"The spiritual power of the source crystal is not lost, but there is a mysterious existence that is secretly sucking its spiritual power." Ye Chen said slowly, "And the spiritual power of the source crystal that was sucked away gathered towards the north."
"Who is causing trouble?" Princess Yinyue's tone turned colder.
"You know this land better than I do, so you know what's weird about the northern territory."
"Yes." Princess Yinyue gave the answer without thinking, and her tone was very sure, "At the border of Yandi today, there is a mountain range. Its name is Ghost Mountain. It is very strange. On a full moon night, The flowers, plants and trees in the surrounding mountains and forests will wither. When the pre-Qin Dynasty was still there, I went to have a look and found that its terrain was mysterious and even dark, and it was often haunted by ghosts."
"You're talking about the city of ghost prison." Ye Chen asked.
"The City of Ghost Prison is just a legend. No one knows whether it really exists." Princess Yinyue whispered, "The master once warned me not to step into it rashly. Your Majesty also ordered The order lists the Ghost Mountain as a forbidden area, and any march must be detoured. This is a royal secret, and few outsiders know it. For thousands of years, there are not a few people who have strayed into it. No matter ordinary people or martial arts masters, they have never seen it. Come out alone."
"From what you said, the source crystal's spiritual power is probably sucked, and it's probably inseparable from the ghost prison city."
"I'll go take a look right away." Princess Yinyue said as she was about to leave.
"It's too late." Ye Chen stopped him and looked at the floating source crystal, "The border of Yan Land is at least a thousand miles away from here. Before you get to Ghost Prison City, the source crystal will dry up."
"Then... what should be done."
"Seal the ancient tomb and isolate it from the outside world." Ye Chen said immediately.
As he said that, he jumped up on a stone pillar, used his inner strength to turn into sword energy, and drew lines on the surrounding tomb walls. As he drew, he told Princess Yue, "According to the lines I drew, I will give you Spiritual power."
Princess Yin Yue hurriedly moved her hands, pulling the source crystal, absorbing the spiritual power, and blended it into the lines.
The two of them cooperated and had a tacit understanding. The surrounding tomb walls were full of patterns. After being given spiritual power, they turned into complicated patterns, as vivid as life and running on their own.
Ye Chen's method was indeed effective. Although the source crystal's spiritual power was still being absorbed, its speed was several times slower.
Quietly, two days passed.
The two of them were still busy, not daring to stop at all. They carved a lot of formation patterns and spread them all over every corner of the main tomb.
This is not over yet, Ye Chen moved the stone pillars as a base to support the formation. He is a mortal and has no magic power, so it is difficult to set up a mysterious formation. Even this elementary formation is quite troublesome.
Fortunately, Imperial Concubine Yin Yue came to help, and the two of them were indispensable.
At some point, Ye Chen stopped. His face was a little pale and he was sweating profusely.
Princess Yin Yue was not much better, her soul power was much weaker due to the formation.
The two people's efforts were not in vain. The speed at which spiritual power was being absorbed had dropped to the lowest point. Calculating the time, it was easy to see that if they were absorbed like this, they could last for half a year.
"I'm going to the Ghost Prison City." Princess Yinyue whispered, and was about to go out again, her expression as cold as frost, "I want to see who is causing trouble."
"You can't go out." Ye Chen stopped him for the second time, "You need to be in charge of the formation in the tomb. That mysterious existence can secretly absorb the spiritual power of the source crystal from thousands of miles away, which proves its power. In your state , may not be its opponent.”
"Senior, if this consumption continues, the source crystal will be sucked dry sooner or later." Princess Yinyue said worriedly.
"You can rest assured here, I'll go to the Ghost Prison City."
"You are a mortal, and if you step in without thinking, you will be in trouble."
"Don't underestimate mortals." Ye Chen smiled, "If a mortal body has been cultivated to the peak, it can also reach the gods."
Princess Yinyue still wanted to say something, but Ye Chen had already turned around and left.
After leaving the main tomb, Ye Chen closed the tomb door and used ordinary methods to place the Five Elements method on the door. Although it was insignificant, it could bless the formation in the tomb.
After doing this, he went straight out of the tomb. What he said before was not to belittle himself. With his current skill, he was already at the pinnacle of the mortal world. If he faced Princess Yin Yue, he would have a 50% chance of winning. Even if he met her, A true Qi Condensation Realm monk is also capable of fighting.
After leaving the ancient tomb, it was already approaching dawn.
Ye Chen used Qinggong and rushed to Zhuxian Town like the wind. He had to bring all the necessary equipment to deal with the evil spirits. Since it is the most sinister place, it would be strange if it was not haunted by ghosts.
At this moment, Zhuxian Town has ushered in the first ray of light.
Before it gets bright, I hear the crackling sound of firecrackers.
Today is Mr. Yang Ge’s happy day.
Lao Yang's mansion was already crowded with people, most of whom came to pay their respects. The well-known people in Zhuxian Town were all invited. There were also many martial arts people who came uninvited, more or less, with nothing to say. To put it nicely, they are here to enjoy themselves; to put it worse, they are here to make a living.
Mr. Yang Ge didn't care about this. He was a guest, so it was just a lively and lively place.
"congratulations."
"Please come inside and have a few more drinks."
In front of the mansion, Lao Yang was wearing a bright red groom's clothes. He was very high-spirited. At first glance, he looked like a man.
For most of my life, I have been in today’s scene.
"You said, it doesn't make sense for me to go there empty-handed and without any gifts." At one end of the street, Shangguan Jiu touched his chin and looked at Yang Xuan more than once.
