Chapter 573 Stone Pile Thin Line

His vision turned black, and Su Ziyi knelt down.

Standing on all fours, a large amount of sweat fell from his pale face to the ground. He closed his eyes tightly, gasping for air, with a painful look on his face, and even the muscles on his cheeks were trembling slightly.

Just now, the final explosion of the Five Elements Essence drained all the spiritual energy from his body.

It took him a while to get over the feeling of exhaustion. He sat down on the ground, turned over and lay down on the ground, facing the sky and continuing to rest, while his hand reached into the storage bag. There is still a lot of All Souls Liquid left, so it is most suitable to use it at this time. Therefore, after the essence of the Five Elements radiated light again, Su Ziyi managed to get up from the ground and sit up cross-legged to meditate.

Although the bloody humanoid is gone, its influence will not be dissipated for a while.

When Su Ziyi came out of his cultivation state, there was still a slight stickiness in the surrounding air, but there was nothing else strange in the lake. Those Qi Refining Stage practitioners who had narrowly escaped death at the bottom of the mountain made sure that nothing strange had appeared on the top of the mountain in the past half day, and then they carefully climbed up from the bottom. The fastest ones were almost on the mountainside.

Su Ziyi knew that it was time for him to withdraw.

The foundation-building cultivator was almost dying. His eyes were closed tightly and his breath was weak. If you didn't look carefully, you would really think it was a corpse. Moreover, all the flesh and blood and essence in his body seemed to have been drained out by the bloody humanoid. He looked skinny and his skin was abnormally dark, making him look quite scary. Su Ziyi took the shot and sucked the man's storage bag into his hand.

Those array disks scattered around the lake cannot be left behind either.

With his sword in mid-air, Su Ziyi put all the formation disks into his storage bag. He didn't know who made these formation disks with what kind of spiritual materials. After going through such a toss, there was no damage at all. Although he wanted to explore it, Su Ziyi was not specialized in formations and weapon refining, so he had to give up and focus on the foundation-building practitioner.

Su Ziyi's eyes were full of disgust.

With a wave of his hand, the unconscious person floated onto his hand. Su Ziyi looked up and down, and finally sank into the water with the person with a "plop". The lake where such a horrific incident had just happened was now very clear, and the smell was very clean, without even a trace of peculiar smell. However, Su Ziyi frowned as soon as he entered the water.

There are some disgusting things hidden at the bottom of this lake.

It was said to be an altar, but Su Ziyi preferred that it was a formation that sealed evil spirits. Because the formation was too old, coupled with the use of intentional people, some things that should not have appeared have reappeared. Su Ziyi didn't know whether the bloody humanoid was destroyed, but he knew that this altar could not be left.

Although it sounds like he is overestimating his abilities, Su Ziyi still wants to do something just like Elder Zhou did.

The lake was shallower than Su Ziyi thought. After swimming downstream for less than half a quarter of an hour, he saw the bottom of the lake. Although the bottom of the lake was dark, Su Ziyi, who had the perception of a cultivator, still approached and found more than a dozen stone piles scattered at the bottom of the lake. These stone piles are arranged in a strange pattern, giving people a very mysterious feeling.

However, Su Ziyi's attention was not on these stone piles, but on the gaps between these stone piles.

Like silk threads with a metallic luster, the long and extremely thin threads connect a dozen stone piles in series. They are extremely soft and sway back and forth with the water waves, making them look like smooth hair. But at this moment, these strands of hair were glowing red, reflecting the bottom of the lake as red as blood.

The aura that made Su Ziyi feel uncomfortable before came from here.

Su Ziyi noticed that the red light on these thin lines was dimming little by little, and when he brought the foundation-building cultivator closer, they suddenly rolled violently. It was clear that the wind was calm and nothing happened everywhere in the water, but these thin lines seemed to be alive and rushed towards Su Ziyi and the others. However, in the end, due to the restrictions of the stone piles, they rushed to a place still half a foot away from Su Ziyi. Just stopped.

Looking at the thin lines receding, Su Ziyi felt the unwillingness on them.

It clearly looks like a dead thing.

Su Ziyi's eyes moved, and he roughly understood where the bloody humanoid had gone. He could stay in the water for a long time after taking the water-avoiding pill, but this foundation-building practitioner could not, so Su Ziyi stopped wasting time. He gathered the spiritual power in his hand and threw it towards these thin threads. Instantly, those thin lines retreated crazily as if they had seen a natural enemy, but in the end the speed was too slow and they were hit.

Suddenly, the red color on the thin line dispersed like water, revealing its original black color.

Seeing this scene, Su Ziyi's eyes couldn't help but light up.

