Chapter 1267 Branding
When he arrived at the center of the valley, Xia Fan's eyes narrowed.
Because I found that there was much less gravel scattered here than outside, this was a rather unreasonable thing.
Judging from Xia Fan's observations along the way, the core of the formation in this valley is located at the center of the valley, and there must be the most intense death energy, corpse energy and yin energy, which will of course attract more lightning to bombard us.
Logically speaking, under the bombardment of hundreds of Big Five Elements Divine Thunders, the central area of the valley was completely razed to the ground, and even a deep pit of more than 100 feet was exploded.
But in fact, this is not the case, which seems very strange.
Especially Xia Fan's intuition told him that Gu Xiaoyun would not die easily, but along the way, his divine thoughts were always paying close attention to the movements in the valley, but he neither saw Gu Xiaoyun running away nor found her traces, which was quite strange.
If she died under the lightning bombardment just now, with her late-stage Grandmaster realm strength, she would not even be able to survive even a trace.
"Be careful, Gu Xiaoyun is not dead and has not gone far." Xia Fan said, reminding him to beep, and he immediately released the fire dragon clone with a thought.
"Hu..." The blazing flames fell from the sky, covering the entire valley like a huge lid.
The fire rain fell down, falling into some places in the valley that made Xia Fan feel suspicious.
"Bang bang..." Under the impact of the flames, many rocks instantly shattered.
"So you are hiding here, come out!" Xia Fanduan shouted, and the fire rain scattered around him suddenly burned towards a huge rock that was thirty or forty feet high.
Before the fire rain arrived, the huge rock had already shattered.
A fiery red figure flew out from it, which was Gu Xiaoyun who had disappeared before. Her hiding place was not the huge rock, but her own corpse bottle.
The corpse raising bottle is a treasure. Although it can absorb corpse energy and nourish corpses, it does not condense much corpse energy, so it will not be attacked by lightning, allowing Gu Xiaoyun, who is hiding in it, to escape a disaster.
"Swish..." Gu Xiaoyun had just flew out and rushed towards Dudu with murderous intent. He waved the skeleton whip and was about to attack.
At this moment, a sharp roar sounded, and golden light fell from the sky and bombarded directly towards Gu Xiaoyun.
It was the fire dragon clone who was in the sky that had been accumulating momentum for a long time that ejaculated out.
When locked by the dazzling golden light shining on the sun magic needle, Gu Xiaoyun couldn't help but be frightened, and a thought rose in his heart, that is, if he was hit by him, he would definitely die.
But now the Sun Divine Needle has flown towards you, and Gu Xiaoyun has no chance to dodge any more. At this time, all she can do is wave the skeleton whip and block it in front of her.
"Bang..." The golden light burst out as the sun magic needle hit the skeleton's long whip, and countless black and green auras burst out from the skeleton. When the golden light shone, it immediately dissipated in countless shrill and desperate screams.
"Crack..." The skeletons cracked and turned into powder that dissipated with the wind.
Under this blow, the skeleton whip in Gu Xiaoyun's hand shattered one after another.
However, the sharp golden light formed by the Sun Divine Needle did not disappear, and the impact momentum did not weaken at all compared to before.
"Puff..." As if a needle was used to pierce the raw cowhide, the Sun Divine Needle had pierced into Gu Xiaoyun's body and instantly broke out, leaving only a brilliant golden light raging in his body.
Gu Xiaoyun practiced the corpse path. He didn't know how thick corpse energy had accumulated in his body. Now he was illuminated by the sun divine light contained in the sun divine needle and was ignited by the sun fire essence, which directly caused the corpse energy to explode in his body.
For a moment, Gu Xiaoyun's body was like a human-shaped lantern, emitting dazzling light from the inside to the outside, and then it started to burn with a loud bang.
"Ah! I don't want to die!" Gu Xiaoyun never thought that he had been practicing the corpse path for a long time. He thought he would be immortal in the end, but recently he was defeated by others.
With great reluctance in his heart, Gu Xiaoyun immediately decided to make a desperate attempt.
Her idea was to give up this body directly and let the soul escape. As long as she escaped the disaster in front of her, she would give up the corpse path and turn to the ghost path.
Although the corpse path and the ghost path are two very different paths, Gu Xiaoyun doesn't care much about life and death.
"Young Master, can I subdue her?" Dudu asked suddenly.
"As long as you want, there is nothing you can't do?" Xia Fan smiled.
Dudu was overjoyed and said, "Don't resist, I'll save you."
Before she finished speaking, her corpse foil had already flew out, and the light shone like a waterfall, covering the valley clouds.
At the same time, Xia Fan's very cooperative pinching technique temporarily suppressed the sun divine light and sun fire spirit that were raging wildly in Gu Xiaoyun's body.
These two powerful forces come from the Sun Divine Needle and are naturally controlled by Xia Fan. Otherwise, if they can be released but not retracted, then what kind of magic weapon is there?
