Chapter 854 Jinjing Yanyu

"Xiu'er, you have suffered all these years." Shi Mu had been listening quietly until Zhong Xiu finished speaking, he let out a sigh of relief, nodded and said.

"What about you, Brother Shi? How did you leave Blue Sea Star, and how did you become the Fourth Elder of the Giant Ape Clan?" Zhong Xiu raised his head to look at Shi Mu, and asked.

"My experience is a bit long... After you were taken away, I didn't know what happened, so I went to the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce..." Shi Mu, bit by bit, told his own story over the years. I roughly told Zhong Xiu about my experience.

Compared with Zhong Xiu's experience, Shi Mu went from leaving Blue Sea Star, joining Qinglan Holy Land, to resisting the invasion of the Dark Demons, and even sneaking into Lichen Sect, exploring the Kunlun Holy Ruins, and finally being destroyed by the conspiracy of the Heavenly Court. The experience of coming to the Milky Way Starfield is much more tortuous and bizarre.

Even though Zhong Xiu was mentally prepared, during the process of Shi Mu's narration, his expression was tense from time to time, and sometimes his face showed surprise, as if he had integrated into Shi Mu's strange encounters personally.

Time flies, and before you know it, nearly two hours have passed.

"...That's it, I became the elder of the giant ape clan, and I came here to participate in your succession ceremony." Shi Mu said.

"Brother Shi, although this grand ceremony is for me to choose a partner for dual cultivation, I myself completely disagree. It's just that the master and the clan have treated me well, and the current situation is quite unfavorable. I have no way to refuse them, so I propose the final The person chosen must be better than me. In fact, the greatest hope in my heart is that you can come, Big Brother Shi... In the end, the emperor paid off, and you really came." Zhong Xiu also let out a long sigh of relief. , said with a smile.

"You silly girl, what if I fail to come and you lose to that person again?" Shi Mu asked.

"Xuanji will delay for me." Zhong Xiu said.

"Xuanji? You mean the girl from the Tianfeng Clan?" Shi Mu was taken aback.

"Yes, I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with the place. It was sister Xuanji who took good care of me. I made a plan at the time. If I lose, then let her help me escape from Suzaku Star and return to the city. Lan Haixing is looking for you." Zhong Xiu nodded and said with a bright smile.

After hearing this, Shi Mu was moved for a while, holding Zhong Xiu's hand, he couldn't help tightening up a bit.

Zhong Xiu pressed her face against Shi Mu's chest, quietly listening to the powerful beating of his heart.

After a while, Shi Mu released Zhong Xiu.

"Xiu'er, Brother Shi will never lose you again." Shi Mu solemnly promised with firm eyes.

"Yeah." Zhong Xiu was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"That's right." Looking at Zhong Xiu's appearance, Shi Mu suddenly thought of something, flipped his palm, took out an emerald green jade bracelet, and handed it to Zhong Xiu.

"This is... this is the jade bracelet you gave me, Brother Shi. I always carried it with me, but I lost it for some reason a few days ago. I have been sad for a long time." Zhong Xiu looked surprised Said the color.

"Don't lose it again this time, or Brother Shi may not be able to find it again." Shi Mu took Zhong Xiu's hand and carefully put it on for her.

Although Shi Mu had some doubts in his heart, he didn't tell Zhong Xiu about the bracelet before.

"By the way, Brother Shi, Xiu'er also has something for you." Zhong Xiu said suddenly.

After finishing speaking, he put one hand into his cuff, and after groping in the cuff for a while, he took out a scarlet jade pendant and handed it to Shi Mu.

Shi Mu's eyes were fixed for a moment, but then, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

I saw that piece of jade pendant was as red as blood, and strands of golden crystal threads could be seen inside, emitting bursts of fiery breath from it. It was actually a piece of fire attribute origin.

"This piece of golden crystal flame jade was given to me by the patriarch when I first returned to the clan. I have been carrying it with me all these years to nourish Tianfeng's soul and my body. I heard from my master that Jiuzhuanxuan The cultivation of kung fu requires things with original attributes, and I think you will definitely be able to use this piece of jade pendant." Zhong Xiu said.

"No, Xiu'er, this thing is also very important to you, I absolutely can't take it." Shi Mu subconsciously refused.

"Brother Shi, Xiu'er has long regarded you as a husband, and you also said that you want Xiu'er to be your wife. Do you still want to separate from me now?" Zhong Xiu said with resentful eyes.

"Xiu'er, that's not what I meant. It's just that I can feel that this piece of golden crystal flame jade contains quite pure essence of fire, and it has been with you for a long time. It has already absorbed a lot of your heavenly essence." Feng Shengyan, if you continue to wear this item, it will be of great benefit to your future practice, so I must not take it." Shi Mu explained.

"Brother Shi, Xiu'er gave this to you not only for you, but for the future of both of us. Only when you are strong enough, Brother Shi, can we truly be together without hindrance. Did you also say that you will never lose Xiu'er again?" Zhong Xiu said sincerely.

"I……"

Before Shi Mu could say anything, he heard a sound from the window, and Cai'er flew in with flapping wings.

"Stone, why are you hesitating? At present, you have already completed the sixth rank, and you need the original fire attribute of the seventh rank. Now this thing is in front of you, why do you still refuse?" Cai'er Said anxiously.