After a few more strokes, the red thread that was originally holding on was completely faded, as if it had lost all its vitality. It lay motionless on the bottom of the lake. Even if it was pushed by the water flow, it was only swaying slightly. Su Ziyi was a little worried. After making a few moves, he dragged the person to the edge of the stone pile.

Stone piles and those thin lines are completely different things.

Although one end of those thin wires was connected to the bottom of the stone pile and looked like it was growing out of the stone pile, Su Ziyi had this feeling.

After hesitating for a moment, he still stretched out his hand. As soon as he inserted his hand, those thin threads were entangled, but they were really weaker than before. When the spiritual power in Su Ziyi's hand shook, they fled again and avoided the stone pile. The situation was revealed, which made Su Ziyi frown.

What an evil approach.

Although he didn't know who did it, it must have something to do with the master of the foundation-building cultivator in his hand. Su Ziyi couldn't help but use a little more force to grab the person's hand, making the person who had fainted still endure it

. He couldn't help but groan in pain. But when the sound fell on Su Ziyi's ears, he just felt that he deserved it, no, it was too advantageous.

When I looked closer, I discovered that there were formation patterns carved on the bottom of the stone pile, but the patterns were too shallow and difficult to spot without looking carefully.

These filaments are like parasites stuck on the lines. Although it is not known whether they are to draw power from the formation or to block the erosion of the formation, but because of its existence, the entire stone pile is It is an indisputable fact that small holes are produced at the bottom. Su Ziyi could not imagine what the consequences would be if one day the formation constructed by the stone piles was really destroyed by these things.

A dark color appeared in his eyes, and a large amount of spiritual power appeared in Su Ziyi's hands.

Su Ziyi first wanted to see if he could use his spiritual power to cut these thin threads from the stone makeup, but after working on it for a while, he only cut off a small part of the thin threads, and most of them were still firmly adhered. on top. This is going to be difficult. Spiritual power is indeed useful, but the consumption is too great and cannot be solved by himself.

In a dilemma, Su Ziyi pushed the person onto the stone pile.

And the moment he pressed on it, a familiar suction force suddenly came from the stone pile, sucking out the spiritual power from Su Ziyi's body bit by bit. Su Ziyi was startled and moved his hand away. The suction force disappeared instantly. When he put it up again, it reappeared. Although it was very slight, Su Ziyi felt a breath that was very similar to the essence of the Five Elements!

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and he released the essence of the Five Elements.

Using spiritual power to activate the essence of the Five Elements, the five beads flew out of Su Ziyi's hand as if they were telepathic, spinning around, and finally settled above the stone pile, illuminating the bottom of the lake. When the light touched the stone pile, it immediately changed. The light, which was originally invisible and qualityless, was divided into countless clusters at this moment and turned into tiny threads, combining the essence of the five elements and the stone. The piles were connected.

It looks so similar to those thin black lines on the ground.

But it just gives people two completely different feelings.

Because of their appearance, Su Ziyi had to take the foundation-building practitioner upstream, but his eyes never left what was in front of him. He noticed that after those lights appeared, the black lines on the ground began to shrink. Even without the intervention of a large amount of spiritual power, there were faint signs of breaking free from the stone piles.

good!

Su Ziyi shouted excitedly, but then he found that the light of the Five Elements Essence began to dim, and the lights implicated on the stone piles became blurred. Su Ziyi's heart tightened, and he quickly threw out a bottle of Wanling Jade Liquid from the storage bag, broke the bottle, and used his spiritual power to send it to the Five Elements Essence, which made the Five Elements Essence shine again.

Seeing this, Su Ziyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Ziyi's timely support undoubtedly made things worse for the black lines on the ground. Even if they knew they were defeated, they were extremely unwilling to let them give up. Therefore, they began to resist violently, and the water and sand at the bottom of the lake were lifted up, causing chaos at the bottom of the lake. The nauseating feeling and blood-red color reappeared, so Su Ziyi had to take people with him. Keep going back.

But their resistance is ultimately in vain.

The grade of the thin thread is not as good as that of the stone makeup. The reason why it can be stuck on is just a crooked way to find a loophole, so that the stone piles that are busy suppressing the underground things cannot spare the time to deal with it. But now with the help of the Five Elements Essence, those dozen stone piles can finally completely remove these annoying things. Not long after, I saw waves rolling in the entire lake, the lake shore was soaked by water, and all the thin threads that had been wrapped around the stone piles for who knows how long were finally pulled out.

Chapter 574 is temporarily over

No matter how the other party makes trouble at the bottom of the lake, the essence of the Five Elements will always remain unchanged.

