Chapter 1998 Seven-Leaf Blood Lotus and Ancient Beast

"Fellow Daoist Chang, are you going to enter Storm Valley on behalf of Tie?"

Blind Tie was slightly startled when he heard the words coming from behind him, and turned to face Ye Chunyang and asked.

Wu Lingzi, Yan Qiuxue, and Master Buyi also showed surprised expressions. This "Chang Mo" has always been very low-key, and there is no sense of existence among the five of them, so that everyone almost ignored his existence, but no one expected that this "Chang Mo" would take the initiative to ask to be used as bait to go down to Storm Valley?

"Fellow Daoist Chang, are you sure you want to go down?" Blind Tie asked again.

"Of course." Ye Chunyang said.

Blind Tie frowned, "Fellow Daoist, you know that once you go down to Storm Valley, you may not be able to come back safely."

"I know." Ye Chunyang nodded.

Everyone's eyes became strange. You know, the situation in Storm Valley is dangerous. No one was willing to go down before. It's hard to imagine that someone would go to die.

Blind Tie faced Ye Chunyang, and his gray eyes did not reveal a trace of emotion, but at this time his face was obviously a little confused.

"Who wants to go down and lure out the ancient beast? Please make a decision quickly. The beast has a very keen sense. If we delay here for too long, it may notice us. If we are restrained by it, the situation will be difficult to control." Wu Lingzi looked at the few people and said lightly.

Several people frowned.

Ye Chunyang looked at Wu Lingzi and said, "Fellow Daoist Wu Lingzi, how much do you know about the information below the Storm Valley and the ancient beast? Please tell me everything, so that I can act conveniently after entering the valley."

Wu Lingzi pondered for a moment, took out a jade slip from his sleeve and threw it to Ye Chunyang, saying, "All the information is in it. To save time, Fellow Daoist Chang can check this jade slip while entering the valley."

"Okay."

Ye Chunyang nodded, without saying anything more. After putting away the jade slip, a flash of spiritual light flashed on his body, and he flew towards the Storm Valley.

Soon, his figure turned into a green light that tore through the sand and dust. After another flash, he completely disappeared from the sight of Wu Lingzi and others.

Tie Xiazi faced the direction where Ye Chunyang disappeared. He could not see with his eyes, but his heart was extremely bright. At this time, he could not help but sigh and said, "I didn't expect that this Taoist friend Chang, who usually doesn't talk much, is still a man of character."

Yan Qiuxue and Master Buyi had different expressions, but neither of them said anything.

Wu Lingzi stood there and watched for a while, waved his hand and said, "Since Taoist friend Chang has already led out the ancient beast for us, we don't have to waste time here. Next, please help me cast a spell and set up the Great Xumi Nine Palaces Positive and Negative Immortal Array. As long as the ancient beast appears, we will immediately trap it in the array!"

"Okay, Taoist friend Wu Lingzi, just tell me how to cast the array, and the three of us will cooperate with you." Master Buyi put his hands together and said with a kind smile.

Wu Lingzi nodded slightly, then raised his hand and shook it, a stream of light flashed out from his sleeve, and turned into several formation flags that fell in front of the three people.

At the same time, the formation flag showed the mysterious and complex Great Xumi Nine Palaces Positive and Negative Immortal Formation diagram, and then Wu Lingzi's voice sounded.

"Three Taoist friends, first comprehend the mysteries of the formation diagrams on these formation flags, and then stand and cast spells according to the directions and methods indicated by the formation diagrams. After all your magic power is gathered, I will activate the formation eye, and then the formation will be completed."

The three of them took a look at the formation diagrams shown on the formation flags. Although the Great Xumi Nine Palaces Positive and Negative Immortal Formation contained endless mysteries that ordinary people could not comprehend, Wu Lingzi's was only a copy of the pseudo-immortal formation after all. With the cultivation and experience of several people, they could still quickly comprehend it.

So after a discussion, they each held the formation flags and dispersed.

Soon, the Storm Valley became calm, and the figures of several people disappeared. However, there seemed to be some obscure fluctuations coming from various places, but under the deliberate suppression and the cover of sand and dust, they soon disappeared without a trace.

While Wu Lingzi and the other four were waiting outside the valley, Ye Chunyang, who had entered the Storm Valley, was in a bad situation.

Not long after flying in the air, he felt a strong natural suppression force spreading from the sky, making his movement become abnormally slow.

The violent wind and sand were whistling beside his ears, as if to tear his body apart. The further he went, the more his mana was suppressed.

Feeling the abnormality around him, Ye Chunyang immediately restrained his breath and descended to a low altitude.

These natural suppression forces are aimed at high-altitude flight and void teleportation. It is safer to restrain mana and travel at low altitude.

Sure enough, after his body lowered, he clearly felt that the pressure around him was decreasing, and the flow of mana in his body became much smoother.

