Chapter 538 Key

In Qiuyue Mountain, the underground space.

Lingquan has become pitch black.

It no longer shines with silver light like before, capable of dispelling all darkness.

"Master Divine, Qiu Mei has left."

Quietly, a white shadow appeared, approaching the deep and silent spiritual spring.

Mo Du bowed deeply and hesitated when he spoke again, "She seems to be hiding something from her subordinates, and it is most likely related to the foreign invader named Djinn."

The darkness in the spiritual spring began to surge, and it was still spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It's like the entire underground space is gradually coming to life.

After a moment, two illusory moons quietly lit up, projecting a scarlet light as red as blood.

"She did hide a lot of things, and it's not just about the giant spirits, it may even be involved in the realm of Taixu."

Wei Tao's voice slowly sounded from the spiritual spring, "But as I told you, it is better to just go with the flow. If you take action when the time is not ripe, it will lead to unpredictable results.

At this point, not only I think so, but also the giant spirit who is hiding and afraid to see people. Everyone is waiting silently, and at the same time, they are tacitly helping her grow. It depends on when deeper changes will take place. arrival. "

At this point, he suddenly fell silent.

The entire underground space instantly became silent.

Mo Du didn't dare to say anything. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and stood there with his hands down, waiting quietly.

It was as if it had turned into a human sculpture, standing motionless in front of the spiritual spring and guarding it silently.

Time passed little by little.

From day to evening, and soon to late night.

Suddenly, the sculpture came alive at this moment.

Mo Du took a deep breath, frowned slightly, and looked at the few gravels at his feet.

The ground seemed to be moving, shaking at an ever-increasing frequency.

Starting from the spiritual spring not far away, it quickly extended to the surrounding stone walls, and continued to spread in all directions.

The next moment, thunder rumbled across the sky.

The entire Qiuyue Mountain seemed to come alive and began to resonate strongly.

The majestic spiritual energy poured out from the cracks in the mountains, forming an unprecedented terrifying spiritual pressure. It instantly broke through the dense clouds in the sky, revealing a dark night sky with a bright moon and few stars.

Mo Du had already knelt down, kowtowing towards the continuously erupting spiritual spring.

This was the first time since he took over Qiuyue Mountain's Lingquan that he had seen the Lord take action. His power was definitely ten times and a hundred times more powerful than the one he had in the wilderness of the North.

If at that time, he could still look up at the figure of the Lord of God, he could roughly calculate the height of the Lord of God.

But at this moment, Mo Du's mind went blank as he felt the mountains surging and his spiritual veins resonating.

It was as if he was facing the coming of divine power that swept across the world. Apart from worshiping, all he could do was to worship, without any other thoughts.

boom! ! !

The shock continues.

The spiritual blast rushed out from Qiuyue Mountain, heading south with unrivaled momentum, heading straight towards Qiuyue City shrouded in night.

………………

……………………

After the rain, the sky is clear and the sky is blue.

The bright sunshine shines through the clouds, casting Qiuyue City with a light golden color, making it look like a vibrant and beautiful scene.

The streets are full of bustling people, and all kinds of noises and noises are mixed together, showing the bustling and lively atmosphere of the world.

Qiu Mei walked into the city, pushed away the followers of the accompanying guards, and walked slowly and aimlessly along the street alone.

From time to time, I would stop somewhere and quietly enjoy the smell of human fireworks that I had not experienced for a long time.

It was mid-afternoon, and people were coming and going in various restaurants. The aromas of various stir-fries and frying were mixed together and penetrated into the nose along with the breeze.

"Not long after I left Qiuyue Lingquan, various visions quietly appeared again and began to tug at my heartstrings again and again."

Qiu Mei breathed out a soft breath and stopped in front of a small shop. She was speechless for a while.

It took more than two hours for her to stop here.

From afternoon to evening, until the sun began to set in the west and the sky gradually darkened, he did not move his body.

This extremely familiar city has become extremely strange in her eyes.

Everything around seemed to be wrapped in a vast mist.

Both this long street and the passing crowds seemed to have turned into blurry light and shadow, making it difficult to see clearly.

