Chapter 197 Taking the tripod

After confirming the Xutian Cauldron, Ye Ming did not start to take the cauldron. Instead, he walked down from the altar and walked slowly to the platform below.

He stared at the stone slab on the ground without blinking, and his feet rubbed against the stone slab from time to time, as if he was looking for something.

Ye Ming, who was familiar with this plot, knew that Wan Tianming kept a fossil beast, and wondered whether it was arranged here.

As the name suggests, fossil beasts can transform into ordinary stone. This beast has a very strong hiding ability. After it is turned into stone, it is completely like a dead thing. No matter how powerful your consciousness is, you will not be able to discover it.

Ye Ming now just wants to see if he can find this possible beast.

After drinking some tea, Ye Ming suddenly discovered something strange on a certain stone slab.

This stone slab looks no different from the others at first glance, but it feels different when you touch it with your hands.

Then he pressed the stone slab with his palm and shook slightly.

Suddenly there was a flash of white light, and a small blue beast the size of a mouse sprang out from the cracks in the stone slabs. As soon as the beast appeared, it squeaked and tried to run away.

But since it had been forced out, how could it escape? Ye Ming stretched out his hand and fished it out like lightning, grabbing it in the palm of his hand.

"Yes, it is indeed a fossil beast!" After Ye Ming nodded, he raised his hand and set up a simple isolation restriction in this small place.

After throwing the fossil beast into the restriction, he ignored him.

At the same moment when Ye Ming imprisoned the fossil beast, somewhere on the third floor of the inner hall, Wan Tianming frowned and looked suspicious.

"Fellow Taoist Wan, what happened?" Tian Wuzi on the side noticed something was wrong.

"My backhand at Hanli Terrace suddenly lost contact!" Wan Tianming looked behind him.

"Is it Manbeard and the others? No wonder they left in a hurry after they came out. It turned out that they wanted to get rid of us and then kill us. Could it be that they have other powerful methods to get the treasure?" The old farmer also spoke.

"Who else could it be if they weren't? The only ones who entered the inner hall were Manbeard and the others! The people in the demonic path are so cunning that they deliberately joined forces with us, and then pretended that they failed to retrieve the treasure, and then they went back and swallowed the treasure for themselves." Said fiercely.

However, Wan Tianming frowned and thought about all the possibilities before saying, "Besides a few of us, there is another person who also entered the inner hall."

"You mean that boy who is in the pill formation stage!"

"Impossible, he's just a junior at the core formation stage. How could he find out what you were doing there? I wonder if it's the two old guys from the Star Palace." The old farmer looked unbelieving.

"Didn't those two old guys come in?" Tian Wuzi asked doubtfully.

"Brother Tianwu, have you forgotten the changes in the Ice and Fire Dao? Since they can control such a powerful restriction, it is not impossible to come here without passing through the teleportation array." The old farmer analyzed.

"Brother Liu is right, but Manbeard and the others can't rule it out. No matter who it is, we have to hurry over and see what this person is doing inside." Wan Tianming finally said.

Then the three of them rushed towards the fifth floor.

……

Ye Ming didn't know whether imprisoning the fossil beast would arouse Wan Tianming's vigilance. But he knew that if there was any movement here, even if the fossil beast was not imprisoned, the beast would pass the news of the changes here to Wan Tianming through special induction.

Therefore, he did this without hesitation and decided to take out the Xutian Palace as soon as possible.

He came to the altar again, patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, and a white light flashed, and two blood jade spiders several feet in size appeared on the stage.

After thirty years of practice under Ye Ming's continuous feeding of Golden Blood Pills, these two spiders have reached level six. They have grown in size, with their fangs exposed, and have become more ferocious.

After giving a command to the spiders in his mind, they saw their limbs flicking and jumping to the side, one on the left and one on the right standing opposite each other across the big blue hole.

"Pull up the things below!" Ye Ming pointed at the entrance of the cave and ordered.

The two spiders understood and opened their mouths at the same time, spraying out a ball of white liquid from each mouth. The liquid swelled in the wind, stretched into silk, and woven into a spider web in the blink of an eye.

