"You are now in a 'fire eye'. I have only temporarily cast a formation to block the detection of outsiders. Brother Bro, don't you intend to answer some of Jiang's doubts?" Li Yan looked at Bro, who was still weak after slowly sitting up.
Bro first looked around, feeling the waves of heat coming from his body and the scorching heat in the air, and then he leaned his body against the bamboo basket with difficulty. As soon as his body touched the bamboo basket, the familiar feeling immediately spread throughout his body, instantly making him feel a little safer.
"Hehe, I was careless this time. I will explain to Brother Jiang later. But this is the 'Eye of Fire', why is the temperature not high enough to melt me? Could it be the formation..."
In just a short period of time since Bro woke up, he changed the way he addressed him, from "Fellow Daoist Jiang" to "Brother" and then to "Brother Jiang", seeming to be becoming more and more familiar.
He looked around and found that he was not surrounded by Li Yan's spiritual power, so he asked this question first.
Bro knew that the temperature inside this "Fire Palace" could not be blocked for a long time by spiritual power and so-called formations. For a cultivator like him who had reached the late stage of foundation building, according to the young master, without the protection of special water-based magic weapons, it was already the limit for him to last for less than half an incense stick.
Li Yan heard Bro's name change several times and admired Bro's judgment of the situation. His mind was absolutely first-class. Although Bro was not sealed, Zhulou was by his side, so he understood everything.
At the same time, Bro also thought that the man in front of him could actually save him from the joint pursuit of three people, and he did not seem to be injured at all, which made him more convinced of his master's previous judgment.
Judging from Bro's current condition, he himself thought that Li Yan could crush him to death with just one finger.
Li Yan was of course aware of Bro's doubts. Although the temperature was still very high where they were, it was barely bearable without using spiritual power.
"Just as Brother Bro guessed, this is due to the formation. My formation happens to have some water attributes, but it still can't do better, so I set up a small water formation inside the formation. With two layers of formations, I can barely achieve this."
Li Yan said calmly that they were indeed in another small formation within the "Big Dragon Elephant Formation", but the truth was not as Li Yan said. The real reason was that he was afraid that Bro would see the small purple dragon elephant devouring the high temperature outside the small formation, so he set up another small formation to isolate everything outside the small formation.
However, if there was no little purple dragon elephant outside to absorb the high temperature, his small formation would not be of much use.
Bro nodded, but in his heart he felt that Li Yan's formation was extremely powerful. Although he had never been here, the scholar in green described in detail for him all the places that needed attention on the first and second floors of the Beiming Demon Suppression Tower.
So how could he know the twists and turns in Li Yan's mind? After feeling the temperature here and confirming that he would not cause greater harm to him without the protection of magic weapon for the time being, he felt a lot more relieved.
Bro looked at Li Yan with a smile on his face. Although Li Yan's expression was still calm, Bro knew that the other party was getting impatient.
It stands to reason that in the world of immortal cultivation, it is extremely rude for people to pry into other people's secrets, but Bro's life was saved by someone else. Could it be that Li Yan doesn't even know how Bro had offended dozens of cultivators and why they joined forces to hunt him down
Therefore, Bro did not use his spiritual sense to try to explore outside the formation to see how many monks had come outside. That might cause Li Yan's dissatisfaction, but he simply said.
"It was my fault this time. Two days ago, I was outside a ruined palace..."
Half an incense stick later, Bro chuckled twice and stopped talking. Then, after taking a few deep breaths, he reached out and gently patted the bamboo basket. A silver light rose from the mouth of the bamboo basket, and then turned into a page of silver paper in front of Li Yan, floating quietly.
Li Yan had been listening quietly to Bro's narration, with his facial expression changing slightly. When Bro talked about how he snatched food from the mouths of more than twenty monks, Li Yan showed a strange look on his face, but he did not interrupt to ask questions.
When Bro took out the silver paper without hesitation in front of him, he was also stunned. First of all, he didn't expect Bro to be so single. However, he didn't look at the silver paper first, but glanced at the bamboo basket first. Although he had guessed it before, he had never actually detected it.
"It really has a storage space. This is a very unique storage magic weapon." After thinking about it, Li Yan set his eyes on the page of silver paper, but he did not take it in his hand immediately. Instead, he looked at Bro again.
"Brother Bro, your courage is really... really... great." After listening to Bro's words, Li Yan felt that this person did things based solely on his own subjective ideas, and did whatever he thought of. You could say that he was ignorant, but he had the confidence to do so with so many magic weapons protecting him. In the end, he didn't know how to "praise" the other party. He could only utter a few words and didn't know how to start again.
