Chapter 169 Creation Instrument
Put your fingers together and take it into your hand. It is the Yinming Beast Crystal, the same as the one Nie Zhaonan obtained in the Yinming Land.
Putting the wolf-headed puppet on the ground into the storage bag, Nie Zhaonan continued to move forward.
Nie Zhaonan's idea is very simple. Even if these things are really useless, the design and structure of this puppet and its refining techniques can always let him understand some of the ancient monks' attainments and characteristics in puppetry.
After all, the highest level four puppet he refined based on the puppet scripture was only equivalent to the level of the late stage of foundation building.
But for these level four puppets, a full blow will consume an intermediate level spirit stone, which can be said to be extremely costly.
And this golden wolf-headed puppet is stronger than the monks in the pill formation stage. Generally speaking, monks in the later stage of pill formation are definitely extremely difficult to deal with.
But they can use the Yinming beast crystals to maintain operation for an extremely long time, which shows how extraordinary they are.
Since encountering the first wolf-headed puppet, Nie Zhaonan has encountered such puppets one after another.
But in front of the Geng Spirit Thunder Sword, which has been trained by Nie Zhaonan for more than a hundred years and has become unstoppable, these machine puppets are like being squeezed out of mud and are easily cut into two sections. There is no need for Nie Zhaonan to use it anymore. other means.
Nie Zhaonan did not waste these puppet remains and collected them one by one. He planned to study them when he had time in the future to see if he could get some inspiration from them.
After passing through several intersections and killing seven or eight more wolf-headed puppets, Nie Zhaonan finally came to a small teleportation array.
The teleportation array is located in the middle of a crossroads, emitting a faint fluorescent light, which is very conspicuous in a dim environment.
This is the teleportation array heading to the second floor.
In response, Nie Zhaonan naturally walked in without hesitation and teleported away in a burst of white light.
After a slight daze, Nie Zhaonan raised his head and looked around, his face slightly startled.
The same crossroads, the same bluestone passage, and the surrounding environment layout is exactly the same as the first floor.
Without too much delay, Nie Zhaonan continued moving forward after seeing the situation clearly.
Soon, Nie Zhaonan discovered the difference between the second floor and the first floor.
There are obviously fewer intersections than on the first level, and the distance between them is longer. And there are some serious restrictions and traps on the road.
Although these things are not yet dangerous to Nie Zhaonan, some of them are absolutely fatal to the monks in the alchemy stage.
After walking through a few more intersections, Nie Zhaonan saw the guardian puppet on this floor - the Snake Guard Puppet.
This puppet looks so disgusting!
Not only does it have two slender blue-red snake heads, but it also has four arms placed on the front and back of the body, and the body is covered by pieces of pitch-black scales.
It holds two green short swords in its front two hands. The last two hands were holding a shiny black whip, which was covered with sharp barbs and exuded a gray-white aura.
As soon as this puppet saw Nie Zhaonan, it turned into a black light and rushed over without saying a word. Its movements were extremely agile and fast.
Nie Zhaonan just smiled contemptuously, raised his hands, and raised them.
Two golden flying swords roared out and faced him.
As a result, a scene that surprised Nie Zhaonan appeared. The snake demon puppet moved as fast as a ghost, and the green bronze gun in his hand merged with the soft whip.
After the soft whip spun for a while, it danced and circled around the flying swords. Then the snake demon puppet pulled hard, and the soft whip immediately tightened, tightly binding the two golden flying swords. And under the action of huge pulling force, he pulled it in front of him.
Then the two green short swords slashed hard at the flying sword's blade respectively, threatening to split the flying sword into two pieces.
"Dang, Dang" made two loud noises.
The two flying swords were unceremoniously knocked back dozens of feet away, and made a series of collision sounds with the surrounding walls, sparks flying everywhere.
Nie Zhaonan looked unmoved, not worried at all whether the flying sword was damaged. How could the Gengjin Thunder Sword be damaged by sheer force alone.
However, he also put away his contempt for the snake demon puppet. With an inadvertent flick of his sleeves, more than ten small golden swords shot out.
"Then what method did Nie Zhaonan use to run so fast? I haven't seen him all the way." Tian Wuzi sacrificed a short ruler with white light, transformed into countless ruler shadows, and turned a wolf into a short ruler. The first puppet surrounded it, and after smashing it into pieces, he said with an ugly expression.
The dark and thin old farmer looked around, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said unhurriedly: "He is a star palace monk. He knows some shortcuts or circumvents some restrictions. That's It's an ordinary thing."
