Act 1: Xiaonanguo's World of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 171: The Chamber of Secrets
The spiritual light burned out, and wisps of blue smoke rose.
"Junior brother... you monkey... can you still use the teleportation array?"
Qin Shaoyou's eyes darkened and he picked up the beast ring.
Although there was blood on the animal control ring, it was not damaged at all, which meant that the monkey did not break free with brute force, but knew the secret formula to take off the beast control ring.
"This monkey hides really deep!"
Qin Shaoyou was obsessed with practicing on weekdays and seldom cared about the situation of the red-eyed monkey. This gave the latter a lot of room for maneuver and learned a lot secretly.
After all, no matter how cautious he was, he would never have thought of guarding against a monkey stealing his master while practicing on Kaiyang Island!
He put away the beast control circle and lowered his head to check the teleportation array.
This formation was completely different from those he had seen before. The spiritual patterns were crisscrossed and complicated, intertwined like a beautiful picture. If it weren't for the fact that three of them were obviously slots for placing spiritual stones,
He will definitely not associate it with the formation.
At this moment, the originally crystal clear spirit stone in the slot had turned into gray-white powder, and the entire stone platform still had residual warmth, and it even felt a little hot to the touch.
Seeing that he was so focused, Bai Xiyao took a few steps back and looked around again, trying to find out if there were any other exits.
Time passed by, and Qin Shaoyou's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. This was not because he was hot, but because he was deducing the spirit patterns on the stone platform at an extremely fast speed, and his whole person entered a state of extreme excitement.
status.
"It doesn't work here, come again!"
"This is how it should be here..."
His two fingers flew back and forth, turning into countless afterimages. Fortunately, there were a large number of medium-grade spiritual stones in his storage bag, providing him with a steady stream of spiritual energy to try and make mistakes. Otherwise, even if he could continue to deduce, this
The spiritual pattern cannot be activated for verification.
Finally, after nearly three sticks of incense, a crisp "click" sound came from the stone platform, forcing him to stop his crazy behavior.
The stone platform finally cracked!
Qin Shaoyou almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He was just short of the last deduction, but at this time he actually dropped the ball!
But even so, he had to stop.
Because if he forcefully completes this journey of spiritual patterns, the stone platform will collapse instantly!
So, he only has one last chance left.
If the bet is right, the teleportation array is activated, and the two try to leave before the stone platform explodes. If the bet is wrong, the road is completely blocked.
Qin Shaoyou took a deep breath and stood up from the ground.
"Sister, we..."
He was just halfway through speaking when he suddenly stopped as if he was being strangled by the neck.
"Senior sister?!"
He turned around, but didn't see Bai Xiyao's figure!
Qin Shaoyou's expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly released his spiritual thoughts to search the place. The surging spiritual thoughts swept out and blew up a large gust of wind. Just as he finished speaking, Bai Xiyao came out from behind a stone pillar with a smile on his face.
Walked out.
She waved to Qin Shaoyou and said:
"Come here quickly, I found a small room with a strange skeleton in it!"
Qin Shaoyou's face was filled with dark lines, he muttered a few words in a low voice and then followed him.
The small room that Bai Xiyao found was in the northwest corner of the secret room, behind a pillar. It would have been difficult to find it unless he walked closer to check.
The door to the small room is also a stone door, but it can be pushed open with a gentle push.
This room is not big. It is surrounded by stone walls and was carved out with a very clumsy technique. It seems that the owner here does not pay much attention to such insignificant things.
In the middle of the room, a skeleton with a wolf head and a human body sat cross-legged. The armor on the skeleton had completely cracked, and a hole the size of a fist appeared in its abdomen.
What puzzled Qin Shaoyou was that judging from the damage pattern of the armor, the hole should have been penetrated from the inside out.
But on the back of the skeleton, they did not find any wounds that could penetrate the hole.
Bai Xiyao pointed to the abdomen of the skeleton and said:
"This thing is neither human nor demon, but it is somewhat similar to the things we saw outside Shang'an City before!"
"And have you noticed that his fatal injury should be on his abdomen? I guess... it's very possible that his Dantian burst!"
Qin Shaoyou took a breath of air-conditioning, and Bai Xiyao reminded him that this skeleton might have practiced the "Blood Spirit Art"!
This is a kind of evil magic!
Who is this person?
How come he died in the Demon Realm, and in a secret room within a secret room?!
"You are right as you said with the body of a wolf and the head of a wolf. He must have practiced the Blood Spirit Art!"
"Blood Spirit Art?"
Bai Xiyao looked confused.
Afterwards, Qin Shaoyou briefly told her about his encounter in the misty swamp and the process of discovering the Blood Spirit Art. Of course, he just ignored some unimportant things.
"You mean he is from Qingmaple Valley?"
"Is it the senior from the Green Maple Valley who is in the God Transformation Realm?"
Qin Shaoyou shook his head when he heard this and said:
"It can't be him!"
"It is only in recent years that some people in Qingfeng Valley have begun to practice this kind of evil magic. That senior has been dead for a thousand years, so it cannot be the inherited Taoist magic of their sect."
The two of them thought about it for a while, but felt they had no clue.
