Chapter 25
This statement made Yuan Xiaohan slightly stunned.
He thought: Ruan Xun is willing to joke with him, which shows that his attitude towards him has changed.Why change?It must be because Ruan Xun was moved by Cai Cai's behavior, and to be more specific, it must be because he was impressed by his figure.After all, this person is wrong, and he says he refuses, but he wants to accept it in his heart.Then he should make persistent efforts to completely impress this person and bring him back to the villa as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xiaohan once again raised his hand to support his chin.
Ruan Xun didn't know what Yuan Xiaohan was thinking at all, he looked away after throwing out two words, and moved on.
Because of Yuan Xiaohan's sword, the stone statues standing on both sides of the corridor were shattered into pieces, the ever-burning lamp was still on, and the candle flame flickered on the dripping lamp oil, illuminating the gap under the stone wall by accident. It was filled with some kind of pitch-black substance, through which light could not penetrate.
He squatted down, stretched out his fingers into the gap, and twisted lightly.
is a gas.
His fingers didn't stay in it for a moment, but there was a tingling sensation, and a strange feeling ran all over his body.
Ruan Li's eyelashes trembled, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart-this feeling was very similar to what he experienced when he first entered the formation under Ruan's Mirror Lake a hundred years ago.
He immediately withdrew his hand and raised his eyes to look forward: this dark gap spread forward along the corridor, converging on the unknown place at the end, filled with faint blue smoke, extremely eerie.
There should be a formation similar to the Ruan family's Jinghu formation in front of it, and it should not go any further, a voice sounded from the bottom of Ruan's heart.
But already here, is there really a chance to leave?Ruan Xun looked around, his eyes flicked over the stone wall where the totem fell off, and finally fixed on the empty place in the void.
The answer is no chance.
Ruan Xun has learned about poisonous corpses and their refining methods.
In the final analysis, this kind of thing is nothing more than a puppet that does not need to be manipulated by a string, has no mind, and is a complete dead thing.After refining this thing, there is no possibility of improving the realm of cultivation.In other words, the state of the poisonous corpse was the same after death.
The corpse refiners hiding here, in order to obtain highly cultivated poisonous corpses, use all means to drag practitioners who have passed away for many years out of the grave and take them as their own. This shows how vicious they are, and the poisonous corpses they destroy are all Those with advanced realms, if they leave at this time, how can they be easily let go?
To retreat is to fight; not to retreat is also to fight.So there is no difference between the two, it is better to find out.
Yuan Xiaohan noticed Ruan Sie's abnormality, and called out "Ruan Xiaoshang" in a low voice, but Ruan Sie didn't respond, so he squatted beside him and repeated his actions just now.
"There is energy flowing here." Yuan Xiaohan said after investigating.
Ruan Xun said "hmm" flatly.
Yuan Xiaohan withdrew his hand and pointed at the top of the gap: "The flow direction is consistent with these smokes, which means that they are converging, not scattered."
Ruan Xun nodded: "Yes."
"Keep going forward, we will definitely find something." Yuan Xiaohan said.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go." Ruan Xun stood up while talking, and looked at the other end of the corridor.
Yuan Xiaohan didn't move, he tilted his head halfway, and looked at Ruan Xun with a bent eye and a smile: "I'm waiting for you to say no more, let's go back."
"Heh." Ruan Lu lowered his eyes, met Uehara Xiaohan's eyes, and pulled the corners of his lips indifferently.
"Even if Ruan Xiaolu is sneering, he's still very pretty." Yuan Xiaohan's curved eyes were even more curved, and the faint candlelight on the corridor shattered between his eyes, like a sea of stars.
Ruan Xun stared at Xinghai for a few breaths, and said calmly, "You may be a little lame."
Yuan Xiaohan's eyes didn't even blink, and he said firmly, "I'm very serious."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand towards Ruan Xun, probably wanting Ruan Xun to pull him up, but Ruan Xun only gave him two words: "Shut up", and after speaking, he turned around and moved on.
