fairy cage

Chapter 257
In front of the skull palace, the laughter continued.

Yu Lie tried all the simple methods he could think of, and tried them all in front of the palace, but he couldn't break the golden light at the entrance of the palace.

The old woman knelt on the ground, and the sarcasm in her mouth became more and more mean:

"Despicable stranger, this is not a place for you to come here to be presumptuous."

Yu Lie still ignored the old woman. He squinted at the skull in the palace, and said to himself, "Could it be that I can only go in and try it myself?"

Just now, under Yu Lie's order, the soul-guarding girl tried to go in instead of Yu Lie, but she also walked to the door and was blocked from the door, unable to enter.

However, Yu Lie still had no intention of finding out for himself.

The more the old woman let him go in, the more likely it was that there was a fraud.

And the reason why this piece of golden skull is still here and not taken away by other Taoists is probably because once it enters the palace, there will be unexpected disadvantages.

In this way, those Taoist officials and even Taoist priests did not do anything to the skull fragments, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't or it wasn't worth it.

The old woman kept urging: "Foreigners, go in, go in!"

Suddenly, Yu Lie withdrew his gaze from looking at the skull palace, and he took the time to look at the old woman in front of him.

Since it is impossible to rely on brute force to break through the barrier of the palace, Yu Lie can only start from other aspects to see if he can find out the clues.And the old woman who has been nagging in his ear is obviously a good breakthrough.

However, judging from the other party's attitude, it is basically impossible for Yu Lie to speak nicely to the other party.

So his body flashed, and suddenly appeared next to the old woman, and grabbed the other woman's body fiercely!
When attacking the Skull Palace just now, Yu Lie had actually been watching the old woman's movements, wanting to see what strength the opponent had.

As a result, even though the sword was placed on the opponent's neck, this person still looked like he was flattered or humiliated.The opponent didn't show any strength from the beginning to the end, and he seemed powerless.

"Heck!" A strange voice appeared on the old woman's neck, and the sneer in her mouth stopped immediately, and her body also changed from a kneeling state to a suspended state, and she struggled.

It was Yu Lie who stood in front of the opponent, grasping with his fingers, and an invisible force swept over the old woman's neck, pinched her tightly, and directly lifted the opponent from the ground.

Pain appeared on the old woman's face. Apart from being speechless, she also felt a steel knife-like wind blowing around her body, making her feel pain all over her body.

But the more painful the expression on her face, the more excited the emotion in her eyes.

The old woman stared at Yu Lie with her eyes wide open.

Yu Lie and the other party looked directly at each other, frowned and said, "Quickly tell me, how can you touch the bone fragment without going inside?"

"Hey," Yu Lie slightly loosened the old woman's neck, and the other party immediately coughed violently:
"Cough, haha! A foreigner, if he doesn't enter the king's altar, how can he meet the king?"

The old woman was quite stubborn, and Yu Lie asked her several times intimidatingly, but all the answers from the other party were ridicule and sarcasm.

And because this beast is an undead person or an old soul girl, she is no longer a living creature. Her body looks plump, but it is actually full of rotting flesh and blood, so she is not afraid of other physical threats at all.

So Yu Lie's eyes flashed coldly, and he held the wooden sword in his hand and swiped it sharply.

Click!

A headless corpse immediately fell to the ground, causing the expression on the old woman's face to freeze.

Her hair was caught upwards, and her cloak fell off, revealing her entire face.His eyes were cloudy and yellow, and the upper part of his face was extremely withered, just like his old age.

Half of this man's face is plump, half of his face is haggard, half human and half dead. Yu Lie's frightening appearance appeared in Yu Lie's eyes, making Yu Lie raise his eyebrows slightly.

The old woman's face was completely exposed, and she suddenly stopped being sarcasm, but cursed Yu Lie viciously:

"Ah! Despicable bug, you will die, you will die!"

Seeing the other party's mood swings, Yu Lie became interested instead. He held the other party's head falsely, and continued to speak lightly:
"Cooperate well with me, and I will connect your head and torso. If you don't want to, your head will fall on the body of a rotten dog, with maggots as companions."

When the old woman heard this threat, the sneer on her face became even more extreme:
"Hahaha! Stranger, you can give it a try."

Suddenly, as the other party's words fell, Yu Lie's eyelids twitched.