"Huh! Let's go, so what if he walks in front? It's not that easy to get the Xutian Cauldron," Wan Tianming said with a calm expression.
After saying that, Wan Tianming's eyes flashed, and he continued: "And the puppets in the subsequent layers are getting stronger and stronger, and there are even golden-haired puppets that are not weaker than the monks in the middle stage of Yuanying. He is in the early stage of Yuanying. It’s definitely not that easy for a monk to survive.”
“And I also have something in my hand, the ‘Creation Instrument’ of Tianji Sect. As long as we rely on this thing, we can avoid those puppet guards in advance and save a lot. Time." After speaking, a look of confidence appeared on Wan Tianming's face, and he touched the storage bag on his waist with his big hand.
In a flash of yellow light, a palm-sized object like a compass appeared in his hand.
A pointer on it is pointing to the passage to their left.
"What Brother Wan said is absolutely true. Let's hurry up and catch up." Tian Wuzi on the opposite side suddenly became happy when he saw the 'Creation Instrument' in Wan Tianming's hand.
The thin, dark old man who looked like an old farmer nodded silently and said nothing more.
Wan Tianming was not surprised to see this. He knew that although the black and thin old man was taciturn, the 'Jade Pill Technique' he practiced was quite powerful, and his real strength was still higher than that of Tian Wuzi.
It's just that although this person was born in a righteous way, he has always practiced hard behind closed doors and rarely communicated with others. This is why he has developed such an indifferent look. He can only say a word, which is already the limit.
Then, after he smiled slightly, he quickly swept forward, his body was extremely fast.
Tian Wuzi and the black and thin old farmer immediately followed.
Mrs. Wen and layman Qingyi, who had been silent all this time, looked at each other, the light in their eyes flickering, and they followed suit.
On the other side, after Nie Zhaonan released more than ten flying swords, the snake demon puppet was unable to withstand the siege and immediately showed its defeat.
When the snake demon puppet staggered and stood unsteadily.
Nie Zhaonan's eyes flashed, and he immediately activated the sword technique, and the flying sword suddenly burst out with golden light. With a sword cry, it pierced the puppet's chest and threw the green-lighting Yinming Beast Crystal. Knocked out.
Without the energy supply, the snake demon puppet immediately lost its ability to move and staggered to the ground.
With a wave of his hand, he took back the flying sword and put away the remains of the snake demon puppet according to the order.
However, when Nie Zhaonan held the two bronze weapons in his hands, he took a second look at these two rare treasures.
These two short swords are also good things. If they are given to an early Nascent Soul monk, they will be enough.
It would be a good choice to use it for trading in the future.
Next, when Nie Zhaonan’s imperial envoy attacks with multiple flying swords, even if the puppets on this level are more powerful, Nie Zhaonan can easily deal with them.
When encountering restrictions that could be circumvented, Nie Zhaonan also chose to circumvent them.
As a result, Nie Zhaonan passed this level without spending much time on this level.
Then teleport to the third floor.
Half a day later, on the fifth floor of the giant tower, Nie Zhaonan was looking at an extremely huge existence not far in front of him, a magnificent and tall stone platform. This high platform is more than a hundred feet long and wide and about thirty feet high. Directly in front there are hundreds of stone steps leading directly to the steps
The entire platform is made of a seemingly ordinary gray rock, and the outside is covered by a white mask including the steps. Among them.
But the strange thing is that the light mask is full of blue light. The closer to the center of the platform, the brighter the light. The fluorescent light keeps flowing, even
It makes it impossible for people to look straight and not see clearly what is wrong there, let alone the specific situation inside the mask.
Thick frost has condensed on the edge of the stone platform. The reflection of the ice appears crystal clear, making the platform look extremely beautiful.
On the third and fourth floors, Nie Zhaonan did not encounter any big obstacles.
The trickier thing on the third level is a restricted formation. However, Nie Zhaonan did not forcefully break the restriction. Instead, he bypassed the restriction based on the route he learned from the two old men surnamed Zhao.
Although the golden-haired puppet on the fourth floor was extremely powerful, he could still easily kill it with one blow after he condensed the golden giant sword and activated the 'Thunder Spirit Sword Technique'.
At this time, Nie Zhaonan did not immediately walk towards the high platform, but circled around the huge stone platform outside the light mask.
Of course Nie Zhaonan was not just spinning around in circles, but he was scanning the wall carefully with a flash of light in his eyes, as if he was looking for something.
After a while, Nie Zhaonan came to the back of the high platform. Corresponding to the light mask, there was a tall bluestone wall.
There are some patterns and runes from ancient times carved on the wall, which do not look out of the ordinary.