Yuan Xiaohan had no choice but to get up on his own, and quickly followed.He didn't like these ever-burning lanterns that were lying on the ground, so he took out the lantern he had used before from his Primordial Ring, snapped his fingers to light it up, and dispelled the faint smoke that lingered around him.
Quickly walk to the end of the corridor.During this half way, the cave owner didn't make any more stumbling blocks, and was as quiet as if he was leaving.But Ruan Xun knew that this person must be hiding somewhere, watching them.
At the end is a stone bridge, the bottom of the bridge is dark, and the bridge deck is filled with smoke, completely blocking the situation on the other side of the bridge.
Yuan Xiaohan threw a sliver of energy onto the lantern, and after letting go, the lantern floated to Ruan Xun's side.
"I've always disliked being passive. Instead of standing here and waiting for the owner to make a move, it's better to destroy something that looks important and lure him to show up." Yuan Xiaohan said with a smile on his lips. , while pulling out a sword flower.
Ruan Xun took a step aside.
The sword light suddenly rose, shattering the evil atmosphere of the bridge, and the scene behind the bridge was a large hall made of white jade.In front of the hall, the magnificent watch is towering and full of totems. The opaque and dark things seen earlier meandered into strange patterns on the ground, surrounding the White Jade Hall.
Because of the pill, Ruan Xun didn't feel uncomfortable seeing those totems.
He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then took out the water-red porcelain bottle, poured the remaining pills into his palm, and threw them all out.Yuan Xiaohan immediately swung a sword wind and sent these pills away, each one happened to land on the White Jade Hall.
There was a sound of bombing, Yuan Xiaohan asked with a smile: "Do you think this is fun? Why don't I refine a few more bottles for you?"
Ruan Shui said with a straight face, "No need."
There is a formation in front of the hall, and there is an enchantment in the hall. Except for a few waves of shock, the pill has no real effect, but all of this is expected. Ruan Xun didn't expect this thing to blow up anything.
After the smoke and dust cleared, Yuan Xiaohan stepped forward, with Ruan Xun at his side, the closer he got to the hall, the more eerie and familiar feeling became more obvious.
The large array under the Jinghu Lake of the Ruan family in Jinling has two functions: one is to bind, and the other is to extract the divine power from the scabbard, transform it into spiritual power, and send it to the four directions.The formation here is simpler, it has no binding effect, it is only used for gathering strength.
Ruan Xun clearly felt that the divine power belonging to the scabbard in his body was overflowing bit by bit.Yuan Xiaohan also noticed something was wrong, turned his head to look at Ruan Xun, and after a few breaths, he pasted a talisman on him.
"The energy in your body is leaking out, this talisman can temporarily suppress it." Yuan Xiaohan frowned, "It's so strange, although I also feel that my energy is affected by this array, why are you so serious?"
After saying that, he looked down at himself and asked, "Could it be because of the difference in physique?"
"This is a power-gathering formation. The primordial energy in your body, the strange aura on Longjin Island, and the spiritual power of the heavens and the earth, all power that comes here will be sucked away by this formation."
Ruan Xun glanced at the talisman paper on his arm, concealed the inconvenient words to Yuan Xiaohan, "How much to absorb and which part to absorb depends on the needs of the formation", and said calmly.
"The Xinyi people are proficient in the theory of life and death reincarnation, and they believe in the immortality of the soul. I think that the establishment of this formation here should have something to do with these."
After a pause, Ruan Xun said again: "It's not easy to build this formation. It doesn't take a few years, and it's impossible to arrange it properly. Once it is destroyed, the person who refines the poisonous corpse will definitely waste all his efforts."
"You know it so clearly." Yuan Xiaohan let out a "huh".
Ruan Xun didn't explain, but just pointed his chin at the formation in front of him, "So why don't you hurry up and do it?"
