Chapter 1390 The Path of Life and Death in the Dust Abyss
(There was a bug in the previous chapter, which has been fixed. You can reload it to read.)
Li Fan had a ferocious expression and gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know what a terrible experience it is to have a dream for a lifetime?"
"It's all caused by this weird villain! I want to get rid of these nightmares, so I came to your Qianli Hall."
"But it is an ancestral item after all. The ancestors left a legacy, and it must be properly kept..." Li Fan looked tangled.
Jiao Xiuyuan frowned and said, "Although the ancestral teachings are important, my life is more important."
"This thing is indeed evil and powerful, and it is an ominous thing. But don't worry, fellow Taoist, my Qianli Hall has always been fair and will not lower the price because of this."
Li Fan hesitated for a while and said slowly, "Sell it, it can be sold. But it's better to find out what secrets are behind this villain. Otherwise, it will be difficult to report to my family."
"Can you take a closer look for me?" Jiao Xiuyuan asked tentatively after hearing this.
Li Fan hesitated, but finally handed the mechanical man over.
The previous search had exhausted the man's energy. Therefore, even if it fell into Jiao Xiuyuan's hands at this moment, there was no reaction.
Jiao Xiuyuan looked up and down, frowning from time to time.
"Can you see anything?" Li Fan asked.
"Look at the appearance of this mannequin, it seems to be from the ancient immortal world [Dust Abyss]. It is said that the cultivators in this world are all of true immortal blood, born with three eyes, and have many magical powers..."
"But the strange thing is that I have never seen the material of this mannequin." Jiao Xiuyuan looked strange.
"Dust Abyss world?" Li Fan pretended that he had never heard of it.
"Ancient secrets, plus this world has long been destroyed. It is normal that you don't know." Jiao Xiuyuan waved his hand, without the intention of explaining in detail, and his attention was still focused on the mechanical mannequin.
At this moment, Li Fan was secretly manipulating the changes in the illusion array.
The mechanical man seemed to have suddenly opened his third eye, and shot out a beam of light, aiming directly at Jiao Xiuyuan.
Jiao Xiuyuan and Li Fan, both present, cried out in surprise at the same time.
By the time they reacted, the golden light had already disappeared. It was like an illusion.
"Dao... Daoist, are you okay? Wasn't that golden light an illusion?" Li Fan asked in doubt.
Jiao Xiuyuan nodded solemnly: "I saw it too. It was actually coming for me..."
Jiao Xiuyuan's words seemed to be a reminder.
Li Fan suddenly remembered something and said, "That's right! When I wanted to sell this mechanical man before, I was always restless and difficult to make up my mind. It was not until I walked to the Qianli Hall near Daoyou that I finally made up my mind."
Li Fan's expression became a little horrified: "Could it be that Daoyou really has an inexplicable connection with this mechanical man?"
Jiao Xiuyuan did not answer this time, and carefully explored the three-eyed puppet.
Not knowing what he found, his expression became more serious.
"This thing... may be alive."
After a long silence, Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly spoke, shocking.
"Ah?" Li Fan seemed to be startled, staring at the puppet in disbelief.
"It seems that some unimaginable extraordinary means were used to turn the living Dust Abyss world cultivators and seals into things."
"Although it has evolved into a thing, it still retains all the magic power and magical powers of a powerful cultivator with the blood of a true immortal!" Jiao Xiuyuan judged.
"This... this is impossible, right? Even the old man Chuanfa Tianzun can't do this to transform people with objects. Besides, didn't Daoyou say that the Dust Abyss Realm has been destroyed?" Li Fan was skeptical.
"Beyond Xuanhuang?" Jiao Xiuyuan muttered first.
Then, as if to verify his statement, he took out a green bottle from somewhere.
He poured out a drop of thick green liquid from it with great distress and fed it to the mechanical man.
"This bottle contains pure life essence. If it is a dead object, it will definitely not react to it."
"But if it still has the attribute of [life], it will inevitably absorb it instinctively."
As if to confirm Jiao Xiuyuan's words, the moment the green liquid approached, the two normal eyes of the mechanical man suddenly opened. Quickly absorb the liquid.
Li Fan still didn't feel any breath of life from it, but he saw the man come to life step by step with his own eyes.
The target locked by the man was indeed Jiao Xiuyuan.
The third eye shot out a golden light. Like a chain, tightly wrapped around Jiao Xiuyuan.