The collision of the two, even if it did not bring about any earth-shattering and landslide effects, was not too small. This made those Qi-refining period practitioners who originally thought that the top of the mountain was completely safe were once again frightened out of their courage and used a faster Rushing down the mountain at high speed.

Su Ziyi was also forced to withdraw from the lake.

When everything calms down, it will be a matter of time after a stick of incense is burned.

Su Ziyi entered the lake again and no longer felt the disgusting aura. He looked closely and found that the black thin thread had not only been pulled out, but had been completely destroyed by the essence of the Five Elements and the stone pile practice, so that not even ashes were left. He shook his head, took back the essence of the Five Elements, and prepared to leave.

But the moment he turned around, his peripheral vision spotted a black shadow at the bottom of the lake.

So he stopped.

Swinging his legs, he appeared in front of the black shadow.

It is a cone-shaped white stone.

It is not unusual for stones to appear at the bottom of the lake. What is strange is that this stone is obviously pitted and looks no bigger than a fist, but it has sunk into the center of the lake bottom - which is also the center of the dozen stone piles. Looking at the surrounding traces, it is not It rolled over from somewhere else, but was in this position from the beginning.

This is a bit interesting.

Su Ziyi bent down and picked it up. The moment he picked it up, spiritual energy suddenly rolled around him. Su Ziyi subconsciously turned his head and saw that the dozens of stone piles suddenly glowed. It was a kind of bright white light, which was not dazzling, but gave people a very warm feeling. Being in it, Su Ziyi felt like he was bathing in the spring sunshine.

The concentration of spiritual power in the lake suddenly increased.

Before Su Ziyi had time to realize what was going on, a dozen white light pillars came from outside, broke through the lake water, and connected directly to the stone piles, dyeing the lake water brightly.

This scene made Su Ziyi feel inexplicably familiar.

The rising concentration of spiritual power made Su Ziyi feel a little uncomfortable. Originally, this was a good thing for cultivators, but because the spiritual energy of the Diyue Kingdom was just arsenic to him, not honey, he could not tolerate it, so in Before reaching the critical point, he left the lake. As soon as he left the lake and looked at the dozen white light pillars coming from a distance and going straight to the bottom of the lake, he knew why this scene was so familiar.

Because he had seen the same scene in the mountains of Luoshan Village and by the big lake of Yunxian Forest.

Those dozens of spiritual light pillars have become the most eye-catching existence in the night sky. They stretch across the sky and break the darkness, like gods suddenly descending on everyone's heart, creating a sense of tranquility in people's hearts. At this moment, whether they were the Qi-refining period practitioners who were escaping down the mountain or the common people who were escaping to the Qin Kingdom, they all stopped and looked up until the meteor had passed and the earth returned to darkness.

Standing on the mountainside, Su Ziyi felt that the overly rich spiritual energy just now was rapidly declining, and returned to the original level after a while.

This situation is much worse than that of the Yuan Dynasty.

Only a few spiritual power fragments were left in the air, and they were disappearing quickly. Feeling the decreasing concentration of spiritual energy all over his body, Su Ziyi vaguely guessed the reason why the spiritual energy in the Qin Kingdom disappeared out of control. However, this is just a clue. There are more and deeper reasons, and he needs to go to Qin to collect more clues to prove it.

He wanted to figure it out, and he had to figure it out.

Subconsciously, Su Ziyi clenched his fists, but his hands hurt immediately from the objects in his hands. He looked down and then remembered the cone-shaped stone he had picked up at the bottom of the lake. At the bottom of the lake before, he didn't take a closer look because he didn't have enough time. But now when he looked, he discovered that there was a bloody handprint on the other side of the stone!

The handprint was very large, and the entire side of the stone was stained with blood. The marks on the fingertips were thick, and it was obviously the hand of an adult man.

It's Bai Suiyi's hand.

There was no reason, Su Ziyi thought so.

There was no reason for Bai Suiyi's appearance, and there was no reason for him to die. Although so many things happened after that, from the beginning to the end, Su Ziyi paid a little attention to Bai Suiyi, noticing that the other person stayed in the team from beginning to end, standing next to a middle-aged woman with a kind face, and with that The women went up the mountain together, were bled together, fell into the lake together, and ended their lives together.

Su Ziyi had seen that woman before.

She is from Baijia Village. He has seen her talking to Bai Suiyi with a smile on her face several times. She is always gentle and gentle. Every time Bai Suiyi touches her, the hard lines on her face will become... Soften up.

She is his wife and he is her husband.

The hand holding the stone suddenly tightened, and Su Ziyi fell silent.

