The palace on the top of the mountain looked dilapidated and in disrepair.
Ye Yunxiu observed from a distance for a while and found that no one was coming in or out around the palace, and he didn't find anything unusual, so he carefully lowered his figure.
“What a big building!”
He looked at the palace in front of him with a slight surprise on his face.
I didn't notice it when I was far away, but when I got closer, I realized that the construction of these buildings was much larger than I imagined.
The style of these buildings is a bit like ancient Greek buildings, but whether they are steps or doorways, everything looks extremely large, as if an ordinary house has been enlarged by about two to three times.
Ye Yunxiu made the secret in his hand, and the dark energy in his body was vibrating, while he was ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
"Huh? What is that?"
He looked at one of them and found that there were some slight dark energy fluctuations in the main hall in front of him, and in terms of shape, it looked a bit like a human being.
He immediately walked over. This person was probably the original owner of these houses. Since he came to the Aqua Blue Planet, he naturally had to know something about the other party.
These palaces were overgrown with weeds, covered with dust and cracked, and Ye Yunxiu could hear the cracking of stone bricks under his feet with every step he took.
The breeze from the mountains blows, and countless dust scatters, making people wonder whether they will collapse at any time.
After entering the palace store, the original appearance of the place was completely lost. We could only vaguely see some ravine-like things through the weeds on the ground, and we didn't know what they were used for.
Finally, when Ye Yunxiu came to the source of the dark energy fluctuations, he discovered that it turned out to be a tall stone statue.
"A stone statue? Could it be Uter?"
He immediately thought of a kind of monster recorded in the alien manual. They seemed to have the ability to attach to objects.
"No, it shouldn't be Utter... The Alien Species Manual clearly mentions that objects attached to Utter will have an obvious dark energy core, but this stone statue does not..."
However, Ye Yunxiu quickly rejected his previous thoughts. The stone statue he saw in front of him was obviously not consistent with Erte's characteristics and should be something else.
He looked at the stone statue carefully again.
Judging from the appearance, this thing should be a human being. The limbs, head, facial features, and even a thick beard are all lifelike.
It's just that this person feels very strange. His height reaches about 5 meters, which is about the same as a traffic light at an intersection. It can be said to be a huge sculpture.
Moreover, although the appearance of this sculpture is the same as that of a human being, its body structure is a bit disproportionate, as if a dwarf has been enlarged several times.
However, since these features are all placed on a statue, there is actually nothing to be surprised about. After all, there are many extra-large giant statues on Aquamarine, and he has seen even bigger ones before.
What's a little strange is that after he entered the statue, the dark energy fluctuations in it fluctuated slightly, as if it sensed his presence.
"Something weird."
Ye Yunxiu cautiously took two steps back. At the same time, the dark energy fluctuations on the statue became larger.
He frowned, and then took out a small transparent bottle from the pocket of the fearless suit, which contained a small golden butterfly.
He opened the bottle, and a small amount of dark energy was injected into the butterfly.
He said something to the butterfly again, and the butterfly immediately climbed out of the bottle.
It spread its wings, scattered golden powder, then rose into the sky and disappeared in a flash.
This is a messenger butterfly. Although it looks like a butterfly, it is not actually a living creature. It is a product of dark energy that can be used to transmit messages over long distances.
Zhang Xiaoman bought this from the gang store. It's not expensive and only requires a portion of Stardust.
Each awakened person will be issued a bottle, which is specifically used to communicate in such an environment where a watch cannot be used, so that support can be obtained at any time.
The small bottle containing the messenger butterfly also has an origin, that is, it is the small bottle used by the system to store stardust.
This bottle is very sturdy, transparent, compact and easy to carry.
After Zhang Xiaoman finished using Stardust, the bottle did not disappear with it, but remained and was used by him as a daily container.
Since there are a large number of bottles and they have no other uses, members of the Covenant can also use them by themselves. They are usually used to store potions or materials needed to perform dark energy spells. The solar essences are assembled from this bottle. of.
