Chapter 1,245 Slate falls into the pond

The ancient trees of the earth's veins are also in the network of the source of the Faceless Holy Emperor's power.

Therefore, after Ruomu surrendered, the Earthline Ancient Tree also had a vague feeling in his heart. However, he was not sure, but the feeling of fear and uneasiness in his heart was growing day by day.

"Now that we are all subordinates of the Holy Emperor, and with the Holy Emperor's protection, how dare he do anything to me?" Gushu could only comfort himself in this way.

The Ancient Earth Vein Tree knew clearly that only the Holy Emperor could save his life in this world.

And the more useful you are in the holy pilgrimage, the safer you will be.

Therefore, the Earth Vein Ancient Tree couldn't wait to prove its worth to the Holy Emperor.

It's a pity that since he came to Daqi of the Holy Dynasty, he seems to have been forgotten. No one took the initiative to find him.

Even the previously assigned task of sorting out the leylines of Daqi’s small world, no one came to check it.

This made the Earthline Ancient Tree quite depressed.

However, on this day, the opportunity for Gu Shu to perform finally came.

The person who came was none other than the fifth disciple of the Holy Emperor, Ou Shangtian.

"Is this a schematic diagram of the earth's flow in the Xuanhuang Realm?"

Ou Shangtian asked, pointing to the image in front of him.

It is densely packed, like a large underground network, extending to all parts of the Xuanhuang Realm.

Just like the blood vessels in the human body, they are constantly contracting and beating. It looks quite weird.

The Ancient Earth Vein Tree nodded and said, "Young Master, I understand."

Ou Shangtian also seemed to appreciate the praise of the ancient tree, and he simply accepted the title of "little venerable".

"I heard from Senior Sister Lin Ling that when walking on the earth's currents, the power of the Heavenly Dao in the Xuanhuang Realm spontaneously obscures it, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect it. Is that true?" Ou Shangtian asked again.

"That's right." The Ancient Earth Vein Tree handed over a dead branch, "My dear sir, let's take a look."

Ou Shangtian felt the power of the earth veins surging in the dead branches and frowned slightly: "I don't think this is a big deal. How can we block other people's perception?"

The ancient earth vein tree smiled slightly: "Young Master, please note that sand gathers to form a tower, and dripping water flows into rivers. Although the power of a little earth vein does not seem very impressive, when all the earth veins in the Xuanhuang Realm are gathered together, it is really mighty. , seems to have the power of thunder.”

"In the final analysis, the circulation of earth veins is also an important part of the normal operation of the Xuanhuang Realm, and the old man is just holding its power on his behalf. Compared with the eloquent principles of the entire Xuanhuang Realm, ordinary monks are just like ants, and it is normal for them to be ignored ”

Ou Shangtian stared at the diagram of the earth's veins flowing and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he came back to his senses, returned the dead branch of the earth vein, and said: "Just in time, I am going out to carry out the task assigned by the master this time, and I may need your help."

This is what Earthline Ancient Tree was waiting for, and he was overjoyed when he heard this: "Young Master, just give me your orders, and I will definitely help you wholeheartedly."

"There is a senior with unpredictable power in Xuanhuang Realm, who carries a stone slab on his back... Do you know?" Ou Shangtian looked at the ancient earth vein tree and asked.

The expression of the ancient earth vein tree suddenly changed, and the previous hospitality disappeared in an instant.

He stared at Ou Shangtian in disbelief, and after a while he asked tentatively: "Little venerable master, is the Holy Dynasty going to take action against Senior Shiban?"

"With all due respect, Shiban is truly in the realm of immortality, and has been enlightened for many years..."

Ou Shangtian waved his hand impatiently: "Of course I know the strength of that stone slab. Is it the realm of immortality?"

"Compared to Master, it's nothing!"

"Don't worry, I'm just responsible for luring them to a specific place."

Hearing what Ou Shangtian said, the Earth Vein Ancient Tree breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the mysterious Faceless Holy Emperor could subdue his father, it wouldn't be a big problem to deal with this stone slab.

Gushu cheered up: "Little venerable master, may I ask how I can cooperate?"

Ou Shangtian explained the detailed plan, and Gu Shu nodded thoughtfully, indicating that the problem was not big.

"Without further delay, I will leave immediately after I meet Master."

The ancient tree said: "My true body is still in Xuanhuang, and I can appear at any time as long as the little venerable calls me."

Ou Shangtian hurriedly entered the Holy Throne.

By the time he walked out, the anxiety on his face had disappeared.

"I have Kungan bone hands and a seven-colored jade gilded body. This time, I even received a treasure from my master. I have also learned formations for such a long time..."

