Looking at Venerable Wuxiang who died after blocking the fatal attack for him, Jiang Beiran fell into deep thought.
Death in Xuanlong Continent does not necessarily mean the end. The trouble is when the soul is destroyed or the body is sealed.
Although there are not many magic weapons and elixirs that can bring people back to life, there are still some. For example, Jiang Beiran has the Ice Silver Ring, a yellow-level top-grade magic weapon that can bring back the recently deceased.
But Jiang Beiran clearly remembered that when Mu Yao gave him this magic weapon, he said that this ice silver ring had saved one person in total, and he became crazy after he survived.
So what he was debating at the moment was whether he should use the ice silver ring to revive Venerable Wuxiang, or whether he should take her out first and ask the Xuan Sages outside. They must have more experience in this area than he did.
'Let's save him first.'
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran decided to use the ice silver ring to save Lord Wuxiang first. After all, although he had never saved a dead person, he had heard of one thing, that is, it is best to save the dead when they are just dead.
, the further back you go, the harder it becomes.
Anyway, try using the ice silver ring first. Even if you can't save him, it won't have any impact. If he goes crazy after he survives, Jiang Beiran can also cure him.
Since there is no loss in any case, there is nothing to hesitate. From the Qiankun Ring, he took out an ice silver ring with six corners burning with purple flames.
"go!"
Jiang Beiran threw the ice silver ring forward, and it automatically floated on the forehead of Venerable Wuxiang.
The next second, the purple fire on one corner of the ice silver ring suddenly went out, and at the same time, the flame patterns on the mirror also burned.
Seeing the ice silver ring taking effect, Jiang Beiran sat aside and waited quietly.
As time passed little by little, only the last purple flame remained on the ice silver ring.
Finally, under Jiang Beiran's gaze, the last purple fire was completely extinguished, and the flame patterns in the mirror were completely ignited.
quiet……
After Jiang Beiran held his breath and concentrated for a long time, he couldn't sit still because Venerable Wuxiang didn't react at all and was still lying there quietly.
'Failed?'
Just when Jiang Beiran was thinking whether he was unlucky or whether Venerable Wuxiang was unlucky, Venerable Wuxiang suddenly frowned.
Although this movement was extremely small, it was still accurately captured by Jiang Beiran.
'There's a show!'
Surprised, Jiang Beiran quickly shouted: "Venerable, venerable! Wake up quickly! Venerable?"
"Bell?"
"If you don't get up, we're all going to die here!"
However, no matter how Jiang Beiran called, Venerable Wuxiang did not respond. Instead, the color of the flame pattern on the ice silver ring began to fade.
'Don't worry, this is frowning upon. According to the normal plot, it is a precursor to survival. Just follow the rules!'
At this moment, Jiang Beiran only regretted that he had not studied the method of rescuing the dead. Faced with this situation, he was really unable to help at all.
'Um!?'
Suddenly, a white light flashed in Jiang Beiran's mind, and he remembered a very crucial thing.
He has already used all the magic weapons of the "three-year agreement", and has initially solved this major incident. However, he actually skipped an option that is very likely to be related to this major incident, which is to refine a furnace.
Here comes a prefecture-level middle-grade elixir.
Later, Jiang Beiran successfully made a furnace in the Holy Ruins and completed the options, but he still didn't understand what its function was.
Now that I think about it, it is very likely that it was used at this juncture.
Since there was this possibility, Jiang Beiran naturally had no reluctance to part with it. He directly took out a purple spirit pill that had been promoted to the earth-level mid-grade from the Cangyan bottle and stuffed it into the mouth of Venerable Wuxiang.
The original function of the Purple Spirit Pill was to heal wounds and suppress toxicity, but it is unknown what changes occurred after it was promoted to an Earth-level pill.
As soon as the Purple Spirit Pill entered Venerable Wuxiang's mouth, it immediately turned into Yun Qi and flowed into her body.
In just an instant, her shattered body was completely repaired.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Jiang Beiran, who had been mentally inspecting Venerable Wuxiang, suddenly heard two powerful heartbeats.
'efficient!'
But this surprise did not last long. After two heartbeats, Venerable Wuxiang's body stopped moving again.
"Work harder! You don't want to die here."
"Boom!"
As if hearing Jiang Beiran's words, two more powerful heartbeats sounded in the body of Lord Wuxiang.
Amidst Jiang Beiran's encouragement, Venerable Wuxiang's heartbeat rate became higher and higher, as if someone was constantly rescuing her.
