Chapter 1444
When the crowd in the basin heard this loud voice, they all raised their heads. A figure flew down from a nearby mountain and landed directly on the back of the Gold-Covered Spider. Before the crowd could see clearly, a powerful pressure came from that person's body, causing all the Qi Refinement cultivators to be unable to breathe under the pressure!
"A Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator?" Everyone was shocked, but at the same time, they understood.
"I greet Fellow Daoist Mo!"
Ling Zhengyi and Pu Jianyuan heard the voice and stopped in mid-air. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with bitterness, and then bowed.
The Gold-Covered Spider was hovering in mid-air, its golden spider silk still wrapped around the two Immortal Treasures. The two Immortal Treasures were no longer struggling as before. They floated quietly beside the Gold-Covered Spider. The person standing on the back of the Gold-Covered Spider was Mo Guang, the Foundation Establishment Stage elder who had set up the transportation portal in Xihuang Town.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, Fellow Daoist Pu, we haven't seen each other for just over ten days. Why … have you become enemies?" Mo Guang retracted his aura and said with a smile.
"This …" Ling Zhengyi sighed, looked at Pu Jianyuan, and didn't say anything else.
Mo Guang lowered his head and looked at the array below the basin. He smiled and said, "I want to see what's under the array. Unfortunately … the two of you aren't of the same mind. Before the array is broken, there's already an internal conflict. This kind of behavior is really unwise!"
Hearing this, Ling Zhengyi glanced coldly at Pu Jianyuan, his eyes filled with hatred.
That's right, the formation of the Flame Forest Swamp was only recorded in the ancient records of the Ling Family of the Dense Fog Mountains. Ling Zhengyi was currently organizing his own disciples, wanting to rely on his own strength to break the formation. However, he didn't expect that there would be other cultivators rushing towards Xihuang Town. Left with no choice, Ling Zhengyi could only lead the disciples he had gathered at the last minute and rush over. Fortunately, Ling Zhengyi had already sent many disciples over beforehand. Even if they encountered the Pu Family of the Soaring Phoenix Ridge, their strength was not inferior!
Since the Flying Phoenix Ridge's Pu Family had also discovered this array and seemed to have gathered their strength, Ling Zhengyi could only sit down with Pu Jianyuan and discuss how to break the array together. Moreover, with the disciples of the two families working together, the chances of breaking the array would increase.
Unfortunately, just when there was hope of breaking the seal, Pu Jianyuan suddenly turned on them. Not only did the array backfire, a huge amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi burst out from the array, killing more than half of the disciples of the two families. What made Ling Zhengyi even angrier was that such a huge commotion in Flame Forest Marsh would definitely attract the attention of other cultivators, and the secret of Flame Forest Marsh would be exposed.
Let's not talk about other people for now. How could Yanyuan City not know of Mo Guang's arrival?
"Fellow Daoists?
Since it's come to this point, you still don't want to tell I the reason? "Mo Guang wasn't in a hurry and asked with a smile.
"Please explain, Fellow Daoist Ling!" Pu Jianyuan cupped his hands and said.
"Go ahead, Fellow Daoist Pu. After all, Fellow Daoist Pu came first!"
Ling Zhengyi and Pu Jianyuan tried to push each other around. "Hehe, Fellow Daoist Pu should say it!"
Mo Guang waved his hand and cast a spell on the Gold-Covered Spider's body. The Gold-Covered Spider's body flashed with brilliance and the spider silk that was wrapped around the two magic tools quickly shrank. Mo Guang took out a spirit storage pouch from his waist and put away the Gold-Covered Spider.
When Ling Zhengyi and Pu Jianyuan saw this, they were overjoyed. With a sweep of their spiritual will, they retrieved the magic tools and looked at each other. Pu Jianyuan smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I will say it first!"
"Fellow Daoist Pu, please!" Ling Zhengyi raised his hand and said expressionlessly.
"I'll let Fellow Daoist Mo know that ten days ago, my Flying Phoenix Ridge's Pu Clan received a message from Xunyan School, offering a reward of Fire Essence Flame Crystals. As long as we can bring out enough Fire Essence Flame Crystals, Xunyan School will provide some secret techniques for us to choose from.
Fellow Daoist Mo should know that these secret techniques are what our cultivation families desire. Naturally, I would want to find some Fire Essence Flame Crystals. "
"Of course, if the Fire Essence Flame Crystals were easy to find, Xunyan School wouldn't need to offer a reward to our cultivation families.
Just when I was at my wit's end, I occasionally remembered some ancient books that I read when I was young. There seemed to be some records of this. "
"Fellow Daoist Pu went to look through the ancient books?
And found information about the Fire Essence Flame Crystals? "Mo Guang asked with a strange expression.
"Yes, that's exactly it!"
Pu Jianyuan smiled apologetically and said, "Although my Flying Phoenix Ridge's Pu Clan has many ancient books, I have only seen a few. After flipping through them, I naturally knew!"
"So, there are Fire Essence Flame Crystals under this magic array?"
Mo Guang's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but look at the magic array on the ground. He turned his head and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ling, is what Fellow Daoist Pu said correct?"
"Yes, what Fellow Daoist Pu said is the same as what I know!"
Ling Zhengyi's face was a little cold. He nodded and said, "The difference is that I have always known about this magic array. It's just that I don't have the ability to use the Fire Essence Flame Crystals!
