Chapter 246 Yao Yue Ruins
When Hanabi used vines to pull Qin Cheng onto the boat, his face was pale, and he sat there with his legs trembling, obviously frightened.
This is really not entirely Qin Cheng’s fault. The scene just now was indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand.
The vines growing out of the water pulled a giant snake out of the water with unimaginable force and threw it directly to the shore like trash.
From Qin Cheng's point of view, this means that there is a spiritual beast under the water that is far more terrifying than this giant snake.
"How about we come back next time." Qin Cheng said to Yu Xin with pale lips, "If that ferocious beast underwater attacks us, we won't even have a chance to fight back."
Zhou Lu looked at Qin Cheng speechlessly, who had begun to retreat. This kid was too timid.
Don’t say that what was just shot was Hua Huo, even if it was really an unknown spiritual beast, there is no reason to give up halfway.
You can’t just think that you have no chance of winning without even meeting him once, right?
But Zhou Lu had no intention of explaining anything to Qin Cheng.
Since he is willing to misunderstand, let him misunderstand.
If this person knew about Hanabi's specialness, he might tell others about Hanabi's situation later.
In comparison, Yu Xin and Yu Yanyan seemed much calmer.
Yu Xin obviously guessed something. She sat behind the boat and looked at the fireworks from time to time.
Yu Yanyan was chatting with her kitten carelessly.
"Hurry up and get over now." Zhou Lu looked at the angry and roaring giant python on the shore and said, "If it catches up again, it will inevitably lead to a fierce battle."
The throw of Hua Huo just now was actually nothing. Technical content.
It simply used crazy growth to make itself bigger, and then used the [Transportation] skill to directly lift the giant python and throw it out.
But this time Hanabi did not cover his whole body with [Crazy Growth], but only caused his underwater root system to continue to expand until he could easily lift the giant snake.
If the people on the boat could see the scene under the water at this time, they would be able to see the exaggeratedly huge root system under the boat.
Hanabi's body on the ship is still cute and compact at this time, and has not even released the [Lilliputian] state.
This can be considered an attempt by Hanabi.
It always feels that it is a very indecent thing to make yourself too big in front of your master.
If possible, Hanabi still feels that it is better to maintain her original cute appearance.
But if it wants to use the [Transportation] skill to lift a huge enemy, it has a rigid requirement for its own quality.
Zhou Lu had long understood Hua Huo's thoughts through empathy, so he specially formulated this tactic for it to amplify its root system.
When using this tactic, the root system of Hanabi's body actually does not move.
It will extend a walking stem into the ground or underwater, and then use [Crazy Growth] to cause the roots on the walking stem to rapidly expand and grow.
The stronger the attributes of Hanabi, the more exaggerated the speed of [Electrode Acceleration], and the [Crazy Growth] can also grow to a huge enough size.
Because Hanabi did not disconnect the stem at this time, the enlarged root system of the stem is also calculated as the body of Hanabi.
This gives Hanabi incredible power while maintaining her appearance.
However, this is only a theoretical tactic. Today is the first time Hanabi uses it in actual combat.
I have to say, the effect is very good.
The only doubt is probably whether this tactic will be as effective if used on the ground.
After all, the media of the two are completely different. What can be done in water may not necessarily be effective on the ground.
Fortunately, Hanabi has the racial skill [Escape from Earth], which allows it to continue moving even when the stalk grows a huge root system underground, and it will not even hinder Hanabi's normal actions.
The only disadvantage is probably that the fireworks need to drag a walking stem at any time, which may not be beautiful.
As soon as Zhou Lu's order was given, Hanabi immediately accelerated the speed of the boat.
When the python saw someone trying to land on the island, it subconsciously wanted to pursue him.
But as soon as his body touched the water, he instinctively withdrew.
It began to wander irritably on the shore, apparently fearing the monster under the water that threw it out of the water.
Under the hesitation of the giant python, the group landed on the small island in the center of the lake without any danger.
As soon as his feet landed on the ground, Qin Cheng, who had been panicked just now, suddenly returned to normal.
"What, is this all you have?" Qin Cheng tried his best to make his tone as relaxed as possible, as if this could cover up his gaffe on the boat.
It’s just that this behavior made him look more like a clown.
There is almost nothing hidden at the entrance to the ruins.
Even without Qin Cheng’s guidance, Zhou Lu had already seen the location of the entrance to the ruins. A huge statue stood in the center of the island.
