Chapter 177 The Power of the Stars(1/2)
After the young man killed the enemy with one sword, he endured the injury and "closed the door" again.
After putting away the wooden sword to subdue the demon, Xu Changsheng's arms and clothes were in pieces, and his arms had turned into craggy white bones. Big beads of sweat continued to appear on his forehead, and he turned to look at Xue Nan, who was still in shock.
, grinned.
"Do I look like a swordsman?"
Xue Nan looked at his arms, nodded numbly, and gave a thumbs up.
"It's very similar."
The young man waved his skeletal arms, signaling to keep a low profile.
"If you don't heal your wounds properly, the root of the disease will remain even if you recover." Hong Nanlan floated down with Zhao Jianchi, looking exhausted.
Xu Changsheng chuckled, and blood flowed all over his body, covering the white bones. After a while, a trace of blood could be seen on the white bones.
Seeing this, Hong Nanlan took out another blood medicine from the mustard and threw it over. Xue Nan quickly caught it and fed it to his brother.
When Hong Nanlan saw this, he paid no attention to it and just stared blankly at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
Sensing Zhao Jianchi's gaze, Xue Nan also smiled at him, quite proudly, as if he was the one who drew the sword just now.
Zhao Jianchi rarely showed a friendly smile.
After all, he was really shocked by the soaring sword intent just now.
At first he thought it was the sword fairy from somewhere, but it wasn't until he saw the young man holding the wooden sword high that he realized that he had made a mistake.
It's not just an ordinary glance.
Come to think of it, how can a young man protected by Hong Nanlan like this be so simple?
As for the fairy sword, he didn't think about it at all.
Although he was very jealous, he didn't even dare to show it. Not to mention whether he could take the sword that was at least an immortal weapon, Hong Nanlan would not just watch him take action.
Therefore, it is better to form a good relationship.
…
Half a day later, the team of three people was restored again, driving the spirit boat magic weapon that Hong Nanlan took out, and floated down the Luoshui River.
According to her, the Prison Star Tower is in a valley on the edge of Luoshui River. It only takes half a day to get there from here.
As for Zhao Jianchi, after resting there for a while, he took the initiative to resign and went back to Jubaozhai in Shanjun to heal his injuries.
He also understood that at this point, his role was basically over. After all, the descendant of Anjianwu Hidden Meridian who could show such a trump card would still need his own protection.
It's nothing more than trying to pretend to look like someone else.
When he left, Hong Nanlan also invited him, saying that he could take him to the Prisoner Star Tower to practice and help him break through. Apart from the power of the extraterrestrial stars, the Prisoner Star Tower is also a rare holy place for cultivation.
But in the end, he was rejected by Zhao Jianchi. It wasn't that he didn't appreciate the compliments, but he just didn't want to wade into this muddy water.
Originally, helping Hong Nanlan was a no-brainer, but now that he can leave, why not?
As for the breakthrough, after today's battle, I have a lot of feelings. I believe that it won't take long before I can break through the realm of divine control and become an upper-level god who can see the dragon but never see its end.
…
As for Hong Nanlan, after the battle, the melancholy between his eyebrows also dissipated a lot, and he was obviously quite satisfied with being able to deal with so many of Hong Huang's remnants of abuse.
So he also took the initiative to help Xu Changsheng recover from his injuries on the spirit boat, but he didn't ask about the fairy sword and just pretended that he didn't see it.
"When we get here, I will tell you everything so that you can be prepared. Whether this matter succeeds or not depends on you." Hong Nanlan turned around and said while driving the spirit boat, but in the end
This sentence was obviously meant for Xu Changsheng.
The two of them immediately became serious. Xu Changsheng also retracted his hands with white bones still visible in his sleeves. Even if he could bear the pain, it was scary to look at him like this.
of.
"Let's talk about the Prisoner Star Tower first. This Prisoner Star Tower was built by my ancestors from Anjianwu Hidden Vein. It is nine stories high, and each floor is nine meters high, which means the ninety-nine will return to one. And the Prisoner Star Tower
The stars captured by the Star Tower were also dragged back from outside the territory by our ancestors with their supreme magical power. After they were dragged back, the Star Prison Tower was built here to suppress the stars from outside the territory."
"According to me, your ancestor really has nothing to do. He doesn't go to the Two Realms City to slay demons even if he has that kind of magic power. He even runs to pull a star back." Xue Nan lay on the boat with his legs crossed and said.