If I can use this Fire Essence Flame Crystal to exchange for some secret spells of Xunyan School, I will naturally be happy! "
"Actually, as long as you all tell the location of this Fire Essence Flame Crystal to Xunyan School, wouldn't you all similarly get the reward?" Mo Guang's eyes flashed slightly as he asked again.
"Fellow Daoist Mo must be joking!" Pu Jianyuan said with a smile, "Who knows if there are Fire Essence Flame Crystals under this magic array?
If there aren't, wouldn't it be a joke? "
Mo Guang pursed his lips. How could he not know what Pu Jianyuan and Ling Zhengyi were thinking?
Probably nobody knew how many Fire Essence Flame Crystals there were under the magic array, right?
However, he didn't ask too much. He only thought for a while and asked again, "Then … your two clans' array breaking spells are the same?"
"Yes, that's right!
Otherwise, we wouldn't have joined hands! "Ling Zhengyi nodded and said.
"Hehe, since more than half of your disciples have already been lost, this magic array … I'm afraid there's no hope of breaking it!" Mo Guang looked at the disciples on the ground and said with a smile, "Why don't … I lend you a hand too?"
Ling Zhengyi smiled bitterly. Wasn't Mo Guang waiting here for this opportunity?
If not for the fact that the Ling and Pu Clans had array breaking spells, Mo Guang would have left the two clans in the dust!
"If Yan Abyss City can join in, this magic array will naturally be easy to break." Pu Jianyuan said with a smile, "However, how will the Fire Essence Flame Crystals be divided?"
Mo Guang looked at Pu Jianyuan with a smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Pu, it's I who helped you, not Yan Abyss City!"
"Eh?"
When Ling Zhengyi and Pu Jianyuan heard this, their eyes lit up. Just now, the two of them were depressed because they didn't understand the meaning behind Mo Guang's words!
Ling Zhengyi's eyes turned and he smiled apologetically, "Since Fellow Daoist Mo helped us, I think that Fellow Daoist Mo can get 85%. The remaining 25% will be divided equally between our Ling and Pu Clans. How about that?"
When Pu Jianyuan heard this, his face was also filled with joy. This way of dividing … was indeed beneficial to them!
Then, he looked at Mo Guang nervously.
Mo Guang seemed to be deep in thought. After a while, he nodded slowly, "Mm, both of your clans will provide array breaking spells. I will only use my hand to break the array. When the time comes, it will be very fair!"
"Great!"
Pu Jianyuan and Ling Zhengyi clapped their hands and smiled, "I will instruct the disciples to quickly set up the array. Later, we will need Fellow Daoist Mo's help to break this array!"
"Mm, I will wait for your orders!" Mo Guang nodded and said.
Then, Pu Jianyuan and Ling Zhengyi organized the disciples of their respective clans and stood on both sides of the array. These disciples had survived the backlash of the array and were all very strong cultivators. Just now, they had rested and consumed some pills. By now, they had already recovered by more than half!
Not long after, everyone was in position. These disciples were holding an old yellow talisman in their hands. Although they were disciples of the two clans, the size and style of the yellow talisman were the same.
Looking at these disciples, although they were a little scattered, they were arranged in a picturesque manner.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, we will begin to break the array again. When I call for you, you just need to pour your spiritual energy into the array!" Pu Jianyuan and Ling Zhengyi stood on both sides of the array and shouted loudly.
"I will listen to Fellow Daoist Ling's orders!" Mo Guang nodded and smiled. At the same time, he began to circulate his spiritual energy, ready to go.
Pu Jianyuan and Ling Zhengyi looked at each other. Ling Zhengyi said, "Fellow Daoist Pu, this is not a small matter. It is our last chance. Fellow Daoist … please don't have any other ideas!"
"Sigh, Fellow Daoist Mo is right above us. Fellow Daoist Mo, do you think I dare to do anything?"
Pu Jianyuan also smiled bitterly. Just now, he thought that victory was in his grasp, so he burned the bridge after crossing the river. He did not expect to go for wool and come home shorn. This time, he naturally did not dare to do anything.
"Okay, disciples of both clans, get ready!" Ling Zhengyi did not hesitate and shouted.
"Listen to Family Head Ling's orders!" Pu Jianyuan immediately echoed.
The disciples of both clans obeyed the order and poured their spiritual energy into the yellow talisman in their hands.
When the yellow talisman received the spiritual energy, it immediately emitted a faint fiery red brilliance. The brilliance gradually rose up, like a burning flame.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the faces of the disciples of both clans were pale. Their foreheads and temples were dripping with sweat. "Activate the yellow talisman!" Ling Zhengyi saw that the time was right and shouted sternly.
When the disciples of both clans heard this, they waved their hands at the same time. The yellow talisman flew into the air. The dozens of fiery red flames first drifted in the air. Then, as if there was a pulling force, they gradually gathered together and gradually formed two huge fireballs on both sides of the array.
Ling Zhengyi and Pu Jianyuan also clapped their hands and took out an almost identical hook from their storage bags. The hook was also fiery red in color.
Ling Zhengyi channeled his spiritual energy and the hook made a "sizzling" sound and bloomed with a fiery red brilliance. Ling Zhengyi spat a mouthful of blood on the hook. The hook made a "hong" sound and actually ignited. Looking at the opposite side, Pu Jianyuan on the other side of the array was doing the same thing. Ling Zhengyi flew into the air and raised the hook. Then, he waved his hands and a spell was cast on the hook. As the spell was cast, the two hooks above the array gradually changed. Ling Zhengyi's hook gradually became round, and Pu Jianyuan's hook gradually became wider. The two hooks were in the shape of a sun and a moon!
