729 First Exploration of the Canyon
Xu Hao's simple retelling, but it solved a little doubt before Shui Xin - if what he said was not false.
Then it is very likely that the Meng hookah that I knew before was probably dead in the hands of the descendants of the Qinglong totem.
In addition, even with her head, it was easy to figure out that this should be a game aimed at Lin Fengyan and a group of elite disciples of the three sects and six sects at the same time, since the hand was so big, it would naturally be easy to succeed - in addition to the Ancient Killing Array, maybe just take into account the belligerence of the sword cultivator against the opponent of equal strength.
But at this time, Shui Xin didn't have the heart to think much about the layout of the organization, so she only asked again and again.
After getting the answer, even she felt stupid.
The only person who escaped was Xu Hao, and the means they used to enter the canyon were to drive a group of eagles and hummingbirds. I also want to know that the loophole found by them in this ancient killing array is related to the "voice".
β...... The eagle hummingbird must have branched out of this canyon. Another characteristic of eagle hummingbirds is that they like to eat poisons, and the higher the rank, the less afraid of poison. The bones of high-level eagles and hummingbirds have always been an important raw material for detoxification pills. The chirping of the eagle and hummingbird should be the 'key' to the opening of this formation...... Of course, this is what we surmised from the clues, but since they all managed to get in, it means that our inference is correct. β
Following Xu Hao's inference and the direction in which the disciples of the previous sect entered the dense fog, Shui Xin also dived down stupidly and boldly.
In the thick fog, it is all poisonous.
I don't know if it's because of the original miasma, even Shui Xin's sword cultivator's skin. There was a faint burning sensation, and he didn't dare to breathe - no wonder Xu Hao was anxious, Shui Xin could use the sword yuan to protect his body. And the Taoist cultivators also have their own antidote pills available, and everyone knows the art of turtle breath.
But even if there is nothing else, living in this place with strong toxins for a long time, resisting is consumption, and sooner or later you will be weak and die.
Shui Xin closed her eyes and let her five senses collect information.
Gu Xiao and Bai Hanzhang followed behind, and also used their own methods to protect themselves - thank God Gu Xiao used a serious literary treasure. I didn't squander Hongchen anymore.
The white fog is thick and there is hardly any sense of flow, so it is easy to gather information.
You can easily feel the trajectory of the eagle, hummingbird, and later monks. Their artistic conception is still left in the thick fog. A clear route is marked - in the white fog, a small "black hole" was left behind, which was not filled by the white fog!
Speaking of the perceived volume, it is really just enough for one person to enter. And there are no signs of bridging.
What else is there to say?
Shui Xin fell directly.
A familiar slight dizziness came. In the blink of an eye, the heavens and the earth were changed. The thick fog around him was still there, and the burning sensation of the skin became more obvious, and the vigilance that had been held in advance was no longer useful for the time being, and the breath of the monks who had entered before was still at the landing point, but it was obvious that they had all left.
On the contrary, Gu Xiao and Bai Hanzhang were not dispersed. All fell close.
When I looked around, even my eyes hurt slightly. But even if you close your eyes, you can tell with the rest of your senses. The presence of a "black hole" is completely undetectable in the dense fog.
"Fixed teleportation point. A voice came out from the side, "I'm skeptical of the Ancient Killing Array's claims. β
Shui Xin could hear that this was Gu Xiao "talking". I didn't even dare to breathe, and opening my mouth was undoubtedly a stupid move. Fortunately, although the white fog is thick, it is not difficult to shake the air. Even Shui Xin can do the same when she keeps her mouth shut. Just the sound it makes is definitely different from the normal sound.
At this time, Gu Xiao's voice sounded a little erratic, as if a ghost was groaning.
It's a shame that Shui Xin and Bai Hanzhang are not afraid of this.
Bai Hanzhang's slightly "buzzing" voice also came out, "Don't count." β
He probably wanted to say "not evidence", but the special way of speaking made his enthusiasm for speaking suddenly return to when Shui Xin first knew him.
Shui Xin also wanted to express some opinions - according to Xu Hao, although he guessed that it was an ancient killing array, it was only because of the poisonous fog that filled the canyon and the few small prohibitions encountered (it seemed that the power was not fully activated), and the evidence was not sufficient in the first place.
It is easy to deteriorate in this environment after being injured, and even if you haven't encountered anything particularly terrifying, it is difficult to guarantee what will happen when the influence of the spiritual veins is further expanded. Who has the heart to explore?
