Shenwu Batian Jue

Chapter 96
The inner courtyard was quiet, and the room was even quieter. The only thing Su Yan could hear was the heartbeat and breathing of himself and his senior sister Reimu.

After a brief breath adjustment, his body recovered to its peak state, Su Yan's mind shifted to the calligraphy and painting hanging on the right wall.

He got out of bed and walked to the calligraphy and painting, watching quietly.

Originally ordinary calligraphy and painting, now in his eyes have become complex spirit patterns, especially the word "vessel" written on it, which has the most and most complicated spirit patterns intertwined.After counting, the number of spirit patterns is nearly [-]!
So far, Su Yan once again affirmed that the word "Qi" on the calligraphy and painting was definitely not made by Ling Zhuzi.

Some time ago, he successively upgraded the fifth-, sixth-, and seventh-level spirit weapons by refining the array diagrams, and carefully studied the spirit patterns of the various array diagrams in the three spiritual weapons.However, even for the Sunset Gloves with a grade as high as the seventh rank, there are less than a thousand spirit patterns intertwined with the three formations inside, and the arrangement rules are far from reaching this level.

According to Su Yan's knowledge, although Lingzhuzi can be regarded as the strongest weapon refiner in Cairo, he can only refine first-grade profound weapons at the highest.If Ling Zhuzi's knowledge of the refining array reached the level of the word "Qi" written on the calligraphy and painting, plus his experience in refining weapons for more than a hundred years, he would definitely be able to refine higher-grade weapons!

"Junior brother, how are you doing? Do you have any new discoveries?" Lingmeng sat cross-legged in the golden blood circle on the bed. She didn't get out of bed, maybe because she knew that there was danger dormant here, and it was safer to stay in the circle, and she didn't want something to happen. Sometimes Su Yan was distracted by himself.

"I can now be completely sure that this calligraphy and painting is absolutely impossible to come from the hands of Lingzhuzi. It should be something that Lingzhuzi got from somewhere. Hanging it on this wall should be convenient for participating in research. However, back then That weird thing happened, the Artifact Refining Academy moved away, but Ling Zhuzi gave up his precious calligraphy and paintings..."
After finishing speaking, Su Yan continued to look at the calligraphy and painting. He found that this calligraphy and painting was very old, and it was not the general paper used in the world of cultivation. Let alone this kind of material, he had never even heard of it.

"It's not the paper material of this era, it seems to be logical, it should be left over from ancient times. But why did Lingzhuzi leave it here? Logically speaking, Lingzhuzi should not have the array of spirits contained in it. Wen figured it out clearly, otherwise higher-grade utensils would have been refined over the years. After all, the status of an utensil refiner is linked to the level of the utensils he refines. He has been immersed in this way for nearly 200 years, and he wants to break through the shackles in his dreams , it is absolutely impossible to hide your ability..."
Su Yan fell into deep thought. After thinking for a while, his mind returned to the calligraphy and painting, and he frowned: "Could it be that there is something wrong with this calligraphy and painting?"

Hearing this, Reimu on the bed suddenly felt a chill in his heart, a gust of wind suddenly blew outside the room, and there was a sound of "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooacol" and creaking doors and windows.

"Junior brother... What's the problem with calligraphy and painting..." Lingmeng forced herself to calm down, but she still felt a wave of horror in her heart, faintly feeling a pair of cold and terrifying eyes staring at herself and Su Yan in the dark.

"I don't know yet, I need to study further." Su Yan responded softly, reaching out to remove the calligraphy and painting on the wall.As soon as his hands touched the calligraphy and painting, he was suddenly startled, and a cold chill suddenly penetrated into his body.

In an instant, Su Yan felt his whole body was icy cold, even his blood was about to be frozen, and the cold wind was pouring into the crevices of his bones, he almost didn't throw the calligraphy and painting in his hand.

"Junior brother, what's wrong with you?" Although the light in the room was dim, Lingmeng's thoughts were always on Su Yan. Seeing him take off the calligraphy and painting, his whole body trembled and his body seemed to be stiff. "Junior brother, don't scare me..."
Su Yan didn't respond, his body trembled violently, and an incomparably cold aura penetrated into his body through the palm of his hand. This aura was not only cold but also full of evil, invading his limbs and bones, and at the same time crazily flocked to the gods. Knowing the sea, forcibly eroding his soul.

"when--"
At the critical moment, Su Yan felt a heat between his brows, the celestial light in the sea of ​​consciousness was blazing, and the accompanying ancient pagoda fell from the sky, protecting the soul in it, blocking the cold and evil aura.

"Boom!"
Almost at the same time, a landslide, tsunami, lightning and thunder erupted from Su Yan's body.He found that his blood boiled involuntarily, and the Yanyang True Qi and Dark Dark True Qi in his dantian condensed into a condensed river that was surging and surging.

The golden flame of the sun ignited on the surface of his body, and wisps of black gas overflowed from the pores, rushing towards Reimu on the bed.

"Boom!"
The golden blood circle on the edge of the bed bloomed with blazing golden light, igniting a flame that was as strong as the sun, forming a flame light curtain.The impact of the black gas made a muffled sound on the golden light curtain, causing Reimu on the bed to turn pale with shock.

"Junior brother! How are you?" Although Lingmeng was afraid of the sudden situation, she was still worried about Su Yan in her heart, and she was about to rush out of bed as she spoke.

"Don't move! Don't leave the protective range of Yanyang's holy blood, I'm fine!" Su Yan hurriedly stopped her, and at the same time felt that the cold and evil power in his body disappeared. He looked at the burning flames in his body Yang Zhihuo looked at the calligraphy and painting in his hand again, and he felt that this might be the reason why Ling Zhuzi didn't take it in the first place!
"Are you really all right?"

