Chapter 341: Photo Stone
Gu Zhifei and Hua Wuya had prepared for this moment for a long time. In order not to alarm her, they did almost everything without asking anyone else to do it.
Every cornerstone of the Hehuan Pavilion was laid one by one by Gu Zhifei himself according to the formation.
Of course, it is not impossible to temporarily place the array base, but the accuracy will not be high and the range will not be large.
This time, Gu Zhifei's Reversal of the Universe Formation included the entire Hehuan Pavilion. The scope and range of its involvement were something she had never tried before.
Moreover, the formation was complicated and she did not have the chance to try it a second time.
This time we can only succeed, we cannot fail.
Compared to Gu Zhifei, Hua Wuya is the one who should care about the results the most, but she is not in a hurry.
She looked at Gu Zhifei and even wanted to comfort her, telling her that success or failure didn't matter much, because she had lived for so long and had taken all the lives she wanted.
That’s not right. Leng Nuan’s life hasn’t been taken yet.
The moment she really wanted to open her mouth, all the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
She couldn't say it. If she said it, Gu Zhifei would probably not feel relaxed but even more nervous.
Thinking of this, Hua Wuya spread his hands and decided to leave everything to fate.
Gu Zhifei clenched his fists, lurking on the top floor of Hehuan Pavilion, observing everything below through the water mirror.
As she thought, Yan Jue was not a good person, and her sister was even less so.
As soon as she felt that she had fallen into a trap, her first reaction was to fill it with as many servants as she could reach.
The demon minions who were thrown into the center of the formation had no power to resist and were shattered by the killing formation.
Gu Zhifei looked at the blood mist below, his heart was not greatly moved, only indifference.
This place is full of demon cultivators, and their hands are stained with the blood of at least one handful of people.
They died in such a miserable way, which was a worthy death. Gu Zhifei did not feel any guilt because his formation affected them.
In the formation, Sister Yan Jue began to retreat quickly.
In her eyes, she saw a rain of fire all over the sky. The dark flames mixed with orange light were overwhelming and seemed to destroy everything.
Faced with flames of this intensity, she had no desire to resist. She kept using people as shields in front of her while she kept retreating.
Gu Zhifei watched her take another step back and move into the center of the Yin-Yang Formation she had set up.
The most important thing in the Reversing Qiankun Formation is the Yin-Yang Formation Core.
The Yin Array is the absorbed dead eye, and the Yang Array is where Gu Zhifei and Hua Wuya are.
To be more precise, Hua Wuya is Yangyan and Gu Zhifei is the controller of this formation.
As long as Sister Yan Jue falls into the Yin Array acupoint, she will not be able to escape today even if she is a Daluo Jinxian.
At the same time, Ling and the Nightmare Beast, who created the illusion, also exerted their strength again, determined to create the strongest illusion, so that Sister Yan Jue would willingly fall into the trap.
Gu Zhifei also drew out fire spiritual power to cooperate with them. In the formation, the true and the false seemed the most real.
Seeing that Sister Yanjue was about to fall into the Yin Eye, Gu Zhifei had not yet had time to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly heard Sister Yanjue laughing loudly:
"What a chain formation! What a great guy, Yan Jue, for turning from darkness to light!"
After hearing this, Gu Zhifei secretly thought that this was not good. Her formation was a combination of the Reversal of Heaven and Earth and the Psychedelic Formation. Since Sister Yan Jue could see the clues, did it mean that she had the ability to break out of the formation?
As she was thinking this, she saw Sister Yanjue retreating again and again, and finally falling into the Yin Eye.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Done!
She was delighted.
But this joy did not last long, as Gu Zhifei suddenly flew into the air and flew towards Sister Yanjue.
Gu Zhifei was shocked and wanted to stop it, but he was unable to do so because he had consumed too much spiritual energy in creating the illusion in the beginning.
Hua Wuya, as the eye of the Yang Array, could not move at all and could not use any magic power.
Ling looked up at Gu Zhifei shooting out like a cannonball, and just opened his mouth to express slight surprise, not knowing what this meant.
Only Gu Zhifei knew that once she fell into the Yin Formation, what would happen to Sister Yanjue would happen to her! It was too late to close the formation now, and she couldn't close it either. Once the formation was closed temporarily, all the people in the formation would be backlashed, and then not only would she die, but everyone would die.
The only sound I could hear was Sister Yanjue's arrogant laughter:
"Yan Jue! How about you and I, sisters, unite and go to hell together!"