After hearing this, Yuan Xiaohan was quite emotional: "Tsk, Ruan Xiaolu, you actually know how to call me."
"I advise you to change your name." Ruan Xun's voice was cool.
"Change it to what? Ah Xun, Xun Xun?" Yuan Xiaohan began to think.
Ruan Xun rolled his eyes.
"How about calling Ruan Ruan? It sounds very cute."
Yuan Xiaohan was still thinking about what to call him, but he saw a strange spell descending from the sky amidst the lightning.
——Dozens of dark spheres condensed by Yuanli fell, rolling bigger and bigger in the air, and when they were pressed to the top of the head, they were already connected and inseparable.
In an instant, Ruan Xun raised his sword, Yuan Xiaohan raised his sword, and the lights of the sword intertwined, dispelling the strange energy from his whole body.
The two people's backs were pressed against each other, and the plain clothes and purple shirts were intertwined in the mighty wind.Yuan Xiaohan said dissatisfied, "I've agreed and I'll deal with it."
"You are too slow." Ruan Xun's voice was cold.
Yuan Xiaohan snorted from his nasal cavity, "It's okay to play, but don't take it too seriously." Then he changed the topic, "Of course, I can also see that you are desperately trying to let the remaining two gold needles pop out, so that I heal you."
"Where's your face?" Ruan Xun asked coldly.
"It fell on you." Yuan Xiaohan replied with a smile.
After speaking, he slashed again with a knife and a sword, and the splendor lingered in front of the hall, as gorgeous as fireworks blooming in the night sky.When the two dealt with this spell, they shared their strength even more by coincidence, attacking the formation on the ground.
The floor tiles in front of the hall were flying one after another, the winding lines were destroyed in an instant, the main hall made of white jade was crumbling, and the formation was even more dilapidated.
Ruan Xun and Yuan Xiaohan looked at each other, the sword raised and the sword fell, and struck fiercely at the center of the formation.
Two strands of primordial force rushed into the formation at the same time, shattering the formation in the midst of the agitation!
This completely enraged the owner of the place, a black mist passed through his eyes, but he saw a person falling in front of the gate of the White Jade Hall.
This person was wearing a cloak and the hood was pressed down extremely low, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but the hands exposed outside were extremely thin, shaped like a piece of dead wood.He seemed to have seen the sun for a long time, his complexion was pale, and the finger he raised had deep and long nails.
"Oh, it's just two young children of the third level of the Phaseless Realm. I want to see how capable you are!" The man said in a very low voice, and his words were full of anger.
With the slight movement of his fingertips, a black sphere formed by exhaust energy emerged behind him.
"Conjurer, you only know this move?" Yuan Xiao Han said flatly, and swung the sword in his hand, the light of the sword exploded.
The corner of the conjurer's lips, which were approaching colorless, twitched, and then, the floating black sphere suddenly ejected.
Yuan Xiaohan half-closed his eyes, raised his sword and swept across, the sword energy was like a dragon churning, sweeping it down like an overwhelming mountain.
"I thought that a person who dared to say, 'The third level of the Phaseless Realm is a stinky child' must have a very high realm." Yuan Xiaohan took a few steps forward with his sword in his hand, and said slowly, "But no Come to think of it, you are only a cultivation base of the Formless Realm."
The conjurer sneered.
The next moment, I saw the broken ground, and turned out the corpses of two monsters!
"I have the ability to refine poisonous corpses in the phaseless realm, and I have the ability to control monsters of the same realm. Kid, do you dare to try?" the conjurer said in a deep voice.
"Of course." Before Yuan Xiaohan could finish his sentence, the long sword was raised, and with a swipe in the air, the light from the tip of the sword formed a curved arc, shaped like a winding moon.
The person didn't move, the sword light moved, and the cold arc of light hit the head of the monster beast, extremely fierce and unstoppable, but in the middle of the journey, he suddenly turned around and slashed diagonally at the magician at the gate of the White Jade Hall.
