Chapter 305: Fate Turbidity
In the darkroom.
Endless elixir fire licked the bottom of the furnace, and the flames made Gu Qingyuan's face dark and unclear.
In the huge uncovered alchemy furnace, countless broken limbs and flesh were rolling, and shrill cries were heard from time to time. Various alchemy materials poked out of the water while rolling, constantly alienating and deforming, sometimes growing eyeballs and tentacles, and sometimes collapsing into a pool of blood.
Strange phenomena kept occurring and things were changing very strangely, but Gu Qingyuan turned a deaf ear to them, as if he was unaware. He just stared at the alchemy furnace and added other ingredients for the elixir from time to time.
To make an elixir, especially a great elixir, one must pay attention to the combination of civil and military fire, the combination of dragon and tiger, the harmony of yin and yang, the coordination of medicinal properties, the monarch, ministers, assistants and messengers, no matter if the ingredients are ordinary herbs or those of countless immortal gods.
The Great Sage and his entourage from the Immortal Realm, in an act of disturbing the Heavenly Palace, swept through most of the Thirty-three Heavens, injured and killed countless immortals and gods, and those who would never be resurrected and remained were all gathered up by Gu Qingyuan.
He looked at the elixir that was sometimes red, sometimes dark, and constantly deformed. Although it was fading, it was also tainted with the power of immortals and gods, and even retained a trace of immortality.
The various elixir ingredients rose and fell, and as the flames melted into one, the elixir emitted a strange fragrance. If an ordinary person smelled it, they would probably go crazy immediately and plunge into the elixir to drink it in big gulps. They would also merge with the elixir and become a part of the strange elixir.
"It's not an exaggeration to call this great elixir of mine the immortality elixir. No, it should be the immortality magic elixir."
Gu Qingyuan said, paying attention to the fusion of Qi in the elixir. At this moment, a dark sound came from beside him. Next to him, there was a small wooden box with palm-sized, round clay dolls of different colors inside.
Now, in the wooden box, there is a white clay doll with a white-bearded old man painted on it. However, the top of the old man’s head slowly cracked, and then the crack expanded and gradually spread throughout the body of the clay doll. The strange noise also came from here.
Gu Qingyuan took a look and said, "That guy is quite fast. He found the Fuxing Temple right away."
He raised his hand and touched the top of the clay doll. Pieces of clay fell off like a Russian nesting doll, revealing another smaller clay doll underneath. The pattern of the white-bearded old man disappeared, leaving only a black-faced old man painted on the clay doll.
Gu Qingyuan gently turned the clay doll to the opposite direction of the other clay dolls: "We have waited for so long, it is time to act."
At the same time, in the Fuxing Temple, Gu Chen stood up and put away the yellow talisman, while calmly checking the "Golden Seal of Merit - Destiny" in his mind.
"Let's go, let's go. We don't know how many strange creatures are in this Desolate Yin Mountain. Let's leave early and live in peace." Yan Jing urged.
Gu Chen nodded, and turned to leave with Yan Jing, but he did not notice that the white staff he had pinned to his side flashed. In the invisible field of vision, the lucky star in the shrine emitted gray air, which was absorbed by the white staff.
When Gu Chen and the other person walked away, a figure appeared. If Gu Chen saw it, he would definitely recognize it as his third uncle.
Nanjishenshen·Fuyuanshen·Shouxing·Chenzhi's Third Uncle looked at the figure of the young man walking away and said, "This brat, is he still not reacting?"
There was a sound of breaking in his ears, and then he shook his head: "Alas, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, forget about him, it's time to get back to work."
The Southern Star pointed at the old wooden staff in his hand and said: "Over the past ten years, I have made countless connections and attracted countless disasters. It is time to pay it back!"
"The heart is higher than the sky, the life is thinner than paper, the life span is as long as the sky, the steel knife scrapes the bones, the turbid evil comes to the world, the five blessings come, the life is turbid, come!"
As Sirius the Antarctic opened his mouth, boundless calamity energy rolled in from the sky, hung down from the nine heavens, and covered all living things in heaven and earth.
