When Does This World Have a Blood Bar Displayed?: Chapter 145 The Witch of Penglai Island

   Chapter 145 The Witch of Penglai Island

  Gu Mo stretched out a slender index finger and scratched his cheek lightly, he understood what Kikyo said...

   In fact, this is certainly not difficult to understand.

   However, he had just denied this possibility earlier, but the slap in the face came so quickly, like a tornado, which made him a little surprised. Taking a light breath, he leaned closer and looked at the two arrows in the witch's hand. From the appearance, they seemed to be exactly the same, including the mark that Kikyo said.

   As for breath... It's relatively close, but it's not exactly the same. With his sharp mental power at this time, he can easily spot the differences.

But this doesn't mean much. After all, the witch must have noticed this, and if this arrow was shot during the Warring States Period, it has been washed away on Penglai Island for five hundred years - even because of the enchantment on the island. Because of this, the flow of time on Penglai Island is different from the outside world—and it will change somewhat.

   This is a normal result.

"It's good, at least it's a signal that allows us to prepare in advance..." Gu Mo coughed lightly and said seriously, "If you want to verify, it's very simple, assuming these two arrows The arrow is indeed the same arrow, so if you make a mark on the original arrow, you can see it.”

"Let me see……"

   Kikyo thought for a while, and nodded slightly.

She turned one of the arrows upside down, and her slender fingertips stroked the arrow shaft lightly, the pure and clear light of spiritual power flashed away, and there was an obvious notch on the smooth shaft... It is a weak and boneless jade finger, but it can easily do this kind of thing, but it is not just a diamond finger force.

   I can do it myself, even...without relying on demon power.

Gu Mo glanced at his hands subconsciously. After many times of monsterization, even if he was able to release the fusion with the power of the Nine Tails every time, under the washing and transformation of the pure high-level monster power, his body was completely transformed. Still some changes have taken place.

His mastery of demon power is a proof, and now his fingernails seem to be a little slender, although not as sharp as when you turned into a monster, probably not as strong as the attack power and hardness when you turned into a monster, so that you can directly pierce through the body of a goddess with bare hands, take out Shen Jiuye the extent of the heart...

   But if you just want to leave a notch on the wood, it shouldn't be too difficult.

   "It is indeed the same..."

   Kikyo's tone was very indifferent, without any sign of surprise or surprise, or rather, she had actually accepted the guess just now, and what she is doing now is just to confirm.

At the moment when the notch on the arrow shaft appeared, the same notch also appeared on the other arrow shaft. It was exactly the same, no different... While Gu Mo was thinking about it, he was also paying attention to the two arrows. The situation is also the first to notice the synchronization change between them.

   To be honest, it was really amazing, but he couldn't see the mystery behind the change at all...

   Not only the sensory perception of the naked eye can't understand it, but also the spiritual thoughts that have been shrouded in it can't detect anything special at all.

   Maybe this is the power of time? Far from being easily accessible? He blinked lightly, reached out and took the two arrows in Kikyo's hand, pretending to look at it carefully, but in fact, he made the final confirmation through the system's annotation function.

   "It's really such a thing, it's a mysterious feeling. It should be said that it happened in the past, or something that happened in the future..."

  While he was sighing with emotion, he had a strange idea on a whim.

   He looked at the witch:

"By the way, is this doomed? If... I mean, if we break this first arrow now, it will definitely be useless, then Kikyo shouldn't be able to use it in the Warring States Period. Come out, right, so what will happen to what we have just experienced?"

  The shrine maiden was stunned for a moment. She probably didn't expect this person's brain to be so strange. She just confirmed such a thing, and when she turned her head, she thought about the possibility of a bug.

   "It's better not to try to play with time...it's a very dangerous idea."

   She shook her head gently, said in a calm voice, and at the same time reached out to retrieve the two arrows.

"Aha, this... I actually know it." Gu Mo said with a haha. The reason why a whim is a whim is because it is a strange idea that pops up temporarily. If it is a thought after careful consideration, then There would be no such bizarre idea.

   But the shrine maiden is right, playing with time is not a good idea. If this is a preordained thing, then if you want to change it, what will happen next? Gu Mo felt that something would always happen to stop things from changing and bring everything back to the original point.

   Or it really changed what was going to happen, and the time changed with it, and then a huge correction went down the timeline. I don’t know what it will be like in the end...

   After thinking seriously for a while, he twitched the corners of his mouth and quickly followed the Kikyo in front of him.

  …………

The beach has soft lines, the area is wide and gentle, the sand is white and soft, and the crescent-shaped thing stretches, while the forest vegetation further inside the coastline is extremely dense, towering trees and ancient ferns are intertwined. In the distance, silhouettes of rolling mountains can be seen.

