Chapter 244 Xiahou Zhi
After staring at Ye Chunyang for a while, "Golden Dragon Sanren" suppressed a smile, with a solemn look on his face, and said: "Fellow Taoist's spiritual knowledge is astonishing, and we are looking for ancient objects such as the essence of black iron. I think I have a lot of knowledge about ancient treasures." I have dabbled in it, but I don’t know if you have heard of the old man Tianmo?”
"Old Man of Heavenly Demon?" Ye Chunyang condensed slightly, showing doubts.
Seeing that he seemed puzzled, the "Jinlong Sanren" immediately said: "This person is a demonic cultivator. Thousands of years ago, he was invincible across the North Vein. He was just arrogant by nature. He killed many masters of various sects and provoked all the masters to join forces." He attacked and was eventually seriously injured and defeated, so he fled to another mountain and died."
"Just a few years ago, I was lucky enough to find the cave where the old man Tianmo sat before his death. However, it was hidden in the illusion of time and space. Even if I knew its location, people without extraordinary spiritual awareness would not be able to sense the exact location of the cave. "
"Golden Dragon Sanren" stared at Ye Chunyang and dropped a bombshell.
"According to your wishes, do you want me to explore the ancient cave of the demon with you?" Ye Chunyang's face was expressionless, but his heart was filled with excitement.
"Fellow Taoist must think that I am lying to you. You can rest assured. You only need to listen to my detailed explanation and you will know the hidden meaning."
Seeing Ye Chunyang's confused look, "Jinlong Sanren" smiled slightly and said: "This matter is all due to Xu Jinlong's credit. This person is a descendant of the old man Tianmo, and he has a lot of information about this place. It's just that This cave has extremely strong restrictions and is constantly changing in the illusion of time and space. He alone cannot determine the true location of the cave, so he found me."
"My name is Xia Houzhi, and I am Xu Jinlong's master. After following Xu Jinlong on a trip to the outer mountains, I thought I could find the cave and enter it. Little did I know that the magic circle was not only unpredictable, but also extremely powerful. It's far beyond imagination. If I didn't have some means to protect my soul, I would have been destroyed both physically and mentally. "
Speaking of this, "Xia Houzhi" could not hide his fear.
Ye Chunyang looked at him and frowned slightly. It turned out that this person was actually Xu Jinlong's master. In times of crisis, he could actually leave his body with his soul and hide it so deeply in the painting. His original body's cultivation level must not be low. The prohibition that even such characters fear like a tiger is by no means simple.
While he was thinking secretly, "Golden Dragon Sanren" added: "After the exploration failed, the two of us returned from the outer mountains and read ancient books everywhere, and finally learned that the space-time illusion array was the ancient spiritual array "Nine Revolutions of Magic" "Immortal Forbidden", there are a total of 983 formation eyes in the entire formation. Except for one which is a life position, the rest are all death positions. The person who triggers it will have a narrow escape."
"Nine Transformations of Magic Immortal Forbidden!" Ye Chunyang's expression changed slightly.
"Does fellow Taoist know about this formation?" Xia Houzhi looked surprised.
Ye Chunyang nodded slightly, showing solemnity, and said: "This formation is famous for its eye changes. It can create a magical space and cover up everything within a thousand miles. Its method of changing the eye is so dangerous and unpredictable that it can be included in the list of ancient spirits." One hundred in front of the formation.”
"That's right." Xia Houzhi nodded and said: "This Nine Transformations Magic Immortal Forbidden City is unpredictable and difficult for ordinary people to perceive. Therefore, I transformed into the Immortal Soaring Clouds Picture and ordered Xu Jinlong to frame the painting. If anyone can perceive the painting It's a miracle, it proves that the gods have extraordinary knowledge. As long as these people are gathered together, they can join forces to enter the cave."
There was a fiery look on his face, and he continued: "In addition to fellow Taoists, Xu Jinlong has also summoned several other people. If we can join forces, it will be easy to take down the treasures of the cave."
"Your Majesty's words are too much. How did you know that I would definitely agree to accompany you?" Ye Chunyang sneered.
"Fellow Taoist will naturally agree." Xia Houzhi was not angry, but said confidently: "According to the information Xu Jinlong received, there is the essence of black iron in the cave left by the old man. If Taoist friend can cooperate with If we work together, we can get what we want, which is why Xu Jinlong wanted to test fellow Taoist consciousness just now."
Hearing this, Ye Chunyang's heart was slightly shaken.
Regardless of whether the "Old Man of Heavenly Demon" has the essence of black iron in his cave, because of his invincible cultivation, there must be countless treasures left in the cave. However, the origin of Xia Houzhi is mysterious, and Ye Chunyang will not believe his one-sided words.
With a sneer, Ye Chunyang said indifferently: "I'm sorry to be honest, Jinlong Sanren is both your disciple and the descendant of the old man Tianmo. Why did you seize his body? Such an act of cutting off one's own retreat is really hard to win people's trust."
This person can even seize the body of his own disciple, which shows that his temperament is very hot, and if you associate with him, you will be afraid of endless disasters.
Although he really wanted to get the essence of black iron, Ye Chunyang was not stupid enough to seek skin from a tiger.
Xia Houzhi smiled nonchalantly and said: "Don't you think what my fellow Taoist said is ridiculous? The purpose of cultivating immortals is only to strengthen yourself. As long as you can get more beneficial resources, why not take away your own disciples? Besides, I also want to help Xu. Jin Long destroyed his original body only after he opened the Ancient Demon Cave, and now borrowing his body to seize his body is repaying retribution. It is what he should do as a disciple, and if I hadn't taken action earlier, I'm afraid Xu Jinlong would have already He lost his life due to the magical power of fellow Taoist, which was a waste of a good body."