She didn't know how to break the formation, and her talent close to the Nascent Soul stage also warned her that she couldn't escape today.
But what does it matter if she can't escape? She can still find someone to take the blame for her, and let her beloved sister die before her! Gu Zhifei knew that she couldn't escape this disaster, so she simply completed the last formation. Since she couldn't save everyone, she would just save those who could be saved.
"No!"
Hua Wuya understood her actions, veins popped up all over his body, and the spiritual energy in his body boiled.
She actually wanted to self-destruct to stop the formation from continuing to operate.
But since she was in Gu Zhifei's formation, she had to obey Gu Zhifei's orders.
The yang eye is a bright eye, and unlike the yin eye, it does not have the authority to move on its own. Gu Zhifei only made a slight adjustment, and Hua Wuya's entire aura dissipated, and the old skin on his face became more wrinkled.
At the same time, Gu Zhifei also touched the wall of the Yin Eye formation. She was about to merge with the entire formation! A clear bird cry sounded, and a golden firebird soared into the sky, fell from a height of thousands of meters, and plunged into the formation at an extremely terrifying speed.
Gu Zhifei was violently knocked away by this powerful force and fell to the side, watching the firebird suicidal itself into the Yin Eye, wrapping Sister Yan Jue with its pair of huge wings and bringing her into the Yin Eye.
Ling suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the flames, slightly stunned: That was the smell of the same kind! A sense of sadness spread from the bottom of his heart, and tears burst out from the corners of Ling's eyes. He shouted hoarsely and tremblingly: "Mom!"
The same smell in the air was very familiar. Who would have thought that the unremarkable cook in the restaurant was the mother of the little demon king, the heavenly demon Gong Yu who was best at disguise.
She dragged the female demon cultivator into hell in a nearly suicidal way, and met her child for the first and last time in the most cruel way.
In the sky, a golden bird let out a mournful cry. Ling looked up at the golden feathers on the bird disappearing piece by piece, and finally couldn't hold back his tears.
The wailing in his ears continued for a long time, and the reversal formation was activated at the same time. The broken flesh and spiritual power were poured into the formation, and vitality continued to flow into Hua Wuya's body.
But these were two people whose flesh and blood cultivation was close to that of Nascent Soul. Hua Wuya had no way of absorbing it all. The remaining dissipated spiritual energy was fed back to Gu Zhifei and Ling in the formation, causing their cultivation to slightly weaken.
The air was filled with golden energy, and the usually heart-stirring spiritual power could be found everywhere here, but no one felt excited or happy, and their hearts were heavy.
All the demon cultivators were killed, and they also suffered heavy losses.
Within a radius of three miles, there were no living creatures except Gu Zhifei and a few others. The huge energy caused by the collision destroyed everything around them, leaving nothing behind.
Gu Zhifei intended to minimize the losses, but things often turn out to be unexpected.
Who would have thought that Yan Jue had the control technique left by her sister in her body. Even if she had a new soul in her shell, she could still control Gu Zhifei through this technique.
If not for this, how could Gu Zhifei be controlled by her and fall into the Yin Eye.
How could Ling lose her mother?
Gu Zhifei sighed and reached out to rub Ling's head, but was met with violent resistance from the latter.
"Don't touch me!"
This was the first time Ling expressed such obvious resistance after Gu Zhifei reconciled with him.
"Ling, I'm not"
"Don't talk to me!" Ling interrupted her, "I don't want to listen. I don't want to hear anyone's explanation!"
Gu Zhifei was disappointed. Ling's mother's death was closely related to her, and if Ling insisted on blaming her, she couldn't argue.
Seeing that Gu Zhifei did not refute, Ling became even more angry. He stomped his feet, threw away the nightmare beast and was about to rush out, until Hua Wuya slapped him back.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Hua Wuya said: "You are so willful, are you worthy of your mother and everyone else?"
Ling pretended to be fierce: "It's none of your business!"
Hua Wuya took out a letter from his storage bag. A golden tail feather was pressed on the envelope. "Don't you want to see what she said at the end?"
Ling recognized that the tail feather was the longest one in the Gongyu clan, and immediately widened his eyes: "Where did you get it?"
Hua Wuya said: "Your mother left this before she blew herself up. She probably thought you would be able to see it if I handed it to you."
Ling looked at the letter in silence for a long time, and finally burst into tears.
Gu Zhifei saw him crying and knew that everything was fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he saw the desolate scene, he felt a little heavy in his heart.
