[Chapter 1717: A Mountain of Bones]
The Nine-tailed Immortal Palace mentioned by the Bee Fairy exists in the south of the Little Demon Realm. Although the entire Little Demon Realm is a world, it is not too big. Yang Yiyun, the Bee Fairy, and the Little Phoenix arrived at the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor’s territory in three hours.
The place where they were located was a mountain shrouded in fog.
The Bee Fairy looked at the vast fog and said, “What we are seeing now is actually the territory of the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor. In the vast fog, there is actually an extremely large mountain range. The
Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion is hidden on a mountain deep in the mountains. Of course, it is just the mountain gate, which is guarded by a real immortal formation. It is difficult for many people to enter the fog. Last time, my sister took a lot of trouble to reach the gate of the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion.”
This is not the first time that Yang Yiyun has ventured into the immortal cave of the immortal mansion. Naturally, he understands that it is not simple, and asked, “I’m afraid it’s not simple here.”
The Bee Fairy praised, “Brother Yun is smart. After entering the fog, we have to walk three thousand miles and cross the vast mountains. These fogs are the miasma in the mountains, and they hide exquisite formations in them, so they isolate the divine consciousness and the visibility is not high. It can be almost ignored. Even my sister’s cultivation can only see clearly about a hundred meters.
There are monsters in the mountains, and there are all kinds of harsh environments. Of course, these are trivial matters. My sister will take you to the gate of the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion as soon as possible. The real test waiting for us is in the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion, so don’t worry about it on the road.”
“Can’t we just fly over from the sky?” Yang Yiyu asked.
Bee Fairy smiled and shook her head and said, “No, my sister said that the fog here implies the existence of a formation. If you fly in the sky and can’t see clearly below, you will only get lost. The subtlety of the formation is change. Even if you locate the direction, you will eventually get lost and walk further and further, so we just walk there.”
Yang Yiyu nodded and said, “That’s right. In some of the immortal caves I have been to, there are indeed illusions and formations in many places. Sometimes it is not possible to get through with a high level of cultivation. The only way is to break the formation.”
“Let alone whether the formation can be broken, even if it can be broken, the time spent is enough for us to reach the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion directly.” Bee Fairy shook her head and said.
After a pause, she continued, “Brother Yun, sister, let me say one more thing. The Nine-tailed Immortal Palace is the palace of the real demon emperor, far beyond the ordinary immortal mansions, so when we get there, we must be extremely alert and must not be careless. There are only a handful
of people who can be called the demon emperor of a region, even in the immortal world. You must not take it lightly at any time, otherwise even your sister may not be able to protect you, especially after you arrive at the Nine-tailed Immortal Palace. If you encounter danger, you may not be able to take care of yourself…”
Yang Yiyu knew that the Bee Fairy’s reminder meant, or was kind, hoping that he would not be arrogant and should be vigilant at all times. He nodded to show his understanding.
Then the Bee Fairy took the lead and led the way. Yang Yiyu had Diao’er squatting on his shoulders and holding the little phoenix in his hand. Two big and one small, Diao’er stepped into the misty mountains.
Originally, he thought he would encounter a lot of troubles, but with the Bee Fairy leading the way, everything went smoothly.
According to the Bee Fairy, she had found a relatively safe shortcut the last time she came here. Occasionally, she encountered some dangerous places and monsters along the way, but they were all solved by the Bee Fairy. It
took them half a month to walk through the three thousand miles of Misty Mountains and finally arrived at their destination.
It was a smooth journey.
Of course, Yang Yiyun knew that this was because the dangers were solved by the Bee Fairy. He just followed behind and didn’t contribute much. He
also saw that after about two hundred years of separation, the growth of the Bee Fairy was far beyond his imagination. According to the Bee Fairy herself, she is now at the level of a fifth-turn scattered fairy, or a true fairy, but Yang Yiyun thinks it is definitely far more than that.
Because the means shown by the Bee Fairy along the way opened his eyes and gave him a deeper understanding of the creatures in the fairy world. He
also secretly reminded himself in his heart that he must not underestimate the creatures that really came to the fairy world in the future, otherwise he would suffer a great loss.
