【Chapter 161】Red Object
【Chapter 161】Red Object
Under the gaze of Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan, Nangong Chenyu placed the jade token on the dragon pattern on the cylindrical platform.
Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, the cylindrical platform seemed to have turned into a magnet, and his hand turned into iron. The cylindrical table held his hand tightly, not allowing him to withdraw it.
Then he felt a slight tingling in his fingers. It was obvious that he was pierced by something, and then a suction force sucked the blood out of his body through his fingers.
This change happened within a breath, so fast that even Nangong Chenyu couldn't stop it.
The next moment, the dragon pattern on the cylindrical platform seemed to be activated and emitted a green light.
The jade token turned into powder in an instant.
From the perspective of Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan, after Nangong Chenyu placed the jade token on the cylindrical platform, a dazzling green light emanated from the center of the cylindrical platform.
As for what happened in that instant, even though the grandfather and grandson didn't blink, they didn't see it.
At the same time, the moment the green light appeared, Nangong Chenyu found that his hands had regained their freedom. He successfully withdrew his hand and shook it, as if trying to shake off some invisible force.
Seeing his movements, Ye Yisheng asked in confusion: "What's wrong with your hand?"
"It's okay. I don't know what pricked me when I put the jade token down just now, and a few drops of blood came out." Nangong Chenyu did not hide it. This situation is almost a normal phenomenon.
Ye Yisheng nodded to show that he understood.
After three full minutes, the green light on the cylindrical platform slowly disappeared.
Three pairs of eyes stared at the cylindrical platform without blinking, waiting for the legendary treasure to appear.
The "click, click, click" sound is particularly clear.
The legendary treasure did not appear on the cylindrical platform, but the originally solid cylindrical platform suddenly became vague.
The three of them clearly saw a red object the size of an adult's thumb inside the cylindrical platform, which looked somewhat like a ruby.
"Could that thing be the legendary treasure?" Ye Yisheng pointed at the red object and said that he had never seen such a treasure before. "It doesn't look like one to me!"
Ye Chenyuan didn't know whether it was a treasure or not, he just said: "Treasures come in myriad forms."
Ye Yisheng nodded to show that he understood.
After watching for a while, seeing that the red object in the cylindrical platform showed no signs of moving, Ye Yisheng couldn't help but ask: "How do we get it out?"
Ye Chenyuan turned his head to glance at Nangong Chenyu and saw that Nangong Chenyu was staring at the cylindrical platform with a thoughtful look on his face. He thought that the seal was broken by Ye Yisheng's blood, so he said to Ye Yisheng: "Try telekinesis."
"good."
Ye Yisheng immediately gathered spiritual energy in his hands and performed the telekinesis technique. Unfortunately, the imagined scene of the red object flying out of the cylindrical platform and then flying into his hands did not appear.
"Telekinesis doesn't work."
"You guys step back." Ye Chenyuan reminded the two.
The two retreated five meters away.
Fearing that the cylinder would explode and they would be accidentally injured, Ye Yishen condensed a layer of protective shield around the two of them.
Ye Chenyuan gathered his spiritual energy and raised his hand to launch an attack towards the cylindrical platform.
Under normal circumstances, an attack from the Spirit Transformation Stage could shatter the cylindrical platform into pieces.
But at this moment, Ye Chenyuan launched an attack on the cylindrical platform, and the cylindrical platform just flashed for a moment and then returned to calm.
Ye Yisheng was worried about being accidentally injured: "..."
After thinking about it, Ye Chenyuan raised his hand to touch the cylindrical platform. However, as soon as his hand touched the cylindrical platform, it was bounced away. Turning around, he waved to Nangong Chenyu and the other person.
Ye Yishen pulled Nangong Chenyu to the front of the cylindrical platform.
Ye Chenyuan immediately said to the two of them: "Put your hands on the cylindrical platform and see if they will bounce off."
Ye Yishen stretched out his hand towards the cylindrical platform. He was ready to have his hand bounced away just like Ye Chenyuan. Unexpectedly, when his hand touched the cylindrical table, it was not bounced away.
Nangong Chenyu didn't move at all, just stared at the red thing. At this moment, he felt that all the blood in his body was boiling.
Seeing him staring at the cylindrical platform in a daze, Ye Yisheng called out softly, "A Yu."
Nangong Chenyu came back to his senses and raised his hand hanging by his side. Just as his hand was about to touch the cylindrical table, he suddenly had a strange illusion that the red object in the cylindrical table should be his.
It seemed that as long as he reached out, he would be able to get it.
Suddenly, he withdrew his hand.
Under the puzzled gazes of Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan, he took out six space rings from his personal space and placed them in Ye Yishen's hands.