However, the environment in the Storm Valley was still bad, almost like a sky full of wind and sand, and it was difficult to see the situation ahead clearly.

Moreover, due to the huge amount of sand and dust, the divine consciousness could not be released, and could only barely sense the surrounding area within a few miles.

In this way, Ye Chunyang's trip was greatly hindered.

While flying slowly, he took out the jade slip that Wu Lingzi had given him earlier, and immersed his divine consciousness in it to investigate.

After a moment, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and then he looked down at the ground below, frowning slightly.

From the information recorded in the jade slip, the ancient beast was actually hidden deep underground, and this beast did not have any fixed cave, and its figure could appear anywhere.

This was not good news for Ye Chunyang. The situation in the valley was not good to begin with. If he could not find the ancient beast in a short time and lead it out, his situation would become extremely dangerous.

However, Wu Lingzi's jade slip clearly stated that the ancient beast's last entrenched location was in a weathered small stone mountain ten miles south of the valley, and that the beast did not know how to hide its aura, so its presence could be sensed as long as it was close.

However, that weathered small stone mountain was the strongest sandstorm in the entire Storm Valley.

After carefully considering the information in the jade slip, Ye Chunyang came to the conclusion that the ancient beast had no clear location, but it was possible that it appeared in that weathered small stone mountain.

In addition, Wu Lingzi also explained an important message in the jade slip that the sandstorm in the Storm Valley was irregular, but every three hours, the storm at the bottom of the valley would be weaker than that above, and even if he was lucky, the storm would stop within a few feet of the ground.

At that time, it would be his best opportunity.

But the stillness was not long, only lasting about half an incense stick. Once the time was up, the sandstorm would immediately resume, and it would be several times stronger than before. At that time, even a cultivator in the late stage of returning to the void would not be able to come out alive.

Therefore, if Ye Chunyang could not find the ancient beast and lead it out of the valley within this half an incense stick, his final fate would probably be to die here.

"Half an incense stick is not a long time..." Ye Chunyang felt a little gloomy.

If he could directly determine the location of the ancient beast, half an incense stick would be enough for him, but it would be a bit tricky to search without a clue without determining its location.

He glanced around and continued to release his spiritual sense.

When he was outside the valley before, he vaguely felt the breath of the Seven-Leaf Blood Lotus, but because the sandstorm was too strong, he could not determine where the spiritual medicine was for a while, so he could only explore it again.

But soon he found that the spiritual sense he released was disturbed by the sandstorm, and his perception of everything became blurred.

"This is not a solution. It will not benefit me except that my mana and divine consciousness will be consumed at the same time."

Ye Chunyang pondered for a while and simply stayed where he was. Except for the protective magic shield, all the mana was restrained to save consumption.

He was ready to wait for the opportunity when the sandstorm weakened after three hours. In that way, he could clearly detect the location of the seven-leaf blood lotus. If he was lucky, he might be able to find the location of the ancient beast in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, he immediately closed his eyes and waited silently.

Although the sandstorm around was raging wildly, he was now a great cultivator and his skills were improving day by day, so he was not affected too much.

Time passed bit by bit, and gradually, Ye Chunyang felt that the sandstorm in the valley was gradually weakening.

It seemed that the opportunity for the storm to stop was coming.

Ye Chunyang's heart moved, and he immediately removed the protective magic shield, urged all his mana to the limit, and dived down to the ground like an arrow from a string.

When he landed, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and the sandstorm that was raging just a moment ago quietly dissipated. Taking this opportunity, Ye Chunyang immediately released his divine consciousness.

The opportunity for the sandstorm to stop was only about half an incense stick, leaving him with little time!

This time, his perception was extremely smooth, and there was no more obstruction.

Soon, Ye Chunyang was surprised to find that a pure and unusual spiritual medicine smell was fed back from a certain direction. Without any pause, he immediately mobilized the power of the void and teleported away.

The next moment, Ye Chunyang appeared directly in a weathered stone.

At this time, there was a palm-sized blood lotus in this pile of weathered stones. The petals were like seven fingers of a person, revealing clear bone veins.

It was a seven-leaf blood lotus!

Ye Chunyang was delighted and immediately picked the lotus and put it into the Qiankun bag. But then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Judging from the weathered rocks around, this place looks very much like the weathered rock land mentioned in Wu Lingzi's jade slip. Could it be that this is the place where the ancient beast last appeared?

Ye Chunyang frowned in his heart. How could there be such a coincidence that the seven-leaf blood lotus actually grew in a place adjacent to the ancient beast?

Just when Ye Chunyang was thinking this, he suddenly caught something in his consciousness and his face suddenly changed!

"Bang!"

A low explosion suddenly came from the ground, right where Ye Chunyang was standing!

Without thinking, the power of the void on his body surged, and with the afterimage flashing, he appeared in mid-air. At the same time, the ground where he was originally standing exploded wildly, and a huge phantom emerged from it!