   In fact, before the dead soul worms approached the sky above the island and landed on the beach on the edge of the island, Gu Mo had already overlooked the whole island—

In addition to the ancient forests, flat plains and lakes with vast blue waters, cascading waterfalls are suspended in the deep drop, and on the edge of the huge lake, along the lakeside scenery is a group of barren ancient houses It is continuous, like a village in ancient times, but most of them have been decayed and there is no breath of life.

As for the heart of the island, the mountains are continuous and steep, with sharp lines, as if they can cut through the blue sky at any time, with crisscrossed teeth and jagged rocks. Year-round black smoke...

   is not a very small overseas island, its area is extremely huge, and the concentration of aura in the air is very strong.

The Warring States period five hundred years ago was far from this level, not to mention the declining modern world. It is indeed convincing enough to say that the spiritual land left by the ancient immortals is just this abundant Reiki is already quite a good condition for cultivation.

  The two walked all the way, and the scenery they saw along the way was quite quiet and beautiful.

   Not long.

Then they came to the edge of the huge lake in the interior of the island. In front of them were a group of houses built along the coast. The thatched roofs had long been pitted and dilapidated. Extending over the calm lake, the trestle as a passage, the fishing nets hanging on the side, and the docked fishing boats are also tattered.

  Although the traces of existence have not been completely wiped out, it can be seen that time has passed for a long time.

  The village has no one to live or take care of. Naturally, everything has become sad and dilapidated, slowly decaying.

  “…”

  “…”

The witch was silent, she gently pushed open the wooden door of a house, making an unpleasant creaking sound, as if the door would collapse at any time... No, it should be said that the whole house seemed to be crumbling, like the wind As soon as it was blown, it was about to collapse. The witch just pushed the door, and the room seemed to be shaking slightly.

   "Be careful..."

  Gu Mo watched from the outside, the corners of his eyes could not help twitching slightly, although he knew that even if the house collapsed, it wouldn't hurt, but he still couldn't help reminding him.

   "Well, I know."

   Kikyo replied calmly, carefully looking at the environment in the room.

   After a while, she withdrew from it, picked another room and walked over.

The houses in this small area are relatively complete compared to the ruins that have been half-collapsed, and there are obvious signs of repairs. It should be the last residence of the surviving residents on the island. If she wants to collect information, it is naturally best to start from these places.

  Gu Mo looked around, and simply walked along the trestle not far away.

The trestle stretches far on the lake, and at the end is a high platform made of stones, which is like an altar. There are also brazier-shaped depressions in the corners around it, but it is now covered with green moss. .

   Standing on the high platform and looking at the quiet mountains and lakes under the night, Gu Mo took a deep breath of fresh air. The scenery in this scene is really refreshing.

The huge lake is surrounded by the surrounding mountains, as if it is strongly embraced by the stretched arms of giants. The lake is calm and calm like a huge mirror. with the stars...

  A picturesque scenery, like a paradise.

However, this place is originally a paradise, such a huge island, such a beautiful scenery, with a strong spiritual environment and cultivation conditions, and even a big enchantment isolated from the world, the residents of the island are also people and monsters... emmmmm, Then again, what's with this sense of sight?

   For a moment, Gu Mo's expression seemed a little subtle.

At this time, the calm lake water was slowly surging, and there seemed to be something huge underwater that noticed the young man standing on the altar on the lake. A pair of cold and ruthless huge eyes opened under the water, staring coldly at the young man above... ...then, the young man narrowed his eyes and looked over.

   "Huh? What are you looking at?"

   The next moment, everything came to an abrupt end.

   The unrest on the lake quickly stopped, and everything returned to calm.

Just as Longwei can frighten all weak creatures, just a light touch across the thick lake water will make the spirit of the monster under the lake suffer a heavy impact and trauma in a short moment... The huge underwater monster quickly Recognize the reality and shrink back decisively to play dead.

   "Let's go to the mountains now and take a look..."

   A calm voice came from far behind.

   Gu Mo turned around and saw that it was Kikyo who was already standing on the plank road by the lake, staring at him quietly. He no longer paid attention to the monsters in the lake, turned around and walked towards the witch, and asked at the same time, "Did Kikyo find anything?"

"They didn't leave in a hurry, and they didn't have much resentment left. It shouldn't be the worst result..." Gently stroked the blue silk that fell beside her ears, the witch said thoughtfully, but her tone was not quite sure. "It looks like they left the island together, not all sacrificed, but I still have to go to the mountains to take a look."

   There are apparently no more people on this island.

Whether it was the vicious Four Dou Gods or the surviving island residents, they were all gone... But what was the final result? The Four Dou Gods were beheaded and the survivors were able to leave peacefully; In this matter, the people on the island were finally sacrificed, and the Four Dou Gods could not be replenished with vitality, and eventually perished...

