After a brief silence, Luo Guan said: "Cousin, what do you want to do next?"
"I want revenge." Xia Xue's tone was calm, but the determination in it was as unshakable as the mountains. "The ancestors of the Yuanxia Palace should not die like this. I must let everyone who has led all this be punished. There is a punishment.”
Luo Guan smiled bitterly, "Cousin, you should know what kind of powerful enemy you will face if you choose this path?"
"So what if we are enemies of the world? We warriors live to die, but we must get justice!" Xia Xue looked at him, "If you don't want to help me, you can leave on your own. From now on, this matter will have nothing to do with you. .”
Luo Guan rubbed his face, "I always feel that if you are so passionate, I should be the one to speak up, otherwise I will look like a loser."
He exhaled, "I have always valued affection and justice, and I am very reciprocal. My cousin has helped me a lot. How could I leave you at the critical moment? Alas, we are like this. , there is really nothing we can do.”
Seeing the troubled look on his face, Xia Xue smiled like a snow lotus blooming, "Luo Guan, I really saw you right."
"Come on, follow me!"
Luo Guan touched his nose guiltily and said to himself that I promised to help you get revenge because I had offended some people so hard that it was difficult for me to stay out of it.
Not to mention the news that real dragons still exist in the world. It's like a bomb that will explode at some point. I also need help.
Besides, even if you agree to help, you won’t necessarily fight to the end. If the situation goes wrong, it shouldn’t be too difficult to ask Ah Da to open the way and escape, right? .
Xia Xue frowned, turned around and said, "What are you standing there for? Let's go."
"...Oh, I got it." Luo Guan hurriedly followed.
Soon the two came to the top of Jiyang Mountain, outside a ruined hall. Obvious traces of flames could be seen around it, which was where Elder Xu Zhou died.
Yuanxia Palace inherits the ancestral palace!
Xia Xue stepped on the ground, and the ground shook with a "boom", and powerful force exploded, sweeping away the mess on the ground, revealing a passage leading underground.
Originally, there was a powerful formation seal outside this passage, but it has been forcibly destroyed, and only a few scattered auras are flashing.
The two entered it, passed through the long passage, and a formation appeared in front of them.
The formation is complex and occupies a large area. Unfortunately, it was destroyed long ago like the formation at the entrance. You can see traces of the jade dissolving on the array plate after being burned by high temperatures. This should also be the handiwork of the late Elder Xu Zhou, but He had lost control of himself at that time and was manipulated by the cultivators of the Holy Land.
Xia Xue said: "This formation is the foundation of Jiyang Mountain and the hub of the entire Sect Protecting Formation. It can help this palace gain the blessing of the power of the first realm."
Luo Guan nodded. He had already guessed that this formation was hidden deep in the ancestral palace and must be extraordinary.
Um? No, the energy here... Luo Guan could feel an obscure restlessness. It was obscure because it was very weak, mixed with the smell of flames still remaining in the air, making it difficult to detect.
The restlessness was because this aura gave Luo Guan a very dangerous feeling, like a sleeping beast that would definitely eat people once he opened his eyes!
"Your perception is indeed very keen." Xia Xue raised her hand and pointed at the broken formation in front of her. "The real secret of Yuanxia Palace lies under this formation."
Then, he clenched his fist and smashed it down.
boom--
The ground shook, and the violent force was like a great tide, smashing the broken formation in front of them into pieces. The foundation of the original seal-carving formation was forcibly removed for several meters, revealing a coffin buried deep below.
It is about two meters wide and four meters long. It is completely black and has no gaps. It seems to be cut from a single log.
The moment it was exposed, a terrifying aura erupted from the black coffin, burning and burning the air, as if a blazing sun was being suppressed in the coffin!
It can be clearly seen that there are several thick formation lines that extend underground and submerge into the coffin. Obviously, the formation that protects Yuanxia Palace is closely related to this coffin. It can even be boldly guessed, Of
Therefore, the great formation has the powerful ability to bless Xia Xue, and its root is this black coffin.
In addition, the formation itself should also have the effect of suppressing the coffin's energy, sealing it, and hiding it, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago.
Luo Guan's eyes retracted from the coffin and looked at Xia Xue.
