"Except for the six altars, I have looked at all the other places more than once, including every brick and stone on the surrounding walls, but I still haven't found anything abnormal. It seems that there is really no way out." Mo Juren sighed softly, feeling in his heart I can't help but have some mixed feelings.
The journey to Xutian Palace has been smooth, but I didn't expect something went wrong here.
If it was just a small matter that he couldn't find the treasure, he was now worried about his own life. He was obviously trapped at this moment. And after the Xutian Temple ends in a month, it is also unknown whether it can be teleported away.
At this time, Han Li and Xu Qingcheng also came over one after another, obviously seeing the current situation, and their expressions were full of solemnity that could not be concealed.
"I have a suggestion, I don't know whether I should say it or not?" Xu Qingcheng's eyes flashed slightly and she suddenly said. Hearing this, Han Li, who was a little depressed at the side, suddenly brightened up.
"It's now time, just say whatever you have to say." Mo Juren was also a little surprised, and then motioned for the other party to continue.
"Since it is already a dead end, why not do something more desperate, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope." Xu Qingcheng looked directly at the six altars in the central area and said with a fierce expression.
"No..." Mo Juren still didn't understand what the other party meant, so he refused without thinking.
He never thought that the other party would have such an idea, and even think about the extreme idea of opening the seal of the altar. Not to mention that this is obviously a gambling behavior that is not reliable at all. The key is how to end it later? Once the contents are released, the three of them may have no choice but to die based on their strength.
"Why not? Do we have to wait here to die?" Xu Qingcheng's face was a little ugly, and a hint of madness flashed in his bright eyes.
"It's better to wait for death than to seek death." Mo Juren snorted coldly and continued,
"There is still nearly a month before the end of Xutian Temple. Who knows what will happen during this period? Maybe you can think of a way. What's the difference between acting recklessly in such a hurry and actively seeking death?"
"But……"
"No buts!" Seeing that the other party wanted to say more, Mo Juren's expression suddenly turned cold and said,
"Mo doesn't want to die either, but that doesn't mean that his fear of death has messed up his mind. Let's just drop this matter and don't mention it again."
"I..." Xu Qingcheng opened her mouth, but ultimately did not continue. She also knew that this method was a bit messy, but what if she didn't do it this way? And there seemed to be a voice in her heart that kept reminding her that this was the right thing to do.
Since such a mysterious seal formation is arranged here, it must be an extremely important place in Xutian Palace. Once something goes wrong, or even destroyed, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction, and it will be possible to take advantage of the troubled waters and leave.
Although this is just a guess, it is not without any basis. Once everything goes well, the possibility of finally getting out of trouble is definitely not low. The only thing that needs to be worried about is the danger of the sealed thing.
She is still somewhat confident in her own strength. Even Mo Juren was not inferior to her at all. Probably only Han Li was far behind, and he was considered the most dangerous among the three.
However, compared to being able to leave this ghost place, appropriate risks and sacrifices are necessary.
Naturally, she didn't say these words, otherwise she was afraid that she would completely offend Han Li. Mo Juren disagreed, and there was a high probability that he had this consideration as well.
Thinking of this, she could only sigh helplessly and remain silent.
Xu Qingcheng's understanding of Han Li was obviously superficial, and he thought he could hide it from him without telling him.
Unfortunately, the moment he made the suggestion, Han Li thought of everything in an instant, but he just didn't show it. However, the master's flat refusal made him feel warm in his heart.
Sure enough, the master would not abandon him.
The three of them all found a place to sit down cross-legged, looking at the altar in front of them, each thinking about the starry sky above their heads, and the surroundings became quiet for a while.
I don’t know how much time had passed, but while the three of them were meditating, a sudden change occurred. The originally unusually quiet space suddenly shook violently, and stars flashed in the starry sky, as if something was instantly activated.
At the same time, the six altars below also began to change and also trembled. One of them was particularly violent, with not only cracks on the surface, but also a large amount of strange black mist filling the air.
"Demon energy..." The three people in the distance all looked solemn when they saw this scene. Obviously, this was affected by external forces, causing problems with the seal here.
】
Why is this so? What's happening outside?
Mo Juren thought quickly in his mind, and finally thought of a possibility. Could it be the reason at Hanli Terrace? Wan Tianming has already started taking action?
However, it is on the fifth floor, and there is even a powerful restriction and isolation, so it shouldn't affect this place, right? Or is it not a matter of distance at all?
As the core of the Xutian Palace, once the Xutian Cauldron is pulled, it will inevitably cause some chain reactions. And if such a major seal is set up, there is a high probability that it will also be affected.
