Volume 1 Greedy Wolf Chapter 26 Grotto
In the "pool of blood", the foal's figure fades away, replaced by a blue python phantom. It is as if the green python is trapped in some mysterious place, and at this moment it is breaking through the barrier, trying to break free and regain its freedom.
Chen Tianhong hid far away, held his breath, and quietly watched the phantom of the green python become more and more real, devouring the foal little by little. The fear and cowardice in his heart dominated him strongly, making his mind blank, so that he could only stay away.
Time flew by, and when the green python was about to break through the barrier, Chen Tianhong seemed to have just woken up from his terrible nightmare. The image of the foal swallowing the green snake immediately comes to mind. What's more, those words that the Master of the Sky Lantern said at that time.
Although Chen Tianhong didn't understand a lot of things, he could also understand one thing at this moment, the "Beast Soul Domain" of the pony couldn't trap the "Lord of the Realm" Green Snake. From this, the term "backlash" naturally came to mind. Then he realized that even if he didn't save the foal and in order to protect himself, he would never let the green snake break out alive.
Thinking of this, when I was dying, the fear in my heart disappeared.
Chen Tianhong walked quickly to the side of the blood pool, and first tried to tattoo the phantom of the python with a white cane, but there was no response. With his Tao practice, there is no other way. Thinking of the pony's broken muscles and bones, it is natural to think of the healing method "Yi Jin Jing" taught by the master of the sky lantern. And this technique, he can't be proficient anymore.
It's just that if you want to touch the whole body of the foal now, it seems that you are also stroking the whole body of a big green python. Gradually, the belief in survival overwhelmed the fear. A pair of small hands decisively pressed towards the horse's head. The water is rippling, and the phantom of the green python is like a dragon that wants to come out of the water, which is more realistic. Chen Tianhong couldn't help but close his eyes and didn't look at it.
The water in the blood pool is like the blade of 10,000-year-old ice, cold and piercing, as if it can shatter the meridians and bones. When Chen Tianhong urged the spiritual power and injected it into his palm, the water of the blood pool actually had a strong counterattack power. The counterattack power from the palms quickly spread through the meridians of the whole body, scattering those weak spiritual powers.
Chen Tianhong fainted several times, but his hands never left the horse's head. Seeing that the big green python was getting more and more real, he could no longer care about this pain, nor could he care about the situation that there was no spiritual power injected into his palm, a pair of small hands followed the muscles and bones of the foal, using skillful easy tendon techniques, stroking back and forth.
However, this move was of no use, and instead seemed to have fueled the prestige of the big green python.
Therefore, the panicked heart gradually calmed down in despair, the hands just moved mechanically, and the cold pool water continued to impact the meridians of the whole body.
His whole body became colder and colder, his blood gradually coagulated and froze, and the qi he breathed turned into frost. Finally, for a moment, he was completely frozen by the pool, becoming an ice sculpture. The black fog in the pool water is getting thicker and thicker, and it seems that in the next moment, the black python will rush out of the pool and soar into the sky.
However, just as the fog reached a certain critical point of its thickest concentration, the nine-star purple beads on the white staff began to glow. The faint purple light was like the most brilliant spark in the starry sky.
As soon as the nine-star purple light appeared, Chen Tianhong's eyes reappeared with two rays of light, one red and one green. The three rays of red, green, and purple light shuttled and rendered on the ice-hardened Chen Tianhong, adding dazzling brilliance to the lifelike ice sculpture.
After the three-color light shuttles through the body, its core nodes gradually converge to form the center of the eyebrows. Then, a little white light appeared in the center of the eyebrows, and it became a three-color heart. Slowly, under the dominance of white light, the tricolor light began to rotate. Then, a whirlpool force that condensed heaven and earth slowly appeared, waking up Chen Tianhong, who was in a state of chaos and nightmares.
Chen Tianhong felt the presence of a force, which was impacting his pipe-like meridians. Each meridian was completely impacted once, and the spiritual power within it was washed away. Suddenly, new faint spiritual power will naturally appear in the meridians. And so, that force continued to strike.
In this way, the reciprocating cycle has no end. It's like building a tall building, and you have to lay the foundation over and over again. For monks, the "meridians" opened by the prerequisites for cultivation are like the skeleton of a tall building. Only when the skeleton is stable and firm, can cultivation be improved again and again.
