The stone wall is still thirty feet high.

Gou Xie closed his eyes tightly, his consciousness swept over the burning gravel in front of him, and his slender willow eyebrows trembled slightly.

By now, she was quite exhausted.

Her consciousness must not only control the terrifying Nanyin Lihuo, but also manipulate the continuous gravel, carefully observe the result of the gravel turning into ash, and even secretly monitor the two princes who are working.

She never trusted anyone, so naturally she had to prevent these two people from hiding the little bluestone secretly.

How can a soul who has just taken over his body not be tired when he has to take care of all the things at the same time?

Therefore, when clouds of white smoke suddenly appeared from the attic, her reaction was slightly delayed.

It wasn't until the two princes stopped casting spells and made a fuss and called to her that Gou Xie woke up from a dream and jumped into the air.

At this time, the cloud window and fog threshold were already looming in the attic.

Gou Xie was not surprised but overjoyed. This once again proved that the little bluestone was still in the stone wall!

All these actions are just a desperate struggle!

She is not worried about Xiao Qingshi breaking into the attic. There are many agencies in that place, and he might get trapped somewhere, just in time to catch a turtle in an urn.

Of course, you cannot let the other party do what you want.

She pinched her fingertips, and a strong wind swept towards the second and third level phantom formations that blocked her sight.

Although Lihuo was more effective, it would burn down the attic, and she didn't want to do that for a while.

At this moment, a muffled sound of "bang" suddenly came from the white mist, as if some door was closing.

Gou Xie was stunned for a moment, then woke up and couldn't help but secretly screamed "Oops!"

The clouds have cleared and the fog has cleared, and the sarcophagus at the bottom of the attic is shaking slightly.

The coffin lid has been tightly closed.

With a thought in Gou Xie's mind, his consciousness quickly wrapped the sarcophagus and pulled hard——

The sarcophagus was motionless.

This means that there is someone inside the coffin, and the sarcophagus cannot be stored away by ordinary space instruments.

Then she pushed with her palms, and the coffin lid also didn't move at all.

Not only are there people, but they are also very familiar with the sarcophagus prohibition!

When Yang Zhen was telling the story of escaping from the underground palace in a sarcophagus, many places were briefly mentioned, and Qin Mingyue had no intention of asking in detail.

Now it seems that this kid is so cunning!

Gou Xie couldn't help but feel a great hatred in his heart. He punched out several restraints one after another, drawing most of the suppressive power from the attic onto the sarcophagus.

After doing this, she was still worried and stared straight ahead without blinking.

After a while, there was no movement from the sarcophagus, with no intention of getting up and flying away.

"Don't they have the best spiritual stones?"

Gou Xie was overjoyed! However, being suspicious by nature, she always felt that something was wrong.

How could anyone crawl in here even though they knew it was a dead end? Is it possible that he would have to hide in the sarcophagus for the rest of his life?

She glanced around suspiciously. The two princes were leaning weakly on the stone wall, their eyes constantly looking up.

Suddenly, something moved in her heart——

Sacrifice the soldiers to protect the commander, and divert the tiger away from the mountain?

"You two, keep working and don't slack off!" she immediately scolded.

After a while, the familiar bombardment sounded again, and Gouxie returned to the lake again, continuing to burn the gravel.

Everything seems to be the same as it was half a quarter of an hour ago.

As for the sarcophagus, the pestle can't escape there anyway! What does it matter if it's a moment earlier or a moment later?

Seriously, if I were deceived by your crude tactics, wouldn’t it make people laugh out loud!



Inside the sarcophagus

If it were Qin Mingyue himself, he would definitely not think that this was a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Because the person who can hide in the sarcophagus and understand the restrictions must be someone close to Yang Zhen.

There was no way he was using it as bait.

In fact, they are already in sarcophagi.

Yang Zhen, Yiyi, and Zixue are in the coffin, and everyone else is hiding in the space.

Zixue sat on the ground with her eyes closed tightly, her hands drawing arcs at her Dantian from time to time, her expression extremely focused.

Yang Zhen held in her hand a wooden mallet about the size of a foot, shiny black and shaped like a wooden fish, and looked at it carefully.

"This is Shenqi Muxin, the eighth-level spiritual tree?" he asked curiously.

"Yes, the wisp of Divine Heart Fire that we sealed the day before yesterday was generated by this tree under the bombardment of sky thunder." Yiyi said.

"Why did this thing appear here?"