Immediately, the spiders threw the webs into the hole, and used the spider silk connected to their mouths to control the webs to descend rapidly.

After a moment, with two "pops", two spider webs covered the blue flame one after another, and then tightly wrapped the Xutian Cauldron inside.

Seeing that the spider web was unscathed by the flames, the strange cold power of the dry blue ice flame had no effect on it at all.

Then, the huge eyes of the two blood jade spiders rolled around, and the translucent milky white filaments in their mouths slowly tightened and began to shrink back. But the spider itself stood motionless. There was a muffled "rumbling" sound, and the entire high platform began to shake. The blue light in the cave also flickered, and the strange cold power emanating from inside suddenly increased, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of blue ice crystals was covered near the entrance of the cave.

As the Blood Jade Spider exerted its strength, the Xutian Cauldron was barely able to sway, and with a "boom", it was hung up steadily.

As soon as the cauldron was lifted, a dazzling blue light suddenly burst out from the hole, rushing straight out to a height of more than ten feet above the altar.

At the same time, a stronger cold current spread to the surrounding areas.

With a strong body, these cold currents did not have much impact on Ye Ming. He stared at the entrance of the cave expressionlessly.

Since the blood jade spider's cultivation has reached level six, its ability is many times more powerful than when it was level four.

Therefore, the process of obtaining treasures that was extremely difficult in the original time and space seemed extremely easy in Ye Ming's case.

Soon, the cauldron was pulled out of the cave.

But before he could see the appearance of the Xutian Cauldron, a group of blue flames erupted from the entrance of the cave. With a "boom", a large blue ice flower bloomed with brilliant brilliance, turning the entire high platform into a world of blue ice crystals. , an extreme chill swept across the entire altar, making Ye Ming's clothes rustle.

After a while, the light dimmed slightly, and Ye Ming finally saw the true face of Xutian Cauldron.

The tripod as a whole looks oblate, with two ears and three legs, about four feet high and about ten feet in diameter. The cover at the top is slightly raised and round. It is surrounded by various relief sculptures of insects, fish, animals, landscapes and trees. It looks lifelike.

No need to get close, a wild and ancient aura rushes towards you.

As soon as the cauldron emerged from the cave entrance, it made a slight buzzing sound, and the sound became louder and louder.

At the same time, the dry blue ice flames surrounding the cauldron also "hooked, huffed" a few times, rising and becoming several times larger.

Suddenly, a light blue light shone down, completely freezing the entire space of more than ten feet around the altar.

Except for the dry blue ice flames at the entrance of the cave that were still slowly swaying, everything else seemed like a huge blue ice coffin, completely solidified.

As soon as the blue flames erupted, Ye Ming moved and flew into the air to closely watch the changes below.

The blood jade spider jumped off the altar just before the blue ice covered it. The extreme cold had little effect on them, and they still pulled on the spider webs tightly, making the Xutian Temple stay firmly in the air.

……

At the same moment, in a hidden dark corner, a blue light suddenly lit up, which was wrapped in a round bronze mirror. A tripod-shaped object was flashing on the mirror.

"Eh? This is... someone has shaken the Xutian Cauldron. Look at the intensity of the fluctuations, which is far greater than the time Wan Tianming retrieved the treasure two days ago!" A familiar voice suddenly rang. It was the kind-hearted old man from Xinggong who was speaking. .

"Without further delay, let's go over and have a look!" Elder Li said in a deep voice.

"go!"

……

Looking at the huge "ice coffin" in front of him, Ye Ming grabbed it with one hand and took out the shock gun.

Immediately, he fell down at a very fast speed, holding the spear tightly with both hands, and aimed a hard blow at the ice coffin.

"Boom..." There was a loud noise.

Under the dual effects of the mountain-like weight of the Shocking Gun and Ye Ming's astonishing strength, the blue ice cubes made a "click" sound, and many cracks appeared.

This crack centered on the point of contact between the spear tip and the blue ice, and spread irregularly to the surroundings, like a randomly woven spider web.

Ye Ming's eyes lit up, he picked up the spear and swung it down again...

"Boom, boom, boom" a few times, the ice was split open, and a passage several feet long was opened, leading directly to the dry blue ice flame.