"ha!!!"
Finally, after his heartbeat was completely stable, Venerable Wuxiang took a breath and sat up suddenly.
"Hahaha……"
Venerable Wuxiang, who was frantically breathing the fresh air, looked at himself and then at Jiang Beiran.
"Did you save me?"
"You saved me first, so it's even."
Seeing that Venerable Wuxiang had really woken up, Jiang Beiran was very happy, but he didn't know whether it was the ice silver ring that had the effect or the earth-level quality purple spirit pill.
Or perhaps both played a role.
But none of this matters now, as long as Venerable Wuxiang comes back to life.
When his breathing gradually calmed down, Venerable Wuxiang looked around, and soon discovered the Gu King's head stuck on the ground by Bai Shajue.
"you win?"
"To be precise, we won. The Gu King started vomiting blood after killing you. He must have suffered some extremely painful backlash. He vomited several mouthfuls of blood and internal organs and almost completely lost his fighting power."
"Anyway, it's good if we win, but how are we going to get out next?"
"No rush." Jiang Beiran waved his hand towards Venerable Wuxiang, "I still have something to do."
When I killed the Gu King just now, the system did not pop up any task rewards, which means that I did not complete the requirement just now.
[Use Chajue to completely kill the Gu Queen and seal it completely.]
After recalling this option, Jiang Beiran quickly discovered the clue. He had just killed the Gu King, but the option also required him to seal it.
Taking back the Black Sha Jue in the hands of Venerable Wu Xiang, Jiang Beiran walked slowly to the head of Gu King.
When it comes to how to seal the body of this Gu King, no matter which angle you analyze it from, it must rely on Sha Jue.
It's just that Jiang Beiran has no clue on how to use Sha Jue to seal the Gu King.
Picking up the Black Shajue in his hand and looking at it carefully for a while, Jiang Beiran got an idea after looking at the Jizo True Crystal on the hilt.
When Jiang Beiran forged this Sejutsu, he carved a formation on it according to the forging book that he didn't even know its function. Moreover, this formation was quite evil from the layout to the formation points, which made Jiang Beiran doubt himself for a while.
Will he create an evil sword?
‘Could this be a sealing formation? Anyway, let’s try it first.’
Thinking that there were no other clues now, Jiang Beiran decided to try the formation on the sword first.
He inserted Hei Shajue into the Gu King's headless corpse, and then Jiang Beiran pieced his head and corpse together.
'Hmm...no response.'
Seeing that the formation on Chajue Sword did not operate automatically, Jiang Beiran fell into thinking again.
'How can I activate this formation...'
At this time, Venerable Wuxiang, who had gradually recovered, walked slowly to Jiang Beiran's side, looked at the Gu King's body on the ground, and then at Jiang Beiran.
'Could it be that... he is really a traitor to the Gu clan?'
He has a body as strong as the Gu clan, a disciple as full of voodoo as Qu Yangze, and he is so familiar with the weaknesses of the king of the Gu clan...
Judging from all the clues, it is really hard for Venerable Wuxiang not to believe that Jiang Beiran is not the Gu clan. Even if it is true, he must be inextricably related to the Gu clan.
Seeing Jiang Beiran concentrating on thinking, Venerable Wuxiang suppressed her curiosity. After all, there are few secrets that no one wants others to know. What's more, after having been together for so long, she knew very well what kind of person Jiang Beiran was.
People who hate others who break the casserole and ask the truth the most.
"Can I help you?" Venerable Wuxiang asked after taking a deep breath.
"Do you know the formation?" Jiang Beiran turned his head and asked.
"Know a little bit."
"Oh, then you can rest nearby for a while. I'll call you when you're done."
"..."
Lord Wuxiang was a little angry. She thought that Jiang Beiran would speak more respectfully after knowing her true identity, but she didn't expect that it would be better if she was Xia Lingdang.
That is simply undisguised disgust!
But no matter what, Jiang Beiran saved her life just now, so the little girl stamped her feet before Venerable Wuxiang ran away and stayed aside.
After a while, Jiang Beiran suddenly had another idea.
'It would be great if we could lay out the formations engraved on the sword.'
Just as he said, Jiang Beiran immediately took out the talismans and talismans from the Qiankun Ring, and then began to arrange them according to the formation on the sword.
An hour later, the formation on the sword was enlarged by Jiang Beiran and engraved on the ground.