"All we need to do is lead it to the fishing pond, and the mission is complete. It shouldn't be a big problem."

"But isn't the fishing pond a treasured place for our holy pilgrimage? Why did Master ask me to lure the enemy there instead? Aren't we afraid of any accidents?"

Ou Shangtian thought about it but couldn't figure it out.

But in the end, he was too lazy to worry about so much. He left Daqi Small World and went straight to Jiu Shan State of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

With the help of the turbulent earth currents, it took only a cup of tea to reach the territory of Jiushan Prefecture.

Ou Shangtian tried it, and sure enough, the space laws here were a bit chaotic and fragile.

If the teleportation technique is used rashly, it is very likely that the space will be torn apart directly, and the person will be sucked into the turbulent flow of space and disappear without a trace.

"But there is no problem with flying. These nine mountains can be difficult for ordinary monks, but they cannot be difficult for me with the colorful divine light."

Ou Shangtian thought so, and under his deliberate control, the colorful jade gilded light formed a circle of protection outside his body. Like the great sun in the sky, it constantly exudes its own rhythm to the outside world.

With a slight thought in his mind, a pair of armor that also exuded colorful luster suddenly appeared on Ou Shangtian.

The master's words rang in Ou Shangtian's ears at the same time: "This object is called [Liuguang Armor], which is made from the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt and Morning Breath Neon. After wearing it, the flight speed can be compared with that of thunder. More Can ignore most attack methods..."

Ou Shangtian gave it a try.

Looking at the top of the mountains ahead from a distance, he was in a daze, and the next moment he was at the top of the mountain.

"So fast!?" Ou Shangtian, the instigator, couldn't help but feel horrified.

With the dual blessing of the Flowing Light Armor and the Seven-Colored Jade Void Glazing, his speed has reached an incredible level.

Even though he was so ostentatious, flying in the sky with colorful brilliance all over his body, because the speed was so fast, no one in the entire Jiushan Prefecture could notice it.

Even the Hedao guard of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is the same.

Ou Shangtian was a little cautious at first, but after finally making sure that no one could notice him, he gradually relaxed.

He even felt a sense of pleasure in his heart.

"It's so happy, it's so happy!"

In the huge Jiushan Prefecture, he had already flown back and forth several times in just one breath. The feeling of speed made Ou Shangtian a little intoxicated.

At the same time, I couldn't help but feel a little confused: "Can you draw out the stone slab by just flying non-stop like this?"

"Is it so mysterious? I'm so fast, so he can't find me, right?"

"Would you like me to try slowing down a bit?"

Just when Ou Shangtian was distracted, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.

A scene suddenly came to mind.

The world suddenly darkened.

As if there were some invisible restraints, no matter how much he flew, he could not escape from the darkness.

In despair, his body could only slowly slide towards the center of darkness.

…

"!"

Ou Shangtian was shocked.

He knew that this was a spontaneous warning from his other accompanying miraculous object besides the Kungan Bone Hand: the Book of All Deaths.

"What the hell? Slate?"

The foreseen scene made Ou Shangtian's hair stand on end. He made a prompt decision and detonated a crown he had prepared for a long time.

In an instant, countless formations were deployed, protecting Ou Shangtian in the center.

The illusion of eternal death slowly dissipated.

But the sense of crisis in Ou Shangtian's heart did not subside, because as a formation organizer, he could clearly feel that the hundreds of thousands of formations he had arranged around him were disappearing at an incredible speed.

But from beginning to end, he never saw anyone breaking the formation. It's like something is swallowing silently.

The horror in his heart became more and more intense. While the protective formation was still effective, Ou Shangtian threw several more crowns around him.

Layers of formations were spread out one after another, and a shadow slowly appeared.

Ou Shangtian didn't dare to look any further.

"Leyline!"

With a secret cry in his heart, Ou Shangtian rushed straight from the sky into the ground.

Disappeared in an instant.

The thousands of formations he left behind were strangely compressed into book-page-like entities, and they all slowly floated in front of the figure that suddenly appeared.

The figure gradually revealed its true appearance, looking like a scholar, and the stone slab behind it was really conspicuous.

Whenever he takes a page from a book and reads it. The page disappeared from his hand, the fluorescent light flashed, and then it seemed to be imprinted on the stone slab.

The scholar was not in a hurry to chase Ou Shangtian who had escaped, but read all the pages in his hand slowly.

The originally calm face gradually frowned.

"Xuanhuang Realm, when did the formation develop to this point?"

"The light of the world..."

"Could it be an outsider?"

