I fly with a sword in the magic academy

Chapter 187 Repaying the favor (Part )

As soon as Jiang Yue approached, a strong medicinal fragrance hit her nostrils, a peaceful aura lingered, and an incomparable holy power circulated. It was also filled with a kind of coercion that reached deep into the heart and soul. It was obvious that she had unimaginable peerless power. Guard here with heavy weapons.

On the left and right sides of the underground palace, a group of white-haired old men with extraordinary temperament sat cross-legged and closed their eyes to meditate.

They are several of the most powerful men in the Bei Yusi, as well as several extremely senior elders from the Nangong family.

Behind them, a three-meter-high purple-gold medicinal cauldron stood there, and the rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire underground palace.

A body shaped like dead wood was soaked in it, motionless. The condition was very bad, and there was no sense of life at such a close distance.

Jiang Yue's heart skipped a beat. At that time in Wuji Mountain, all she saw was a vague shadow outline. She didn't expect that Nangong City Lord's true body would be in such a bad condition.

It is said that when Nangong City Lord was a boy, he was handsome and powerful, with unparalleled fighting power. No matter where he went, he was the most eye-catching bright star.

People at that time believed that he was the most likely candidate to attain the status of a saint. However, after suffering tens of millions of years in the Wuji Mountains, he was reborn as a haggard old man, no longer the same as before. The invincible spirit of looking at the world is just a kind of sadness of a hero in his twilight years.

Seeing Nangong City Lord like this, Jiang Yue felt very uncomfortable.

"The current situation of Nangong City Lord..."

Jiang Yue frowned. Nangong City Lord's physical condition was much worse than she expected. With his current weak body and spirit, he might not be able to withstand the strong and powerful properties of Kunpeng's elixir.

"During this period, with the help of the Holy Medicine Cauldron and various spiritual blood medicines, we have not been able to improve the ancestor's physical condition. We can only barely maintain his weak life essence that may die at any time." Mu. Yang Chun sighed deeply.

"The properties of Kunpeng's elixir are too strong. Nangong City Lord's current body simply cannot bear it." Jiang Yue glanced around and asked, "Why don't you set up a magic circle to gather around this area?" Is the surrounding world angry?"

Mu Yangchun sighed softly and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Xiang can think of things, how can we, who are half-inhabited by the loess, not think of it? It's not that we don't know how, but the anger around Tai'an City has now been wiped out. The confinement and suppression has been suppressed, and they cannot gather at all."

"These people are always hateful! It's a pity that the Holy Spirit Stone containing more than thirty colorful spiritual insects was taken away, otherwise it could be used to improve the physical condition of Nangong City Lord." Jiang Yue frowned.

The Kunpeng Immortal Medicine can indeed save Nangong City Lord, allowing him to regain his life and live a second life, but only if his body can withstand the power of the medicine, otherwise it will not save people but harm them.

"If you really want to save this person, I can show you a clear way."

At this moment, Xiao Yuzhu, who was hiding in the secret territory of Zifu, secretly used his spiritual consciousness to send a message to Jiang Yue.

"Do you have a way?!" Jiang Yue was overjoyed and quickly asked Xiaoyuzhao if there was any way to help Nangong City Lord tide over the difficulties.

"At the southern end of the wilderness state, there is a place called the Valley of the Dead. There are nine fairy springs and nine fairy medicines there. As long as you can get the water from the fairy springs, all the problems you are facing now will be solved." Yaozhu said slowly.

"Then what are you waiting for? Take me there quickly!" Jiang Yue was about to leave for the Valley of the Dead to get the medicine.

"I would like to remind you that the Valley of the Dead is also a lifeless place, and its level of danger is no less than that of the Ancient Fairy Realm. You must think clearly." Xiaozhu said.

"Nangong City Lord has been very kind to me. Even if my life is at risk, I will try my best!" Jiang Yue said without hesitation.

"Okay, I will build a teleportation circle for you right now."

"What do you mean, you won't come with me?"

"Are you kidding? You are going to die yourself. Why am I following you?"

"Can't you say something auspicious?" Jiang Yue almost snatched this kid out of the secret territory of Zi Mansion and beat him up, as if she would never come back after her trip to the Valley of the Dead. It’s like he’s not coming.