Now is it......
Shui Xin was still adjusting her voice, trying to make her voice not so sharp as an electronic sound, and in the thick fog, an ominous, Si Suo Suo sound came.
Shui Xin's attempt came to an abrupt halt at once.
Just listening to the sound is nothing.
But aside from her eyes, the other senses were enough to construct a concrete image for her in the thick fog, not much different from what she sawβtens of thousands, even tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of ant-sized insects were approaching them, each with curled tail spines on their bodies!
"Ant scorpion. Gu Xiao also noticed it.
He also bought jade slips about the various demon beasts and poisonous insects infested in the heavenly spine, and before he had time to write it out by hand, Shui Xin couldn't read it, but he naturally remembered it, "I think it's better for us to run first." β
Gu Xiao's courage has never been small.
It's the first time I've directly confessed.
So Shui Xin and Bai Hanzhang didn't hesitate, Shui Xin even chose a direction with fewer ants and scorpions to rush out first.
On the road, I stepped on a bone, and the bone was hollow, and it was a bird bone. The bird bones are still fresh, but there is no meat left. It's obvious where it came from.
As soon as they fled, the ant scorpion colony seemed to feel exposed, and the sound of Suo Suo suddenly became louder and faster.
Thanks to the speed of the three of them, Gu Xiao even directly used the Flying Wenbao, and went out three kilometers in the blink of an eye, and escaped from the territory of this small creature before the ant scorpion was completely surrounded.
The crushing ant scorpion erected tail spines behind them as a deterrent.
Shui Xin wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist.
As a girl, it's one thing to be able to fight. Psychological resistance is another thing - Heart Devouring Gu is not a good memory to this day.
"These ant scorpions are terrifying?" Shui Xin couldn't care that her "voice" was too sharp.
"If it's a lot. Gu Xiao's voice became more and more erratic, "Their paralyzing toxins can be stacked, and their mouths are very sharp. If there are enough of them. In the blink of an eye, you can nibble away at a monk. But under normal circumstances, they would not have acted on such a large scale, nor would they provoke an enemy of such a large size as humanity. β
Now in this situation, talk about what is "normal".
Shui Xin pursed her lips, but she was also worried. After leaving the territory of the ant scorpion, I don't know what to do next. From above, you can see that the fog is very wide, and now it seems that the canyon is still very deep. In cases where visual perception is limited. How to find people in such a vast area is really a problem.
Maybe it would be better to stay before and wait for Brother Lei and Senior Xu?
"Worried?" Gu Xiao saw that Shui Xin was silent. Know what the problem is.
"Certainly. β
"I don't think they have any formation masters. Whether it's killing the formation or something else, the most advantageous ones are obviously the formation masters. Now that you don't, isn't it time for your intuition to work!"
Because her voice had changed, Shui Xin couldn't be sure if Gu Xiao was joking or serious.
In the end, he was telling the truth. Now except for intuition. What else can you rely on?
"Actually. Shui Xin made a voice with a sword aura of "snort", "The canyon is not very wide, there are cliffs on both sides and blocked by ant scorpions on one side - I don't think you want to go back - we actually only have one way to choose!"
Gu Xiao wouldn't be ridiculed by her, "We had two paths just now, and they were the one you chose, didn't they?"
Bai Hanzhang laughed "sneered", and finally expressed his sense of existence.
Shui Xin is a little stuffy.
Why did so much experience tell her that she couldn't say Gu Xiao, but she couldn't learn a lesson?
But. At least you don't have to choose a road anymore.
The way the ant scorpion surrounded her had already told her which side of the canyon was the cliff, and she just walked to the other side of the canyon. Now the ant scorpion is still in the way. Before the sword intent channeled, Shui Xin could not guarantee that she would not be bitten by these ant scorpions.
There are too many!
In the end, when she entered the senses, she felt that there were millions of them, to say the least. If it weren't for the fact that these ant scorpions seemed to have an active territory, Shui Xin felt that the previous great escape would have to continue for at least a while.
Probably other things in this canyon didn't dare to provoke the ant scorpion, and after leaving the ant scorpion's territory, for a while, they didn't sense anything else again in the dense fog. Instead, I found something else.
Shui Xin did not hesitate and turned on the "spiritual vision".