All the pages in his hand disappeared, and the scholar glanced at the location where Ou Shangtian was sensed.

"It's so fast. There are actually ancient trees of the Earth's veins as helpers..."

The scholar combed through the recent records on the slate.

No relevant records were found.

"There are more and more foreign states, and Slate, which claims to be omniscient, is gradually not living up to its name."

"Wuyou, you are right. There is never any eternity. The same is true for immortals, and so is the power that we immortals are proud of."

Although this matter clearly revealed the atmosphere of conspiracy, as if it wanted to seduce him.

But Shi Ban didn't have the slightest fear in his heart.

On the contrary, I am more curious.

Taking one step forward, the next moment he was already at the location where Ou Shangtian was before.

However, Ou Shangtian seemed to have been prepared for it. He had already penetrated into the earth's veins one step ahead.

The earth veins are rushing and roaring, and even the stone slabs cannot find a single ant in them.

However, Shi Ban was not in a hurry, knowing that the other party would definitely appear again. So he just stayed where he was and waited.

"Interesting. It seems that the person behind the scenes knows something about me."

Instead of being annoyed by the teasing, a faint smile appeared on the slate face.

In this way, bit by bit, the stone slabs were drawn to a peaceful Taoist temple in the mountains.

Ou Shangtian no longer fled, but stood respectfully behind a majestic figure.

Shi Ban's gaze also shifted from Ou Shangtian to this figure.

After observing for a moment, the smile on Shi Ban's lips finally disappeared.

Instead, a trace of confusion and solemnity emerged.

The person in front of him gave him the feeling that he was somewhat familiar, but also a warning of danger.

"If you can't feel the aura of unity of body and mind, is it not the realm of immortality? Or, like me, is it the ancient method of immortality?" Shi Ban secretly speculated.

"Aren't you tired of just standing like this? Come in and sit down." After a moment of confrontation between the two sides, Li Ping took the initiative to speak.

Just one sentence broke the tense atmosphere.

It doesn't feel like enemies meeting each other, but rather like friends who haven't seen each other for many years and are saying hello familiarly.

Shi Ban suddenly felt something strange in his heart.

But he still said softly: "Okay."

Follow Li Ping and enter the Taoist temple below.

After passing through the Taoist temple, Li Ping did not stop, but continued to a pond behind the Taoist temple.

"How long has it been since you carried this stone slab on your back?" Li Ping asked.

Shi Ban was startled for a moment, but then he didn't hide anything and replied: "Thirty-six thousand, nine hundred and forty-two years."

"Thirty-six thousand, nine hundred and forty-two years." Li Ping repeated the number.

"It sounds like a long time. But it is only more than 30,000 years. Compared with the life span of the Xuanhuang Realm, it is insignificant. Not to mention the sea of ​​stars outside the Xuanhuang Realm." Li Ping sighed.

The stone slab also agreed: "Yes, thirty thousand years have passed in a blink of an eye. For the heaven and earth itself, it may not be worth mentioning. But for an ordinary person like me, it is really a long time."

"Ordinary people..." Ou Shangtian couldn't help but muttered softly at this time.

Li Ping smiled: "Shang Tian, ​​don't be rude. This senior is right, he is indeed just an ordinary person."

Ou Shangtian did not dare to disobey the Holy Emperor and quickly bowed to the stone slab to apologize.

Shi Ban didn't care about him at all, but stared straight at Li Ping: "You... seem to know me very well?"

Li Ping did not admit it: "It's just that I feel the same way."

"I am just an ordinary person, but I have accepted a destined mission."

When Ou Shangtian heard this, he buried his head lower. I was afraid that I would show the slightest bit of strangeness.

Shi Ban was thoughtful and kept looking at Li Ping.

That tall figure is different from that of a monk in the ordinary sense.

The few auras wrapped around his body are also extremely mysterious. Let Shi Ban not dare to underestimate him.

"Fellow Taoist, why did you bring me here? Is it possible that it was just for a brief chat?" In the end, Shi Ban all asked and stopped the fight between the two.

"I'm here to help fellow Taoists escape." Li Ping said solemnly.

These straightforward words made Ou Shangtian raise his head, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.

Shi Ban narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but become wary.

"It seems that fellow Taoist has misunderstood me. I really want to help fellow Taoist escape." There was a hint of disappointment in Li Ping's tone.

The Faceless Holy Emperor pointed around.

"Is it possible that fellow Taoist didn't notice anything wrong here?"

After hearing this, Shiban's attention shifted from the Faceless Holy Emperor to the left and right.

Looking around, his eyes finally landed on the calm little pond.