The head of the statue has been destroyed, and its identity cannot be seen.
But this does not prevent the ominous atmosphere from the feet of the statue.
Zhou Lu directly summoned Yue Ya from the beast control card.
As soon as the crescent moon appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of the two girls.
It must be said that under normal circumstances, Crescent Moon appears in the form of a pure white lark, and its cute appearance is indeed lovable.
Yue Ya glanced at the statue in front of her and said directly: "I know him. The ancestor of Yaoyue Sect."
Zhou Lu narrowed his eyes.
The ancestor Xiao Lingyun talks about is the real ancestor.
Because of the characteristics of immortals, as long as they are always drawing energy, they are immortal.
So in the later period of the Immortal Age, many of the great men who created this Immortal Age are still alive and well.
As the most stubborn Xiao Lingyun, Yueya has witnessed the peak and decline of the Immortal Era.
So after the crescent moon of the contract, Zhou Lu asked it to tell him about the past of the Immortal Era, which could be regarded as letting him know about these potential enemies in advance.
To be honest, after listening to Yue Ya's story, Zhou Lu became more and more confused about how the original batch of beast masters buried such powerful immortals.
What they have to face is not just ordinary immortal monks, but also many powerful people who have ruled the world of immortality for more than ten thousand years.
It can’t be that because these guys have lived too long, each of them will be in their later years, right?
Yue Ya doesn’t know much about this.
"The battle between those guys was really terrifying. Even if I was just standing nearby, I felt like I was going to be shattered by the aftermath of the battle." Yueya said at the time.
"Legend has it that the Yao Yue Sect has a unique cage that is specially used to suppress those powerful demon cultivators who bring harm to the world." Yue Ya said to Zhou Lu in her heart through empathy, "Can the statue of that old guy suppress it?" There are not many people left, I think this is the legendary Yaoyue Prison.”
"Suppression?" Zhou Lu murmured in his heart.
"Hey, you can also think of it as a cold storage." Yue Ya said a cold joke without saltiness.
Zhou Lu smiled along with him, but in his heart he was assessing the risk level.
Yueya seemed to see the hesitation in Zhou Lu's heart, and said: "If it is an immortal in a sealed state, I can help you deal with it."
With Yueya's statement, Zhou Lu felt more at peace.
He turned to Yu Xin and said, "It's probably very dangerous here. Are you prepared?"
In fact, the best outcome is for Zhou Lu to go in alone. But after all, the location of this ruins was provided by Yu Xin and Qin Cheng, so Zhou Lu naturally had to respect their opinions.
Although we are still students, we are adults after all.
Since you are an adult, you should bear the price for your choices.
Yu Xin was also very steady. She looked at Zhou Lu's solemn expression and said, "How dangerous is it?"
She has a full understanding of her own strength, so she needs to evaluate the danger mentioned by Zhou Lu. What a level.
This really knocked Zhou Luwen down.
Yu Xin then said: "I'd better go in with you. After all, you came here because of my invitation."
We have already arrived at the entrance of the ruins. If we don't go in to explore, It always feels like this trip is in vain.
Zhou Lu nodded, then looked at Yu Yanyan.
Yu Yanyan also had similar thoughts.
Qin Cheng felt the gaze cast by Zhou Lu, with a hesitant look on his face, and finally said: "I give up. I'll hold the door."
This actually made Zhou Lu Somewhat surprised.
Being afraid of death is one thing, but how many people have completely forgotten that they are afraid of death because of the possible benefits?
Qin Cheng was able to give up entering at the entrance of the ruins, which was considered self-aware.
He knows very well that he can't even deal with the giant snake guarding the door. If he encounters a more powerful enemy when he goes in, isn't it just a food delivery?
Zhou Lu raised his hand and patted Qin Cheng on the shoulder: "Then please help us take care of our luggage."
Looking at Zhou Lu's familiar look, Qin Cheng The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
No, why do you feel like I’m here to be a wingman to help you pick up girls?
Looking at the two beautiful girls behind Zhou Lu, Qin Cheng nodded and said, "But if there is an emergency, I will leave without hesitation."
What he said was quite straightforward. , Zhou Lu actually quite appreciates this.
Although he was a little embarrassed, except for the provocative words he said at the beginning because he thought he was a love rival, Qin Cheng didn't do anything to particularly annoy Zhou Lu along the way.