"Daoyou, are you okay?" Li Fan asked nervously, but he had no intention of helping, just watching from afar.
Jiao Xiuyuan, who was tied up by the golden chain, could not move his body, and his expression seemed to be frozen. There was no response at all.
"Don't worry, a little trick, how could it hurt me!" The speaker was still Jiao Xiuyuan, but it came from another corner.
Li Fan looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that a withered yellow branch grew out of the ground in the corner at some point.
The branch continued to stretch and evolve.
Another Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly walked out of it soon!
"You... are you a human or a ghost!" Li Fan was frightened and shivered. His face showed fear.
"Hehe, it's just a small clone method." Jiao Xiuyuan comforted.
After saying only one sentence, the mechanical little man in the Dust Abyss Realm shot out a golden light from the third eye.
Locked on Jiao Xiuyuan.
Still without any resistance, Jiao Xiuyuan was captured again.
"Daoyou!" Li Fan said tremblingly, his legs trembling, almost wanting to leave first.
"Don't panic!" Another voice appeared again.
The third Jiao Xiuyuan appeared in Qianli Hall.
His fate remained the same, and he was also tied up by golden chains.
"Let me see how much you can shoot!"
With a little anger, ten voices appeared at the same time.
In Qianli Hall, branches were blooming everywhere. Ten identical Jiao Xiuyuan appeared one after another.
Faced with such a strange scene, the three-eyed villain was a little confused for a while.
After a while, he shot out golden chains to search for the enemy.
But just three at the same time seemed to be the limit.
As if being squeezed dry, he returned to his previous dormant state.
"You are still a little naive to catch your uncle Jiao!" Jiao Xiuyuan snorted complacently.
Seven voices came one after another.
After saying that, six of them turned into dead branches again, withered, and shrunk back from the ground.
Only one was left, staring at the six locked selves in the field.
He slowly approached and touched the golden chain.
"This thing..."
It was like a phantom, and Jiao Xiuyuan's hand went through it directly.
Seeing this, Li Fan also curiously learned to try.
He couldn't touch it either.
"It seems to be formed by the innate magical power of the cultivators in the Dust Abyss Realm."
"It's really amazing."
Jiao Xiuyuan tried for a long time, but still couldn't touch its entity, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Jiao... Fellow Daoist Jiao. It seems that, it should be, the target of this mechanical little man is really you?"
"Could it be that the baby that appeared in the dreams of our ancestors is you? The mechanical little man came to our world to hunt down you, Fellow Daoist Jiao?" Li Fan's expression was a little scared, and his tone became more and more terrifying.
"But that's not right. Daoist friend, you don't look that old. The time doesn't match. Could it be that you are the descendant of that baby?" Li Fan looked at Jiao Xiuyuan, wondering.
"I should be the baby himself." Jiao Xiuyuan said very frankly.
"Ah?" Li Fan's eyes widened immediately.
"Old Jiao, I have lived much longer than ordinary people. It's just that most of the time, I am ignorant and act only on instinct." Jiao Xiuyuan said lightly.
"In fact, I still have some vague memories of my childhood experiences. It's just that they have been sealed deep in my mind and I have almost forgotten them. After this incident, I remember some of them." Jiao Xiuyuan's tone became a little confused.
"Daoist friend Jiao, are you really an outsider cultivator?" Li Fan stared at Jiao Xiuyuan closely, as if he wanted to see something. His expression was a little curious and excited.
"It should be... right." Jiao Xiuyuan hesitated a little, but finally nodded.
"I have no memory of what happened before the ball crawled out. But since the puppet that tracked me came from outside the Xuanhuang Realm, I think my hometown is the same."
"No wonder I instinctively want to practice the art of transforming into thousands of bodies. Is it just to avoid being hunted down?" Jiao Xiuyuan said in an inexplicable tone.
Li Fan sighed a little, staring at him in disbelief and said: "It's really hard to imagine how Daoyou survived alone from a baby to the present day, and founded the Qianlitang industry."
Jiao Xiuyuan waved his hand: "It's actually not difficult. In fact, since I can remember, as long as I do what I want, I have hardly encountered any difficulties. All difficulties will be solved spontaneously. Of course, doing business is an exception."
"It's really difficult to make money!" Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly sighed a little inappropriately.
"I originally wanted to solve my own disaster, but I didn't want to implicate Daoyou Jiao. If it weren't for me, this puppet would have lost its power and probably wouldn't have come to me." Li Fan looked ashamed.