Well, no matter what the reason was, there was something wrong with the altar in front of me after all. If you don't think of a way to solve it and cause the things inside to escape, it will be really troublesome.
Fortunately, before he could do anything, the starry sky on the top wall had changed again. The densely packed stars became brighter and brighter, and dots of starlight scattered in the sky, and then condensed into an illusory star map facing down above the altar in the center.
The star map was about one foot long and two feet wide. It was suspended in mid-air and kept rotating. Rays of five-color brilliance diffused from the star map, and all fell onto the stone carvings on the top of the altar.
In an instant, the stone carving lit up with a dazzling light, and was divided into five. Arc-shaped beams of light shot into the bronze tripods on top of the five surrounding altars, connecting them all into one.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom..." bursts of explosions sounded one after another, and the five altars were all lit up. Each of them emitted five colors of black, white, green, red, and yellow light, turning into a five-color light mask. Completely seal every altar.
At that moment, the altar that was still trembling suddenly returned to calm, and the black mist that filled the most serious one was quickly purified.
Everything returned to calm, but Mo Juren's originally worried heart did not let go. Instead, his eyes widened and he stared passionately at the 'illusive star map' in mid-air.
At that moment, he was extremely convinced that this was the 'Starry Map of the Void Sky' that he was looking for. It was just a guess at first, but I didn't expect that it was actually in Xutian Palace?
But why is it here?
You don't need to think about it to know that the Xutian Star Dou Diagram is the core of this sealing formation. Once it is taken away, the formation will be destroyed, and the sealed objects below will also be able to escape.
This is so damned!
Mo Juren couldn't help but curse in his heart, it was really annoying that the treasure map was so close to Chi Chi but he couldn't take it away.
"Do you want that 'Picture of Stars in the Void Sky'?" But at this moment, Xu Qingcheng's voice sounded in his ears again. The other party obviously noticed the change in his expression and asked directly.
"It's useless even if you want to." Mo Juren shook his head slightly, then suddenly startled, turned around and asked,
"How do you know the name of this picture?"
"Uh... there is a record of this picture in the notes left by our ancestors, and I happen to recognize it." Xu Qingcheng's expression changed slightly, and she quickly changed the topic,
"You might as well reconsider my previous proposal. If you can get such a treasure map, you will have a better chance of finding a way to leave."
The 'Xu Tian Xing Tu' is related to his own magic weapon, and its importance is self-evident. It is also the main goal of Mo Juren's visit to Xu Tian Palace this time. It is impossible for him to give up.
Of course, the consequences can also be predicted, and it is very likely to be more disastrous than bad.
The large formation in front of you is composed of the "Xu Tian Xing Dou Tu" as the center of the formation and six mysterious altars as auxiliaries. Its complexity is far beyond imagination. Likewise, the things sealed below must be extremely terrifying, and there may even be more than one.
Therefore, any decision must be made carefully and must not be acted rashly until the last moment.
He planned not to make a decision for the time being and wait until later. Anyway, there is still time, maybe we can find other ways.
However, before he could speak, he suddenly noticed something and felt a chill in his heart.
Looking at Xu Qingcheng, he immediately replied very firmly: "Don't think about it, this method won't work."
"You..." The other party was so stubborn, which immediately made Xu Qingcheng furious. There was an inexplicable blur in the sea of consciousness, and a pair of bright eyes flashed with black light, and she asked in a deep voice,
"Are you really going to give it a second thought?"
"What, are you planning to take action?" Mo Juren sneered slightly, grabbing Han Li's shoulders and flying away like lightning. The latter couldn't help but be startled, but did not resist.
"Have you discovered it?" Seeing this scene, 'Xu Qingcheng' couldn't help but look surprised, and did not chase after him. Instead, he asked rather curiously.
His voice also completely changed, rough and cold with a hint of coldness.
"I asked myself that there were no flaws. How did you detect it?"
"Mo is just a little more sensitive to demonic energy and accidentally sensed something was wrong. Then he deliberately said it to test, but he didn't expect it to be true." A trace of regret flashed in Mo Juren's eyes, and he continued,
"Can you please introduce yourself, so that master and disciple Mo can understand?"
"You are self-aware." 'Xu Qingcheng' smiled coldly, but did not rush to take action and continued to reply calmly,
"I am a powerful real demon, from the demon world."
"Dali is a real demon!" Mo Juren was shocked, but his face remained calm as he said,
"It turns out he is a senior from the demon world. I wonder what happened to my friend?"