"What did you just leave on him?" Yu Xin noticed Zhou Lu's movements and asked curiously.
Zhou Lu smiled and took out a bottle of white powder and gave them to Yu Xin and Yu Yanyan respectively.
"If you apply it on your body, you can avoid some mental attacks." Zhou Lu said.
As he spoke, he took the lead in applying the powder on his hands.
These powders are actually spores of the white dream fungus.
The main function is to prevent the invasion of mental power into the body.
For this time's exploration of the ruins, Zhou Lu was fully prepared.
He even thought about the possibility that the sealed immortals might try to seize their bodies.
The white dream fungus is a kind of fungus developed by Wu Xiaoqing specifically for immortals. It is mainly to prevent immortals from taking over their bodies and having the ability to hypnotize and brainwash them.
After doing all this, Zhou Lu asked Yue Ya to officially open the ruins.
As the entrance opened, a spooky and strange aura hit the face.
Jumping in from the entrance, the group directly entered a dark and quiet corridor.
Turning on the light, the surrounding rock walls are uneven, but there seems to be an unusually mysterious feeling.
Before he could take a few steps forward, Zhou Lu heard someone laughing.
“Jiejie, Jiejie, you finally can’t help but want to eat us, Master Yugong.”
Master Yugong, the ancestor of the Yaoyue Sect, A great power in the Mahayana period.
"Huh? You are not the real person of Jade Palace, who are you?" The man immediately noticed something was wrong.
At this time, Ghost Heart Purple Mushroom had already located his location through his power.
Hanabi has also sensed the opponent's position.
Without hesitation at all, he just threw out a leaf blade.
The leaf blade was directly embedded in the wall and did not seem to hit anything.
But before the other party could taunt him, he felt a terrifying force pulling him out of the seal.
This is much rougher than the eating movements of Jade Palace Master.
However, when he tried to struggle, he was horrified to find that his power was constantly being lost.
This is... what kind of power?
In an instant, he lost the ability to resist.
A beautiful flower blooms from the blade of a leaf, emitting a faint light in the air.
Hanabi happily patted the leaf, then made the other party's memory into a leaf disc and stored it in her little treasure house.
This method of absorbing memories from the opponent's soul comes from the racial skill of a certain deep-sea giant octopus.
Zhou Lu quickly learned about the past of this poor immortal who was instantly killed by Hanabi through Hanabi's disc reading.
Originally a mortal, he accepted the transformation from the True Lord and embarked on the path of cultivating immortality.
In the sect, he was not taken seriously and was repeatedly bullied by his colleagues.
During one day's routine cleaning of the Scripture Pavilion, he accidentally discovered a peerless magic book.
Unable to resist the temptation, he betrayed the sect and began to practice the grimoire.
In just ten years, he slaughtered more than a hundred cities, and he has long been known as the Bone Demon Lord.
This actually surprised Zhou Lu.
What was surprising was not the other party’s identity as a demon cultivator.
Zhou Lu had already guessed this.
What surprised him was that the Withered Bone Demon Lord lived in the late Immortal Era.
At that time, the immortal cultivating sect could not even recruit the descendants of its own monks, but it still had time to recruit mortals to become immortals?
Is it still possible to be a beast master?
"It's normal." Yue Ya felt the doubts in Zhou Lu's heart, stood on Zhou Lu's shoulder, and said lazily, "After all, he is a self-proclaimed upright person, so naturally he cannot do anything harmful to nature. But This appetite cannot be unsatisfied, so it is natural to cultivate some magic cultivation.”
"Let me tell you this, 90% of the demon cultivators here are probably related to famous sects."
"Huh?"
"Recruit mortals, train them to become immortals, and then induce them to become corrupted. Fallen and become a demon cultivator in this world."
"Then, the noble people can do justice for heaven and have a good meal."
"Sometimes they are so hungry that they don't even care about propriety, justice and shame. ”
"Ninety percent of the demon cultivators who escaped from the Immortal Valley that day betrayed the sect because they were found to have an affair with their master's mother." Yue Ya didn't forget to gossip, "Hehehehe, as long as these mortals can be turned into immortals They can do anything to force someone to become a demon cultivator."
"But what is the meaning of this?" Zhou Lu was slightly confused.
"Why is it meaningless?" Yueya yawned, "There are no bad people, how can they become good people?"