"Didn't you let me let you out? Why did you run in?" Shi Mu frowned and asked.

"Don't talk about that, didn't you say that Zhao Jian was one step ahead of you, isn't it a good time to catch up with him?" Cai'er asked back.

"Okay." After thinking for a moment, Shi Mu said with determination.

Zhong Xiu was overjoyed, and immediately handed the jade pendant to Shi Mu.

"Xiu'er, do you know what is hidden around here? I want to refine this thing as soon as possible, and start the cultivation of the seventh round of Xuan Gong." Shi Mu held the jade pendant tightly in his hand, feeling the origin of the fire attribute contained in it. The power, opened the mouth to ask.

"Yes, Yanzhuo Mountain, 500 miles southwest of Fengyi City, is where I usually practice. Except for my master and other elders, outsiders are not allowed to enter. You can practice there with confidence." Zhong Xiu said.

"It's not too late, let's go there now." Shi Mu's eyes lit up, and he said immediately.

"Okay, wait for me for a while, I'll go change my clothes." Zhong Xiu replied.

After a while, the two took advantage of the darkness to sneak out of Fengyi City, and flew all the way to Yanzhuo Mountain.

After flying for about half an hour, Shi Mu saw a huge black shadow in the distance under the sky, with thick smoke still rising from its top.

There is Yanzhuo Mountain, a volcano with frequent activities.

Following Zhong Xiu, Shi Mu landed near the top of the mountain, then walked up more than a hundred feet, and came to the crater.

The walls inside the crater were scorched black, and the magma underneath was churning, a piece of crimson red. It was like a tide, constantly surging towards the walls, splashing out crimson starbursts.

"The ground fire is so strong. I don't know if there is fire essence in it. I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I really miss that taste." Cai'er stood on Shi Mu's shoulder, poked her head and looked into the crater, and couldn't help Said.

Shi Mu smiled speechlessly, turned his gaze to Zhong Xiu, and said, "Xiuer, then I'll go."

After all, he turned around and jumped straight into the crater.

Seeing this, Cai'er quickly flew off his shoulder and landed on Zhong Xiu's right shoulder.

Shi Mu fell, and when he was about to fall into the tumbling crimson magma, a light suddenly lit up under him, and a translucent crimson light curtain appeared out of thin air, lifting him up and sitting in midair.

When Zhong Xiu saw this, a light flashed on the palm of his hand, and a fiery red jade comb appeared in his hand.

It is only the size of a palm, no different from an ordinary comb.

With a movement, Zhong Xiu came to the top of the crater, holding the jade comb in his hand, and gently swiped over the crater, a dense red net appeared out of thin air and covered the crater. It completely covered Shi Mu's aura.

After finishing, Zhong Xiucai fell back to the side of the crater and leaned forward to look at Shi Mu.

Shi Mu sat cross-legged on the red light curtain, bursts of light had already lit up on his body, and the golden crystal flame jade was suspended in front of him.

I saw Shi Mu muttering something, his left palm pointed like a knife, he raised it slightly, and pointed down on the piece of golden crystal flame jade.

"call"

An invisible air wave swayed slightly, and the magma in the crater immediately swung towards the four walls.

There were streaks of light shining on that piece of golden crystal flame jade, and strands of cracks began to appear.

Only a light "click" sound was heard.

The ray of light on the Jinjing Yanyu shattered into pieces.

The dots of red and golden light shrouded Shi Mu like fireflies.

Seeing this, Shi Mu immediately closed his eyes, pinched the formula in his hand, and quickly recited the incomparably mysterious formula in his mouth.

Accompanied by the sound of chanting, the surrounding fireflies seemed to be strongly pulled towards Shi Mu's body, and all of them poured into Shi Mu's body.

"ah……"

Shi Mu's whole body was translucent, and his whole body became like gold paper, with a pained look on his face, he raised his head to the sky and screamed.

"Sister Zhong, is Shitou alright?" Cai'er asked with some concern.

"It's okay, there is my Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Flame in this golden crystal flame jade, the heat is too overbearing, that's why Big Brother Shi is in such pain, but I believe he can endure it." Zhong Xiu said with burning eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a golden phoenix shadow suddenly appearing outside Shi Mu's body, circled around his body for a circle, and directly wrapped him inside.

Immediately afterwards, the billowing magma under Shi Mu's body seemed to be attracted by a strange force, and unexpectedly surged out of it bit by bit, flowing towards Shi Mu's body.

I saw that the magma was like thick red matchsticks, wrapping around Shi Mu in circles, wrapping him up.

But in a moment, Shi Mu was wrapped into a big cocoon by the crimson matchlock like a butterfly chrysalis.

Soon, the light on the cocoon gradually dimmed and became pitch black.

It seems that the magma cooled down and turned into black coke.

But Cai'er soon discovered that under the big black cocoon, there was a crimson light as thick as an arm, flowing into the big cocoon through the red light curtain covering the magma.

When he was surprised, he saw that the big black cocoon glowed with light again, and there were lines and lines cracked on it, from which a fiery red glow appeared.

Seeing the big cocoon opening and closing, tightening and slowly shining like breathing, Cai'er couldn't help shaking her head and sighing: "I don't know how long the stone will have to stay in seclusion..."

Zhong Xiu stared fixedly at Shi Mu, his eyes full of anticipation.