   This point also needs to go to the cauldron in the mountains and take a good look.

He turned his head to look at the crater in the distance, which seemed to be a volcanic crater in the distance. Gu Mo nodded lightly. He was also interested in the heart of this spiritual land. Hold up the barrier of time and let Penglai Island disappear into the rumbling cauldron of the external time stream.

   left the lakeside village and headed in that direction.

As they approached the crater, the surrounding environment gradually changed dramatically. The green vegetation decreased, the land became dry and water-deficient, and many sturdy old trees were left with dry trunks... The road to the mountain was twisty. Winding, one side is a steep cliff, which looks shocking.

   The closer to the destination, the more obvious the traces of artificial chiseling.

  The neat corridors opened up in the mountains...

  A huge portal carved out of a single piece of mountain rock...

  A seamless fresco carved on the mountain...

The huge mountain is like an ancient palace inhabited by huge gods. The beauty of primitiveness and art are intertwined and parallel, and the last door is in the front. However, the two of them walked all the way here without encountering any danger, and there is nothing powerful. The guards, and there are no monsters entrenched here, making Gu Mo quite uncomfortable.

   "Strange, the rumbling cauldron is the source of spiritual power on the island. It is impossible for those monsters not to know about it...but they are not close to here..."

  The shrine maiden also felt something was wrong, so she became more cautious, and frowned slightly in thought.

"There must be some danger here that they are afraid of, but I didn't feel any evil energy, and the spiritual power here is very pure, completely different from the last time I came here, the pollution of the Four Dou Gods on the Ringing Cauldron should have already disappeared. Completely cleansed..."

   "Could it be that the cauldron itself has spirituality? Or is it simply Kikyo that you have left behind?"

   Gu Mo thought of the arrow not long ago, and hesitantly made a guess.

   If it is true that you and the shrine maiden will participate in the battle of Penglai Island during the Warring States Period, then with the experience of later generations, you should be able to make some preparations for this situation.

   "I didn't feel anything..." The witch glanced at him lightly.

   "I don't feel it either..."

Gu Mo was a bachelor, and he didn't feel anything, except for the huge portal in front of him that seemed to have cut a gap in the steep rock wall, which seemed to be a huge spiritual power like a hot sun. The source is really nothing.

   Not even a premonition of danger.

   "Let's go and have a look..." Kikyo made up her mind and walked straight to the front door.

Passing through the mountain crack-like corridor that is not too narrow, but it is indeed depressing, the eyes of the two of them are wide and open. It is a space similar to a natural cave in the middle of the mountain, and the moonlight is scattered from the gap above. Come in, dimly illuminating the darkness.

In the middle is a black body, like a huge alchemy furnace made of divine iron. It stands like a hill, and the corners around it are tightly bound by huge iron cables. One end was submerged into the darkness, and it seemed to form a whole with the mountain.

The   dan furnace is dozens of meters high, just looking at it makes people feel a great sense of oppression, which is mentally heavy and overwhelmed...

   In front of the two of them, there is only a slightly narrow road, and below both sides is a bottomless abyss. I don’t know where it leads to the darkness. At the front end of the road, there are spacious stone steps rising up, leading to the top of the pill furnace.

   "Sounding Cauldron..." Gu Mo sighed softly, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

  —this thing...

  ——Is it a special item?

   "You are finally here..."

   At this time, a dull voice sounded, as if feeling relieved.

Immediately after the ground rumbled, the huge pill furnace trembled, and the surface of the pill furnace at the top end of the stone steps cracked to both sides, and the raging flames rushed out from it, like fierce fire dragons, terrifying heat radiation. Going out, Gu Mo could feel the amazing high temperature from a long distance.

   With his physique, at a distance of nearly 100 meters, he immediately felt a feeling of being scalded. If ordinary people were here, it would probably take half a minute to be cooked.

   Just at this moment, Gu Mo subconsciously looked at the witch next to him. The voice just now seemed to be... well, it sounded familiar, he even thought it was the witch talking.

   It's just that Kikyo was obviously stunned.

At this time, a figure appeared on the top of the stone steps. It seemed to come out of the burning pill furnace, but it was not a warm spirit like a flame incarnation, but more like a pure white moonlight. .

She was wearing a valiant swordsman armor, with a cross star headband on her head, her long black hair hung down like a satin behind her, and under the Ji-style bangs, there was a pair of calm water-like cuts. Water eyes... Except for the different costumes, it is clearly the same appearance as Kikyo.

  “…”

  “…”

  The air was quiet for a while...

   The shrine maiden, who was unprepared, seemed to be shocked by this scene.

   "You are..." Gu Mo finally reacted. He opened his mouth first, but his thoughts flashed in his mind, and a sudden light flashed.

   Could it be... Souji? The witch of Penglai Island?
