Mortal bone

As for why Xu Taiping came to the Bingying Cave, she never asked.

"If it goes well, many people will die in the Immortal Gourd Cave."

Xu Taiping nodded.

Because of Jiufu's instructions, no one but himself can tell what happened this time, so he can only reveal a little bit to Duan Xiaoyu.

"I understand."

Hearing this, Duan Xiaoyu suddenly nodded solemnly.

"Brother Taiping, don't worry, I won't let anyone in."

As she spoke, she turned around, lifted the knife and stared at the entrance of the icy cave without blinking.

……

inside the cave.

After taking out a luminous pearl used for lighting, the scene inside the small cave was clearly displayed in front of Xu Taiping.

Like other places in Bingying Cave, the inside of this cave is almost covered by ice crystals, and the cold air is even a bit heavier than outside.

After scanning around with the light of the night pearl, Xu Taiping finally found what he was looking for - the claw marks on the ice wall.

In the entire cave, there are a total of seven such claw marks.

But because each claw mark is very shallow and covered with frost, it is difficult to find if you don't look for it deliberately without seeing it.

And according to what Huang Que said, Xu Taiping must melt the ice wall in the area where these claw marks are located in order to be able to open this formation eye of the Bingying Cave step by step.

This is why Xu Taiping finds it troublesome.

"Three thousand gold fine coins are still less."

Xu Taiping muttered something in a low voice, and walked quickly to the side of the first ice wall that was about to melt.

He put his hands on the ice surface, and transformed the zhenqi condensed in his palms into fire elements, condensing them into flames.

Although this kind of flame transformed from true qi is not as good as real fire, its temperature is much higher than that of ordinary charcoal fire.

So as the flame in Xu Taiping's palm rose, the layer of ice on the surface of the ice wall was melting almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But after the ice on the surface melted, a light blue rune brilliance suddenly appeared on the surface of the ice wall, and then the speed of melting the ice wall became very slow.

"really."

Xu Taiping frowned and withdrew his palm.

Just like Huang Quizuo said in the summons, these ice walls have been restricted by runes by Lay Yuqing, and real fire must be used to slowly melt them.

If you try to smash it directly, the eye will self-destruct directly.

Xu Taiping looked around, and after confirming that he was the only one in the cave, he suddenly raised his palm again.

Immediately, a little golden flame began to gather in his palm, and finally, at a speed visible to the naked eye, it turned into a red crow with golden flames rising all over its body.

In the current situation, he can only rely on the Chiwu Golden Flame Art.

The Chiwu Golden Flame Art did not disappoint him, even though the ice surface was protected by prohibitions, it still began to melt rapidly.

"According to Brother Huangque's deduction, to completely melt the ice walls in these seven places, even if you use the True Fire Talisman, it will take a stick of incense. Now I use the Chiwu Golden Flame Art, which can save at least half a stick of incense."

He secretly deduced in his heart.

In fact, he also wears a real fire talisman, which could have melted the ice walls of these seven regions at once, but the problem is that the order in which the ice walls melt is also required, otherwise the eyes will still self-destruct.

"With so many layers of restrictions, it seems that Lay Yuqing didn't intend for anyone to be able to open this teleportation array."

While teasing from the bottom of his heart, he stuffed a Qi-increasing pill into his mouth, and continued to urge the Chiwujin fireworks to melt the ice wall.

"The time for half a stick of incense is delayed by Ice Toad and Duan Xiaoyu, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Xu Taiping looked out of the cave worriedly.

……

outside the cave.

"Cuckoo..."

Duan Xiaoyu, who was sitting cross-legged on an ice floe, suddenly let out a growling stomach.

Then she skillfully took out a piece of jerky from the ring, while continuing to stare at the entrance of the icy hole, she bit the jerky with her teeth.

The side effect of eating that spiritual herb is that she will feel hungry anytime and anywhere, even if she is already a master of the secluded realm, she still does.

But when he thought of the roast wild boar he had eaten before, and the dry meat in his hand, he suddenly lost his taste.

"Ugh……"

She sighed, and stood up holding the Suzaku knife.

"boom!"

At this moment, an explosion sound suddenly sounded at the entrance of the cave, followed by a shake of the icy cave.

"Qingyu, you bastard let me in too!"

An angry roar came from outside the cave.

However, as the stones at the entrance of the cave kept falling, completely blocking the passage at the entrance of the icy cave, the sound outside the cave disappeared.

Duan Xiaoyu, who was already alert, stuffed all the jerky in his hand into his mouth, and at the same time stepped on the ice floe and flew out, hiding in one of the small caves.

"You are indeed inside."

At this moment, a cold voice came from the direction of the cave entrance.

Then, Duan Xiaoyu took advantage of the fluorescence emitted by the ice crystals in the cave, and saw that at the entrance of the cave, there was a huge water mass gathering into a human shape little by little.

If it wasn't Qingyu from Huangfeng Valley, who else would it be?

In fact, Duan Xiaoyu had heard of Qing Yu's name before coming to the Immortal Gourd Cave.

After all, Huang Fenggu is the third ranked sect in the Nine Mansions, and the newly promoted young genius in its sect will naturally attract the attention of other sects.

The only thing that puzzled Duan Xiaoyu was why Qingyu followed Jiuyou to become a demon cultivator with such aptitude.

"Don't think that if you hide in the cave, I won't be able to find you."

Qing Yu's voice sounded again.

His tyrannical aura fluctuated, and then swept across the entire Bingying Cave, and at the same time, water threads began to fly out of his palm like spider silk, and then flew towards more than a dozen small caves below the Bingying Cave at an extremely fast speed go.

Although Duan Xiaoyu didn't know what kind of method this was, but she vaguely had a premonition that if these waterlines were allowed to enter those small caves, traces of Xu Taiping would definitely be discovered.

"Duan Xiaoyu, it takes a promise to be a man!"

Thinking of his previous guarantee to Xu Taiping, Duan Xiaoyu gritted his teeth and flew out of the hole with the Suzaku knife in his hand.

"Shua!" Almost at the moment Duan Xiaoyu flew out of the cave, Qing Yu's long knife, which was transformed into a claw shadow with knife energy, slashed directly at Duan Xiaoyu's body.

"Bang!" Although Duan Xiaoyu blocked the knife with Suzaku at the critical moment, his body was hit by the impact of the Qingyu long knife and fell into the ice pool.

"Boom!" But even if he fell into the ice pool, Qing Yu's saber was still with him like a shadow. When the saber energy cut through the water, the blade slashed straight at Duan Xiaoyu's chest.

But at this moment, Duan Xiaoyu calmed down instead.
