Chapter 865: Falling Sea Crystal
Wangyu has something to do during the day, so I posted two chapters together at night^^
………………
The cave was not deep. Although Shi Mu slowed down his pace, he still quickly entered the depths.
What appeared in front of him at this moment was an ice cave with a size of more than a hundred feet, but the ice here was all black, and the air was filled with biting coldness.
In the center of the ice cave stands a purple stone pillar, densely engraved with mysterious and difficult to understand runes, emitting a faint purple light.
On the stone pillar, a young man with a naked upper body and purple eyes was bound there by a chain.
The surface of these chains exudes a faint blue color, which seems to have some kind of confinement power. Even though the young man struggled, he couldn't move an inch, so that he looked a little out of breath.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the purple-eyed young man raised his head, and when he saw who was coming, his eyes suddenly burst into flames of anger, and he shouted, "Fang Ce, what are you doing here?"
The sound echoed throughout the ice cave.
"I'm not Fang Ce." Shi Mu smiled slightly, and the blue light flowed around his body, and he immediately recovered his original appearance.
"My lord, it's you!" Fang Zhen was startled and lost his voice.
"It's not too late to talk about other things after leaving here." Shi Mu said, and with a flick of his finger, a golden sword light cut on the blue chain.
With a "ding", the blue chain was not damaged at all.
"My lord, this chain is made of Luohai Mingjing. It is so strong that it is impossible to break it by ordinary means." Fang Zhen shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"What! Falling Sea Dark Crystal!" Shi Mu was not surprised but delighted.
When Gongshuzi listed the top-quality spiritual materials to raise the level of the Nine Dragons Lock Golden Armor, he had basically found all of them, only one falling into the sea Mingjing. He didn't expect that there would be nowhere to find it after breaking through the iron shoes, and it would take no effort to get it.
With a thought in his mind, an avatar emerged from outside his body, the blood-colored sword in his hand shone brightly, and blood-colored runes appeared faintly, and he slashed down without saying a word.
With a soft sound, the blue chain broke, and Fang Zhen's body fell from the pillar.
Shi Mu waved his hand and shot a white light, supported Fang Zhen's body, and at the same time picked up the blue chain with a happy face, and put it away.
At this moment, a burst of light suddenly appeared on the purple pillar, but it quickly disappeared without a trace.
"No, this is the restriction set by the elders of the clan on the Pillar of Trapped God. Once I escape, I will warn you!" Fang Zhen's expression changed.
"Walk!"
Hearing this, Shi Mu waved out the blue bowl magic weapon, and a blue light flew out, covering Fang Zhen's body.
With a flash of blue light, Fang Zhen was put into the alms bowl
After doing this, a yellow glow flashed on Shi Mu's body, and he disappeared into the ground without a trace.
As soon as Shi Mu's figure disappeared, an angry and powerful divine sense rushed over, covering the entire Hei Prison Peak in an instant, searching inch by inch.
In the depths of the ground, Shi Mu's whole body was flickering with yellow light and completely merged with the surrounding soil. The divine sense had passed over Shi Mu's body many times, but he didn't find it.
After searching back and forth several times, without finding anything, the consciousness was finally put back somewhat unwillingly.
Shi Mu waited for a while, seeing that the consciousness did not appear again, he then sneaked out of the valley.
In the ice cave of Hei Prison Peak, several flashes of light flew towards them, and several figures appeared in a flash. The leaders were Fang Ce and a middle-aged man with a short purple beard.
The short-bearded man stood side by side with Fang Ce, and he was indeed a great power in the divine realm.
Behind the two are two purple-robed men with holy ranks.
The four of them looked at the empty purple stone pillar, and their expressions instantly became extremely ugly.
"Fang Zhen! You let this kid escape! You should be damned! You should have not run far, and immediately sent all the Purple Tiger Guards to search for Fang Zhen, and make sure to catch him!" Fang Ce was furious and roared.
The sound echoed in the ice cave, and the whole ice cave shook for a while, countless fine ice chips fell.
"Yes!" The two purple-robed men of holy order agreed, turned and walked outside.
"Young master, the two holy guards outside disappeared without a trace. They must have been infiltrated and killed by someone. From this, it can be seen that this person is quite powerful. As soon as Fang Zhen's body left the Sleeping God Pillar, I quickly sensed , using the divine sense to investigate, but failed to find any trace of the person who came. Such a supernatural power must be a great power in the divine realm. Zihuwei may not be able to find this person, and even if he finds it, it is unlikely to snatch Fang Zhen back!" The short-bearded man said in a deep voice.
"Divine Realm!" Fang Ce's face changed slightly.
"Young master, Fang Zhen is irrelevant at all. The most important thing for you right now, young master, is to take over the position of patriarch. So what if Fang Zhen escapes, he can only be a casual cultivator for the rest of his life." said the short-bearded man.
When Fang Ce heard this, his eyes flickered, and he calmed down quickly: "What the elder said is true, but we have to investigate this matter. Since the one who saved Fang Zhen may be a great power in the divine realm, we may have to ask the elder to take action at that time."
"Of course, young master don't worry." The short-bearded man nodded and said.
Fang Ce's eyes flickered coldly, looking at the empty ice cave, he turned and walked outside after a while.
...