The conjurer's expression changed drastically, his breath was still choked in his throat, and he saw a plain white figure flashing in the void, with arcs of light drawn from his clothes, like a flower that blooms and fades in an instant.
With the afterimage in the sky, Ruan Xun had already arrived in front of the hall, taking advantage of the fact that the conjurer had no time to distract himself from dealing with Yuan Xiaohan, he slashed open the door of the hall and broke into the hall.
These two people, no one cares about monsters at all!
The conjurer was so angry that he never expected that these two people would play their cards out of routine, but there was no way to avoid it at the moment, so they could only meet Yuan Xiaohan's sharp sword move.
Yuan Xiaohan is a person who usually has a lazy body and a loose expression, but when he strikes a sword, he is neat and straightforward - especially when Ruan Xun is not around, he has no one to seduce, so he is too lazy to put on airs.
His sword, the sword intent is extremely cold and deep, the sword's force is extremely fierce and fierce, and the sword's moves are extremely frenzied and sick, just like the wind blowing from the extremely cold place in the north, it is extremely frightening.
As for conjurers, their practice has always focused on the spirit and spells, and they are basically not good at close combat. When fighting with others, they always hide from a distance.Yuan Xiaohan approached suddenly, and the conjurer had a hard time coping with it.
When one sword falls, the second sword rises again, and the moves are linked together. The light of the sword is tightly woven, making it impossible for the conjurer to escape.
Seeing that the blazing sword was about to fall, the conjurer raised his hand and pointed at the monster, calling it to come in a flash, and knocked Yuan Xiaohan's sword away for him.
Then it rose against the wind, climbed onto the back of another monster, pushed it away a few feet, and looked down upon Yuan Xiaohan from a height.
Yuan Xiaohan backed away. He hadn't looked carefully before, but now he looked carefully and found that these two monsters had a lot of background. They were actually demonized holy beasts. One was a white tiger, and the other was Xuanwu.
"I didn't expect you to be able to dig out such a corpse." Yuan Xiaohan sneered, "It's also a skill."
With the protection of monsters and beasts, the conjurer gained confidence, but Ruan Xun broke into the hall, which made him a little worried, so he concealed a little caution in his tone: "Who are you, how dare you declare your name!"
Yuan Xiaohan raised his eyebrows, moved to the entrance of the main hall calmly, and said with a smile: "Before asking someone else's name, you should tell your own, otherwise it will appear extremely impolite."
Hearing this, the conjurer's face darkened under the hood, and he waved his sleeves impatiently and said, "Oh, this old man is the ancestor of Qianshan who returned to the west. If you are sensible, get out with your companions!"
"Oh, so it's the ancestor, who lived to be four or five hundred years old, right?" Yuan Xiaohan pretended to be weird, "The age is indeed a bit old, no wonder we dare to say that we are children."
"..." Lu Xigui was so choked that he couldn't speak.
Yuan Xiaohan cast a secret glance into the hall, and saw that the hall was empty, except for an ice coffin placed above the jade steps.There was an enchantment on the ice coffin, but Ruan Xun didn't forcefully break it, but just stood aside and looked down.
This person is quite obedient, Yuan Xiaohan's hanging heart is a little more stable.
"Who are you?" Lu Xigui urged without waiting for an answer, with a low and hoarse voice.
"I don't understand drinking alone in the flowers, but I'm just a poisonous doctor in the quack, and I can't compare with my ancestor." Yuan Xiaohan switched the sword from his right hand to his left, moved his position slightly, to block the situation in the hall, turned his eyes, and answered in a rambling voice.
"The poison doctor uses the sword?" Lu Xigui sneered, obviously not believing it.
"Of course, poison doctors can also use knives." Yuan Xiaohan smiled seriously.
Lu Xigui flicked his sleeves again: "This old man won't argue with you, so leave quickly!"