But Nie Zhaonan looked more carefully, staring intently, and even kept tapping on the wall with his hands.
"Dong dong dong"
A series of knocking sounds sounded.
After Nie Zhaonan's hand fell on a wall, there was a hollow sound.
A look of joy suddenly appeared on Nie Zhaonan's face, and then without hesitation, he exerted force with his arm and slammed his fist down on a piece of bluestone where the hollow sound was coming from.
There was a loud "bang".
This bluestone brick, which was engraved with the blood-red strange eyes of a winged monster beast, lifelike and full of violent and bloodthirsty, was smashed into rubble.
Expose the hollow sandwich inside.
There is not much space inside, only a slender, round, soft thing, like a stick.
Nie Zhaonan took it out with his unretracted hand and held it in front of him. It was an old and yellowed scroll.
After Nie Zhaonan unfolded it, a silver line jumped up. At the end of the line was an inconspicuous stone room.
This scroll recorded the exact location of the soul-nurturing wood. After checking it briefly and confirming that it was correct, Nie Zhao put the scroll away.
I didn’t go to get the soul-nurturing wood right away. The most important thing right now was to get the Xutian Cauldron.
After sizing up the mask, Nie Zhaonan smiled slightly and walked towards it.
A golden light flashed away, and the white light mask made a crisp sound, and Nie Zhaonan opened a large mouth about ten feet high with a sword energy. A white lightning bolt escaped into it.
In the blink of an eye, Nie Zhaonan was on the high platform and disappeared into the blue light.
The area where the mask was broken was restored to its original state, and no damage was visible at all.
As soon as Fang entered, the endless cold air from all around swept towards Nie Zhaonan. Even he felt slightly uncomfortable. He immediately released the protective spiritual light, and then the coldness on his body receded.
Nie Zhaonan glanced around. There was nothing else around except a small raised altar in the center of the high platform.
In the middle of the altar, there is a big hole, with a dazzling blue light emitting out.
Without any further stop, Nie Zhaonan walked straight towards the altar.
With every step he took, Nie Zhaonan could feel the surrounding temperature getting lower and lower, but he was able to completely isolate it by relying on the protective aura and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.
Walking up to the altar and coming to the big cave, Nie Zhaonan lowered his head and looked down.
After looking at it, Nie Zhaonan felt surprised.
The depth of this big hole was not as deep as he imagined, only twenty or thirty feet.
With his tyrannical cultivation, he could clearly see a dazzling blue light in the shape of a flame burning fiercely at the bottom of the cave
With.
In the blue flames, a tripod-shaped black object flashed.
It is the famous Xutian Cauldron.
And that blue flame is the fire of the most yin and cold. It is a big magical power called 'dry blue ice flame'. Even the long-famous Yuanying monks dare not A little stained.
Otherwise, even the Nascent Soul will be easily refined as long as it is burned a little by this cold flame.
Although dry blue ice flames are a great threat to monks, there are still some things that cannot be burned.
Thinking of this, Nie Zhaonan brushed his hand towards the open space on one side.
Two groups of white light appeared out of thin air in mid-air, and after a flash of light, they fell to the ground.
Two white spiders several feet in size appeared in front of Nie Zhaonan. They were blood jade spiders that had been cultivated for a long time. At this time, they were looking around ferociously, as if looking for some enemy.
At this time, these two white jade spiders have advanced to the sixth level. In another three to forty years, it is not impossible to advance to the seventh level.
Nie Zhaonan looked at the two spirit beasts as if they were treasures. He depended on them if he wanted to take out the Xutian Cauldron.
"Spray out the spider web to wrap the things in the cave, and then lift them out." Nie Zhaonan ordered.
When the two blood jade spiders heard this, they rolled their big eyes and nodded in an anthropomorphic manner, understanding what Nie Zhaonan meant.
Then they went to one side and stood at the entrance of the cave, one on the left and the other on the right.
Without any further orders from Nie Zhaonan, two milky-white spider webs shot out and turned into two white lights and flew into the hole.
Immediately afterwards, the milky white transparent filaments immediately tightened, and the blood jade spider began to move slowly backwards.
A muffled sound of "rumbling" came out, and then the entire high platform began to shake.
There was a burst of blue light in the cave, which was very dazzling. But the two blood jade spiders turned a blind eye to this and still dragged it back hard.
Although the Xutian Palace is extremely heavy, the entire high platform shakes as it shakes. But for the two blood jade spiders with extremely powerful bodies, this weight is nothing.
He still lifted the Xutian Cauldron bit by bit in an orderly manner.