After Ye Yunxiu felt the dark energy fluctuations of the stone statue in front of him, he did not raise his eyebrows, but immediately sent out a messenger butterfly. The butterfly would actively contact the nearest awakened person, and he believed that reinforcements would arrive soon.
While waiting, he felt the dark energy fluctuations in the stone statue oscillate several times, as if his arrival had attracted the other party's attention.
He could clearly detect that the intensity of the dark energy fluctuations of this stone statue was similar to his own. If converted to a different species level, it should be considered a late-level second-level monster.
Although Ye Yunxiu has practiced "Tianyuan Taihe Chapter", he has not awakened dark energy for a long time, and the learning time is short, so he is not completely sure about dealing with the opponent.
Therefore, the best way for him to do now is to wait. As long as the support comes, the two awakened people are here, and they should not be afraid of what trouble the other party will cause.
The dark energy in the stone statue stirred for a moment, but there was no reaction from Ye Yunxiu. He also stopped and stopped making any movement.
Time passed like this minute by minute.
After waiting for less than a minute, he felt a familiar breath suddenly coming from beside him. When he turned around to look, he found that Zhang Xiaoman was already standing on his left side.
"Star Master? Why did you come here in person!"
Ye Yunxiu was surprised. He didn't expect that the messenger butterfly he released would actually summon his boss.
What he originally thought was that as long as any awakened person came, even if it was a member who had just completed the spiritual enlightenment ceremony, with the cooperation of the two of them, they could use this stone statue.
Unexpectedly, it was his boss who came, so there was nothing to worry about now. If the boss took action, I believe that even if this guy has three heads and six arms, he would have no choice but to be captured.
"I happened to be nearby. I received the communication butterfly you released, so I came directly. What happened? Did I encounter a troublesome alien species?"
After Zhang Xiaoman finished speaking, he looked around and saw no movement from him. A golden light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he had already taken in the surrounding environment.
"It seems that this is the top of the mountain. Is the question you are talking about about the stone statue over there?"
Ye Yunxiu nodded and said:
"Yes, this stone statue looks very weird. In the entire mountaintop palace, it is the only one with dark energy. And after seeing me, the dark energy fluctuations changed. I suspect it may be a dark spiritual item. .”
He quickly told Zhang Xiaoman what he had learned along the way.
The dark spirit items he mentioned are naturally those props whose owner's dark energy can fluctuate. For example, the Xuan Weapon used by the Awakeners of the Star Alliance is a dark spirit weapon.
After Zhang Xiaoman heard what he said, he pondered for a moment, then suddenly shook his head and said:
"No, this is not a dark creature, he should be..."
He said as he stepped forward and approached the stone statue on his own initiative.
Upon seeing this, Ye Yunxiu subconsciously wanted to warn him, but he suddenly realized that the person in front of him was the boss of the Star Alliance, and his worries were completely unnecessary, so he swallowed the words that reached his throat.
Not far away, after sensing Zhang Xiaoman's approach, the stone statue once again emitted dark energy fluctuations, looking very anxious.
"He is trying to communicate with me...I know, it seems you have been sealed for a long time..."
Zhang Xiaoman felt the emotions conveyed by the other party, and already had concerns in his heart.
Ye Yunxiu from behind heard this and his eyes widened slightly.
"Star Lord, you, you mean..."
"Yes, this is not a stone statue, but a sealed living person."
After Zhang Xiaoman finished speaking, he looked at the giant dwarf more than five meters tall and added:
"Well, let's consider him a human first..."
He lifted his feet off the ground and floated in front of the stone statue's head. He raised his hand and launched several dark energy spells, which engulfed the stone statue one after another.
However, after waiting for a while, he discovered that the formulas he had just used had no effect. The stone statue remained motionless and showed no reaction at all.
"Treatment, repair, and destruction are all useless. Do we need to smash the stone statue directly?"
