The golden magic circle is surrounded by fierce murderous aura.
Not only are there hair-thin golden needles that attack intruders from various angles, but there are also various puppets that suddenly appear from the mist and attack the approaching monks.
Originally arranged according to the formation, the golden needles and the puppets cooperated very well. Intruders often fell into the trap of the puppet while avoiding the golden needles.
It's a pity that this kind of killing array can only be used against the geniuses of Tongxuan Realm.
At this time, Liang Yan has entered the realm of transformation and has the ability to sense heaven and humans. No matter how well the golden needle and the puppet cooperate, there is no threat to him at all.
Wu Xin followed Liang Yan, as if he had predicted everything around him in advance, just like walking in a leisurely manner, easily dodging all the golden needles and puppets.
In just half a cup of tea, the two of them had already arrived at the center of the circle.
Here, Liang Yan stopped.
The surrounding golden mist has dissipated a lot, revealing a large open space. The open space is a bit messy, as if someone has been here before.
"Did you find anything?" Wu Xin asked beside him.
Liang Yan did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes, calculated with his fingers, and silently sensed it for a moment.
"The smell is very strong, it should be near us!"
Liang Yan murmured, suddenly opened his eyes, raised his hand and cast a spell.
He saw a dharma seal appearing in front of him. As the spiritual power circulated, the dharma seal dived into the ground, seeming to be searching for something.
After a moment, the land directly in front of the two people suddenly cracked open, and a ray of blue light flew out from the ground with a crystal clear jade pendant.
Liang Yan took the jade pendant into his hand with a single move. If he looked carefully, he saw a sword mark on it looming in the jade. It was the ancestral treasure of the Yang family in White Jade City, the Yang family sword seal!
"Why is the Yang family's sword seal here? Where is Yang Jianying?" Wuxin's eyes showed surprise.
Liang Yan sighed softly: "Brother Yang may have encountered something unexpected. He knew that I had the ability to sense the Yang family's sword seal, so he deliberately hid the sword seal here, hoping that after I find it, I can return the sword seal to him.
Yang family."
Although he didn't want to believe it, Wu Xin knew that Liang Yan was right. The Yang Family Sword Seal was very important to Yang Jianying and would never leave his body. But now that the Sword Seal is here but Yang Jianying is missing, it means that this person is in serious danger.
.
"How could it be that Fellow Daoist Yang was just out exploring the road, and in just ten days, an accident happened?"
Wu Xin's face was a little gloomy. In fact, she had a good impression of Yang Jianying because he once helped her save Liang Yan's life. Now that she knew that he might encounter an accident, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.
As for Liang Yan, he felt even more guilty.
If it weren't for herself, Yang Jianying would not be in danger. Now that the person has disappeared, the sword seal and jade pendant is still here, which is really ironic.
The two of them felt sad and were silent for a while.
Suddenly, Liang Yan's eyes lit up and he looked towards the open space not far away.
"Huh?"
Liang Yan let out a small sigh, which attracted Wu Xin's eyes to look over.
But she only saw a messy open space and nothing else, and a trace of doubt appeared in her eyes.
"Liang Yan, what did you see?"
Liang Yan didn't answer. He pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand to make a spell, and then waved his sleeves.
A soft breeze blew through the entire open space, and the next moment, the surrounding scene changed drastically.
Hundreds of golden columns appeared all around, most of which had been cut off and split into pieces, with only a small part of the edge still standing on the ground.
In addition, there are a large number of traces of fighting skills, ice, fire, sword marks, and traces left by the "Lightless Sutra".
"Luo Qing!"
Seeing this scene, Liang Yan and Wu Xin called out a person's name at the same time.
Obviously, Yang Jianying met Luo Qing here!
And with his strength, he is definitely no match for Luo Qing, not to mention that there is a controlled Zhao Xunzhen beside Luo Qing.
The result was obvious. Yang Jianying was defeated and knew that he was about to die soon, so he buried the "Yang Family Sword Seal" underground, hoping that Liang Yan could find it and fulfill his wish to return the sword seal.
"Luo Qing. I swear to kill this person!" Wu Xin's eyes revealed a rare ruthlessness.
At this time, the witch already hated Luo Qing deeply.
This person not only seriously injured Liang Yan, leaving her beloved with great wounds in her body, but also killed Yang Jianying, a friend who was kind to her and Liang Yan.