"I've been nagging you hundreds of times all the way, but you should go buy it! It's useless." Yang Xuan cursed, his ears buzzing, "You are ranked second in the martial arts world? Do you want to save face?"
"I didn't bring any money." Shangguan Jiu coughed dryly.
"To be honest, you are good at everything, but you are too stingy." Yang Xuan said meaningfully.
"I don't like hearing what you say."
"Then tell me, when we went to a restaurant to drink, how many times did you pay for the drinks?" Yang Xuan smiled and looked at Shangguan Jiu, "You never bring any money with you. This problem of yours must be inherited from your ancestors!"
Hey, Shangguan Jiu didn't take it seriously. He walked through a noisy street and didn't buy anything. Yang Xuan looked at him and sighed all the way, you two-faced man, you really don't want to lose face!
While they were talking, the two of them had arrived in front of the mansion.
"Rare visitor, rare visitor! Hurry, please come inside." Mr. Yang Ge smiled. He was the third master in the martial arts world. With such status, he is here. What a great honor it is.
"It's easy to say, come on, happy wedding." Before Yang Xuan could say anything, Shangguan Jiu came up to him. He also pulled the gift in Yang Xuan's hand and handed it to Mr. Yang Ge consciously. After going back and forth, the congratulatory gift became It was a gift from him, and Yang Xuan, the man who had done the trick, came empty-handed. He was not bragging. There was no sense of disobedience in his actions.
Yang Xuan's big face turned completely black in an instant. He still looked up to Shangguan Jiu's integrity. This guy has a shameless temperament all over his body, from the inside out, from his soul. He deserves you. You are the second child, and with your character, why didn't you get kicked to death
"This is..." Mr. Yang Ge looked at Shangguan Jiu and then at Yang Xuan.
"Shangguan Laoji."
"This name is... easy to understand." Mr. Yang Ge laughed dryly, then he averted his eyes and looked in the direction behind them, "The disciple of Senior Yinshan Taoist is not here?"
"What, the disciple of the old dog from Yinshan is here too?" Yang Xuan became more energetic after hearing this.
"Yinshan... old dog?" Mr. Yang Ge was stunned.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, keep busy with your business." Shangguan Jiu smiled, dragging Yang Xuan in.
Behind him, Mr. Yang Ge looked confused.
The guests who came to congratulate him gradually became fewer and fewer, and it was not until the last guest was welcomed in that Mr. Yang Ge returned to the mansion.
The atmosphere in the mansion was booming, and there were no less than hundreds of tables.
In the corner, there was a table between Shangguan Yu and Yang Xuan. In the troubled times, the swordsman was very conscious and did not need to be polite. He swept away most of the wine on the table.
Yang Xuan, on the other hand, was no longer so carefree. His eyes scanned the people present in circles, as if he was looking for someone. Who was he looking for? Looking for a disciple of the Yinshan Taoist.
Previously, he went to find Yinshan Old Taoist to settle accounts, but he couldn't find him. If he saw Yinshan Old Taoist disciple today, how could he let him go
But the embarrassing thing is that he looked over and over again, but he didn't know which one it was.
I don't know if he would have flipped the table over on the spot if he knew that the Yinshan Taoist disciple Yang Ge mentioned... was Ye Chen.
"The bride has arrived." Suddenly, a loud shout sounded, causing everyone present to look in one direction.
But over there, Xia Lan in wedding clothes, supported by two maids, came into view.
Women in the world are the most beautiful when they get married, and Xia Lan is the best proof. There are many women present, but in front of her, their elegance has dimmed. Although she is not young anymore, her charm is still there, and her face is peerless. , everyone present looked a little dazed.
"That's Xia Lan." Yang Xuanyao pointed.
Shangguan Jiu took a sip of wine and looked along. When he saw Xia Lan's cheek, he spit out a sip of wine and sprayed it all over Yang Xuan's face.
"You really want to fight!" Yang Xuan's face turned dark again.
Shangguan Jiu ignored him and just stared at Xia Lan. Everyone was passing by. He was still looking with his head tilted and his whole body tilted. "My mother is a good boy. I am not mistaken!"
"What, you know him?" Yang Xuan was stunned.
"I had the honor to meet him half a year ago. He has a great background, the palace master who invites the moon palace master."
"this... .."
On the other side, Mr. Yang Ge came forward and took Xia Lan's hand. He looked at it in a daze, as if he was in a dream. He smiled so silly that he even forgot to leave, so he just put the pestle away.
"Can you hurry up?" Xia Lan whispered angrily. Her beautiful cheeks were full of red clouds, which was really charming.
Yang Ge Laogan laughed and hurriedly led Xia Lan forward.
The master of ceremonies was an old man with a relatively strong body. When he saw Mr. Yang Ge and Xia Lan taking their respective positions, he held his breath and tried to shout the next sentence as loudly as possible.
However, before he could open his mouth, a faint laughter came from outside the house, "It's so lively today, I wonder if I could ask for a wedding drink."
After hearing this, all the guests present looked towards the door.
Mr. Yang Ge frowned, he could tell that the speaker was very powerful, and if he listened to his tone, it sounded strange, and he must be evil.
Xia Lan also frowned. From those words, she could tell who it was. It was not an old friend, but an enemy. To be more precise, it was someone from the Xuanming Sect. On that day, she was plotted against by the Xuanming Sect and ended up living in Zhuxian Town. , was saved by Mr. Yang Ge, and that’s how we got married today.