…
The destination is naturally the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion, which is also the cultivation place of his master’s wife. However, the old man’s previous words made him very depressed, because the old man said that he had never been to the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion at all, and only knew that this Nine-tailed Master’s Wife lived in the Little Demon Realm.
Otherwise, the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion would be his home for him. Even if there were any treasures in it, they were all his.
How could he let the Bee Fairy get involved?
Of course, Yang Yiyun never told the Bee Fairy that the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion was his master’s wife’s home.
However, there was one thing that Yang Yiyun knew very well, that the old man would never let the Bee Fairy take away the important things in the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion.
This was his understanding of his own old man, so after thinking about this, Yang Yiyun was in a very good mood.
He was not worried that he would not gain anything in the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion.
The gate of the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion was indeed on a big mountain, as the Bee Fairy said.
To be precise, it was just a portal.
On a mountain that seemed to be flattened by a sword and was as vertical as a mirror.
The stone of the entire mountain is green, with a faint green halo. It is about 100 meters high and 100 meters wide, and square.
If it is round, it will look like a big mirror from a distance.
There are faint inscriptions on it, similar to the natural patterns on the stone, beautiful and mysterious.
“Is Sister
Jiuer here?” Looking at the mirror-like mountain, Yang Yiyun walked forward while asking. At this time, the Bee Fairy shouted: “Brother Yun, don’t go over there. This is the gate of the Nine-tailed Fairy Mansion. Don’t approach rashly. Each inscription on the mountain contains extremely powerful power. If it is touched, it will explode. Even if I am your sister, I will avoid its edge and dare not touch it head-on.
What we need to do now is to find a way to break the formation. Breaking in by force will not work at all. Although it is rumored that the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor has long left the Little Demon Realm and it is still deserted, the power of the formation at the gate of the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion still exists. For countless years, too many cultivators from the Little Demon Realm have died here. Look at the bottom of the mountain…”
The Bee Fairy asked Yang Yiyu to look down the mountain.
Yang Yiyu followed the Bee Fairy’s gaze, but the next moment he took a breath.
“Hiss~”
He saw a little white light looming in the thick dead leaves and soil under the mountain.
A closer look showed that the white light was nothing but human bones.
Human bones piled up like mountains.
After countless years, they still flashed with light, still not hatched, and still had a faint light, which showed that the cultivators who died here were all people with strong cultivation.
There is no doubt that these people wanted to enter the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion, but they ended up being buried under the formation.
“This… is really…”
Yang Yiyun wanted to sigh, but he didn’t know what to say.
Within a hundred feet, there were human bones.
How many people died here?
Thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands…?
Anyway, it looked a bit scary.
But Yang Yiyun also knew that this was the insufficiency of human nature. In the final analysis, it was the result of excessive greed.
These people wanted to enter the Nine-tailed Immortal Mansion, but they were unable to resist the attack of the formation, and finally died under the power of the formation.
In response to this, Yang Yiyun added two more warnings to himself. First, don’t be reckless in doing things, and second, control your greed.
Otherwise, the end will be the same as these people.
Seeing that Xiao Fenghuang and Diao’er also had shock in their eyes, Yang Yiyun said: “Diao’er, Shanhong, remember these piles of bones, they all died of greed. You must control your greed in the future. When facing any natural treasures, don’t be reckless. Those who are capable will get it, and those who are not capable can’t force it. The way of cultivation will live longer, and you can live longer.
These years, they are all people with extraordinary cultivation, not ordinary mortals. They can all turn into mountains of bones. The power of the formation here can be imagined. You must not act against the will of heaven. “
“Squeak~”
“Got it, brother.”
Diao’er and Little Phoenix replied.
At this time, after hearing this, the Bee Fairy smiled and said, “Brother Yun, don’t take it too seriously. The people who died here, I think they were either ignorant, too greedy, or didn’t understand the way of formations, otherwise they wouldn’t turn into bones. We came here, and I naturally have a way to break the formation and get in.”
“How to break it?” Yang Yiyu looked at the Bee Fairy and asked.