"Senior, I have to go somewhere to get something first. I hope that senior can try to stabilize Nangong City Lord's life before I come back." Jiang Yue did not delay, simply explained a few words and left the City Lord's Mansion.

The Valley of the Dead is located in the southernmost part of Huangzhou. It covers an area as large as two Tai'an cities. It is covered by dense virgin jungle. The vigorous ancient trees tower into the clouds like horned dragons, and the old vines are like snakes and pythons, with wrong roots. Tangled.

This is the corner of life in the eyes of the world. It has been shrouded in the air of death all year round. Even the most powerful people dare not set foot in it. Every time they pass by here, they will go far around.

As soon as Jiang Yue came out of the teleportation circle, she felt that her life essence was being lost, and there seemed to be an invisible and strange force trying to refine her.

"No wonder it's a life crisis. It's really evil." Jiang Yue was horrified in her heart and hurriedly emitted the body-protecting divine light to protect herself, but even so, she couldn't stop the loss of her life essence.

Jiang Yue frowned, this was not good information. If this continued, she might turn into a skeleton and die here before she could find the nine fairy springs.

Not daring to delay, she took action quickly. The terrain ahead was flat, with towering ancient trees casting large shadows. It was cold because there was no sunlight.

After flying for about seven or eight hundred meters, Jiang Yue's expression changed drastically.

Not far ahead, there was a corpse standing upright under a huge banyan tree, exuding an extremely strange aura that could make people shudder even from a distance of fifty or sixty meters.

Jiang Yue quickly stepped back without thinking. At the same time, a green-edged sword more than four feet long appeared in her hand, ready to deal with any eventuality.

However, the corpse remained silent for a long time and did not attack her.

"I can't sense life fluctuations. I guess there should be no danger." Jiang Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and slashed out with a sword light. The skeleton in front of him immediately exploded into pieces.

She speculated that the location of the nine fairy springs should be in the deepest part of the Valley of the Dead. She wanted to fly directly with her sword to find it, but she quickly gave up the idea because she found that when magic power is used here, the life essence will be lost. Faster.

"No wonder it is said that even the peerless power has never come back. The continuous loss of life essence cannot be stopped at all. Over time, it will turn into a pile of bones." Jiang Yue felt awe-inspiring in her heart.

Sometimes, death is actually not terrible. It only takes a moment when one's head falls to the ground. The most unbearable thing is the torture of watching one's life come to an end little by little but being unable to do anything.

Only the cold moon and warm sun can torture a person's life. This is an unbearable torture that can drive people crazy.

As she gradually went deeper, Jiang Yue also discovered many spiritual herbs and medicines that were very rare in the outside world along the way.

Most of the medicinal herbs have been defined as extinct in the outside world, but they can be seen everywhere here. They have been growing for an unknown number of years, and their medicinal fragrance is rich and elegant.

Among them is an elixir that looks like a sapling. Its branches are straight and straight, shining brightly. Its whole body looks like it is carved from jadeite. It can be more than two meters high. Its leaves are as red as blood, and its fruits are granular, as if they were in the morning. The water drops are as crystal clear as dewdrops.

Jiang Yue flew forward, uprooted it and put it directly into his mouth to replenish the lost life essence.

"I used to hear old people say that if you are bitten by a snake outside, you can search the area carefully first, because there is a high probability that the detoxifying herbs will be nearby. The ancients do not deceive me."

Jiang Yue was pleasantly surprised to find that most of the elixirs grown here had the effect of nourishing life essence and prolonging life.

She quickly looted all the elixirs she saw and ate them while walking. After going hundreds of miles deep into the primeval forest, nine majestic sacred mountains came into view.

Looking from a distance, the nine sacred mountains are actually not that tall, but they are majestic and give people a sense of psychological oppression and shock.

At first glance, it looks like nine eternal gods standing there, which makes people's hearts throb and feel intimidating.

"That's..." Jiang Yue stared ahead and found that the nine sacred mountains were surrounded by an "n" shape. The gap in the middle was a bottomless abyss, with billowing black smoke steaming up from the bottom.

Under the abyss is probably the so-called Valley of the Dead.

At this time, a mind-numbing scene was being staged. White bones and corpses crawled out from under the abyss. They were so densely packed that Jiang Yue was so frightened that she staggered back dozens of steps and almost fell to the ground. .