One space ring contained rare treasures suitable for Ye Yishen that he had collected from the treasury of the second ancestor Ye; one space ring contained a stone sculpture of a monster; and the rest of the space rings were filled with spirit stones.
Ye Yisheng was full of questions: "Why did you give me so many space rings?"
Nangong Chenyu didn't know if his sudden strange intuition was correct, so he could only say, "Take it first."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
Ye Chenyuan: “…” He felt that his existence was a bit redundant.
Ignoring the strange looks from the grandfather and grandson, Nangong Chenyu reached out to touch the cylindrical platform.
Just as he thought, after his hand touched the cylindrical table, his hand went straight through the table and successfully took the red object inside the table.
When he withdrew his hand, the cylindrical platform was no longer vague and became solid again.
At this moment, overwhelming pressure came towards the three of them.
Five people covered in black robes appeared at the door of the stone chamber.
Ye Chenyuan withstood the pressure, stretched out his hand to pull Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen behind him, and looked at the five people vigilantly.
"Who are you?"
The five of them took off the hats on their black robes at the same time.
Ye Chenyuan's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
"It's you."
"Grandfather, who are they?" Nangong Chenyu asked.
"There are two ancestors of the Qi family. I heard a long time ago that they failed to reach the Void Refinement Stage and had already fallen. I didn't expect that they are still alive and have already reached the Void Refinement Stage. It seems that the news of their fall was just fake news released by the Qi family."
Although Ye Chenyuan spoke quietly, the five members of the Qi family heard it clearly.
The Qi family is much stronger than the Ye family.
The Ye family has only one ancestor, Ye, who is in the Void Refinement Stage, and he just broke through not long ago. But the five people in front of him were all in the Void Refinement Stage, and the highest one was already in the late Void Refinement Stage. And maybe there are still people in the Qi family who are in the Nascent Soul stage, but they just haven't come here.
Among the five people, the ancestor of the Qi family who had the highest cultivation level did not even look at Ye Chenyuan, but instead his gaze fell on Nangong Chenyu.
"Are you Nangong Chenyu?"
"Why ask when you already know the answer?" Nangong Chenyu said bluntly, "If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just fart."
He was holding the red object in his hand and could not feel the pressure from the other party at all. Not only him, but also Ye Yisheng didn't feel any pressure at all when he grabbed Ye Yisheng's wrist.
Only Ye Chenyuan, who was standing in front of the two men, felt the pressure, and he was already sweating profusely.
"presumptuous!"
The ancestor of the Qi family increased the pressure.
Originally, he wanted to see Nangong Chenyu unable to bear the pressure and kneel down to beg for mercy.
But the fact is that Nangong Chenyu was fine, but Ye Chenyuan almost knelt down to him.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Nangong Chenyu raised the hand holding the red object and pressed it against Ye Chenyuan's back, preventing Ye Chenyuan from kneeling down.
The feeling of being overwhelmed by the pressure suddenly disappeared, Ye Chenyuan felt relieved, and a flash of surprise passed through his eyes.
The Qi family's ancestor was not blind, so he naturally saw that the three people were not affected by the pressure. He guessed that this situation was due to the treasure that Nangong Chenyu had just obtained.
"Nangong Chenyu, since you are a disciple of Yunjue Palace, I can spare your life as long as you hand over the treasure."
"You spared my life, but what about them?" As he said that, Nangong Chenyu looked at the other four ancestors of the Qi family.
The four of them glanced at him.
"A tiny golden elixir, not worthy of my attack."
"I listen to my elder brother."
"I never bully the weak."
"I only fight opponents of equal ability."
The implication is that the four will not attack him.
Nangong Chenyu glanced at Ye Yisheng and asked the Qi family ancestor: "He is also a disciple of Yunjue Palace, won't you spare his life?"
The ancestor of the Qi family frowned slightly, and looked back and forth between Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan's faces. Finally, he shook his head: "He is a member of the Ye family."
“But he is my Taoist partner, so by that count, I am also a member of the Ye family.” Nangong Chenyu said.
The Qi family ancestor's face immediately darkened: "Since you refuse to accept my toast and insist on drinking the penalty wine, don't blame me for being rude."
As he said that, he raised his hand and was about to attack Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu hurriedly said: "Old man, don't be angry. Anger is harmful to your health."
The Qi family ancestor, who was originally planning to stop, heard what Nangong Chenyu said and said angrily: "You are looking for death!"
At the same time, an attack came towards Nangong Chenyu.
Ye Chenyuan originally wanted to block the attack for Nangong Chenyu, but Nangong Chenyu took him and Ye Yisheng to hide behind the cylindrical platform.
It was obvious that the attack was quite powerful when it hit the cylindrical platform, but the platform just flashed for a moment.