Various sounds were suddenly far and near, and finally intertwined and converged into the sound of rushing water. Even if the perception is closed and cannot be seen or heard, it still surrounds and flows in the consciousness.

In addition, she also had a strange feeling of being observed and spied on, which became more and more obvious as time went by.

Deep in the mist, above the sky, there seemed to be a pair of eyes hidden, focusing their gaze on her at the same time, never leaving her body.

She didn't know when it would suddenly appear, appearing in front of her without any warning.

"Thinking about the past is worse than looking forward to the future. Only by breaking through the fog of illusion can we see the ultimate reality..."

She raised her hand to hold her eyebrows, a painful expression flashed across her face, "However, I don't care about what is the ultimate truth. I just want to return to the calm life of the past. Even if I am shrouded in the fog of illusion and deceived, it is better than being deceived by everything." External forces force change.”

Time passed little by little.

Until the night gets darker, the pedestrians on the street gradually disperse.

Qiu Mei slowly exhaled a breath and gently moved her body, which had not moved for a long time.

Stripe after strand of blood flowed out of her seven orifices, flowing down her jade-white cheeks, and then illuminated by the lights around her, she looked like a ghost.

Qiu Mei looked up at the night sky, her eyes piercing through the thick fog and clouds, passing through the flashing light spots in it, and vaguely saw a pair of illusory eyes that were sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

She wiped the remaining blood from her lips and let out a long sigh again.

I don’t know if it was her illusion, but after going to Qiuyue Lingquan to meet the Lord of Pain, the various illusions she faced not only did not alleviate like before, but became even more intense.

More importantly, even the surrounding environment she was in seemed to be eroded by various abnormal illusions, and there were strange changes that had never happened before.

And the people living in it seemed to be completely unaware of the various abnormalities, like puppets deceived by illusions, constantly playing their own roles, and completely losing their true selves.

A quarter of an hour later, Qiu Mei crossed the long street and came to the tower in the center of Qiuyue City.

She was about to enter the tower directly, but she stopped after taking a step and slowly turned to look at a hotel behind her.

A middle-aged couple carrying packages also walked along the long street. In the end, they did not continue to approach the tower like her, but stopped in front of the inn.

The woman stroked her belly gently, as if she had been pregnant for several months and urgently needed to find a place to rest.

She leaned against the door frame of the inn, and suddenly looked back. Her eyes penetrated the dark night and happened to meet Qiu Mei's eyes, and then they went in different directions.

The two entered the lobby on the first floor, where they bargained with the waiter who came up to discuss the hotel.

After a few breaths, the two sides seemed to have reached an agreement, and the middle-aged couple picked up the gift and walked towards the suite upstairs.

The inn attendant followed behind him, holding a pot of boiling water in his hand, which was still steaming.

Qiu Mei frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

It was late at night, and the entire Qiuyue City was shrouded in darkness and silence. A faint light shone from the door of the inn, reflecting a trapezoidal bright band on the long street outside, which looked particularly eye-catching.

Her heart suddenly moved, and she found something wrong at this moment.

Where the middle-aged couple passed, everything was quite normal.

Neither the inn nor the waiter were covered by thick fog, nor did they present distorted and changing light and shadow, but clearly showed their original appearance.

When she was "sick", this situation could be said to be extremely rare. Only when she went deep into the underground spiritual spring of Qiuyue Mountain and came to the Lord of Pain, she would be temporarily relieved from the heavy pressure.

Qiu Mei took a deep breath and immediately turned back to the inn.

When she got closer, she suddenly became nervous again, so she turned around to make way for the main entrance of the inn, quietly crossed the side wall, and jumped onto the treetop closest to the guest room, secretly observing the two people's every move through the half-open window.

The middle-aged couple first unpacked their luggage and changed into clean outer clothes.

Next, they took out two porcelain bowls, soaked the dry food with hot water, and sat opposite each other to eat slowly.

The two ate very slowly and devotedly, chewing slowly to the extreme.

Although it was just boiled water soaked rice, it felt like delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

Even Qiu Mei outside couldn't stop swallowing her saliva, and was completely attracted by the bowl of steamed buns.