"In addition to cultivating the heart fire of Shenqi, the heart of Shenqi wood also has a more important function, which is to store the soul." Yiyi explained: "Especially the Shenqi wood that has been struck by thunder has extremely strong resistance to thunder and lightning. With its strong resistance, there is no need to worry about being struck by lightning again. It is a very safe place for ghosts to rest their souls."

Yang Zhen suddenly realized, her face suddenly became extremely gloomy, she grabbed the piece of spiritual wood with both hands and wanted to break it into two pieces!

There is no doubt that Qin Mingyue, who was unconscious at the time, was taken advantage of by the ghost hiding here and took her body by force!

Damn, hateful!

At this time, the small stick that had been flying up and down in the coffin and beating everywhere flew over triumphantly:

"All the restrictions in the sarcophagus have been opened by me! The old monster who took the body has no physical body but a golden elixir cultivation level. It will take at least four or five hours to open the lid of the coffin!"

"She also has two helpers at the Golden Core stage." Yiyi knocked on the top of its head.

"Uh," Xiao Bangzi's voice faltered: "Maybe two, two hours is enough!"

It flew to Zixue listlessly: "Sister, are two hours enough?"

Zixue had already entered a state of trance and ignored its inquiry.

"Okay, please be quiet for a while." Yiyi grabbed the small stick, changed it to the size of a fingernail, and stuffed it into Yang Zhen's ear.

In the darkness, two pairs of bright eyes looked at each other.

The situation is not optimistic.

Two hours, even if given twice as much time, four hours, Zixue might still be too late.

But they had no choice at the time.

Now, it's time to prepare for the worst.

"Brother," Xiao Xiancao asked through voice transmission: "If the sarcophagus is opened and Xiao Qingshi is found by the old monster who took away the body, and she threatens to leave the fire, what should we do?"

Yang Zhen frowned. The problem of Yiyi was also the worry in his heart.

With a long sigh, he also replied through voice transmission: "In that case, I can only come out of the space and negotiate with her."

"What if she asks you to hand over the method of controlling space?"

"This..." Yang Zhen's face became even more ugly.

Handing over the method of control would undoubtedly expose Yiyi's existence, which he was absolutely unwilling to do.

He and Yiyi have a completely equal partnership. The two of them support each other and trust each other. There is never a situation where one controls the other or is the master of the other.

However, if Yiyi fell into the hands of those powerful monks, they might not be like him, and they would probably force her to sign a soul contract to firmly control her.

Yiyi would never accept this humiliation.

Even though Xiao Xiancao usually looks like a little girl, and sometimes gets teased by Zhao Yue'er and Zixue, and he often flicks her forehead to bully her, in fact she has quite a temper.

The little fairy grass in her previous life was fearless in front of the Immortal Emperor. Now that she has awakened the memory of her past life, how could she succumb to an old monster that takes away her body?

However, if you continue to resist, the lives of 100,000 people in the bluestone space, the life and death of Zhao Yue'er, Zixue, and Qing Xiaoling, the other party has so many chips in her hands, what can you use to compete with her?

As for how several Zifus joined forces, the 125-person Great Five Elements Formation, etc., they were just a few more dead bodies in front of Li Huo who could burn almost everything.

There weren't even dead bodies, just countless tiny ashes.

Yang Zhen glared angrily and gnashed her teeth, clenching her hands tightly, but she was at a loss for a moment.

This is almost a dead end.

As long as the little bluestone falls into the opponent's hands, they lose.

unless--

Yang Zhen's heart moved, a trace of determination flashed across her face, but her tone was calm and composed, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her:

"Since the old monster has read Mingyue's memory, she must think that I am the controller of space. If I die, she can no longer threaten me with space, so she has to find a way to figure it out on her own. In that case, Xiao Qingshi will definitely be able to save it, everyone. You can be safe and sound.”

"So I……"

"No -" Yiyi's eyes widened, and his face was filled with anger: "Brother, don't think nonsense, you are not allowed to die! Yiyi will not let you die!"

"But if I don't die, the old monster will threaten me with bluestone. I, Yang Zhen, swear to 'protect' in this life. As long as I can protect you, protect Yue'er Zixue Xiaoling and the others, and protect the hundreds of thousands of people in this space." Ping An, my Yang Zhen’s mere life, what’s the point?”

"Brother," Yiyi's eyes were red, her little head rested on Yang Zhen's shoulder, and she took a bite with force, her tone was both angry and extremely gentle:

"Why are you so stupid? Yiyi said you won't die, so you won't die!"

"I have a secret method that can not only save our lives, but also allow us to completely escape the control of the old monster!"

PS: There are some plots later that I haven’t thought through clearly yet. I’ll revise them tomorrow. That’s all for today. Sorry.