"It's a coincidence that this body actually has the blood of the demon clan and can be easily affected. The only pity is that the other party is a female and does not meet my requirements. Therefore, my life is not taken, but only temporarily borrowed. one time."
"That's it." Mo Juren nodded slightly and said again,
"Now that senior has shown up, what are your plans?"
"It's very simple. As long as you help me break through the big formation in front of me, I will give you the 'Void Sky Star Map' afterwards. In addition, I can also take you out of the Xutian Palace with me." Dali Zhenmo made a promise.
"Since seniors come from the upper realm, there is no need to speak of their strength. It should be effortless to break through a small formation, right? Why should we two juniors help?"
"A small formation!" Demon Dali snorted coldly,
"You are too underestimating this 'Void Sky Demon Sealing Formation'. This is the hand of the top powerhouse of your human race, 'Bing Po'. If you don't meet certain conditions, it is impossible to break through this formation.
Fortunately, the sky has eyes and actually sent the descendants of Bingpo here. As long as they use the essence and blood as a guide and the Xuan Gong complements each other, it will be easy to break through this formation. "
"Xu Tian Demon Sealing Formation!" Mo Juren knew the name of this formation and was even more certain that the illusory star map was indeed the 'Xu Tian Star Map'.
"Senior may have made a mistake. I am not a descendant of the Ice Soul Fairy."
"I know." Dali Zhenmo nodded slightly, but did not panic at all. Instead, he pointed at himself confidently and said,
"This body just meets the conditions. I will give you some blood later. As long as you follow my instructions, it is not difficult to break the formation."
"I forgot about it." Mo Juren sighed lightly, but suddenly asked with a sneer,
"Senior, you are joking. When did Mo promise to help you break the formation?"
"Huh?" Demon Dali's eyes turned cold, a chill suddenly burst out, and he threatened in a cold voice,
"You dare to refuse me?"
"I don't dare." Mo Juren shook his head slightly, but his expression instantly became extremely solemn, and he said coldly,
"Mo just wanted to confirm. He just ran out a wisp of soul. What kind of method can he use to reach the sky?"
"Seeking death!" Upon hearing this, the powerful demon was completely furious, waving his arms, and bursts of black mist filled the air. Unlike before, the black mist at this time was filled with strong demonic energy, sweeping forward.
Mo Juren's expression was still very calm, but he didn't dare to be careless in his heart. His lips moved slightly and he sent a message to Han Li. The latter immediately understood and waved his arm without hesitation.
In an instant, countless golden thunder and lightning emerged out of thin air, turning into golden sword light and shooting forward. Worthy of being the nemesis of demonic energy, Fang Yi entered the black mist and was directly penetrated.
"Exorcism Divine Thunder, you actually have such a thing in your body!" The powerful demon obviously had some knowledge. The moment he saw the golden thunder and lightning, the murderous intention towards Han Li in his heart instantly increased to the extreme.
He didn't panic. After all, he had a physical body at the moment, and he was still a Yuanying Stage monk, and the strength he could exert was powerful enough.
With a thought in his mind, he directly offered a piece of snow-white brocade handkerchief. In an instant, it grew in the wind and turned into a length of about ten feet, blocking it directly in front of him.
The brocade handkerchief obviously did not belong to the magic treasure. The evil-destroying properties of the evil-proof divine thunder could not be used, and its power was greatly reduced when faced with it. It only left a series of burn marks, but it quickly recovered with a flash of light.
Mo Juren frowned slightly. This was obviously Xu Qingcheng's thing. He didn't expect it to be controlled by this demon in such a short period of time.
Fortunately, it was just a brocade handkerchief. If it were the Phantom Spirit Tower, he and Han Li would have stopped resisting and just surrendered.
Obviously, the level of the Phantom Tower is too high, and the opponent is just a fragment of the soul. There is no time to even seize the body, let alone refining and driving it in a short time.
As he expected, Dali Zhenmo was a little embarrassed at this time. He did not expect that the other party was so courageous and refused to cooperate without any hesitation.
So much so that he didn't even have time to prepare and could only start the war immediately. What made him even more unexpected was that he would directly face the legendary evil-fighting divine thunder, which was really a bit depressing.
In desperation, he could only hastily refine a magic weapon belonging to the original owner so that he could use it to temporarily meet the enemy.
However, the anger in his heart became more intense, and a black light suddenly flashed around him and disappeared. The next moment, he suddenly appeared in front of the two opponents, shouted loudly, and struck directly at someone's heart with a terrifying iron fist.