Chen Tianhong is going through all this. It's just that he doesn't know and doesn't understand. Like this, the repeated refining of the spiritual power stored in the meridians can usually only be achieved by relying on heavenly and earthly treasures. And this resource consumption, even if it is a super-first-class family on the Shenzhou Continent, there is only one person in each generation. Of the nine major cultivation sects, only three of them can afford to be in each generation.
From this, it can be seen.
Chen Tianhong's hands, without conscious perception, resumed their activities and made the sound of gurgling water. As time passed, the water in the pool seemed less cold, the phantom of the green python in the black mist seemed less terrifying, and the figure of the foal became clear again.
* * *
The light in the grotto is so constant that it is difficult to tell the difference between day and night.
In Chen Tianhong's vague impression, time has probably passed for a long time, a long time. It was so long that he had no sense of time, so long that he was numb to the feeling of his body, and so long that the green python that was about to move hibernated quietly in a mysterious realm.
It's as if everything has become natural.
The sound of "bang" seemed to come from the sky, and there was a faint sound of mountains and flowing water. Chen Tianhong woke up suddenly, and found that the foal was already standing in the pool of blood, licking and 'licking' his hands.
Chen Tianhong smiled slightly, patted the foal's forehead, and said, "We are both 'people' who have fallen to the end of the world, so why should we know each other when we meet." ”
"Uh!" Chen Tianhong read a poem casually, felt wrong, and said with a smile: "You are a beast, I am not as good as a beast in the eyes of others." So, this poem is still very suitable for the two of us!"
Chen Tianhong felt very sleepy, no longer paying attention to the foal, returned to a large stone cave that he had picked earlier, and fell asleep. Two years ago, since the killer appeared, he hadn't slept a full night's sleep. Ironically, in this secluded grotto, he felt more secure than ever.
In this grotto, the spiritual power and aura are so rich, Chen Tianhong has no idea. This has to do with his congenital root bones. But in this environment, not to mention a primate, even a piece of rotten wood will sprout again and be reborn.
What's more, under the careful guidance of the Sky Lantern Master, Chen Tianhong has preliminarily mastered the best breathing and breathing method. Cultivating the true way is the most subtle, gradual, and natural development. Therefore, in this sleep-making experience, Chen Tianhong's cultivation gain is more than 10,000 times that of his usual cultivation.
If it weren't for the limited nature of his talents, now would be the time for his Tao to advance by leaps and bounds. However, even so, his talent is undergoing the transformation and refinement of the day after tomorrow. In this process of repeated tempering, the meridians of the whole body are expanded and consolidated, and the spiritual power is repeatedly refined.
People who fall asleep often have dreams.
In Chen Tianhong's dream, a barren land appeared. Ten days were juxtaposed in the sky, and the light was like a blazing flame, covering the heavens and the earth. In the midst of that raging flame, a big green wolf with wings fought with a yellow snake with four legs. It seems that if it weren't for the existence of the Ten Days, the power of the green wolf and the yellow snake would be enough to tear the heavens apart.
In the fierce battle, the yellow snake gradually showed signs of exhaustion. The green wolf became more and more courageous, and its two eyes, one red and one green, seemed to be emitting the groundbreaking power of "re-establishing the wind and fire and rebuilding the world". The pair of green wings, which gradually reddened, seemed to stimulate the bloodthirsty nature of the wolf. The power of the Ten Days of Light, as if it had found sustenance, gathered on its wings.
As a result, the heavens and the earth gradually darkened, as if they wanted to be reduced to chaos.
At this moment, a little blue light appeared in the dim sky, and it was so dazzling. The two-winged green wolf and the four-legged yellow snake in the fierce battle quietly silently and looked at the blue light together. The blue light slowly moves to the middle.
It turned out to be a blue teardrop from a heavy bird. Among the teardrops was the head of a small white snake, whose neck was still dripping blood.
The winged green wolf raised its head to the sky and roared three times, jumped high, and took away the blue teardrops. Suddenly, a golden giant palm appeared in the sky, overwhelming the sky and striking at the green wolf.
"Run!"
Chen Tianhong, who was asleep, witnessed this scene and shouted loudly. So, the dream also woke up, but the memory of the dream in my mind was so clear that my mood could not be calmed for a long time.