After an incense stick of time, facing a dense forest outside Thunder Valley, with a flash of yellow light, Shi Mu's figure emerged.
"Young master!" An Hua's figure flew out of the dense forest.
"Fang Zhen has been rescued, but this is not the place to talk, let's leave here first." Shi Mu sacrificed the blue bowl, and took An Hua into it. He turned into a black shadow and continued to fly into the distance. go.
In Thunder Ying Valley, streaks of purple light flew out and spread out in all directions, as if they were looking for something.
Shi Mu flew tens of thousands of miles before he stopped, near a mountain peak.
He waved out the blue alms bowl, waved out a formula, the blue light flickered, Fang Zhen and An Hua flew out of it and landed on the ground.
Fang Zhen looked much better now.
"Thank you for saving my life, my lord." He bowed and made a big gift.
"There's no need to be too polite, you and I are friends, and when a friend is in trouble, it's normal to help." Shi Mu said with a wave of his hand.
Fang Zhen stood up, eyes still full of gratitude.
"Why did you leave Fengyi City suddenly that day? And how did you get caught by Fang Ce?" Shi Mu asked.
"I learned something by chance in Phoenix Wing City that day. Because of the urgency of the matter, I left suddenly." Fang Zhen said.
"What is it?" Shi Mu raised his eyebrows and asked.
A stern look flashed in Fang Zhen's eyes, and he said with hatred: "Fang Ce has long colluded with the Heavenly Court, intending to betray the whole family and join the Heavenly Court!"
"What!" Shi Mu and An Hua were startled when they heard this.
Shi Mu's thoughts turned sharply and he snorted coldly, with contempt in his eyes.
If he remembers correctly, in the battle of Fengyi City three years ago, the patriarch of the Ziyan clan died in the hands of Tianting. Fang Ce, who ignored the death of the patriarch and went to the Tianting, is really a villain.
"Then how did you end up being captured by Fang Ce? I heard rumors that you were planning to assassinate Fang Ce. I'm afraid this is not the case." Shi Mu asked.
"After I heard the news, I rushed back to Zidian Star immediately, intending to inform the other elders of the clan about Fang Ce's move, but when I arrived at the Thunder Valley, I accidentally broke Fang Ce's secret meeting with the people from the heaven, and was arrested He caught him. If the fight hadn't alarmed the elders of the clan, I'm afraid I would have been silenced by him." Fang Zhen said.
"Since you broke through Fang Ce's plot, why didn't you raise it with the clan elders?" An Hua couldn't help but said.
"I said it naturally, but the people in the court have already left, and I have no evidence. The people in the clan have already been bought by Fang Ce, and he even slandered me to seize the position of patriarch and assassinate him. Who would believe me? " Fang Zhen said.
Anhua frowned and fell silent.
"So far, what are your plans?" Shi Mu pondered for a moment, looked at Fang Zhen, and said.
"Fang Ce betrayed the Zijing family and took refuge in the Heavenly Court. If he really takes over as the patriarch, my Zijing family may really perish in his hands. No matter what, I will prevent this from happening!" Fang Zhen said angrily.
Seeing this, Shi Mu secretly nodded.
"But what are you going to do? The grand ceremony will be held in three days." Anhua asked.
Fang Zhen frowned. At this moment, Fang Ce has controlled the whole family. No matter what he said, no one would believe it.
"No matter what, I'm going to give it a try. At worst, I'll lose my life, and I'll expose Fang Ce's true colors!" Fang Zhen gritted his teeth, with a look of determination in his eyes.
"You don't care about your own safety, and you are dedicated to the ethnic group. I admire it very much. Since you have the heart, there is no room for change in this matter." Shi Mu said suddenly.
"Really!? I don't know what kind of trick the young master has?" Fang Zhen said happily.
"I just thought of a plan, maybe it's feasible..." Shi Mu said with a slight smile on his lips.
After a few days.
Early in the morning, lanterns and festoons began to be displayed in Yinglei Valley. Purple and gold colorful banners were set up everywhere on all the roads and roads in the valley, and the whole valley was filled with a strong festive atmosphere.
Early in the morning, all the purple-eyed demon cows dressed in costumes and walked towards the valley along the wide avenue in Yinglei Valley.
The succession ceremony of the patriarch of the purple-eyed demon cow clan will be held on a trapezoidal altar in Neigu.
At this moment, everything has already been arranged on the altar.
On the east side of the altar, there is a huge black stone bull statue with a height of hundreds of feet. In front of the statue is a long table with incense burning on it and offering melons and fruits.
There were dozens of purple-red carved wooden chairs lined up in front of the table, full of old men with old faces and vigorous spirits, and all of them, without exception, were dressed in the costumes of the purple-eyed demon cow tribe.
And on a seat in the middle, sat a young man with a square face, who was wearing a rather large purple cloak at the moment, looking very graceful and luxurious.
It is none other than Fang Zhen's brother Fang Ce.
On the left side of him sat a middle-aged man with a short purple beard. His eyes were introverted, and his eyes were bursting with divine light. He was a strong man in the divine realm.
On Fang Ce's right, sat a thin, white-haired old man, with his eyes half-closed, leaning on the big chair, as if he didn't care about the surroundings at all.
However, the breath exuding from his body is also very powerful, not weaker than the middle-aged man with purple short beard.