Jiao Xiuyuan was very open-minded: "It is destined, and it cannot be avoided after all. Besides, I am afraid that this time, it is a blessing in disguise."
Li Fan was a little surprised: "Why?"
"I have lived in the Xuanhuang Realm for too long. I have been influenced by it, which has led me to inevitably follow the path of going against the principles of heaven and earth."
"It really helped a lot. If it were not for the new method of Tianzun, I would have lost my life when I was young."
"But some methods about my hometown have been sealed because of it. It is hard to remember them anymore."
"If it weren't for today's incident..."
Jiao Xiuyuan's expression became a little dazed.
As if he was recalling some important information deep in his mind, his brows were frowned from time to time.
His eyes became brighter and brighter.
Li Fan also faintly felt that there was a mysterious and abnormal aura coming from Jiao Xiuyuan. It fluctuated.
Jiao Xiuyuan seemed to have discovered something and looked around.
A trace of surprise gradually flashed in his eyes.
"Stop!"
When he was about to break through the illusion, Li Fan spoke indifferently.
The scene in front of Jiao Xiuyuan was shattered.
"Fellow Daoist Jiao, Fellow Daoist Jiao!"
"Why are you stunned! Are you going to sell this promised small medicine king tripod!"
An impatient urging voice came from his ear.
Jiao Xiuyuan was slightly stunned, and a flood of information suddenly appeared in his mind.
It turned out that he had finally dug up some small medicine king tripods with excellent appearance from the ruins of the former Medicine King Sect.
Not only can it be used as a storage magic weapon, it also has its own spiritual space and can grow various spiritual plants and herbs, which is of extraordinary value.
"Sell, of course..." Jiao Xiuyuan responded instinctively.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had learned from a monk who was very good at deduction that soon, a bolide would fall and return to Xuanhuang.
The essence of that meteor is most likely the Medicine King True Cauldron that carried the entire Medicine King Sect away.
By then, the remaining Little Medicine King Cauldron in the world will be the key to the true cauldron. The Medicine King True Cauldron is filled with the essence that the Medicine King Sect took away in the past.
The value of the Little Medicine King Cauldron, which exists as a key, will definitely increase as the tide goes up!
"Not selling!" Thinking of the huge profits that would be made in the near future, Jiao Xiuyuan's heart suddenly jumped and he changed his mind instantly.
"Fellow Daoist Jiao, why are you going back on your word?" The monk on the other side was anxious.
Jiao Xiuyuan, on the other hand, put away all the small medicine king cauldrons and closed the door to thank the guests.
He was thinking about how to raise the price of Xiaoyao Wangding as high as possible.
"Um?"
Jiao Xiuyuan felt vaguely that he seemed to have forgotten something extremely important.
But in the face of huge business interests, he decided to put it behind him for the time being.
…
Outside the illusory array, there is the mysterious and yellow realm of reality.
Li Fan looked at the golden locks in front of him with a gloomy expression.
Everything that just happened was within the phantom formation.
But what is real and what is fake actually evolves in the three-eyed villain.
It did receive a large amount of life force, and thus came alive for a short time. But the power of life does not come from the green bottle that Jiao Xiuyuan took out. It is the evolution of the power of the Immortal Formation.
The stimulation he received was real, and the golden chains ejected by the three-eyed doll were also real.
At this moment, it is frozen in the air, and it seems to be somewhat similar to the golden thread cast by the Heavenly Doctor.
In fact, there is a fundamental difference.
The golden thread of the heavenly doctor is the "power to drive and change the laws" obtained by the heavenly doctor's understanding and understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, and his practice.
And this golden light shot from the doll's third eye...
"It's a certain law itself."
"It seems that it does come from the magical power of the monks in the dusty abyss world."
Li Fan was not very interested in this mysterious three-eyed group.
No matter how powerful it was in the past, it is now just reduced to the end of being refined into a doll.
Li Fan was even more interested in this heaven-defying method of transforming life into objects, and the forces behind it.
"Cat treasure, Luo Fanchen, and this three-eyed doll."
"Outside the wall, there are life forms and law forms..."
"Sure enough, the way of foreign objects is used to the extreme." Li Fan's heart was heavy, but he was also full of awe of the unknown civilization outside the wall.
"Compared to the white circle, the way of forging this doll is relatively clumsy. Maybe it's a breakthrough."