The moment the formation was formed, Venerable Wuxiang, who had been watching from the side, suddenly frowned because she sensed that this formation exuded an evil nature, a chilling evil nature.
As the organizer of the formation, Jiang Beiran certainly understands how evil this formation is better than Venerable Wuxiang, but its evil is different from the traditional sense. Simply put, it does not mean to harm one party.
It's simply weird, giving people the feeling of going off the rails.
'Anyway... let's try it first.'
Picking up King Gu and holding Sha Jue's head and body and walking into the formation, Jiang Beiran separated them and arranged them on both sides, then walked out of the formation.
Just when Jiang Beiran was about to try to see if he could use a spell to forcibly activate the formation.
The two swords suddenly released a coquettish purple energy, and at the same time, the formations on the swords began to rotate.
'Emperor Spiritual Energy?'
Jiang Beiran recognized at a glance that the purple energy released by Shajue at this moment was the imperial spiritual energy he had poured into it. At that time, Jiang Beiran felt that this thing was wild and untamable, and now it showed a demon-like temperament.
"It's so scary."
As Cha Jue released more and more imperial spiritual energy, Venerable Wuxiang could no longer hold back his inner curiosity. He walked up to Jiang Beiran and asked, "What kind of spiritual energy is this?"
Although she, as Xia Lingdang, had seen this spiritual energy in the ancient tomb at that time, she did not know what it was.
"Emperor Spiritual Energy." Jiang Beiran didn't hide it. After all, Venerable Wuxiang has now become the person who knows everything about him best. In-depth cooperation in the future will definitely be inevitable.
"Emperor Spiritual Energy!?" Venerable Wuxiang looked shocked. As Xuansheng, of course she had heard of this legendary spiritual energy, but she always thought that this kind of energy only existed in legends.
When the two of them were talking, the imperial spiritual energy released by Cha Jue seemed to have suddenly found a target and rushed toward the Gu King's head and body, and began to eat the corpse like a pack of wolves.
'It's really so evil...'
Seeing the way Gu King's corpse was being eaten away bit by bit by the Emperor's spiritual energy, Jiang Beiran felt that it was as if it were a living creature, which was fundamentally different from any other spiritual energy.
Soon, the Gu King's corpse was eaten away by the emperor's spiritual energy, and Jiang Beiran could even feel that they were still unfinished.
"Boom!"
At this time, there was a sudden sound like thunder in the emperor's spiritual energy, and then he got back into the realm of darkness.
'Is this considered...a break from the rest?'
[Optional mission completed, reward: Armor +1]
Looking at the option rewards that popped up, Jiang Beiran knew that he had completely eliminated this Gu King this time.
After all the Emperor's spiritual energy returned to Cha Jue, everything changed back to its original state, except that the Gu King's corpse on the ground completely disappeared.
‘It’s really evil enough.’
This was the first time Jiang Beiran had seen such a "brutal" sealing method. Was it sealed into the "stomach" of the emperor's spiritual energy?
With such doubts, Jiang Beiran walked to the two brakes and stretched out his hands, intending to pick them up and take a closer look at what had changed.
But the moment he touched Sha Jue, a powerful and extremely resentful profound consciousness poured into his mind.
"Who the hell are you! Let me out! Damn it! Who the hell are you!!!"
‘Gu King?’
When Jiang Beiran heard it, he knew that the owner of the voice was the Gu King who was eaten just now.
'Sure enough, he's not dead...'
I have to admit that this Gu clan's ability to regenerate is really outrageous. He had obviously lost his life breath just now, but Jiang Beiran believed that if he really thought he was dead just now, he would just leave this space.
It won't be long before he makes a comeback.
Listening to King Gu's extremely resentful voice, Jiang Beiran tried to communicate with him using his mental power: "You don't need to care who I am. Anyway, your life is completely in my hands now. You'd better be more honest."
good."
"Let me out! I will curse you! Let me out quickly!"
However, Jiang Beiran found that the Gu King seemed unable to hear him talking to him at all, so he had no choice but to shrug and gave up communicating with him.
Looking back at the sword body again, Jiang Beiran found that the Ksitigarbha True Crystal was flashing with light.
Jiang Beiran was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then he understood what was going on.
The function of the Ksitigarbha True Crystal is to protect the formation from being broken. Jiang Beiran originally thought that it was used to ensure that the seal would not be broken by outsiders, but now it seems to be to ensure that the people sealed inside cannot break it.