Ye Chunyang felt a chill in his heart. This person actually thought that seizing Xu Jinlong's body was a matter of course. How ruthless is this?
Moreover, this person, no matter how early or late, chose to seize the body just when he was about to use the God-Searching Technique on Xu Jinlong. Are you worried that you know something?
There must be something fishy in it!
"Since you have cultivated to such an extent, fellow Taoist, you should know how to make choices that are beneficial to you. If you join forces with me, you can not only obtain the essence of black iron, but there are also many rare treasures in the cave to choose from. Why not, fellow Taoist? "Xia Houzhi said calmly.
After saying that, he stopped talking and just stood there quietly looking at Ye Chunyang, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
Ye Chunyang was gloomy. After coming to the North Vessel, he realized more and more how rare the essence of black iron was. He even used a thousand-year-old elixir to find out the whereabouts of this thing. If he missed this opportunity, he might never see it again.
But Xiahou Zhi had ulterior motives and must have a plan. Maybe he was not just looking for the ancient cave of the demon. Otherwise, he would not have to take over Xu Jinlong's body. He could just hide in the immortal soaring cloud map and follow him secretly. Such behavior was really suspicious.
Ye Chunyang was holding his head.
After a long while, he let out a long breath and nodded slowly: "Okay, since Daoist Xiahou is so kind, it would be ungrateful if I refuse. I will accompany Daoist this time, but if things are impossible, I will not stay any longer."
Ye Chunyang has never been a hesitant person. As long as he can weigh a plan that is beneficial to him, he will not hesitate. Although Xiahou Zhi is mysterious, his cultivation level after taking over the body is also in the late stage of foundation building. Ye Chunyang is not afraid of him. If the other party has evil intentions during the treasure hunt, at most he can just cut his neck with a mace.
Xiahou Zhi seemed to have expected that Ye Chunyang would agree to this matter, and immediately said with great joy: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, I have suffered from the Nine-turn Fantasy Immortal Forbidden, and I will never fall into the same trap again. Moreover, fellow Daoist has amazing spiritual awareness. With only the cultivation of the late stage of foundation building, the soul can leave the body. This kind of magical power is beyond the reach of countless people in the world of cultivation. With your help, great things will surely be accomplished!"
Ye Chunyang did not comment. Regardless of whether there was really the essence of black iron in the cave, the other party would not let him work for him.
Although he had other plans, Ye Chunyang did not show his expression on the surface, and asked calmly: "Just now fellow Daoist said that Xu Jinlong had summoned a few other people. I wonder which masters they are? When will we set out for the Heavenly Demon Cave?"
"Fellow Daoist, don't be anxious. The Heavenly Demon Cave is not an ordinary cave. Don't rush. Before that, I still need to make some preparations. We will gather here again in three days. As for the other people who joined forces, you will naturally see them when you come." Xiahou Zhi said mysteriously.
Ye Chunyang frowned slightly. The other party obviously didn't intend to elaborate after saying this, so he stopped asking.
It was those people who were accompanying him who didn't know how well they were cultivated, so they needed to be more cautious.
After thinking about it, Ye Chunyang knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he immediately clasped his fists and said goodbye: "Since this is the case, I also need to make some preparations for this, and I will come to visit fellow Taoist Xiahou in three days."
"After three days, I will be waiting for fellow Taoist here." Xiahou Zhi stood up to see him off.
Ye Chunyang didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and left the attic.
After his figure disappeared in the darkness, Xiahou Zhi put away his smile, stood on the balcony and stared at the night sky, with a little darkness in his eyes.
"I didn't expect Xu Jinlong to find such a person with super strong spiritual awareness this time. It's really God's help. As long as I make good use of this person, the treasure in the cave... Hehe, but this person can leave his body during the foundation-building period, which is really shocking. I'm afraid there is an old monster behind him. I must not let any news leak out. Besides, I just took over the body, and I need a few days to stabilize my cultivation."
Whispering gloomily, Xiahou Zhi moved and turned into a black shadow and disappeared.
...
It was four o'clock when he returned to the inn, but Ye Chunyang didn't want to sleep at all.
What happened tonight made him feel uneasy. Although Xiahou Zhi said a lot, he would not believe it. He could take over his apprentice's body for his own selfish interests, which was enough to prove that this person was selfish. How could such a person be willing to share the treasure with others? This time, he asked him to accompany him and he must be cautious no matter what, so as not to fall into the trap of the other party.
Lying on the bed, Ye Chunyang thought carefully, not missing any details.
First, Xiahou Zhi's soul was hidden in the Celestial Immortal Soaring Clouds Map as a lure, and then Xu Jinlong made an appointment at three o'clock. However, Xu Jinlong did not expect that the immortal master he relied on would take over his body, and everything was done for someone else.
"What exactly does this old guy want to hide?"
Ye Chunyang frowned deeply. He firmly believed that Xiahou Zhi did not intend to take over his body when he was about to perform the soul-searching technique. Otherwise, when the two of them were alone, they could have taken action at any time. As for why he chose this time, Ye Chunyang was puzzled.
Moreover, when he and Lady Xue first arrived at the attic, Ye Chunyang only felt that the Celestial Immortal Soaring Clouds Map was drawn with his spiritual consciousness, but he could not sense that Xiahou Zhi's soul was hidden in it, which showed that this person was hiding deeply.
The more he thought about it, the more Ye Chunyang felt that he needed to be extra careful on this trip to the outside mountain.
Frowning, he muttered to himself: "It seems that I need to make some preparations before this trip. I will go to Xiangyun to open a cave tomorrow morning. I wonder which cave I can rent in Xiangyun with my current wealth?"