I saw the old woman's headless corpse that fell on the ground suddenly burst into flames, and turned into ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye, floating around.

As for the old woman's head held by Yu Liexu, there were cracks on her half-human, half-corpse face, and a flame burst out from her two eyeballs, and the whole head was like a ball of paper burning. Fade and also become fly ash.

In the blink of an eye, there was only a group of pale golden flames left, suspended in mid-air, beating endlessly.

This is the soul of the old woman!
The origin of this old woman is really good. After her body was burned to ashes, she had a special soul. Yu Lie immediately wanted to use spells or true energy to restrain her, but it was as if the soul did not exist and could not be captured.

But the screaming voice from the other party was still loud: "Stranger, stranger!"

The old woman's soul drifted away and landed on a bright red lamp post in front of the palace. This lamp post seemed to symbolize the territory of Hongyan City.She was about to melt into it and disappear in an instant.

The other party's triumphant laughter sounded: "If you want to be blessed without meeting the king, unless you, like me, also have the blood of the first king's soul-hunting girl, and the grace is strong, and the dragon flame is strong..."

Halfway through the conversation, the old woman's voice stopped abruptly.

Because she was about to withdraw from the bright red lamp post, her soul body was suddenly fixed, and a force of attraction fell on her, trying to pull her over.

"You, this is!" A scream sounded from the old woman's soul.

In front of the lamp post, Yu Lie was holding a lotus-like white bone in his hand, leaning towards the opponent's soul, making the white bone lotus shine brightly and releasing an invisible force.

It was this invisible force that held the old woman's soul in place!
This thing is exactly the bone pill furnace made by Yu Lie. The pill furnace is smelted from the skulls of undead creatures in the Longting world, and it is best at capturing souls.

Yu Lie saw that his zhenqi and magic spells could not hold the opponent, so he quickly took out the pill furnace.

In the end, he was not disappointed, the old woman who pretended to be a ghost landed in front of the pill furnace, and she was about to suffer disaster like a mouse bumping into a cat.

After being imprisoned by the pill furnace, the old woman screamed and was about to struggle, and continued to float away.

But when a flame flickered in the pill furnace, the old woman's soul screamed even more. Not only could she not escape, but she threw herself into the bone pill furnace and plunged headlong into it.

What subdued her was not only the absorbing effect of the white bone pill furnace, but also the crazy dragon flame burning in the color of the pill furnace.

As soon as the old woman's soul body entered the dragon flame, Yu Lie found that the dragon flame in his hand jumped up suddenly, as if he had caught something great.

The other party's soul body also slowly dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the luster was sucked away by the crazy dragon flame in the pill furnace.

Such a scene is faster than the usual undead soul falling into the pill furnace, just like the lamp oil specially prepared by the old woman for the crazy dragon flame, it can be absorbed without grinding and pressing.

"Impossible, impossible!" A frantic scream sounded in Yu Lie's pill furnace.

A human face emerged from the flames of the other party's devoured soul, distorted and painful.

The old woman screamed: "Why is there dragon flame in your hand, why is it so pure, heresy, demon, ah!"

Hearing the other party's painful scream, Yu Lie suddenly felt that he had grasped the other party's life. He suppressed his mood and asked the other party calmly:

"How, can you explain my doubts for me now?"

But the old woman didn't have time to respond to him at all, because the soul of the other party fell into the pill furnace, like two flames on a wick, which were indistinguishable from the dragon flame in the pill furnace.

"Save me, save me!"

A terrified cry sounded from the pill furnace, and the dim speed of the old woman's soul fire suddenly accelerated, which caught Yu Lie off guard for a while.

So Yu Lie immediately wanted to take the initiative to suppress the crazy dragon flame in the pill furnace, and separate the soul fire of the old woman.

But what he didn't expect was that even in the pill furnace, Long Yan seemed to be crazy at the moment, crazily absorbing the flame of the old woman's soul, while Yu Lie gathered his spirit and used his true energy to suppress it. It can only act as a delay.

And as the old woman's soul flame was sucked, the crazy dragon flame in the pill furnace also became golden and bright at an unprecedented speed, and doubled as vigorously!
"Ah!"

Amidst the screams, Yu Lie hurriedly asked the old woman what was going on and how he could save her.

