Chapter 1080: Pursuing clues
Under the leadership of Hu Qingqing, Luo Xiu went to the ancient ruins where Lu Mengyao disappeared.
The moment he left the ancient city of Dahuang, Hongwu and Taoist Qingshan got the news immediately. Regarding Luo Xiu's recognition by Huangta, neither of them reported it to the senior officials of the forces behind it. After all, it was related to Huangta. Once the tower treasure is known to the senior officials, the final benefits may not fall into the hands of juniors like them.
After coming out of the Desolate Tower, Hongwu and Taoist Qingshan used a large number of treasures and magic pills to recover their lost cultivation and injuries.
In a valley not far from the ancient city of Dahuang, Hongwu and Taoist Qingshan met here. In order to deal with Luo Xiu, the two of them had decided to continue to join forces.
"In the Desolate Tower, we almost got killed by him when we worked together. Although he left the Desolate Ancient City, unless we invite other helpers, there is nothing we can do about him." Hong Wu said in a deep voice.
"I don't recommend taking action now. Although Luo Xiu is powerful, his cultivation is only at the middle stage of the eighth-level gods and demons. As long as you and I reach the realm of the ninth-level gods and demons, we will have the strength to kill him!"
Taoist Qingshan said slowly, "The stronger the strength, the more difficult it is to break through. If Luo Xiu wants to cultivate to the ninth level of gods and demons, he will definitely not be faster than you and me."
Hearing this, Hong Wu's eyes couldn't help but light up, "Your proposal is good!"
Hong Wu and Taoist Qingshan are both in the late stages of eighth-level gods and demons. They both know very well that whoever can cultivate to the realm of ninth-level gods and demons first will be the first to take the initiative and seize the qualification for recognition from Huangta!
…
Luo Xiu knew that Hongwu and Taoist Qingshan must plot against him. It had been several days since he left the ancient city of Dahuang, but he still did not see the strong men from the Hong clan and Qingtian Palace. This made Luo Xiu understand that Hongwu and Taoist Qingshan did not plan to plot against him. What happened on the fifth floor of the Desolate Tower told them that the higher-ups of the forces behind it must have concealed it.
"It seems that the two of them plan to break through to the ninth level of gods and demons before taking action."
With Luo Xiu's wisdom, he could easily guess the plans of Hong Wu and Taoist Qingshan, but Luo Xiu didn't take it to heart. If Hong Wu and Taoist Qingshan thought that they could deal with them after practicing to the ninth level of gods and demons, they would definitely let them do it. The two were shocked.
The ruins that Hu Qingqing mentioned are not difficult to find. There is indeed a huge teleportation formation here, but it is not like the one-time one that Hu Qingqing said.
However, the level of this formation is very high. Hu Qingqing has found many formation masters to take a look at it over the years, but they have not been able to figure out the reason.
"The condition for the activation of this formation must be to arrange the formation patterns according to a certain pattern. When Mengyao was teleported away, it was probably because she accidentally touched a certain formation pattern, which happened to make the arrangement of the formation patterns form a regular pattern, and then she was teleported gone."
Luo Xiu studied here for more than two months, and then he got a glimpse of the mystery of this teleportation formation. This teleportation formation is of a very high level, at least a ninth-level emperor-level formation. Even Luo Xiu is now Can't arrange it.
Once this teleportation formation starts a teleportation, the arrangement rules of the formations will be disrupted.
"I want to start teleportation, because I don't know where exactly it will be teleported, so don't teleport with me." Luo Xiu said to Hu Qingqing.
"Sir, please let me go with you." Hu Qingqing said insistently, "If I hadn't paid attention, sister Mengyao wouldn't have been missing for so long. No matter how great the danger, I will find her. she."
Luo Xiu didn't know how to refuse Hu Qingqing's reason. In addition, Hu Qingqing's strength was also very good, so he nodded and agreed without thinking too much.
"Buzz!"
A few days later, the arrangement rules of this teleportation formation were rearranged by Luo Xiu. A bright divine light lit up. In an instant, the figures of Luo Xiu and Hu Qingqing disappeared during the teleportation of the formation.
As for the area around this ancient ruins, Luo Xiu has already deployed a large number of formations to block it, so that if someone accidentally enters here and accidentally destroys the formations, he will not be able to teleport back.
The entire teleportation process was very long. When the surrounding scene changed and returned to calm, Luo Xiu found that he was already in a desert.
This is indeed a desert, and it is very large. His consciousness spread out to cover millions of miles, but it did not extend to the edge of the desert.
There is also a teleportation array where he and Hu Qingqing are, so it can be seen that the teleportation array here is connected to the teleportation array on the other side of the wilderness.
"Where is this?" Hu Qingqing also observed the surrounding environment and asked in confusion.
Luo Xiu frowned slightly. He could sense the regular Taoist aura of the world where this desert was located, which was very different from the wilderness world. This meant that he and Hu Qingqing probably left the wilderness world through teleportation and came to the desert world. Other supreme realms are even unknown worlds.