Just when he was unintentionally angry, Liang Yan suddenly said: "Luo Qing certainly deserves to die, but Yang Jianying may not have been killed."
"Huh? You said Yang Jianying is still alive?" Wu Xin was a little surprised.
"It's hard to say. I just checked and found that there are no signs of the monk's death here. Combined with the previous scene of Zhao Xunzhen being controlled, it is very likely that Luo Qing did not kill Yang Jianying after defeating him, but turned him into
He is the same puppet as Zhao Xunzhen."
Wuxin listened to Liang Yan's speculation, pondered for a moment, and nodded involuntarily.
She knew that Liang Yan had now broken through the realm of transformation, and the detection power of his spiritual consciousness was much stronger than her own. Some things that she could not see could not be hidden from Liang Yan's eyes and ears.
Since he said there were no signs of the monks dying here, then Yang Jianying might really not be dead.
Thinking of this, Wuxin frowned again and slowly said: "Since Yang Jianying is not dead, why doesn't Luo Qing search for souls? He can definitely find the Huoyuan Cave where we are and launch a sneak attack on us."
"We are injured, do you think Luo Qing will be fine?"
Liang Yan squinted his eyes, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"My sword has seriously injured Luo Qing. With his self-proclaimed cultivation level, it will be difficult for him to repair the injury in a short time. If he wants to face the two of us at the same time, even if it is a sneak attack, he will probably be wary."
"Also, the Yang family is a cultivating family with profound knowledge and possesses many secret techniques that are not passed on to others. Maybe he can prevent others from searching for his soul. With Luo Qing's current ability, he may not be able to defeat him.
Method."
After listening to Liang Yan's speculation, Wu Xin nodded and said: "Your analysis makes sense. The reason why Luo Qing used methods to hide the traces of the fighting here is probably because he didn't want us to discover his traces. This also explains from the side.
His injury has not recovered yet. It’s just that he didn’t expect that you have broken through the realm of transformation, and this kind of cover-up cannot be hidden from you at all!”
"snort!"
Liang Yan snorted coldly and said calmly: "We must meet after all! Since this 'old friend' has become a coward, we must give him a big gift."
Having said this, Liang Yan's figure flashed and came to the place where the traces of the fighting were the most intense. Then he reached out and grabbed a handful of black soil on the ground into his hand.
The spiritual power in his hands was flowing, and he was mumbling words in his mouth. He suddenly bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of tongue blood on the black soil.
The next moment, a wisp of black smoke emerged from the black earth, and Liang Yan used his fingertips to bring it between his eyebrows. Then he closed his eyes, making seals and casting spells.
After about half a cup of tea, Liang Yan suddenly opened his eyes.
"Have you found their direction?"
Wu Xin knew that Liang Yan had sacrificed a drop of his own blood. Although she felt a little distressed, she understood Liang Yan's feelings and wanted to find Luo Qing no matter what and rescue Yang Jianying from this person.
"Um."
Liang Yan nodded, his eyes very sure.
"It's just due north, not too far away from us. I guess they have arrived in Tianshu District."
Wu Xin knew that the "not far" he said was calculated based on the speed of flight. Although Luo Qing was extremely powerful, he had established his own cultivation here and could not resist the air restriction, so his speed would definitely be much slower.
"Without further delay, let's catch up quickly!"
"Walk!"
The two had the same idea and did not stop at all. Liang Yan used the mystery of "celestial induction" to quickly lead Wu Xin out of the formation, then activated the escape light again and flew towards the upper reaches of the Soul River.
Because he can fly in the air, Liang Yan's speed is far faster than ordinary geniuses. In just one day, he has left the Lishen District downstream and arrived at the Tianshu District mentioned by Ling Tiandeng.
According to Qi Ling, Tianshu District is the Treasure Pavilion, which contains Tianji Pavilion's secret records of magical powers and magical elixirs, and the guardian here is named "Lion Heart".
Liang Yan's first feeling when he came to Tianshu District was that it was bright!
If the Lishen District downstream is dark, then the Tianshu District here is bright.
The entire space was shrouded in bright silver light. Looking around, there were countless pavilions and pavilions in the distance. The interior of each pavilion was filled with treasures. It was obvious that extremely rare treasures were stored inside.
