame on the surface of the fireball burned more and more, a powerful heat suddenly burst out from the inside of the fireball, and then the overwhelming flames pressed down to the ground from top to bottom.
The little bats that were following the three of them saw that they were about to pounce on the three of them, but unexpectedly, a huge wave of fire suddenly rushed down from the top of the passage, and before they could figure out what was going on around them, they were already swallowed up by this sudden wave of fire. Na Wen Yiyang's description of the power of this Quartet Fire spell was not exaggerated at all, and the large amount of poisonous smoke that those little bats had turned into after being burned to ashes was instantly dispelled by the flames of the Quartet Fire. In the face of such a powerful flame, would Yu Fei'er really have the ability to resist it, and what would he do when Wen Yiyang cast the Quartet Fire Spell?
In fact, when Yu Fei'er was reciting the spell and casting the fire spell of the Quartet, he was also casting his own spell. When the four red beams of light in the small stone incense burner hit the fireball at the top of the passage, Yu Fei'er had already formed the fingers of his right hand into a vajra finger technique, and quickly pointed the tips of his right vajra fingers to the ground of the passage before the fireball burst out of the powerful heat in his body, and then cast the "Xuanwu Technique" in the earth control spell. When the overwhelming flames fell from the sky and were about to annihilate the three of them, Yu Fei'er completed her spell in time, and at the same time shouted at Wen Yiyang and Whitebeard Lao Dao: "My Xuanwu technique has been activated, the two of you quickly squat down." As soon as Yu Fei'er's words fell, the ground under his feet quickly arched into a turtle's back, protecting the three of them tightly.
As the flames above the ground receded, a high bulging shield wall made of earth and petrification could be faintly seen on the ground directly below the fireball. After the flames in the passage completely retreated, a voice came from the shield wall: "Solution." The ground that was high up immediately opened up in both directions. As the bulging ground slowly opened, the white-bearded old man coughed and complained inside: "If this fire burns a little longer, the old man will have to suffocate in this earth shield." I said, Little Taoist priest of Putuo Mountain, why can't you make this earth shield bigger? Let the three of us squeeze into such a small earth shield It is hot and stuffy, if the three of us are really suffocated here, according to the old way, we don't even have to dig a grave. ”
Yu Fei'er immediately sneered when she heard this, and replied apologetically: "Old man, you don't know everything. If this Xuanwu technique was performed by those people with extremely high mana, the defensive effect of the earth shield would not be much different regardless of the size of the shield. But Xiao Dao has only cultivated for more than ten years now, and he can't exert the true power of this Xuanwu technique, if Xiao Dao makes this earth shield a little bigger, Xiao Dao is worried that it will not be able to resist the fire of the Quartet summoned by Wen Yiyang, so the old gentleman will still give it a moment. ”
"Since you, a little Taoist, can't unleash the true power of the Xuanwu technique, then why don't you choose to cast your spell at the edge of the flames? Instead, choose the place closest to the fireball to cast your spell? Shouldn't the place closest to the fireball be the most powerful place for the flames?" asked the old man with white beard curiously.
Yu Fei'er replied with great certainty: "Indeed, as the old gentleman guessed, directly below this fireball is the place where the power of the fire spell of the four directions is relatively small, and the edge of the four small stone incense burners connecting the east, west, north and south is the place where the power of this spell is strongest. ”
"Could it be that Brother Dao already knew the mystery of this spell before Wen Yiyang cast the Fire of the Four Directions, otherwise how could Brother Dao have such a clear grasp of the power distribution points in the Fire of the Four Directions spell?" Wen Yiyang was very surprised after hearing Yu Fei'er's precise answer, and couldn't help but interject and ask.
"The fire of the four directions is the secret technique of the Fu Gong Sect, where will the disciples of Putuo Mountain know the mystery of this spell. As for how Yu Fei'er knew about the distribution of this spell before Brother Dao cast it, it had to start with an accidental discovery of Yu Fei'er when he was practicing the Five Elements Spell. Although Yu Fei'er was unable to comprehend the wood element and the fire element through the five elements, in the process of comprehending the fire element, Yu Fei'er discovered a strange phenomenon. I remember sitting in the main hall of the church, feeling sorry that I couldn't understand the element of fire, and when I accidentally saw the candle burning on the altar in the temple, I couldn't help but feel the mystery of the fire with my hands. So I couldn't help but stretch out my palm and slowly press down from the top of the candle flame, but until I extinguished the candle flame, I didn't find any mystery in the fire, but in the process I found a strange thing that was completely opposite to my imagination before, that is, the temperature of the flame did not rise but fell when my palm slowly approached the center of the candle flame, such an abnormal phenomenon made me remember it in my heart at once. After I knew that Brother was about to draw the fire from the fireball at the top of the passage, and then saw the formation that Brother Dao had put up to cast a spell, Yu Fei'er immediately thought of the burning candle on the table in the main hall of Putuo Mountain. In Brother Dao's spell, isn't the fireball on the top floor of the passage like a candle wick used to burn? Isn't the flame that it shoots out to the ground surrounded by the four small stone incense burners like the flame of the candle when it burns? It can be seen that the edge of the flame surrounded by the four small stone incense burners should be the most powerful point of this spell, and the bottom point of the fireball is the point where the flame power is relatively weak. It was with such a conclusion in his heart that Yu Fei'er boldly made a series of subsequent actions. ”
After listening to Yu Fei'er's explanation, Wen Yiyang secretly thought in his heart, "This Yu Fei'er is almost the same age as himself, but he can observe the things around him so meticulously, and he can never forget it, which is really admirable." ”
Wen Yiyang just wanted to open his mouth to praise Yu Fei'er a few words, but then he heard the bat demon flying in mid-air speak: "Stinky Taoist, I didn't expect that the three of you still have such ability, and you actually burned all the poisonous bats that this hero worked so hard to refine, I am really angry." But if the three of you think that these poisonous bats that have destroyed Ben Daxia have already won Ben Daxia, then you are very wrong. Do you three remember what Ben said when he first appeared? Ben said that the three of you can't even beat me in my territory. Since my poisonous bats have not been able to get rid of you, let me show you the horrors of Chitose bats. With that, the bat demon waved its wings and danced in the air.
"Your dead earthworm brother said something similar, but in the end he was defeated by our hands, so do you have what you can do. Yu Fei'er showed no fear, and as he said this, he had already secretly watched out for the bat demon's next move.