As a result, the old woman was already burnt out of her senses, and she could only scream: "God, save me, save me..."

Suddenly, there was a snap.

The opponent's soul was shattered suddenly in the pill furnace, and completely melted in the mad dragon flame, leaving only a blue smoke floating out.

In an instant, the palace was completely quiet.

From the time when the old woman's soul was immobilized to completely melted, the process took less than [-] breaths, which caught Yu Lie by surprise.

But things have already happened, and it is irreversible, Yu Lie can only frown, thinking about the scene just now.

Recalling that the soul of the old woman was in a flame state, and was absorbed by the mad dragon flame at an extremely fast speed, Yu Lie secretly thought in his heart:
"Could it be that this person's soul is a mad dragon flame?"

Looking at the dragon flame shining brightly in the alchemy furnace, Yu Lie realized that this guess was very possible.

Indeed, as Yu Lie guessed, the old woman here has inherited the souls of the tomb guards in the past generations of Hongyan City. From generation to generation, their souls have already been superimposed into the state of dragon flames, which is the most pure, so even if it is Even with a dead body, he can easily do heavy work without forgetting his mission.

So when Yu Lie controlled the opponent's body, the old woman was not afraid at all.

But what the other party never expected was that Yu Lie also had the dragon flame in his hand, and the texture of the dragon flame was very pure. When the two touched each other, the soul of the other party would be devoured by the dragon flame actively. It is even faster to devour ordinary souls.

Yu Lie stood in front of the skull palace, thinking about everything he had just discovered.

Although the clue of being alive was broken, he keenly caught some clues revealed by the old woman's mouth.

"The blood of the first king, the soul-hunting girl, the dragon flame... With these two, can you pry the king's skull?"

Yu Lie's eyes flickered, he looked at the alchemy stove in his hand, and immediately made a decision to let his own soul-hunting girl hold the alchemy stove in her hand, and then walked into the palace.

The girl who held the soul was quite obedient, and turned around holding the pill furnace without blinking her eyes.

When he came to the front of the palace, golden light filled the body of the soul-holding girl, rippling like water waves, the scene was really different from before, as if the next moment, the soul-holding girl could step into it.

But to Yu Lie's disappointment, the girl who detained the soul just grabbed her finger an inch, and her face showed pain, and the flames in her eyes were also beating.

Hum, the golden light is shaking!

The bone armor made by Yu Lie on the girl's body was turned into ashes with a clatter, and fell on the spot, exposing a smooth and white body.

Such a scene was more dangerous than the previous attempt, and Yu Lie quickly stopped the soul-clamping girl who continued to move forward.

Go to the front of the soul arresting girl.

Yu Lie looked at the ashes on the ground in horror, and secretly said happily: "Fortunately, I didn't listen to that old guy fooling around. This golden light is very sharp. If I go straight in, wouldn't my life and death be controlled by this thing."

However, the current situation did not completely dispel Yu Lie's idea of ​​finding out.

His eyes moved, and once again landed on the body of his own soul-detaining girl.

Yu Lie's heart moved: "The old woman's blood and dragon flames are indispensable. Does it mean that her soul must be condensed into dragon flames before she can enter?"

In the world of Longting, the dragon flame is a symbol of the grace of the gods, and according to the revelation of the ghost and god surnamed Du in the dark castle, this thing is indeed faintly linked to the will of the world, just like the dragon spirit of the mountain and sea world.

Therefore, the stronger the dragon flame in the eyes of undead creatures, the more golden its color, the higher its status and strength.

And the soul-holding girl in Yu Lie's hand, although he picked it up from the hand of the eldest daughter of the high priest halfway, seems to have a good background, but the flame in his eyes is not strong enough to match the dragon flame in the alchemy furnace Even the soul fire of the old woman just now can't compare.

Yu Lie thought about it: "Why don't you just plant the dragon flame in the furnace into her eyes and try it out?"

This is not because Yu Lie was thinking about it, but because the soul-detaining girl was holding the pill furnace. Her soul did not waver because of the protection of her body. Quite eccentric.

Yu Lie had never noticed this scene before.

Because he has never let outsiders touch Longyan, he often throws the soul of the enemy into it to refine it.And besides the ghost and god with the surname Du, the soul-hunting girl is the first one who can get close to Longyan with all her beard and tail!