Time passed little by little.

The lights went out one by one.

The looming moon also disappeared into the clouds.

In Qiu Mei's perception, other places were completely covered by dark fog, and there were distorted and changing terrifying light and shadows everywhere.

Only the suite on the second floor of the inn was left, still emitting a faint light, bringing her the last remaining peace and tranquility.

It was like a bond that connected her to the real world, instead of falling down continuously until she was swallowed and drowned by the illusion that she could not get rid of.

Suddenly there was a slight creaking sound.

The window of the inn room was slowly pushed open.

Qiu Mei suddenly held her breath and saw the woman in the couple standing in front of the window and smiling at her.

In an instant, with this guest room as the center, the whole courtyard seemed to become a little different.

It seemed to be separated from other places in Qiuyue City, expelling all illusions, and even the more distant dark void disappeared at this time.

Qiu Mei took a deep breath and suddenly relaxed.

Without the erosion and harassment of various illusions, she got the long-lost comfort and tranquility.

This feeling was even more refreshing than staying with the Lord of Pain.

After all, the closer she got to the Qiuyue Mountain Spiritual Spring, the greater the pressure, like a mountain that almost made her feel suffocated.

The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "The night wind is cold, what are you doing outside on the tree, why don't you come in and drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Qiu Mei wanted to refuse, and even thought of turning around and running away, but for some reason she finally nodded and accepted the middle-aged woman's invitation.

More importantly, looking at the teacup in the other person's hand and smelling the tea fragrance that came with the hot steam, she seemed to have lost her soul, all her attention was attracted to it, and she almost forgot the purpose of sneaking in.

It seemed that the cup was not filled with tea, but a nectar that could make people ascend to bliss, and all they needed to drink was to forget all their worries.

At this moment, the man sitting at the table suddenly raised his head and looked out the window at the night sky shrouded in clouds.

"The aura of the remnant soul of the ancient god fluctuates, and it is possible that it is a giant spirit that has merged into the sea of ​​blood."

He put down the tea cup, and his expression was slightly solemn when he spoke, "It appears at this moment, and it probably has the same purpose as the two of us."

The woman turned around and took a look, "It seems that what Bi Luo said is indeed true, but I still can't figure out why she can tell the entrance to Taixu Realm so accurately when she is in Bi Luotian and fighting with the creatures in the sea of ​​blood. It is predicted that the ancient gods and giant spirits may appear here."

The middle-aged man gently exhaled a breath, "It doesn't matter. The giant spirit's body no longer exists. Now there is only a remnant soul left. Even if we confront it, we may not necessarily be at a disadvantage in a head-on fight. Maybe we can defeat it." Catch them alive and turn them into excellent nutrients for you and me to go further."

"What your husband said is absolutely true, but the giant spirit is an ancient god after all. Even if it loses its body, it is definitely not a kind person. Therefore, even if we join forces to fight against the enemy, we must not be careless in order to avoid various unexpected problems.

Thinking further, if we can really catch the giant spirit here, it would be quite a waste for us to eat it.

Instead, it is better to refine it and give it to this little girl. It is considered good steel and can be used on the blade. It can help us open the fog barrier faster and proudly peek into the truth of Taixu hidden behind it. "

The middle-aged man was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head slowly, "Your idea is good, but you have forgotten that too much is not enough.

Especially when the time is not yet ripe, if the remnant soul of the ancient god is injected into her body, it may lead to unpredictable consequences. "

"I certainly know the principle of pulling the seedlings to encourage their own growth, and that going too far is not enough."

The woman sighed faintly, "But husband, please think about it, we finally found her key, and we have occupied a relatively advantageous position for the time being, but now there are ancient evil and mysterious thoughts outside, and there are ancient gods inside. The remnant soul of the giant spirit has arrived, and the time really left for us is not very generous.

And as time goes by, no one can guarantee whether Biluo will spread the secret of Taixu in order to escape from the sea of ​​blood, attracting more eyes to pry and covet it. If we are still waiting for the opportunity step by step, I am afraid it will be difficult Maintain the current situation. "

"What do you mean?"