.
Hong Nanlan glanced at him and didn't bother to respond. After all, now that he was here, he no longer had to worry about any changes, so he was naturally in a happy mood.
"It is said that the old ancestor built the Prison Star Tower at that time to observe the sky and realize Taoism. However, he did not realize anything before he died. On the contrary, with his death, the stars outside the territory lost their suppression and rioted.
If it hadn't been for the Prisoner Star Formation he set up and the continuous reinforcements from us juniors, there would definitely have been a big problem."
"Then how can you go in now?"
Xu Changsheng asked.
"You really think that star can keep rioting. After so many thousands of years, the star power emitted by that star has been running out... But for us, it is still very strong, but it's okay.
Now that the power of the stars is tied up in the Star Prison Tower, as long as you don't enter the tower, you will be fine." When saying this, Hong Nanlan looked at Xu Changsheng and hesitated.
"What about the tribesmen you are talking about?"
Speaking of them, Hong Nanlan was a little depressed, but he quickly adjusted himself. Looking at the receding mountains on both sides of the strait, he said: "That day after Lord Feng Xiang came to our Hidden Vein, I don't know what he talked about with our clan leader.
They took action against our Hidden Veins people, but imprisoned them on the ninth floor of the Prisoner Star Tower. Later, they found me and said that it was up to me whether they could be rescued. They also allowed me to go outside to find helpers, but those who were on the Prisoner Star
The clansmen on the ninth floor of the tower won’t be able to hold on for long.”
"That's why I was so anxious to come back..."
After listening to the story, Xu Changsheng frowned, something didn't sound right about this matter.
Why do you feel that there is a big problem with Mr. Feng Xiang? He just locked them up without killing people, and even asked Hong Nanlan to find someone to save them.
Since they have such a plan, what should they do?
Disappoint people and give people hope and then cut off other people's hope?
Is it possible that this wind-oriented master has some quirks?
The heart of an immortal is full of twists and turns...
"Then...how do you want Lao Xu to save them?" Xue Nan climbed up, looked at Xu Changsheng's arms, and asked the key question.
"this……"
Hong Nanlan was also a little hesitant. After all, this matter was also her fault. If she hadn't taken the initiative to set up a trap, Xu Changsheng wouldn't have come.
"Now that we're here, Miss Hong, just tell me. I will try my best to help anyone I can." Xu Changsheng said with a smile.
"Wait, Lao Xu, help? You..."
Xue Nan widened his eyes and said.
Hong Nanlan was also a little surprised, but he didn't expect Xu Changsheng to see through this matter.
"When did you find out?"
Hong Nanlan said softly, after all, she couldn't use such despicable methods to deal with two low-level monks.
Xu Changsheng smiled and wanted to take off the Fu Lu and drink it for a few sips, but felt that it was not appropriate, so he gave up the idea.
"When I was in Xingtai County."
"Xingtai County?" Hong Nanlan was a little surprised, but still couldn't react.
"right!"
The young man with the sword nodded.
"Perhaps you didn't pay attention. Miss Hong originally said that Old Xue had been infected by your Dream Soul Gu and would die if he couldn't be fed by you within three days. But that time in Xingtai County, you didn't show up until the morning of the fourth day.
I gave Lao Xue the antidote and I watched him
It’s okay, I’m sure.”
"Is it because of this?" Hong Nanlan obviously failed to notice. After all, he had not planted any poison in the first place. He said it that day just to make Xu Changsheng come with him willingly.
Xu Changsheng shook his head again, stood up and walked around on the narrow boat deck.
"That's not necessarily true. In fact, I have already had doubts about this poison before. After all, Miss Hong doesn't look like that kind of person."
Hong Nanlan was a little shy. He touched his face and said, "Then I'll just assume you're complimenting me."
Xu Changsheng smiled and nodded.
There are some things that some people don't seem to do. Similarly, there are some things that some people seem to do. But there are still some people who can't tell.
After all, their faces are covered with a lot of skin.
It's hard to see through. You can see through his face, but you don't know how many other faces he has underneath.
Hong Nanlan, on the other hand, has very little face. It can even be said that he only has one face.
As for this, Xu Changsheng saw it clearly on the first day he came into contact with her.
Young people are particularly good at observing people's hearts.
However, he never mentioned this matter to anyone, and had nothing to say. Even more often, he did not want to look at it, because the most inscrutable thing in this world is the human heart.
To be continued...