What kind of mentality Bai Suiyi had in doing such a thing was beyond Su Ziyi's consideration. But why did he carry such a stone, and what was its use? That's what he cares about. He had an intuition that this stone had something to do with the boy, and he also had an intuition that this stone had something to do with causing the bloody humanoid in the lake to lose control.

Subconsciously, Su Ziyi input a bit of spiritual power into it.

very smooth.

It went more smoothly than expected. I explored the stone in the blink of an eye, not missing a single corner.

But in the end, I didn't find anything wrong, as if it was just an ordinary stone. Su Ziyi pondered for a while, but finally put the seemingly useless stone into the storage bag. He planned to wait until he had a chance to figure it out later. He intuitively felt that the stone was not as simple as it seemed.

Everything seemed to have come to an end, and there was no need for Su Ziyi to stay here anymore.

He looked at the foundation-building cultivator who was still unconscious. He was dying, very weak, and looked useless. But Su Ziyi thought for a while and decided not to kill the person directly. Instead, he directly carried the person towards the thatched cottage village. When the person wakes up, he may be able to get more useful information from the other person's mouth.

Therefore, let’s save this man’s life for the time being.

The fire of riots is still spreading. Although there are no shadows within ten miles of the mountain, the fire burning in the distance still illuminates the entire sky red. Accompanied by cries and roars, disputes gradually arise. .

By the time Su Ziyi rushed back to Maowu Village, there was no one alive there.

Just as Su Ziyi had thought when he first came here, as long as a fire breaks out in one place here, other houses will be instantly engulfed in a sea of ​​flames, leaving no one with any chance to put out the fire. Therefore, when Su Ziyi came back, what appeared in front of him was a piece of ashes that had been burned to black ash, and a dozen charred corpses.

The same was true for the spiritual plant area. The degree of damage was even worse. The spiritual plants planted in the ground were completely pulled out, as if locusts had passed through.

The fighting power of that group of people really cannot be underestimated.

Su Ziyi didn't find Zhihuai and the others, but he knew that nothing would happen to them. At least there were two cultivators. If they were really dealt with by a group of ordinary people, Zhihuai wouldn't want to lose his face. And just when Su Ziyi was thinking about walking in the direction of Qin to see if he could find Zhihuai and the others, a thin and short figure appeared in the distance.

It's that boy.

He was still wearing the same clothes as before, with no more blood stains or more dirt, as if he had never participated in the riot from beginning to end. But Su Ziyi, who saw everything before his eyes, knew that even if he was not the source, he was the one who caused all this, and it was even him who sent Bai Suiyi to his death.

For various reasons, Su Ziyi had a complicated view of him.

The young man was an ordinary person, and it would take some time to walk from the fields to the village, but Su Ziyi did not move and kept standing there waiting for him. Although there was no moonlight or starlight, when the two people faced each other, Su Ziyi did not find a trace of surprise on the other person's face. He seemed to have known that the person standing here was Su Ziyi.

"Uncle Ye."

Standing in front of Su Ziyi, the young man said.

But Su Ziyi ignored him and looked at him calmly. There was no anger or doubt on his face, only calmness, as if he was facing a stranger. This emotion was completely beyond the young man's expectations, making him a little overwhelmed. His eyes wandered around in panic, and finally fell on the foundation-building cultivator in Su Ziyi's hand, and he took a breath of cold air.

"Is it him?" The boy's voice was full of surprise, and even his eyes were shining.

The skin of the foundation-building cultivator looks a little abnormal at first glance. Anyone with eyes can see that the other person's condition is not good, or even very bad. But this terrifying appearance did not frighten the young man. Instead, he took a few steps forward excitedly. But soon, this excitement turned into pleasure, the pleasure of getting revenge.

"Haha - haha ​​-" Finally, he stopped one step away from Su Ziyi, raised his head and laughed so hard that his body trembled slightly and tears came out, like a madman.

But Su Ziyi never said a word, no matter what the other party's behavior was, it seemed that he didn't notice it.

When the young man had laughed enough, his eyes were red, and there was no trace of smile on his face anymore. Only pleading and seriousness remained. He kept his attitude very upright and bowed to Su Ziyi: "Uncle Ye, I know it's a bit presumptuous. But can you please hand over the person you are holding to me?" When he said this, he almost gritted his teeth and said each word, each word containing infinite hatred.

Su Ziyi didn't reply to him.

The young man straightened up and looked into Su Ziyi's eyes. Su Ziyi noticed that his eyes were red again, full of red bloodshot eyes: "Please, I must kill him with my own hands!" He cried every word: "For my parents, For my brothers and sisters! I must kill him! As long as you hand him over to me, I can do anything!"