"What's the situation? They are obviously dead corpses and bones. Why can they still act like humans?" Jiang Yue shivered unconsciously. This scene was really scary.

She rummaged through the storage ring and finally found a talisman sword that was over a foot long and made of dozens of folded talisman papers.

Xiao Yuzhu gave this to her before entering the Valley of the Dead, saying that this talisman sword could help her escape when she encountered a life-or-death crisis, but she could only use it three times.

"Three chances to use it is equivalent to three more lives. Fight!" Jiang Yue clenched the talisman sword tightly in her hand and ran towards the nearest sacred mountain.

This sacred mountain is extremely beautiful with lush vegetation and strange rocks. However, Jiang Yue has no time to appreciate these rare scenery. She is running as fast as she can with her talisman sword in hand.

At this point, the loss of life essence became faster, and wrinkles and freckles began to appear on her skin.

After walking for about three to four hundred meters, she could already see the top of this sacred mountain through the lush vegetation and rocks, and the army of corpses climbing up from the abyss were rushing towards her like a flood. .

The surrounding fields were filled with frightening surging whiteness, and an army of tens of thousands of corpses were crawling around, making a "click-click" sound when the joints rubbed together, which made people's scalps itch.

"call"

A gust of evil mountain wind blew, and Jiang Yue felt that most of the living essence in her body was sucked out at once, and her green hair turned into white hair in an instant.

"buzz"

At this moment, the talisman sword in her hand suddenly bloomed with dazzling brilliance, blowing up waves of strong wind, shattering all the surrounding trees and rocks.

Most of the corpses that were almost crawling to the feet were wiped away in an instant.

After doing all this, the brilliance of the talisman sword dimmed, and most of the originally densely packed runes were suddenly blank, leaving only two opportunities to use it.

Jiang Yue didn't stop and ran forward, picking up each elixir and stuffing it into her mouth.

The closer to the top of the mountain, the faster the loss of life essence. Although the Talisman Sword had just exerted its power and wiped out a large army of corpses, countless corpses soon crawled out from the abyss and moved towards them quickly. The surge came here and soon surrounded her again.

"kill!"

Jiang Yue scolded lightly, holding the Qingfeng Sword in her hand and charging forward. She did not dare to use any secret magic power, and she did not even dare to mobilize her magic power easily, because then the life essence would be lost faster.

When she was still two or three hundred meters away from the top of the mountain, her hair was already as white as snow, and her originally firm and smooth skin had completely lost its luster, like a piece of waste paper that had been crumpled into a ball and then unfolded, and she was as old as a hundred-year-old woman. , She no longer looks like that sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.

However, she herself was completely unaware of this and was still moving forward with her sword. In the process, she almost kept the elixir in her mouth. However, after arriving here, the life essence nourished by the elixir could no longer keep up with the rate of loss.

"That is……"

Suddenly, her expression froze and she stopped in her tracks.

Right in front, a woman with a fairy-like appearance stood there, looking at her quietly.

This woman's bright eyes and white teeth are as beautiful as dust. Her icy muscles and jade bones are like hibiscus emerging from the water. She is dressed in a pure white silver moon robe, which makes her look like a fairy who is about to ride on the wind.

"What a nice view……"

Jiang Yue blurted out that among all the women she knew, only Princess Qingyan from the Yao Clan could rival the woman in front of her.

"who are you?!"

Jiang Yue felt alert and quickly took a few steps back, unable to sense any human aura from this beautiful woman.

Moreover, since entering the Valley of the Dead, her life essence has been continuously drained at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she is about to run out of energy. However, the beautiful woman in front of her is not affected at all and is still beautiful. He is so charming and charming. This alone is enough to show that this person is not simple.

Jiang Yue suddenly felt shocked, and the words "Forbidden Creatures" flashed through her mind!

There are forbidden creatures in the ancient fairyland, so how could there be no forbidden creatures in the Valley of the Dead, which is also a place of life?

Just when she was lost in thought, an extremely evil aura hit her face, and the beautiful woman came to Jiang Yue in many steps.

"What are you going to do?! Don't come here!" Jiang Yue shouted, panicked and stepped back dozens of steps, holding the Qingfeng sword in front of her, her chest heaving violently.

It's no wonder she reacted so violently. After all, she was facing creatures that did not belong to the six realms. If she said she wasn't afraid, she would definitely be lying.
