Seeing this scene, the few people who were facing a formidable enemy were all surprised, and then they looked at Long Xu and Qi Bai, the meaning in their eyes was obvious.
Is this the red mist peeking out and capturing thoughts?
Chen Jiao anxiously squeezed the seal and recited the Xuan Gong silently. She did not panic, but she only wanted to disperse the red mist. Unfortunately, the red mist was not affected at all, and instead became more concentrated.
"Something is wrong with the situation!" Long Xu was also puzzled when he saw this. Among the people in Kongtong, he had the most information, but he had never seen the red mist attack with his own eyes, so how could he make it clear?
So, after thinking for a moment, he looked at Qi Bai.
Brother, you were so loud just now and acted like you have seen it before. Can you explain this situation?
However, when he looked at it, what caught his eye was Qi Bai's frowning face.
"I have never encountered such a situation before." Noticing Long Xu's gaze, Qi Bai did not hide it. "When the red mist burst out before, it penetrated flesh and blood, reaching directly to spiritual consciousness and thoughts. It wanted to infect thoughts, but it is not like this."
Pause." He looked at Chen Jiao with a confused expression, "Don't move yet, I'll clean it up for you!"
After saying that, he took two steps forward, raised his hand, and made a palm print.
Suddenly, heavy golden light burst out from his hand, split into thousands, and pierced into the red mist.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Qi, for your help." Long Xu was slightly reassured.
"No need to thank you. The reason I came out this time was to capture some red mist and go back to investigate. Without you, this red mist wouldn't be able to escape today!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab the red mist wrapped around Chen Jiao.
He was pulled over and grabbed by him, and then the red mist boiled, seeping into his palms and reaching his heart!
For an instant, Qi Bai froze on the spot.
"Thank you, Master, for saving me..." Chen Jiao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly saluted. When she looked up, she noticed that Qi Bai's expression was not right, "Master..."
"This Qi Bai, has his thoughts been infected by the red mist?" Lingmei murmured, and looked at each other with his senior sister, "I think it is quite easy for my junior uncle to deal with it. Although he cannot expel it, there is no infection. His tone is so
Big, how..."
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Qi Bai's face turned pale, his expression recovered, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Chen Jiao: "No need to thank me, I didn't save you. You are the clan of Chen State, and I am the clan of Da Qi.
It will be difficult to distinguish between friends and foes in the future, but there is no need to say anything today." As he said that, he gathered the red mist into his sleeves and moved forward without looking back, except that his right hand was trembling faintly.
Chen Jiao was at a loss.
Long Xu smiled slightly and said: "Junior Brother Qi has a cold face and a warm heart. Just remember what happened today."
Chen Jiao nodded quickly.
Afterwards, everyone followed Qi Bai and moved forward.
The journey was uneventful.
When they reached the center of the natural formation and saw the emerald green bamboo forest, suddenly the silence in their ears disappeared. They heard the sound of people and saw many figures.
"There are really many people!"
Everyone couldn't help being surprised and looked at Chen Jiao one after another.
When they stood on the top of the mountain and watched from a distance, no one could see anyone in the formation except Chen Jiao.
When Qi Bai saw this, he was confused, but he just walked without asking.
"Long Xu, your boy is here."
A lot of people gathered by the forest, and they were divided into several families based on their costumes.
The person who was greeting Long Xu had a beard on his face, a mahogany sword on his back, and a wine gourd on his waist. If he wasn't Kunlun Qiu Yuzi, who could he be?
As he walked, he said: "We said goodbye last time, but it has been a few years, and a certain family has thought that it might be your boy who is bringing people here from Kongtong Mountain this time."
"I have met my uncle." Long Xu stepped forward and saluted, but he did not appear respectful, but rather casual, "It has indeed been many years."
"I guess there are not many people who traveled together with me who are still alive. We have to get together if we find time. To be honest, I didn't want to come this time, but the family urged me. Alas." Qiu Yuzi and Long Xu reminisced about their old days.
