"By the way, Hun Li. I have forgotten about that person from the Qi clan these days. Let's go to Kubu Zong in two days, right?"
"Two days later? Today is the fifth day of July, and in three days it will be the eighth day of July."
The eighth day of July! I forgot about it. Chang Sheng suddenly felt a little depressed.
The eighth day of July last year was the first time in Changsheng's 18 years that no accidental death occurred.
However, the sudden opening of the nine-story black tower in the Consciousness Sea on that day made Changsheng feel a little worried.
In the sea of consciousness, the immortal thought came to the black tower.
The interior of the Black Tower is still spotless, and the Suzaku reliefs on the six blue brick walls remain the same.
The color of the red bird is red and orange, like a flame rising high in the sky. Three long tail feathers are graceful and elegant, and a pair of wings are even more overwhelming.
The cluster of slightly curled phoenix crowns on the head and those bright and cold eyes still make people have the urge to worship.
And under the stone stairs leading to the second floor, there was no change in the air mass that was six or seven feet in diameter.
Although the yellow airflow on the surface of the air mass is flowing slowly, looking at it feels like time has stopped.
Changsheng thought for a while, and then he got bold and put one hand on the air mass.
There is some moisture, and it feels as soft as a cloud, and you can even press it down an inch or two.
But, that's all.
Arriving at the second floor again, the top of the stone staircase was still blocked by the yellow air flow wall.
Changsheng put his hand on the airflow wall again. It was still a little moist, as soft as clouds, and could be pressed down an inch or two.
It is also limited to this.
Returning to the first floor, Changsheng frowned and sighed.
He doesn't like such unknown things, because the most dangerous things are often the unknown ones.
"There must be a reason why you suddenly broke into my sea of consciousness, right?"
"Do you need help? Or can my sea of consciousness allow you to take refuge? Or is it related to the karma that I have on the eighth day of July every year?"
The quiet sound of a pindrop could be heard in the black tower, without a trace of response.
"After all, this is my sea of consciousness. If you forcefully enter like this, there should be an explanation, right?"
Still no response.
Changsheng originally wanted Hun Li to come in and take a look, but no one could see anything in his sea of consciousness except for the light gray mist.
This black tower broke into his sea of consciousness from the strange space on the top of Mingque Mountain. Changsheng decided to go to Kubu Zong to find out where the people from the Qi tribe were.
After coming back, go to the strange space on the top of Mingque Mountain to have a look.
"Hun Li, we are going to Kubu Zong now. No matter whether we find people from the Qi clan or not, we will be back in three days."
Changsheng and Hunli both simply disguised themselves, then came to Kubei City and found an inn to stay.
The two began to study how to find out the movements of the Qi people from the road show.
However, with Lu Zhan's great Juyuan cultivation, any conspiracy seems to be of no use in the face of absolute strength.
So Changsheng planned to use the old method, using the hidden soul method and the Tianyin bamboo hat, to go to the Lord's Mansion of Kubu City to explore.
The next day, Chang Sheng sneaked into Lu Zhan's house.
Changsheng still chose daytime.
Because only when there are many people and noisy, some slight noises and flaws will not be noticed.
Wearing a Tianyin hat and using the Soul Hiding Technique, Changsheng sneaked along the shadows and finally came to a shadow in front of Lu Zhan's house and hid in it.
There were many people coming and going in the house, but they didn't hear anything related to Yu Qi, let alone see anyone from the Qi clan.
Changsheng went back and forth in various shadows to avoid people coming and going until after they had dinner, with no result.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw an old man entering the room looking for Lu Zhan.
As soon as the immortal consciousness explored it, he felt happy. Because the old man is a member of the Qi clan left over from ancient times.
"My father-in-law, I really can't wait! It's only been a month."
Lu Zhan greeted him coldly and contemptuously.
"My uncle was joking, it was supposed to be a month, there's nothing impatient to do."
The old man said with a smile, and then took out a half-foot-long jade box and a pill bottle.
Chang Sheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this Qi Clan person was actually Lu Zhan's father-in-law!
Lu Zhan ignored the old man and unbuttoned his robe layer by layer. After a breath or two, Chang Sheng outside the room had half-opened his mouth in shock.
Because at this time Lu Zhan actually cut a piece of meat about half a foot long from his chest and put it into the jade box.
Then he cut his wrist and filled the elixir bottle with a full bottle of blood.
Damn it, in ancient times people cut meat and fed it to eagles, but now there is Luzhan who cuts meat and takes blood to feed my father-in-law!