The casualties were too heavy. Although this was called a victory, no one actually benefited from it.
Hua Wuya, who was standing beside her, knew what she was thinking and comforted her, "You know, these days, the demon cultivators have been entrenched in the ghost town, and nearly a hundred people die in the ghost town every day."
Gu Zhifei couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Are you telling me in disguise, is this actually worth it?"
Hua Wuya shook his head and said, "In the world of immortal cultivation, everyone is indifferent to life and death. Their reincarnation may not be a bad thing."
Those who were killed in the struggle were ordinary people or monks of low cultivation. The high-level monks had foreseen the danger and left long ago.
In the world of cultivation, if you have no cultivation, you are no better than a dog. Instead of living your whole life in fear, it is better to start a new life as soon as possible, and perhaps you can be more free and unrestrained.
Gu Zhifei didn't feel that Hua Wuya's ideas comforted her.
Hua Wuya said it another way: "If we don't take action today, the entire ghost town will be destroyed in a few days. No one will escape."
The purpose of the demon cultivators moving into the ghost town was, firstly, to obtain Hua Wuya's position as the city lord, and secondly, to obtain the demon king, Ling's mother.
Hua Wuya was plotted against by the traitors, and her life force was wiped out, leaving her only waiting for death. Once she fell, the entire ghost town would be in their hands.
It’s not that Sister Yan Jue had not thought about taking down the ghost town by force, but Hua Wuya is at the Nascent Soul stage after all, and if they really came to a head-on confrontation, he might bite back before he died.
Taking this into consideration, she decided to kill Hua Wuya first.
Hua Wuya could see her purpose, but he had no way to stop this question.
At this critical juncture, there were too many things in Ghost Town that required her to do personally, and she had no time to cause trouble for Sister Yan Jue.
It was at this time that the celestial demon Gong Yu came to her.
Gong Yu met her in the form of a beast. Hua Wuya didn't know that the cook was Gong Yu. The former told her that she could help Hua Wuya solve the trouble with the demon cultivator this time.
Hua Wuya had no choice but to agree to cooperate with her.
Sister Yan Jue has a big appetite. Not only does she want the land in the ghost town, she also wants to stew Gong Yu to complete her magic power.
The two had a common enemy. So Hua Wu and Gong Yu, one in the open and one in the dark, began to fight against the demon cultivator.
Seeing Gu Zhifei staring at him with wide eyes, Hua Wuya had no choice but to explain: "I really didn't know that she had just given birth to a little demon."
After all, Gong Yu laid an egg, not a child.
Gu Zhifei sighed, "I should have thought that Ling was a very vigilant child. Why would he suddenly let down his guard around a cook? There must be a reason, but I didn't have time to think about it."
All the abnormalities had already revealed the truth, but Gu Zhifei just didn't notice it.
After sorting out all the issues, Gu Zhifei watched Hua Wuya send people to clean up the mess, and pulled Ling back to the original inn.
There was no one else in the inn. The cook who had been busy all the time had turned into thousands of flames and disappeared into the mortal world.
There was an uneaten sweet potato on the table. Ling walked forward, picked up the sweet potato, put it to her mouth, and was about to swallow it.
But he didn't swallow it after all.
Holding the sweet potato in his hand, Ling tilted his head to look at it for a long time, and finally closed his mouth.
Gu Zhifei looked at him hesitating and said to him, "Eat it. If you don't eat it, it will go bad if you leave it there."
She finally understood why Ling, a bottomless pit, could be full by eating a few sweet potatoes. No wonder it is said that no one knows a child better than his mother. Only his own mother knows what kind of food is best for Ling.
But this treatment will no longer be available in the future.
Before Gu Zhifei had time to sigh, he heard Ling, who had finally stopped crying, sobbing again.
He has always longed for maternal love, but he also knows that it is a luxury.
When he was just born and was still an egg, he stayed alone in the barrier for an unknown amount of time.
When he broke out of the shell, he saw Gu Zhifei who was more angry than curious.
After crying for a while, Ling gradually calmed down.
He looked at Gu Zhifei and made his request in a hoarse voice: "Can you lend me your photo stone?"
Ling has no storage space, it remembers everything in its own brain.
It is really strange to ask her for the photo stone now.
Gu Zhifei saw through him but didn't say anything. He just took out a box of photo stones from his storage bag and asked him, "Do you want this?"
Ling nodded vigorously.