The woman lowered her eyes and looked at her slightly bulging belly, with a complicated expression on her face, "The meaning of my concubine is very simple, that is, to replace it with a spiritual fetus and become the new key.

Let her drink spiritual tea first to stimulate the source of her spiritual veins, and then if the remnant soul of the ancient god can be refined as a boost, she should be able to be incorporated into the spiritual fetus.

Only in this way can you and I truly take the initiative. No matter how chaotic the situation becomes, even if the ancient gods and evil spirits come to life, they still have to protect our lives, and we must be careful not to go too far. "

Qiu Mei listened silently, feeling a little lost.

He was staring at the porcelain cup in the woman's hand from beginning to end, and even forgot who he was.

"kindness!?"

The woman was still talking, but suddenly the conversation changed and her tone became a little confused.

"The remnant soul of the ancient god actually ran away?"

"Did it sense our arrival and leave in a hurry?"

The middle-aged man also looked confused, "That shouldn't be the case. Since we entered here, we have been hiding ourselves from beginning to end. Logically speaking, we shouldn't be directly discovered.

To put it bluntly, even if the remnant soul of the ancient god has a keen sense and smells your and my breath, he should not just run away without being detected, without even stopping at all. "

Having said this, he suddenly squinted his eyes and carefully observed the big trees outside the window and the urban buildings further away.

The ground seemed to be shaking slightly.

According to a fixed frequency rhythm, it is transmitted from far to near waves.

Buzz! ! !

As if there was an electric current, the furniture and furnishings in the room were trembling and whining.

The woman took a deep breath and looked at the teacup in her hand, watching the ripples on the water in the cup spread densely toward the edge.

"The spiritual veins are vibrating and resonating!"

There was a sudden movement in her heart, and she couldn't help but exclaimed.

The center of his suddenly contracted pupils reflected the shadows swarming out from the underground spiritual veins, quickly occupying almost all of his sight.

boom! ! !

Reiatsu appears and darkness descends.

At this moment, the entire Qiuyue City became deathly silent.

"Walk!"

The two looked at each other and made a decision in an instant.

Without any hesitation, the middle-aged woman threw away the cup in her hand and slammed the window of the guest room.

The tea was clear and translucent, exuding a hazy light like a dream, just a glimmer away from pouring on Qiu Mei.

But at the last moment, he was blocked by a large group of shadows and was not stained by any trace of the tea soup.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, and the entire inn building suddenly collapsed.

Then it turned into flying ashes and disappeared.

There was no sign of the middle-aged couple inside, only a stream of red and blue intertwined light cut through the clouds and left quickly.

boom! ! !

The underground spiritual veins seemed to come alive, like huge black pythons, stretching their ferocious bodies wantonly under the night.

It created countless bottomless huge cracks, instantly turning the northern wilderness into a mess, and then rushed towards the red and blue intertwined light.

"It's absolutely terrible."

"What kind of monster is it that can cause such a terrifying upheaval?"

"So, the ancient god's residual soul fled in a hurry just now, probably not because of us, but because it sensed the coming of the change in advance."

The two of them were in tune with each other, communicating seamlessly, and looked down again while flying rapidly.

In an instant, the red and blue light stagnated, and almost fell from the sky.

They only took a look, and their scalps tingled, their bodies felt cold, and they were speechless at the scene below that was like a landslide.

"It's the spirit vein. The spirit vein actually has spiritual intelligence and came alive, and for some reason it suddenly attacked the two of us."

"The spirit vein is the foundation of the Taixu Spirit Realm, just like the blood vessels in the body of an intelligent creature. How can it have an independent will?"

"No, that's not right. Something happened in the sky."

"That was the ancient evil and mysterious thought. As if under the control of the same will, it actually resonated with the spirit vein!"

The red and blue light intertwined and entangled, and stopped in mid-air without any sign.

Just in front of it, two scarlet full moons appeared quietly.

It was like a pair of illusory eyes that appeared and disappeared, casting an ambiguous gaze, fixed firmly on them.