The ancestor of the Qi family who launched the attack narrowed his eyes, and the eyes of the other four ancestors of the Qi family lit up. The cylindrical platform cannot be destroyed even by attacks from the Void Refinement Stage, which shows that it is not an ordinary object.
"Let's go in together, capture the three people first, and then destroy their cultivation."
Five people walked into the stone chamber one after another.
After the last person entered the stone chamber, the stone door closed with a bang.
The five people just looked back at the stone gate and didn't care.
At the same time, Nangong Chenyu said quickly and quietly: "Grandfather, Yisheng, I will take you out."
After saying that, he looked at Ye Yishen again: [Don’t worry about me, I may need to go into seclusion for a while. 】
Before Ye Chenyuan and Ye Yishen could say a word, a white light flashed and their figures disappeared from the spot.
The five people who had glanced at the stone gate turned around and just in time saw a flash of white light, and the two people from the Ye family disappeared.
The five people's target is the treasure in Nangong Chenyu's hand. Therefore, even though the five people saw Ye Yishen and Ye Chenyuan leave with their own eyes, they did not chase after them.
Five people rushed towards Nangong Chenyu together.
Nangong Chenyu placed one hand on the cylindrical platform, and a barrier suddenly appeared with the cylindrical platform as the center, covering the area within one meter around it.
The five people crashed into the barrier and were bounced two meters away before they could barely stabilize themselves.
Seeing Nangong Chenyu laughing unscrupulously inside the barrier, the ancestor of the Qi family's face became so gloomy that water could drip out. He immediately mobilized his spiritual energy, intending to attack the barrier with all his strength.
However, the next moment, he couldn't help but curse: "Damn it!"
Because he found that he couldn't use spiritual energy.
"Brother."
"Hurry up and try to use your spiritual energy to see if you can concentrate your attack."
"Oh." After trying it, the man replied, "I can clearly feel the spiritual energy in my Dantian, but I can't output it. What's going on?"
"So do we."
"Nangong Chenyu, what did you do to us?" The ancestor of the Qi family was sure that their abnormality was related to Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu raised his eyebrows: "What can a mere Jindan-stage cultivator like me do to you, the powerful Lianxu-stage cultivators?"
The ancestor of the Qi family was flexible and in a moment he smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
"Friend Nangong, we were just joking with you just now, I hope you don't mind. We are willing to give you a generous reward, and please send the five of us out."
"Don't you want the treasure anymore?" Nangong Chenyu raised his fist, indicating that what he held in his hand was the treasure.
"Treasures are always obtained by those who are destined to get them, and lost by those who are not. We have no chance of getting the treasure." The ancestor of the Qi family said generously, with a look of having let it go.
Nangong Chenyu wanted to roll his eyes at him. He said with a tsk, "Weren't you planning to kill people and steal treasures just now? Why did you give up so easily?"
Of course you can't give up.
It's just a delaying tactic.
Staying here, they had a lot of skills but were unable to use them, and could do nothing to Nangong Chenyu.
Once they got outside, Nangong Chenyu just let them do whatever they wanted.
At this moment, the ancestor of the Qi family wished he could poison Nangong Chenyu to death, and a flash of resentment flashed across his eyes. But when Nangong Chenyu looked at him, he immediately returned to his honest and simple appearance.
"We were just joking with you." The Qi family ancestor laughed.
“Heh~” Nangong Chenyu sneered.
The five Qi family ancestors all had the same black face.
"Okay, everyone be quiet. I want to see what the legendary treasure is." Nangong Chenyu made a gesture to keep quiet.
Just now, when his hand passed through the cylindrical platform and grasped the red object, he received a message.
The person can be teleported out by using the cylindrical platform; in addition, the cylindrical platform can protect the owner. As long as you stay within one meter of the cylinder, you will be protected by the cylinder.
Nangong Chenyu spread out his hands, and the red object was crystal clear. Under the illumination of the luminous stone, it flickers from time to time. It looks more like a ruby.
The five ancestors of the Qi family stared at the thing in Nangong Chenyu's hand intently, wishing they could reach out and snatch it away immediately.
Suddenly, the red object flew out of Nangong Chenyu's hand, flew out of the barrier, and hovered in front of the five ancestors of the Qi family.
The five people looked at each other greedily and reached out to grab it.
Just then, something unexpected happened. I saw a red object emitting red light that enveloped the five people. Then he frantically absorbed the spiritual energy from the five people.
The five men were unable to move.
Before long, the greed in the five people's eyes was replaced by fear.
In just half a quarter of an hour, the five people's cultivation level dropped by a small level.
The more spiritual energy absorbed, the more transparent the red object appears.
The five people's cultivation continued to decline.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the five people's cultivation base all dropped to the Spirit Transformation Stage.