After saying this, he looked behind him, his eyes resting on Chen Jiao.
Everyone came forward to pay tribute.
"Greetings, Uncle Master." Chen Jiao said cautiously, and then stood next to a few people, very well-behaved.
"It's weird," Qiu Yuzi grinned, "Your brother has such a great reputation, and even the old monsters in the world don't give him the respect, but his girl's realm is average..."
After hearing what he said, Chen Jiao immediately lowered her head.
"You fool, you talk nonsense all day long!"
Suddenly, the peach wood sword behind Qiu Yuzi said: "This little girl has a very solid foundation, which is very rare."
Qiu Yuzi muttered: "A certain family can also see that other reincarnated immortals have made rapid progress, and it is not easy for her to be able to endure her temper."
Long Xu interrupted at this time: "Uncle Master, let's go over first. I have been ordered by Master to see Master Ziyu for something." As he said that, his eyes fell into the bamboo forest and caught a glimpse of a pool of water.
"No rush, no hurry." Qiu Yuzi waved his hand, "Let's take a rest first. There will be a change in this Shen Zang at noon today. He is leading people to prepare now, so don't disturb him yet."
"Huh? There are going to be changes in Shenzang?" Long Xu was nervous when he heard this, "But it's going to be unsealed?"
"That's more or less the meaning," Qiu Yuzi lowered his voice, "You are not an outsider, and a certain family will not hide it from you. It has been calculated earlier that the divine treasure should be opened three times. The first two times were very coercive and mixed with the fog of troubled times.
, Oh, it’s that red mist. This red mist is unpredictable and seems to have the ability to penetrate into the secluded world. Only the reincarnated immortals can withstand it. The third time the mist may dissipate, ordinary Taoists can probably get in, but they will inevitably have to go in.
Shedding a layer of skin."
"Three times?" Long Xu was stunned, "The divine treasure here is so special. This ordinary divine treasure can only be opened once, and the outer formation will collapse?"
"Who knows, but the first two close encounters should be within a year. The third time is not easy to forget. A certain teacher said that the third time may have to wait another ten years, or even fifty years.
!”
Long Xu listened and frowned: "Looking at it this way, it will be a lot of trouble in the future."
"The first two times to explore the inside clearly, you don't have to bother the third time," Qiu Yuzi shook his head, "After all, what are we worried about? Let's look at the fate of the reincarnated immortals."
Long Xu hesitated for a moment and asked: "Uncle Master, the fog of troubled times you just mentioned can lead to the netherworld. Is it possible that the divine treasure here is related to the path of life and death?"
"Did someone say that?" Qiu Yuzi quickly shook his head, "Don't talk nonsense."
"..."
When Long Xu saw this, he didn't ask any more questions.
Qiu Yuzi laughed and said: "I told you not to worry about it. Come, a certain house will treat you to a drink. We are all accompanying you. When the god is hidden..."
Boom!
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden roar in the bamboo forest, and then the earth shook violently, and a black light shot out from the pool of water and shot straight into the sky!
Boom boom boom!
Above the sky, the clouds rolled, and chains emerged one after another, and then they fell down and extended towards the pool of water.
"retreat!"
A clear voice came out, and the purple-robed man rose into the air, holding an umbrella in his left hand to block the falling black chains. Then he lowered his head, glanced at the crowd, and waved his right sleeve.
"The divine treasure has been opened, the immortals have returned to their places, let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind fell down, wrapping four people in the crowd and sending them towards the pool of water.
These four people are clearly Chen Jiao, Qi Bai, Dian Yunzi and Lu You!
The four of them were suddenly enveloped by the strong wind, and they instinctively wanted to resist and break away, but with a sudden thought in their hearts, all their magical powers disintegrated, and they were sent directly into the water and disappeared.
"Huh? Why did you come just now?" Qiu Yuzi was stunned and watched four figures disappear into the pool.
Long Xu and others were also caught off guard, and they all looked at the purple-robed man in the sky, with doubts and vigilance in their eyes.