Lu Zhan applied ointment to the wound and put on his clothes. The old man put away the jade box and elixir bottle, thanked him and was about to go out, but was stopped by Lu Zhan.
"Hua Feng, this is the last time. I have cut off your flesh and blood almost every month for 700 years. No matter how great your kindness is to me, it's time to repay it."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then said after a few breaths:
"My uncle, what you said is a bit heartbreaking. You were so exhausted by that inexplicable fear that you were almost inhuman shape."
"If I hadn't told you that the Yu family had elixirs that could cure you, you would not have survived for more than ten years. And I told you at that time that you only needed one, and you had to give me the remaining two."
"But you took them all. I also need to use the elixir to cure the hidden disease, so I can only use your flesh and blood."
Lu Zhan smiled coldly: "Don't think I'm stupid. I didn't know before, but now I know it very well."
"It was you who persuaded the Yu family and his wife to snatch the Diaoji Pill from the people of Soul Refining Island in Dongdu Continent."
"It's just that the Yu family and his wife swallowed the elixir alone. You couldn't fight them, so you used me to get the elixir."
"You were afraid that the Yu family and his wife would involve you. So you revealed their murder and pill taking to Soul Refining Island.
Hua Feng smiled, turned around and walked in front of Lu Zhan. Lu Zhan couldn't help but take two steps back.
"My uncle is indeed not stupid, but he doesn't understand the truth that disaster comes from words."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Zhan's heart suddenly trembled, and then memories began to appear in his mind.
He thought of his parents, his younger brother who died young, Yu Jingshu, and all the things he had done wrong and the people he had hurt.
Just counting the breaths, a feeling of incomparable regret spread throughout Lu Zhan's entire body and mind.
Lu Zhan began to burst into tears, then slowly squatted down, knelt on the ground and began to cry loudly.
"Why? What on earth did I do? Why did I do that?" She cried and even started to beat her chest.
Changsheng had never seen anyone so sad, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.
But the sudden tremor of Mo Longjie in the sea of consciousness made him wake up immediately.
Breaking out in a cold sweat, Chang Sheng knew that this must be caused by Hua Feng's regret for Lu Zhan.
He didn't expect that this kind of emotional energy was so powerful that it could even affect him.
"What's the use of regretting now? Can your regrets reduce the pain of those you have hurt? Those things you missed and those you hurt will always be with you."
"No, no, I'm sorry for them."
Lu Zhan stopped crying and stared blankly at the ground in front of him. After a breath or two, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped his head.
boom.
This palm almost knocked off half of his own head, and red and white goo splashed all over his feet.
The two eyes also rolled to the side.
Chang Sheng, who was in the shadow outside the house, was shocked. He didn't expect that the ancient Qi clan was so powerful.
Borrowing a knife to kill, and borrowing the opponent's own knife!
Inside the house, Lu Zhan's body, half of his head missing, was kneeling on the spot motionless. Hua Feng looked at him and poked the body lightly with his hand, causing the body to fall to the ground.
"After all calculations, I finally lost to God! I didn't expect that the elixir refined from the ancient Kirin Eagle's inner elixir would end up being such a lump of flesh and blood!"
Hua Feng let out a long sigh, and then put Lu Zhan's body into a storage bag.
He also collected the two eyes that had fallen to the ground, and even put the brains that had splashed onto the ground into several pill bottles.
Changsheng glanced twice and quietly left the city lord's mansion without staying any longer.
After returning to his residence, Chang Sheng told Hun Li what he saw and heard in detail. After he finished he said:
"The Qi clan is so weird, and Hua Feng is so thoughtful and vicious. I think we'd better stay away from him. Don't get caught by accident."
"I think that Diaoji Pill should be extraordinary." Hun Li frowned.
"Isn't it just for Ningzhen and Juyuan cultivators to increase their volley height and speed? Although the fifth-grade ones are more expensive, can they still be bought?"
"By the way, he seems to have said something about the Qilin Diao Neidan." Changsheng added.
"Qilin Eagle? That is a spiritual beast. It became extinct after the ancient spirit-destroying war. But the power of this Qilin Eagle lies in its heart."
Hun Li paused for a moment: "I think Hua Feng must not be flying at such a high and high speed."
Changsheng thought for a moment: "Yes, the Qi people must maintain the balance of various emotional Qi in their hearts. Therefore, a strong heart pulse is a basic requirement."
"If the heart meridians are not strong enough, they will be counterattacked by these emotional energies. And only a strong heart meridians can accommodate all these emotional energies at the same time."