Gu Xiaoyun heard Dudu's words, but hesitated.
Of course she didn't want to die, but she was very hesitant whether she should live with a humble state.
She knew very well that if she was taken away by Dudu’s corpse, she would be refined. Although her life was unhindered and even her soul could be preserved, she would become her slave in the future and would be irresistible.
This is the tyranny of the corpse raising bottle. As long as it is put into it, it seems to be branded and it is difficult to get rid of it.
"What should I do?" Gu Xiaoyun had countless thoughts flashing in his mind, and in the end, driven by the desire to survive, he decided to give up resistance and choose to surrender.
Because Gu Xiaoyun knew very well that even if he gave up his body, the possibility of success of being able to escape the soul was not high, and even if she could succeed, the other party might not let him go.
If there is no way out, Gu Xiaoyun can naturally make a decision. But now there is another way to go, so why should she risk her death and disappear?
When Gu Xiaoyun gave up his resistance and was shrouded in the light from the corpse, the sun divine light and sun fire spirit that were originally raging in her body also flew away from her wounds and re-entered into the sun divine needle.
Seeing this, Gu Xiaoyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Gu Xiaoyun did not resist, because she was quite strong, it was not so easy for Dudu, who was slightly inferior to her, to take him away with a corpse bottle.
It's like a half-old child trying to pull an adult away. Even if the latter doesn't deliberately resist, his weight can make the child who wants to pull him away half-tired.
Xia Fan narrowed his eyes and looked at Dudu constantly pinching the magic tricks, urging the corpse raising bottle, trying his best to take Gu Xiaoyun away. Although he was anxious for her, he had no intention of helping.
First of all, some things need to be done by yourself to benefit from them. If others help, it will not have such good results.
Secondly, Xia Fan had never used the corpse bottle before and did not know how to use it. He didn't know much about it as Dudu, so there was no need to intervene again.
Although the process was a bit slow and difficult, Gu Xiaoyun was eventually put into the corpse foil by Dudu.
This is not a great achievement, but just the beginning, because the corpse placed in the corpse foil requires continuous sacrifice and refining. In general, the process is so complicated that it is far worse than refining weapons.
When raising corpses, most people must first look for some weak corpses to practice, and then try to capture more powerful corpses after they have achieved success.
However, Dudu almost omitted the previous step-by-step process and directly captured Gu Xiaoyun, who had the late-stage power of the Grandmaster Realm.
Although Dudu may not be able to sacrifice and refine it with the powerful power of the corpse bottle, the time and energy it will take will definitely be quite large.
Fortunately, Gu Xiaoyun seemed to have completely accepted her fate. She was in the corpse foil and did not resist Dudu's sacrifice and refining, which made Dudu feel a little more worry-free.
Xia Fan looked at Dudu's concentrating sacrifice to Gu Xiaoyun, but did not urge her too much, but instead stayed near her to protect her.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days passed. Because there are clouds in the underworld, it is difficult for the sun to fall, even the changes in day and night are not so obvious. Xia Fan could only silently estimate the time in his mind.
Dudu, who had been concentrating on urging the corpse raising bottle to sacrifice Gu Xiaoyun, breathed a long sigh, stood up and looked at Xia Fan, showing a bright smile on his face.
"Young Master, I finally left a mark on her." Dudu said with joy: "Although this is just the first step and there are still many things to do in the future, with this mark, she will no longer betray me."
"That's good." Xia Fan nodded and said, "Can you release her? I have something to ask her."
Dudu nodded, sacrificed the corpse bottle and released Gu Xiaoyun.
"Greetings to Master." Although Gu Xiaoyun was as cold as before, he was not short of etiquette. He bowed to Dudu, very respectfully.
However, Gu Xiaoyun seemed to have not seen Xia Fan. Not to mention saying hello, he didn't even look at him.
Xia Fan wouldn't care about anything with her because of this, he still has this measure. As long as Gu Xiaoyun honestly serves Dudu, even if she is more rebellious in front of him, he won't care.
"My young master has something to ask you, don't hide it, and answer it well." Dudu couldn't help but frown when he saw Gu Xiaoyun like this.
"Please ask." Gu Xiaoyun looked at Xia Fan at this time and said coldly.
"With your strength, is it the strongest in this underworld world?" Xia Fan asked. If he wanted to keep Dudu, he would have to get the situation here first. Otherwise, if strong enemies were everywhere, how could Xia Fan feel at ease to leave Dudu here?
"Not count." Gu Xiaoyun thought for a while, shook his head and said, "There are many more powerful than me."
When Xia Fan heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
Gu Xiaoyun has the strength of the late-stage Grandmaster realm, and is already quite powerful. If there is someone stronger than her, could she still be the Dao Realm?
"This is impossible!" Xia Fan denied this idea in his heart. Although the underworld is very large, it cannot be compared with the human world. Since the human world cannot accommodate the existence of the Dao Assassin Realm, it is absolutely impossible for a strong man from the Dao Assin Realm to be present.