The extra third eye didn't feel burned, and of course I couldn't see any normal scenery. At this time, in her "spiritual vision", the entire canyon was also shrouded in a layer of dark golden mist, and there were many bright lines intertwined in her vision, but she couldn't see what it was.
Only one thing is certain, the place where the lines are intertwined should be the prohibition that was reactivated after being transferred by the spiritual vein, right?
Looking back, sure enough, where the ants and scorpions stopped, there were also quite complex lines.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Xiao asked.
"All the normal plants are dead, and there are no roots left. Shui Xin replied quickly.
Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows, "It's all poisoned like this, if there are any ordinary plants left, then it's weird, right?"
"But have you ever heard of a poison that specifically picks ordinary plants to corrode?" Shui Xin pursed her lips, a little triumphant, "Judging from the matter of corpse Gu and the sea of blood, I bet that if this kind of poison appears, there will definitely be a large area of it used in the mountains and forests, and all the ordinary plants will be corroded, and the remaining spirit plants will be very conspicuous." Anyway, if you look at this blockbuster, if it's a toxin, it's definitely not expensive. β
Gu Xiao rarely had a time when he was speechless.
However, he is indeed difficult to argue with now.
β...... What do you think of this situation?"
"I don't know. Shui Xin's toes tapped lightly, and she touched a small grass that was very ordinary in her senses. Such a small grass has a clump, which is very inconspicuous and fragile, but it is a first-order spirit plant.
Shui Xin now understands very well that the so-called spirit plant does not mean that it is very tough and more difficult to destroy than ordinary plants. The only criterion is the aura concentration.
A high concentration of aura does not necessarily mean that the medicinal properties are necessarily stronger. While this law of increase is generally followed, it is not absolute. What's more, "medicinal properties" are not "properties", but only the usefulness of the monks to the monks.
For example, the toxin of the ant scorpion can paralyze a qi cultivator by a few degrees, but what level of poisonous insect is the ant scorpion? It is not even a first-order!
The medicinal properties are the same.
But with a high-grade elixir, or a high-grade elixir with a high concentration of aura, it is certain that it is easier to refine high-grade elixirs through alchemy.
So, to say that toxins also distinguish the concentration of Reiki...... It seems a little too incredible.
Xu Hao, which of these guys is not full of aura? Don't you also have to protect your body all the time.
"There are still too few clues - Xu Hao also said this problem. Shui Xin sighed in her heart (the "tone" is not reflected), "Anyway, let's go again." β
Gu Xiao's "eyes" swept over the position where Shui Xin touched lightly, and he was also thoughtful and did not speak again.
&
Gu Xiao said that there was no Hongchen Nianhuo here, and the aura was also contaminated with toxins and could not be used, so he didn't take a step and said a word more was consuming (although he didn't see him say a few words less).
And although Bai Hanzhang didn't say anything, the fact that he once again became like gold is quite revealing.
So next, it became Shui Xin's journey to death alone.
After all, only she can rely on combat replenishment.
Whenever she touched a place where the aura lines were intertwined, she leaned over to see what was going on. So he encountered two manic demon insects and three manic demon beasts. and some empty, broken prohibitions.
There is no doubt that they are still late, and everything has already been preempted.
The only good thing is that these remaining demon insects and demon beasts are quite powerful. Especially those three manic demon beasts, Shui Xin didn't even know the variety, but it was obviously a family, all of them were at the peak of the fourth order, not only their combat power was outstanding, but they were also highly poisonous, and most importantly, they even knew how to use the formation!
Shui Xin obviously saw a high concentration of spiritual gas inside, but she could only regret and retreat.
It's not that you can't kill those three demon beasts, but the price will definitely be very high.
She reaped a hearty battle, and it was enough. If you continue to fight, you will put the cart before the horse.
Moreover, after encountering these three demon beasts......
"Don't you think it's strange here?" Shui Xin couldn't help but wonder, "It's like the forces of the entire canyon have been reintegrated, and all the powerful things have been locked up in various prohibitions, which is not quite the same as what Xu Hao said - of course, it may be that the rest have been plowed by the people in front of us." But where have they gone? I thought I would run into an ambush by Mu Zeteng. β
Gu Xiao sneered, "Do you still think this is a killing array?"
No, it doesn't feel like it anymore. Although there is a feeling of killing the formation, there is still something missing after all.
Shui Xin thought about it seriously, and her face was full of dishes, "I think, since Tianji is almost the same here from ancient times to the present, then, if there is a topographical change or something, there should also be a record, right?" )