"It's okay." Su Yan shook his head, and saw that the black energy rushing towards Lingmeng had dissipated under the burning of Yanyang's sacred fire, so he took the calligraphy and painting, walked to the bed and sat down, saying: "In this calligraphy and painting, there is a hidden danger." The terrifying evil power should be the reason why Ling Zhuzi didn't take it away back then. At the same time, I also wondered that this kind of evil power, with Ling Zhuzi's cultivation base, might be hard to resist. When he found that the calligraphy and painting were dangerous I'm afraid it's too late, but he's safe and sound..."
Lingmeng was startled, and then said: "Could it be that Ling Zhuzi didn't take this calligraphy and painting for other reasons, and the evil power in the calligraphy and painting was contaminated after that incident?"

"It's almost impossible." Su Yan shook his head, and then explained: "I studied this calligraphy and painting just now, and the spirit pattern in it has no trace of erosion, which means that those evil forces should have existed when the calligraphy and painting came out. But here comes the question again, how did Ling Zhuzi bring back the calligraphy and painting, when he got the calligraphy and painting, why didn't the evil power inside corrode his body and soul?"

"Junior brother, I have a vague feeling that this matter is not that simple. What secrets are hidden in the incident back then, even the head master and the priests are unwilling to mention it. If we continue to investigate, it will be very difficult. You might get burned, so let's just give up."
"Senior Sister, you know my character. I never give up halfway." Su Yan smiled and shook his head. Just as Lingmeng was about to speak, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the broken window and said: "Besides, we can't give up even if we want to."
"Why? You move to the outer courtyard and live in the room arranged by the stewards with your senior sisters now, and don't step into the inner courtyard in the future. Elder You should not know that you are not living in the place he arranged, as long as you worship Elder Mo Or the Headmaster leaves the customs..."
"Shua!"
Before Lingmeng finished speaking, a black shadow passed by the window, her face turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Junior brother, did you see anything?"

"I said, it's too late to give up, the one who should come has already come to you. Sister, stay on the bed, no matter what happens, don't leave this circle!" Su Yan ordered, then stood up, looking indifferently looking out the window.

"Tap", "Tap", "Tap"... The sound of heavy footsteps came from the courtyard, as if someone was shuffling, but the pace was very rhythmic.At the same time, the wind outside was blowing more violently, and there was a "woo hoo" sound like a ghost crying.

"Who the hell are you? Why don't you show up directly? Is it meaningful to use these methods?" Su Yanping looked out the window, his eyes were indifferent, and there was no trace of fear on his calm face: "It doesn't matter where you are from, but you should I know, you can't do anything to me!"

There was no sound to respond to Su Yan, only the sound of dark wind blowing and strange footsteps echoed in the silent night among the woods in the inner courtyard.

"Senior sister, stay here and don't move, I'll go out and have a look!"

"Brother, be careful!"

Su Yan walked out of the room, closed the door behind his back, and scanned the dark woods vigilantly, his pupils were shining golden, like two lights fixed in the night sky.

The trees swayed in the dark, and the wind was blowing, freezing cold to the bone.

Su Yan felt that something was approaching him, but he couldn't see anything.

"Tap", "Tap", "Tap"... The sound of slow and rhythmic footsteps came again, and Su Yan suddenly stared at a certain place in the forest, and the golden light in his eyes instantly blazed.

His pupils shrank sharply, and a figure in ancient costumes appeared in sight.

It was a body covered in dark black blood, walking slowly from the forest with heavy steps.

The weirdest thing is that there is no head on his neck, and the fractures on his neck are uneven, as if his head had been twisted off by life.A black iron rod about half a meter long was inserted into the neck, and a pale head was nailed to the top of the iron rod. The hair was disheveled, the eyes were staring, and the ears, nose, and mouth were clotted with blood.

Su Yan felt a chill in his heart, and felt a little horrified for no reason. This kind of scene is too scary!

"Corpse puppet?" Su Yan took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in his heart, and looked indifferently at the strange corpse approaching: "Could it be that you were responsible for what happened here more than a hundred years ago?"

"My head... where is my head...give me back my head..."
A horrifying voice came from the mouth of the strange corpse, talking to itself while continuing to walk towards Su Yan.

Su Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and spread out his palms, a ball of golden sun flames was burning in his palms, the true energy in his body quickly condensed, and he was always ready to launch a decisive blow!
"My head... where is my head...give me back my head..."
The ghostly corpse repeated the same words, the pair of round eyes with protruding eye sockets were very scary, and there was blood oozing out, dripping down the cheeks.

"It's already like this, it's impossible for you to still retain consciousness, it seems that someone is controlling you behind!" Su Yan sneered in his heart, glanced around, and said coldly: "Who is behind the scenes, come out!"

"Shua!"
Just as he finished speaking, the strange corpse suddenly disappeared, and it just disappeared out of thin air in front of him, as if it had never appeared before.

"Brother..."
"My head... where is my head...give me back my head..."
Just when Su Yan was surprised, Lingmeng's shout and the ghostly corpse's voice came from the room at the same time.This made him startled, he suddenly turned around and kicked open the door with a "bang", and rushed in instantly.

The ghostly corpse was standing in front of the bed, staring at Lingmeng with bleeding eyes, repeating that sentence in his mouth.On the other hand, Lingmeng's face was pale. Although she tried her best to control her emotions, her delicate body couldn't help trembling.