Zhang Xiaoman muttered secretly, but a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Boy, this is an immortal-level seal. With your current strength, you don't even think about breaking it. However, you can also break it. But it's hard to say whether the person who was sealed will still be alive when you break it. ”
Zhang Xiaoman raised his eyebrows and responded:
"Ni Yang, it seems you know this very well? Do you know how to get rid of it?"
"Hehehehe, as the most powerful divine beast in the immortal world, how can it be possible that a small immortal seal cannot be broken? What's more, it's a broken restriction from a thousand years ago?"
"In my heyday, I wouldn't even bother to take a second look at this kind of thing. I just stand still and seal it for them, but they can't seal me."
Zhang Xiaoman felt a little helpless when he saw this guy starting to brag again after a disagreement.
Niyang's soul was placed in the leader Yujue. When he returned to Aquamarine Star wearing the Yujue, he was surprised to find that the other party had also returned with him and was able to communicate with him normally.
In other words, Ni Yang used another method to bypass the Ten Thousand Tribulation Spirit Locking Formation and left the God Ancient Star.
Unable to resist the other party's nagging, he would sometimes let go of the restrictions on its spiritual thoughts, allowing it to occasionally "come out for some air" and experience some of this completely different world.
However, this old dragon can be really verbose at times. He will start to brag after just a few words in a normal conversation, which will make Zhang Xiaoman immediately close his mind again.
"Okay, Niyang, since you have a way to lift the seal, let's try it. This guy's restriction is broken, so I can ask him about the situation of this mountain."
He began to urge.
"Hey, boy, do you need to use me now? I usually ask you to respect me more, but you just don't listen. Now I am not in the mood to do such a thing, so you should find a way on your own."
Zhang Xiaoman had a black line on his head, and then his spiritual thoughts sent him a message, threatening:
"Ni Yang, do you think I'm easy to talk to? Can you resolve it? If not, don't even think about reading Journey to the West in the future."
Upon hearing what he said about Journey to the West, Niyang's expression suddenly froze, and the little green dragon in the jade device changed into an eager look and said:
"No, no, no, no, I've been bored for thousands of years. It's rare that something can relieve my boredom. How can you deprive me of my only pastime!"
Zhang Xiaoman pouted.
"Then please hurry up and help me break this seal. Didn't you say you don't even bother to look at it? It shouldn't be difficult to break it."
The green little dragon's face changed a little, showing an embarrassed expression, and said:
"This...didn't I just say it...that was during my heyday, and this has been sealed for thousands of years. The wounds left by the Zhuxian Sword Array haven't healed yet, so how can I have the energy to break the seal? …”
When Zhang Xiaoman heard this, he showed an expression that said it was true. He didn't expect it anymore and was ready to think of another solution on his own.
However, Ni Yang was a little anxious, fearing that he would not be able to see anything anymore, so he quickly made up for it:
"Boy, don't be too busy leaving yet. Actually, I have another way. I don't know if you can do it."
"I?"
Zhang Xiaoman was confused.
"You mean, let me break the seal?"
The cyan dragon nodded seriously.
"That's right! It's you who will crack it."
"Although this is an immortal-level restriction, so much time has passed and it has already reached the edge of loosening. I believe that even if you don't crack it, it will be almost unblocked on its own in a few decades."
"Although I can't use my power to help you crack it now, I can tell you the method. If you follow my method, you should be able to crack it."
After listening to his words, Zhang Xiaoman understood the other party's intention and nodded in agreement.
"Boy, you've got a big advantage this time. My cracking method is beyond comparison with mortal skills. If you learn this trick of mine, you will be able to crack the seal restrictions at the level below the Golden Immortal in the future."
"Of course, whether you can succeed or not depends on your own strength. You must not force it, otherwise you will suffer backlash."
As the green dragon spoke, he drew a series of complex figures in his mind and continued:
"Boy, remember, this move is called the Destruction of Illusions. With your current strength, you can't use it completely. I'll teach you a weaker version first. Whether you can learn it or not depends on your talent. "