But Li Yan immediately changed the subject and said, "Fellow Daoist, do you know what this silver paper is used for? You just took it out like this." Bro blinked his eyes, shook his head and sighed, "There are a total of ten pieces of this silver paper. This is one of the last two that appeared, but I haven't had the chance to investigate it yet, and I don't know what kind of magic weapon it is. I just think that everyone is fighting for it, so naturally I have to get it first."
After a pause, Bro continued, "Some time ago, I also heard that silver paper appeared in this palace, but the person who got it was very tight-lipped and did not leak any information."
Well, Li Yan finally understood this Bro. He just liked to be lively. To put it bluntly, he was the kind of person who relied on his magical weapons that the cultivators of the same level could not resist. He was the kind of person who always looked for trouble.
If it had been Li Yan at that time, he would never have taken action in front of dozens of cultivators. Even if he wanted the treasure, he would have watched whoever the treasure fell into and then waited for an opportunity to secretly attack that person alone. He would not have been as reckless as Bro.
"I am taking it out now because I don't care what it is. Daoist friend saved my life, so of course I need something tangible as a thank you gift. The magic weapons on me have all been sworn in by blood, and I am also very good at using them. If I really give it to Daoist friend, I still can't bear to part with it. This incident was caused by this thing. Anyway, I haven't seen it, and I don't feel any burden in my heart, so I will give it to Daoist friend.
Moreover, since it is something that everyone is fighting for, I think it must be good. This treasure is destined to be with you."
Li Yan didn't expect Bro to say these words in the end. For a moment, he felt that this man was really very interesting and had a strong character. He saved Bro actually because he wanted the blue-shirted scholar to owe him a favor. The blue-shirted scholar's strength made him shudder with fear. If he could make this man owe him a favor in this Beiming Demon Suppression Tower, it would certainly be a great thing.
Li Yan himself didn't know how long he would stay here. Of course, having a powerful friend was countless times better than having such an enemy. Otherwise, he could only pray not to meet the other party.
Of course, all of this is based on the assumption that the other person has good character. Otherwise, like some old monsters with capricious personalities, no matter how hard you try to please them, they may eventually turn around and take your life.
After two encounters with the blue-robed scholar, Li Yan could sense that he was not an erratic person, so he decided to save Bro.
Bro's behavior at this time also changed Li Yan's impression of him. Bro had the arrogance of a "darling of the palm", but he was very straightforward in his heart. Of course, this kind of "straightforwardness" was limited, but at least he was grateful and that was enough.
"Oh, Brother Bro, why don't you take a look at what kind of magic weapon this page of silver paper is? Maybe it will surpass all your magic weapons." Li Yan said to Bro with a smile.
"Hey, hey, hey, Brother Jiang, stop it. Stop it. I'm very curious. You can't tempt me like this. I really can't help but want to see it. You should stop it quickly or go to the side and watch it.
After reading it, don’t tell me its use, and don’t show any satisfaction or surprise. This is my condition. That’s it, um… that’s it!”
After hearing what Li Yan said, Bro, who was half leaning on the bamboo basket, immediately sat up straight, a bitter look on his face, and spoke in a pleading tone, but he couldn't help but glance at the page of silver paper again, and finally turned his head away with difficulty.
In fact, he is now extremely curious about Li Yan. Could this person have more magic weapons than himself? He has just sensed the bamboo basket with his spiritual sense, and there are quite a few things inside. Faced with so many magic weapons, this cultivator named Jiang doesn't seem to be tempted at all.
How could he know? If he really died, maybe Li Yan would dare to take his magic weapon. Whether he dared to use it was another matter. The scholar in green was too powerful. As for his attitude towards Bro, Li Yan was not blind. He could see that he was quite doting on him. With such a degree of doting, Li Yan had no doubt that the scholar in green had left something like a tracking mark on Bro. How could he dare to use Bro's magic weapon at will
So naturally, Li Yan would not think of killing Bro directly to get the treasure.
Li Yan's action really saved his life. Just when Bro's life breath was almost gone, a ghostly green figure came to the outside of the Red Maple Pond.
"It should be the result of the attack by at least two people, Bro's life was in danger. One of them finally seriously injured Bro, and he was a physical cultivator. Could he be a monk from the Pure Land Sect?" The green figure stood by the Red Maple Pond with a very solemn expression, talking to himself.
"I came here in a hurry, but now his life fire is strong again. Could it be that Bro has recovered on his own after escaping?"
After the green figure hesitated for a moment, he could only vaguely sense something through the mark left on Bro's body. The palace under the Red Maple Pond was too isolated. Even if he left a spiritual mark on Bro's body, he could not really penetrate the palace. He could only sense something when the attack came into contact with Bro's body. After a long time, the green figure flashed and disappeared from the Red Maple Pond again.
This vague feeling, even if only a slight one, the blue figure could come from some distant place, and its terrifying strength far exceeded the imagination of the monks who had seen him before.
