After the immortal disappeared

Di Ju lowered his head towards the puppet, and the tip of his nose was so hot that his hair was curled: "If you dare to make me happy..."

"You think I'm full and I'm here to play with you?" He Lingchuan interrupted, "Even if I fail, I will be the unlucky one. What can you lose? The worst result is that you continue to stay. Playing in the mud here and missing two bites of rice, what's the difference from usual?"

There was a lot of white steam coming out of his body, and he didn't know if it was caused by gas.

But in the end, it dug out a small piece of solid rock from its heart, kneaded it in its paws for a long time, and then took a long breath at it.

With a muffled "click" sound, the thing landed in front of the puppet.

"Here, take it."

Seeing that the puppet wanted to wrap it up with clothes, it added: "It's not hot."

The flames and heat were sucked away, leaving only a black stone ball at the puppet's feet.

He picked up the stone ball and it was only warm, about the temperature of a hand warmer.

But the cracks on the surface of the stone ball occasionally glow with a red light.

"This is the earth fire seed, and it is also my clone." Tuoju walked back to the magma pool, dived down, and there was no shadow, only the voice echoed, "Take it with you, as long as you don't leave the boundary of Lingxu City, I will I can talk to you."

The puppet quickly walked back to the ground.

When he left the cave, the clear water quickly rose back up.

In just a few dozen breaths, the pool was filled with hot spring water again.

The cave door is closed.

The puppet climbed back along the original path, and finally walked through the stone beam and came to Tianji Peak.

There was no fear in being photographed, and he passed the crucian carp's back effortlessly.

He stood there numbly, surrounded by tourists coming and going, still holding the piece of earth fire seed in his hand.

But now it is just a dull gray boulder, and no one pays attention to it.

Suddenly, someone hit the puppet from behind, and the stone disappeared.

The puppet was startled and suddenly woke up.

what happened?

He only remembered the weird boy standing in front of him and calling him for help. How come the next second, I am in Tianji Peak?

He scratched his head inexplicably, but found that a few strands of hair were burnt and some were curled.

Strangely enough, can hot springs scorch your hair?

Anyway, I'm safe for now. The man clenched his fists. He had to go down the mountain quickly and settle the score with the couple who were seeking wealth and murder!

A few feet ahead, He Lingchuan followed the crowd with his hands behind his back, looking very leisurely.

As soon as he got close to the puppet, the sacred bone necklace became hot.

This glutton has fallen in love with the Earth Fire Seed again?

But after He Lingchuan snatched the round stone egg from the puppet's hand, he stuffed it into the soul-telling mirror immediately.

Yes, the soul-capturing mirror has undergone several major repairs, and the soul world in the mirror has been partially repaired. You can put a little something in without affecting its operation.

He Lingchuan didn't stuff the stone egg into the sacred bone necklace because he was afraid that the big square pot would be digested after eating it.

The soul-capturing mirror doesn't have that ability. The most important thing is that it is obedient. He Lingchuan can deposit it and take it out at any time.

Then, he heard Juju's voice coming from the mirror.

Of course, only he can hear it.

"This is...hunxiang?" Diju was a little surprised, "You kid, you don't even show your face?"

This "collaborator" let the puppet go down to the cave, but he didn't care at all. It is hidden underground, but the earth fire seeds given to He Lingchuan are its eyes and ears. As long as He Lingchuan takes it with him and talks to it, Ju Ju will naturally know what he looks like and where he is.

Unexpectedly, the real master was hiding on Tianji Peak and threw the stone directly into the Soul Country with lightning speed. This inexplicable soul land is full of paper figures flying around, and it can't see any living things.

Fortunately, it can still talk to He Lingchuan through the mirror.

The existence of Hunxiang also cuts off its positioning sensor. It only knows that the Earth Fire Seed finally appeared on Tianji Peak, but there are so many tourists here, who took it?

"I'm sorry." He Lingchuan said softly, "You were suppressed by the Spirit Gathering Formation and had to guard the door for the gods. You must have been unable to do so at times. I'd better be cautious."

This is a euphemism for "I'm afraid you'll betray me."

Diju snorted, not too disgusted.

The more careful the partner is, the greater the chance of success.

The Heavenly Palace must be on guard against any contact with the outside world. Look, you can't prevent it after all, right?

If you can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you prevent a thief for a thousand days?

…

After returning home, He Lingchuan turned down Fu Shanyue's banquet and Jiao Yu's play on the pretext of practicing martial arts, and locked himself in the house.

The door of the room was closed tightly, and he casually placed a barrier before saying to the mirror: "I want to say a few words to Yuju."

After a while, Xushan Shanze's muddy voice came from the mirror:

"I'm sleeping, you better be okay."

"Let's check the information about the formation." He Lingchuan said softly, "The plan needs to be perfected."

When he first came to Lingxu City, he only had two goals in his mind. As more and more information is obtained, the plan gradually takes shape.

He called this the Xushan Project.

Juju let out a long yawn: "Tell me."