His previous life, Supreme Love, had been to many places in the Bafang Supreme Realm, and his footprints were all over the other seven supreme realms except the Heaven Realm.
The rules of heaven and earth and the aura of Tao Yun here are different from the Seven Directions Supreme Realm he visited in his previous life, which made Luo Xiu's eyes shrink.
"I think we should have arrived in the heaven." Luo Xiu said.
"skyline!?"
Hu Qingqing's face changed slightly. For a reverse cultivator, heaven is definitely a forbidden place, because the most powerful inheritance in heaven is the Twelve Heavenly Palaces of the Celestial Clan, which belongs to the inheritance of Cangtian Dao.
The Cangtian Dao and the counter-cultivation path have been mortal enemies for eternity!
In a place like Heaven, once reverse cultivation occurs, it will inevitably be hunted down and annihilated by all forces!
Luo Xiu didn't explain too much. He stepped out of the teleportation array and found that the location of the teleportation array in the desert was also very hidden. In addition, this desert had poor resources and almost no martial arts cultivators would come there on weekdays. Come to this kind of place.
Now Luo Xiu is basically certain that the formation that transported him, Hu Qingqing, and Lu Mengyao to the heaven should be an interface transmission formation. The eight supreme realms are separated from each other by the vast starry sky and void, and the heaven There are two supreme realms farthest away from the Desolate Realm. Being able to connect these two supreme realms to transmit to each other, the level of this interface array must be beyond the emperor level, and may even be the emperor level or... Supreme level!
"Buzz!"
Luo Xiu raised his hand and drew in the air, a bright silver light flashed up, the void split open, and a long river of time emerged.
Seeing this scene, Hu Qingqing's eyes couldn't help but light up. This is a way to trace back time. Although this method is not very clever, it has a harsh condition, that is, it must be a strong person who practices the way of time. Only then can we do it.
The way of time is extremely profound, and few people can practice it to a high level. Therefore, there are actually not many people who know how to use the method of tracing back time.
Hundreds of years have passed since Lu Mengyao was teleported to heaven, and the aura that originally belonged to her around this teleportation array has long since dispersed. Only by tracing back time can we determine her whereabouts.
To reverse time, one must endure a certain amount of backlash. With Luo Xiu's current cultivation level, some backlash can no longer have the slightest impact on him.
It didn't take long for him to go back in time to scenes hundreds of years ago.
In the scene presented by the river of time, Lu Mengyao was teleported in panic and then casually chose a direction to leave.
Moreover, Luo Xiu also saw from the long river of time that Lu Mengyao came back twice in the past few hundred years, once three hundred years ago and once two hundred years ago.
Obviously, Lu Mengyao was also looking for a way to return to the wilderness, but she tried twice and failed. For the next two hundred years, she never came back.
"This way!"
Luo Xiu stretched out his hand to point out a direction, and the long river of time that evolved in his hand immediately disappeared. After all, maintaining this kind of magical power takes a huge toll on one's cultivation.
"let's go!"
Luo Xiu turned into a streak of escaping light, and Hu Qingqing followed closely behind, tracing the direction where Lu Mengyao had left to find the past.
A few days later, two rays of light finally flew out of this vast desert. Luo Xiu's consciousness sensed the appearance of a city in front of him. Above the city, there were several large mottled characters engraved on it: Quicksand City.
Both Luo Xiu and Hu Qingqing used secret techniques to change their appearance. After all, they are both well-known people in the wilderness. They must hide their identities when walking in the heaven.
The two of them did not immediately enter the quicksand city, but Luo Xiu created a concealment talisman and at the entrance of the city gate, he once again used the magical power to reverse time.
Going back to more than two hundred years ago, Luo Xiu saw through the long river of time that Lu Mengyao had indeed been here!
After confirming this, Luo Xiu and Hu Qingqing entered Liusha City.
"It seems that we are lucky. If we follow the clues and look for it, we will definitely be able to find Mengyao." Luo Xiu said while walking on the streets of the city.
"It's just that Liusha City is so big, where can we find news about Mengyao?" Hu Qingqing said eagerly.
Although the magical power of reversing time is very useful, it is impossible to cover such a large city. With Luo Xiu's current strength, he can only cover a radius of several hundred meters at most.
The scope of this Liusha City is at least a dozen miles in radius.
Luo Xiu did not explain Hu Qingqing's doubts. He seemed to be walking casually on the street, but in fact his eyes and consciousness were always aware of the shops and attics on both sides of the street.
In the world of martial arts, wherever martial arts practitioners gather, there will definitely be a Xilou who has been entrusted with a task to find out information. Although the person who runs this kind of business is relatively hidden, you can't find it as long as you pay attention.
"it's here."
Suddenly, Luo Xiu stopped and pointed to a teahouse next to the street.
This teahouse is called Xiaoxi Teahouse. It seems ordinary and simple, but anyone who knows the business knows that the so-called Xiaoxi actually means news. This is a teahouse that provides various information for purchase!
Hu Qingqing didn't understand this. When she saw Luo Xiu going to a teahouse, she couldn't help but look puzzled.