Yuan Xiaohan shook his head slowly: "The old ancestor's words are wrong. You refine poisonous corpses and put them in the city, letting them bite the people wantonly. Just because of this, you should be punished. What's more, you also stole The remains of many ancestors are deeply sinful."
"It's a joke, it's their honor that they were turned into poisonous corpses by me!" Lu Xigui said coldly, then suddenly changed the topic, and smiled faintly, "It seems that after today, my general will have another good relationship."
As the words fell to the ground, Xuanwu, who was standing aside and waiting for an opportunity, quickly approached Yuan Xiaohan and made a bold move.Immediately afterwards, Lu Xigui, who was on the back of the white tiger, lifted his hands, turned his palms to form a seal, and struck out with his palms folded, suddenly attacking Yuan Xiaohan's side.
Yuan Xiaohan drew his sword to meet him, but at this moment, a trace of something bad crossed his heart.
——Why did Ruan Shui go in for so long, but there was no movement?
But Xuanwu's attack came so fast that Yuan Xiaohan didn't have much time to think about it.
This thing was originally a holy beast, even though its realm has fallen after death, its body is still a copper-skinned iron bone, and now it is not afraid of pain, it can be said that it has almost no weaknesses, fighting with it is simply a model of wasting effort.
Yuan Xiaohan immediately switched from offense to defense, and began to pay attention to Lu Xigui's flaws.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound coming from the hall!
Yuan Xiaohan had a bad heart, so he didn't care about anything, he forcibly blocked Lu Xigui's flowing fire spell, then passed the Xuanwu blocking the way, and flashed into the White Jade Palace.
Looking up, it was shocking on the spot.
On the radiant jade steps, in front of the ice coffin floating in the gloomy light, there was a formation that was quietly running. Ruan Xun lowered his head with a knife and half-kneeled on the ground. The position he was in was the center of the formation.
In the big formation, tiny shimmers of light flowed, and Qi surged, causing his clothes to fly and his silver hair to fall, making him pale and fragile.
He must be in pain, the only remaining two of the three souls huddled together, the knuckles of the knife handle were turning blue, the shoulders trembled slightly and frequently, the brows were furrowed, the crow-black eyelashes couldn't help trembling, thin The lips even lost their color.
——The formation was sucking away his energy, bit by bit, and poured into the ice coffin in front of him.
Yuan Xiaohan frowned, and was about to rush over, but heard Lu Xigui's laughing voice from behind.
"Do you think that if there is no totem of our family in the temple, it will be safe and secure to enter? Do you think that the thing you destroyed is the real formation?"
Lu Xi turned back and rode the corpse of the monster white tiger and came leisurely. He sat high, his eyes were just at the same level as the ice coffin, and after glancing at Ruan Xun in the formation, his expression suddenly became serious: "This person is actually..."
Immediately afterwards, Lu Xigui burst into ecstasy: "This is the power of resurrection! The mysterious power that can resurrect the dead!"
"Hahaha! It's really hard to find anywhere, and it doesn't take much effort! I have been searching for hundreds of years, but I have no choice but to use the corpse poison as a lure to summon the power of the ghost moon, trying to wake up Ah. Yao. Unexpectedly, this trick can only be used for a day, and the person with the power of resurrection will come to the door by himself!"
"Ha! God help me too!"
Lu Xigui's laughter shook the sky, and as he spoke, he drove the white tiger to run towards the jade steps. Halfway through, he saw a purple figure pass by.Yuan Xiaohan raised his sword, stopped him at the bottom of the steps, and killed him coldly.
The whole body of the three-foot long sword is black, and the light of the sword flows lightly on the dark pattern. With a stroke of the sword tip, deep dents appear on the jade-paved ground.
"You'd better think about it, what will happen to you if you move him." Yuan Xiaohan's casual expression faded away, his eyes were half-closed, and his voice was cold, "Remove the formation, otherwise, I, together with the ice coffin The person you want to resurrect will be destroyed together."