She said: "The martial arts in the world are respected by Yuan Xia... Although it sounds like a very ironic statement now, in the past years, it was also true to a certain extent. After all, the successive palace lords of Yuan Xia Palace have all reached the peak of martial arts. For a top-notch person, seven bloods are just ordinary. Within two or three generations at most, an eight-blood warrior will be born and become Wei Gai, the best in the world."
"I previously thought that the martial arts of Yuanxia Palace were prosperous, but in fact this coffin is the key... It contains the secret that can break through the eighth-blood warrior, and I am also trying to break through. Only then did I realize this.”
Luo Guandao: "What is it?"
"I don't know." Xia Xue looked at the black coffin, "I was only vaguely aware of its existence. There is a very terrifying aura hidden in it. It can be absorbed and stored by the formation, and it can become the key when the seven bloods break through the eight bloods. of help.”
Luo Guan guessed that not all Yuanxia Palace monks could discover this when trying to break through, otherwise the secret of the coffin would not have been exposed until today.
Xia Xue didn't say much. It turned out that it involved his own secret. He thought about it and said, "Cousin, do you want to take out the contents of the coffin?"
"Yes!" Xia Xue sneered, "This is one of the reasons why the Holy Land can't wait to take action today. They want to get this thing back, but I will never let them get their wish."
She stepped forward and punched.
boom--
The black coffin was shaken violently, and cracking sounds of "click" and "click" were heard from the place where the fist fell, and cracks expanded along with it.
The rich golden light emerged from it like a liquid, giving people a scorching and blazing feeling, like facing the scorching sun.
The blazing golden light spread like magma underground, spreading outward from the cracks and soon swallowing the entire coffin.
Then it was "burned" into ashes bit by bit, and more and richer golden light was released from it, like a long river bursting its banks.
In the blink of an eye, golden light filled the ground, and the existence inside the coffin finally revealed its true appearance—a golden skeleton!
Judging from the thickness of the skeleton and certain features, he should be a man, reaching an astonishing height of three meters. The remaining bones looked like they were made of gold, exuding a heart-stopping aura.
Even though he had been dead for an unknown number of years and his soul had long been annihilated, his bones still maintained a certain degree of activity - they were breathing.
The golden light emitted by the skeleton itself maintains a stable pattern, constantly shrinking and expanding.
Suddenly a terrifying thought emerged from the bottom of Luo Guan's heart. If there was no external interference, perhaps this skeleton could be resurrected after tens of millions of years!
Fortunately, the golden skeleton at this time is still just a dead object with magical powers. Even if it is taken out from the black coffin, it is only suspended in mid-air.
Xia Xue looked up at him, her face reflected in gold, adding a bit of nobility and majesty, "It was only a remains that helped the ancestors of Yuan Xia Palace in the past generations to break through the realm of eight bloods. The vastness of heaven and earth, the cultivation of It’s so lofty and unfathomable, it’s truly incredible.”
Shaking her head, she turned to look at Luo Guan, "Now, it belongs to us."
"...ours?" Luo Guan had a strange expression.
Xia Xue said: "Of course, this is the reward you deserve after making your choice."
In other words, if I don't agree, everything here has nothing to do with me, right? Cousin Xia is really straightforward when speaking.
However, I like it!
Luo Guan rubbed his hands, "Well, what should we do now? We can't dismantle it. Can you and I take it back to make soup? Ahem, and ah, this skeleton is very hard at first glance. Even if you and I are really Even if you want to take action, you may not be able to dismantle it.”
Xia Xue glared at Luo Guan, making soup? He can also say such stupid things.
"Yuan Xia Palace has a secret martial art that can extract the essence from the remains. I will split it into two, and then you and I will each take one."
Luo Guan thought for a moment and said, "How about, cousin, take more? After all, the owner of this skeleton is a peak martial artist, so it should be of greater benefit to you."
"Half is enough." Xia Xue shook her head and looked at Luo Guan, "In the future, when you finally have the thought of breaking through, you must cultivate an indestructible body so that you can successfully accommodate your soul and achieve the unity of spirit and appearance."
As she spoke, the martial arts will was condensed above her head, and she grabbed the golden skeleton with both hands, "Reverse the martial arts training, seize the essence and lock the essence!"
Buzz——
The powerful sacrificial aura suddenly erupted.