Chen Tianhong lay down for a while, and when his mood calmed down a little, he sat up, took out his pen and ink, and wrote "two-winged green wolf", "four-legged yellow snake", "little white snake in blue teardrops", and "heavy bird" on the paper.
How to say it, if it is according to the story of making up, Chen Tianhong can make up a lot of it himself. can correspond to Chen Tianhong, it is no longer a story, but a real thing that can be linked.
The sentence "The covenant of the wolf and snake, Dan's heart and blood" came back to my mind. After a long time, he also wrote this sentence on paper. Looking at the words on the paper, there is a very clear clue formed, but the most critical connection point is faintly missing, but it is impossible to figure out whether it is the connection point of that key part.
For example, if it's just something in a dream, the story is clear and can't be clearer. It can be connected with what Chen Tianhong actually knows, and there are too many blank things. What characters are entangled at what point in time is completely fragmented.
Chen Tianhong stood up, pasted the paper on the most eye-catching stone wall, and walked out of the stone cave. I saw a tall and mighty white horse, intently licking the crimson stalactite.
He was shocked to think that the foal had grown more than three times as much, which usually took three years. Exclaimed: Didn't I spend three years in the cave?
When you think about it, you think it's impossible. I first came to the edge of the pool and washed my face to refresh myself. Coming to the white horse again, the white horse's tail swayed slightly, brushing on Chen Tianhong's face, which was very soft.
The stalactite hanging upside down like a bell is nothing out of the ordinary. But on the nearby wall, where it seemed to have been wiped repeatedly, six mysterious runic marks appeared.
Chen Tianhong pressed it with his hand, but none of them could be pressed. At this moment, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and Xiang was walking towards him. I couldn't help but take a step back.
Suddenly, I heard someone say, "Senior brother, you ......."
One man replied leisurely: "A man dies like a lamp goes out." My little junior brother, who only has a one-sided relationship, met with an accident. I, the fourth senior brother, have a great sin. It's also good to burn some paper money for him. No, it's Qiqi paper today. In the future, no, I won't use it. ”
"The phoenix and Xuanwu cultivated by Senior Brother Qinglong have broken through to the high level of the Kaiyuan Realm. Chongming, which was cultivated by Senior Brother Xuanwu, fell unexpectedly. The contrast between the two compartments is the difference between cloud and mud. ”
"Xie (xie) day, if you have something to say, don't always beat around the bush and be mysterious. ”
"I always think that the power that can raze Chongming Jiufeng to the ground in an instant, looking at the entire Fengshen Temple, is one of the few few. Senior Brother Xuanwu should insist on pursuing this matter. ”
"The old man has spoken, this is an accident, there is no need to investigate it! How else can I investigate? This matter is over, there is no need to mention it again!"
"Then Senior Brother, you will completely lose the opportunity to compete with the Green Dragon. ”
"Oh, huh, huh?" the speaker suddenly fell silent, and after a long time, the voice said leisurely, "You four wooden people, you know a fart." I might as well tell you, as far as I know the old man, it is likely to ......"
"Chongming is not dead!"
"Uh-huh, be quiet!" one of them laughed proudly a few times and said lightly, "You probably don't know." However, I traced a lot of classics and found that this Chongming Nine Peaks, which no one cared about, actually has always had a mysterious legend. And this legend, the inheritors of the lineage in the sect have always been very jealous. However, my master, who has the ability to go against the sky in his bones, is not afraid. So, can his old man's deliberate arrangement go wrong?"
The voice paused, and said, "So, you four wooden people, don't be smart. Just be patient. As for the fact that some people deliberately lured the 'Earth Demon Beast Golden Mantis', hehe! Forget it, don't talk about it!"
"It turns out that Senior Brother Xuanwu has already understood everything!"
"Not necessarily! Logically speaking, there is no such thing as a sect leader who has so hastily closed the door. Accepting closed disciples is a big deal. Therefore, the old man's acceptance of closed disciples this time was without warning, which was still weird. ”
The fifth voice said, "Unless, Elder Shengwu already knows everything about Young Chen Tianhong. Unless, Elder Shengwu has already ......"
"It's good to understand, you don't have to say it. A voice interrupted, and the conversation changed, "By the way, has the Earth Demon Beast Golden Mantis been found?"