Qin Shaoyou touched his chin and looked at the bones in front of him solemnly. Suddenly, he discovered some subtle abnormalities.
The reason why this is a slight anomaly is because there are some extremely small "marks" left around the skeleton, just like the marks made by the tip of a needle on the dusty floor.
If the signs were not extremely detailed, it would be difficult for even a monk in the Golden Core realm to detect them.
"These traces are a bit suspicious..."
Just as he was thinking about it secretly, Bai Xiyao's eyes flashed with light, and he pointed at the skeleton and said with a smile:
"His storage bag! It's great. Let's open it and take a look. Maybe there's something good in it?"
With that said, Bai Xiyao wanted to go up and get the storage bag, but Qin Shaoyou's eyes sternly pulled her back.
"etc!"
Bai Xiyao's face turned red all of a sudden, because the two of them were in an awkward position, and Qin Shaoyou pulled her into his arms!
Listening to the strong heartbeat in her ears, her heart began to beat violently.
"You...what do you want to do..."
Perhaps the movement of the two people was a little too big. The skeleton of the wolf-headed human body trembled slightly, and the whole head rolled down, and then the whole skeleton sprayed out a thick black mist!
"It's Gui Xu San!"
Qin Shaoyou's expression changed drastically, and he immediately rushed out of the room with her in his arms.
"Are you okay?"
"You've already covered me, what can happen to me?"
Bai Xiyao said angrily.
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he let her go with a little embarrassment.
Guixu Powder, if a monk is contaminated even half a point, his body will turn into withered bones. The spiritual energy of Guixu is the first-class poison in this world!
"You just said it was... Guixu San?"
Bai Xiyao then remembered that he was afraid, and the two of them stood outside the secret room, looking at the small room with wary expressions.
"That kobold is so insidious!"
She cursed somewhat angrily.
Qin Shaoyou didn't think so. The monk with the wolf's head and body was already dead, and he died from the explosion of his Dantian. He must not have had time to set up such a mechanism.
The only possibility is the monkey who came in one step ahead of them!
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but frown.
It seems that the monkey is not as simple as generating intelligence, it is more likely that it has completely inherited the memory of the demon king Liumu!
Otherwise, the current situation cannot be explained at all!
The monkey knew about the existence of this skeleton from the beginning. The stone door that entered the small room must have been opened by the monkey in order to lay the trap of Gui Xusan to deal with Qin Shaoyou and the two!
And thinking about it this way, it makes sense that this monkey can get the spirit stone that activates the teleportation array!
"There should be some relationship between Demon King Willow and this skeleton..."
"Senior sister, don't come over, I'm going to take a look!"
The two waited for a while, and the black fog gradually dissipated.
Since the monkey is no longer Erha and has murderous intentions towards him, Qin Shaoyou will never tolerate it continuing to live!
He has already suffered a similar loss once, and he doesn't want to meet Xu Muqing again!
"Are you crazy?!"
"That's Gui Xu San!"
Bai Xiyao quickly stopped him.
"Sister, don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
Although Qin Shaoyou cannot be said to be completely immune to Guixu San, it is impossible to kill him.
He repeatedly promised that nothing would happen to him and put several layers of golden covers on himself. Only then did Bai Xiyao reluctantly allow him to enter.
Qin Shaoyou carefully returned to the door. At this time, the ground in the room had been corroded with pits, which were densely packed and disgusting.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help clenching his fists.
It seems that this monkey has no mercy on him at all. In the black mist just now, there was not only Gui Xu Powder, but also a large amount of venom. As long as he was exposed to any of it, he would not be able to escape the fate of his body and soul.
However, although these poisons are powerful, they cannot cause "fatal harm" to the storage bag. Qin Shaoyou waved his hand and took out the storage bag, and then, before the storage bag flew into his hand, he released his spiritual thoughts
, and took out everything in it.
After taking out the things, Qin Shaoyou immediately raised his feet and swept back, quickly retreating outside the door.
Kick, kick, kick!
He took several steps back before finally regaining his balance.
In front of Qin Shaoyou, there were only four things suspended.
A token, an alchemy furnace, a jade slip, and a dry and twisted rattan.
"Hey, what is that?"
Bai Xiyao reached out and took the cane in his hand, looking through it curiously.
Qin Shaoyou smiled and shook his head, then took back the remaining three things.
The token has two colors, green and red, with the green side representing the character "天" and the red side representing the character "魔".
"Sky demon?"
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but feel a little different.
What does this mean?
Is it a sect, or does it just represent the name of its master?
The alchemy furnace is named Tianhong, a second-grade earth-level magic weapon.
At this moment, Qin Shaoyou was simply overjoyed. This treasure came just in time, otherwise he would have to borrow it from Kang Xingliu every time he made elixirs!
But when he opened the jade slip, his whole body suddenly froze.
The three big blood-red characters "天魔法" suddenly appeared.
Because he had seen the "Blood Spirit Art" formula before, when he saw the Taoist formula recorded on the "Sky Demon Art", he immediately knew the connection between the two Taoist arts.
"Blood Spirit Art" is the fragment of "Celestial Demon Art"!