"The Great Spirit Gathering Formation is not an original creation of Tiangong. The idea of ​​the Beidou Formation was first proposed by the Great Return Sect. The spiritual energy has been declining in the Middle Ages. The Great Return Sect wanted to gather all the spiritual energy within five hundred miles for his own use. Unfortunately, their Beidou Formation The method has been set up many times but has never been successful.”

"If you want to borrow the power of the stars, the formations on the ground must echo and coordinate with the stars." Tuo Ju is also considered a veteran of the Great Return Sect and has the most say on this matter. "In ancient times, the Great Return Sect used the Spirit Gathering Great After the unparalleled catastrophe, the stars are in chaos. The most important thing is that the nine stars of the Big Dipper have become ten stars, and there is an invisible Tianluo star. If the formation cannot correspond to the sky and the earth, it will not be effective."

"But Tiangong succeeded in creating the great spirit gathering formation, because it corresponds to the Tianluo star with the formation eye, and put the remains of the ancient spider demon into the formation eye as a referral to communicate with heaven and earth." He Lingchuan thought carefully, "Spider A star map is born on the belly of the slough, which corresponds to the stars in the sky in real time, exactly. With it in charge, the Heavenly Palace does not need to deduce the changes in the stars when making formations."

Before coming to Lingxu City, he still felt strange that there was no treasure in this first city in the world, so why did he insist on robbing Zhu Erniang's body? Are the powerful people here really eager to see the treasure and grab it without caring about it?

Now he knows the magic of spider slough.

"How do you know?" Tuo Ju asked curiously. This boy was not unprepared for what he was doing. "There are very few people who know the origin of the spider slough. Even the officials who were responsible for building the formation eye at that time only knew that it was an ancient and rare object. There are less than two construction officials who can accurately tell the function of the 'spider slough'."

"That's because I was lucky enough to ask about these two people." He Lingchuan breathed a sigh of relief. This confirmed his conclusion. Zhu Erniang's body was indeed within sight of the array.

The next step will be easier if the goal is clear.

Ju Ju shook his head: "In the past ten years, one person died of illness, and the remaining official died suddenly. On the seventh day after his death, someone sneaked up to Xu Mountain and was caught."

Meaning, there were invaders who tortured and killed informed officials, obtained information about the formation, and then sneaked into Xu Mountain? He Lingchuan's heart moved: "Do you know the origin of the intruder?"

Di Ju didn't answer and asked instead: "Are you on the same side as him?"

"No." He Lingchuan sighed, "To be honest, my information came from the suffering master, the owner of the corpse."

If he wanted to cooperate well with Diju, he had to show sincerity to the other party and not just use empty cannons.

Like telling part of the truth.

Juju was very surprised: "Huh? That female spider is still alive?"

Apparently it has also heard of Zhu Erniang's name.

Considering that these two people are both ancient demons, it cannot be ruled out that they had some old friendship in the past.

"It is free and has a territory, and it lives quite well." He Lingchuan touched his nose, "But it always remembered the body that was taken away, and it was wanted, so it was difficult to set foot in Bejia, so it asked me to try to find it. "

"It's Lord Wood Spirit, and it's a female spider. I hear your voice is not very old, but you have already helped many old guys with things?" Ju Ju hummed, "In this case, you should know what is the difficulty in breaking the formation. ?”

"Where is the formation eye?" He Lingchuan asked it, "I heard that it is usually covered by the formation. It will only appear when the Tianluo star shines. Hmm, can't you even find it?"

"It's me that Tiangong is wary of." Tuo Ju sneered, "If I can destroy the formation eye, what will they do to suppress me? If I can't find it, the next best thing is to make sure that I can't touch the formation eye, even if I have been captured by the formation eye. Legally bound!”

Those guys in Tiangong are really cautious.

He Lingchuan sighed: "So, the formation eye is in the sky?"

Yes, he was surprised by this piece of information when he heard the nightmare retelling the information that Zaifu boasted about.

Probably very few people in the world knew that the main body of the Spirit Gathering Formation was on the ground, consisting of nine peaks including Tianshu Peak, but its formation eye was floating in the air and its whereabouts were uncertain!

"That's right. Tianluo Star is a hidden star, and the formation eye corresponding to it has always been hidden in the void." Juju said, "Only when Tianluo Star lights up, the formation eye will appear."

If it were on the ground, it would be able to find the formation by digging 300 feet!

"Unless Tianluo Star lights up, you won't be able to find the Formation Eye above Xu Mountain."

"I remember that every autumn and winter, the Tianluo star always shines brightly?" He Lingchuan asked it, "What about the star? Is it just hanging in the sky?"

"How is that possible?" Diju sneered, "It's invisible."

"Why?" He Lingchuan asked further, "Is it still hiding in the void, or is it already floating in the sky, but invisible to the naked eye?"

Juju remained silent.

How could He Lingchuan allow such a critical question to be ignored? He asked again.

Tuoju then said reluctantly: "Anyway, in the more than ten years since the Spirit Gathering Formation was built, I have only seen it twice."

Since I couldn’t see it before, I naturally had no way of starting.

"All recently?"

"For nearly four months."

He Lingchuan understood that it was the two times when Dafang Pot's aura leaked.

In other words, Yanju didn’t know what the state of the formation was in autumn and winter.