Seeing this scene, both Liang Yan and Wu Xin were a little moved.
"This is simply a large treasure house, and it is a treasure house inherited from the ancient sect!"
The idea came to both of them at the same time, but they did not act rashly.
Because they discovered a strange scene. Although the water of the Soul River was not as fast as downstream, the "Moon Painting Water" in the river was obviously several times more.
What's even weirder is that these "moon-painting water" actually flowed upstream, split into countless branches on the shore, and then flowed to various surrounding buildings.
"These 'Moon Painting Waters'."
Liang Yan and Wu Xin looked at each other, with a vague premonition in their hearts.
After activating the escape light again, the two of them soon landed in front of the nearest treasure pavilion.
Entering it, you find that the space inside is very wide, with four stone platforms built in the middle, and a treasure is suspended on each stone platform.
These treasures are all different. There is a jade Ruyi magic weapon, a bottle of pills, a scroll of scriptures, and a spear.
However, no matter the magic weapons, magic weapons, scriptures, or elixirs, they have no value at this moment.
Because, a pool of strange black water seeped into the Treasure Pavilion, contaminating all the treasures on the stone pillars!
The spear that was originally supposed to be golden has now turned black, with only the tip of the spear still shining with a hint of gold.
The jade Ruyi, which was supposed to be emerald green, was now polluted into black. Not only that, the spirituality on it was also stripped away, turning it into almost an ordinary stone.
There are also scriptures and elixirs, which, like these magic weapons, are soaked in black water and exude a foul smell. They are obviously worthless.
"Painting Moon Water"
Liang Yan and Wu Xin both took a breath. These seemingly quiet black waters seemed to have their own consciousness. In the long years, they actually corrupted all the treasures in Tianshu District and sucked them away.
of spirituality.
Wuxin frowned tightly, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Strange. Why do I feel a trace of real demon energy from these corrupted magic weapons?"
"The aura of true demons?" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you saying that there are demons like you in this Thousand Machines Demon Tower?"
"It's hard to say." Wuxin seemed unsure, shook his head and said: "The real demonic energy I can feel is very weak, and there are other things mixed in it, so I can't judge it in a short time."
After hearing Wu Xin's answer, Liang Yan fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he spoke again: "Anyway, we are already here. Of course we have to investigate Hui Yueshui's matter, but our primary goal now is to track down Luo Qing and rescue Yang Jianying first."
"Yes." Wu Xin nodded and said, "Can you still sense them now? Are they also in Tianshu District?"
After hearing this, Liang Yan calculated carefully for a while and said slowly: "I can trace their traces. Luo Qing has penetrated deep into Tianshu District. It seems that he came well prepared. The reason why he controlled Zhao Xunzhen and Yang Jianying,
He just wants to use them as his cannon fodder."
"Then we need to hurry up. These treasure pavilions have been contaminated by the 'Moon Painting Water'. Let's ignore them for now and catch up quickly."
"good!"
Liang Yan nodded, grabbed Wu Xin's hand, and flew towards Luo Qing's direction as the light escaped from his body.
After about half a stick of incense had passed, Liang Yan stopped the escape light again and landed on the ground with Wu Xin.
In front of the two of them, a unique building appeared.
If other treasure pavilions are all attics with red walls and green tiles, then this treasure pavilion is a magnificent palace!
This palace is located in the middle of Tianshu District, like a king who dominates the world, surrounded by his ministers, prostrate around him like stars over the moon.
"I can sense that Luo Qing is inside!" Liang Yan stared at this majestic palace with a flash of light in his eyes.
"Where are Yang Jianying and Zhao Xunzhen?" Wuxin asked from the side.
"They are also inside, but their situation is not optimistic."
Liang Yan pondered for a moment, raised his hand and pinched a magic spell. The Heavenly Secret Pearl was running in his body, and he quickly hid himself and Wu Xin's aura.
After breaking through to the Transformation Tribulation Realm, his control over the Tianji Pearl has also improved to a higher level. Now Liang Yan wants to hide himself, even Luo Qing can't find it.
"Let's go."
Liang Yan pulled Wu Xin and quickly walked into the hall.
I saw a long corridor inside, with many triggered mechanisms in the middle, as well as a lot of blood and minced meat.
The blood fell drop by drop from the wall, and it looked like it had just been splashed on.