Under the impact of the calamity energy, the laws of heaven and earth in this world trembled slightly, and some things were added into the laws of heaven and earth.
At this moment, although the mortals and low-level cultivators were unaware of it, the great cultivators who had mastered the Yin-Fa divine powers had a vague sense that their lifespans had been shortened a little, just a little, insignificant, but it was indeed shortened.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, was running away like a rabbit being chased by a dog. "What the hell is this?" he shouted.
Yan Jing only regretted that he had two less legs. He looked back at the huge monster that was chasing him relentlessly. As the giant took a step, a roar was heard.
"Bloat ghost, it's a bloat ghost!"
He looked back at the bloated ghost that was getting closer and closer, and said anxiously, "Legend has it that when a hungry ghost and a full ghost meet, they will eat each other. When they merge into one, they become a bloated ghost. Bloated ghosts eat everything and have a huge appetite. Moreover, as they eat more and more, their bodies will grow indefinitely."
Yan Jing took a deep breath and said, "This bloated ghost must have lived for at least a hundred years to be this big. Damn, such a strange creature born by chance can appear, and we just happened to encounter it. This is really unlucky!"
"The two of us are not enough to fill his teeth, why is he chasing after us so relentlessly?" he asked a little confused.
Gu Chen thought about his luck and the comment of being unlucky given by Gu Qingyuan, shook his head and said nothing.
Yan Jing braked suddenly, sparks almost coming out of the soles of his shoes: "No, if I keep running, my mana will probably be used up. I won't be able to get rid of this bloating ghost for a while, and then I will just be at the mercy of others. What do you think, do you want to fight?"
Gu Chen placed his long knife against a big tree nearby, panting slightly: "Fight! If you don't fight, you will die too, let's give it a try!"
He glanced at the huge bloated ghost and cursed in his heart: "Damn, how can I fight him? I can't even trim his nails with this knife."
"Okay, I'll take the lead and you provide support." Yan Jing said.
Gu Chen looked at Yan Jing's somewhat thin body, nodded without saying anything, and silently adjusted his breath.
"Five Emperors Copper Coin Sword, go!"
Yan Jing took out a copper coin sword, bit the tip of his tongue lightly, and spat his blood onto the sword made of copper coins from the prosperous era. A ray of golden light flashed across the sword and it flew out suddenly.
A golden light flashed, and a sword pierced through the heart. The bloated ghost was pushed back a few steps by the impact, and slapped the copper coin sword with his palm, while the big hole in his chest slowly healed with the rolling of blood and flesh.
"It won't die if it's pierced through the heart, and it has a strong healing ability. Try not to use point-piercing attacks. Try to cut off its limbs or behead it." Yan Jing told the information he observed.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, and the long sword flashed with golden light. The next second, it appeared on the shoulder of the bloated ghost. The sword light fell and embedded into the bloated ghost's shoulder blade. Halfway through, the golden light flickered and it was difficult to move forward.
Suddenly, the floating light dissipated, and was replaced by black light. Rolling negative energy burst out, enveloped Gu Chen, and turned him into an evil ghost in the fog. He held the hilt of the knife in his hand and stepped hard on the back of the knife. Black light wrapped around the long knife, and the blade extended, turning into a black knife magic weapon. The swollen ghost bones could no longer be an obstacle. Gu Chen fell to the ground with a bang, and a huge arm fell to the ground with him.
Yan Jing had no time to observe Gu Chen's bravery, and dozens of yellow talismans were scattered in his hands: "Gu boy, get out of the way!"
Gu Chen rolled over to avoid it, but before he could get up, he heard a loud shout in his ear.
"The true fire of the talisman, the morning sun!"
Those yellow talismans fluttered and stretched in the wind, sticking to the bloated ghost one by one. Under his feet, circles of black marks gradually swirled and appeared. With him as the center, eight black lines spread in all directions, outlining a huge talisman. If you look from the air, the circles of marks are connected, and in the innermost circle, the word "fire" gradually takes shape.
Afterwards, the overwhelming and exploding true fire enveloped the bloated ghost, turning it into a huge fireball that kept rolling.
