Chapter 153: Bait
"Big brother Xuanyuan, you have to help Mochou catch that big-eyed bastard. You have to avenge her." Mochou looked fierce, but not fierce at all. Instead, she looked even more mischievous.
"Hahaha, I will. Don't worry." Xuanyuan laughed and ran even faster with Mochou in his arms.
"Xuanyuan, there's something I want to tell you." The Greedy Old Man's voice came from Xuanyuan's mind.
"What is it?" Xuanyuan was confused.
"The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus is very smart. I'm afraid it's impossible to catch it in the Red Lotus Palace. We might even be wiped out." The Greedy Old Man paused for a second and continued, "Just think about it.
The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus is in Red Mountain. Red Mountain is so close to Sengoku. There are so many geniuses in such a big palace. But why hasn't anyone found the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus? The only explanation was that the spirituality of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire was at least on par with the Azure Sky Water! It's very difficult to get it! "
"Just tell me what you want to say." Xuanyuan felt uneasy.
"There's only one way to get the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus, and it might not be able to lure it out. It all depends on luck." The Greedy Old Man said slowly.
"That is to use Mochou as bait. The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus must have sensed that Mochou has the Thousand Spirit Body and is a target to possess. This is too tempting for the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus, so this is the only way to lure it out."
"No, Mochou is just a kid. I can't let her risk her life for me!" Xuanyuan rejected the Greedy Old Man's suggestion.
"If you don't devour the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, do you think you can defeat Jiang Yitian in three years? Natural Spirit Treasures are very important to your future growth. Make up your mind. You can't gain without giving up. Plus, Mochou has the Thousand Spirit Body. I wouldn't let you do this if you weren't confident, "said Greed.
"In You Yunlong's ring, there is a set of supreme Earth items called the Wintry Set. The Wintry Silk Hand, the Wintry Armor, the Wintry Helmet, the Wintry Boots, and the Wintry Jade Pendant can activate the Wintry Restriction, which will help you subdue the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. Plus, if you use the Azure Sky Water to activate the Wintry Restriction, it will multiply its power."
"You can stay with Mochou from the beginning because you're not strong enough. The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus can sense you, but he can't. The only thing I need to be careful of is that there's a Fire Immortal watching from the side. I might be exposed at a critical moment, so it's better to have him here."
"Even so, it's not safe for Mochou. What if she gets possessed by the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus?" retorted Xuanyuan.
"You can use the nine hundred kilograms of Celestial Ice Crystals and nine kilograms of Celestial Ice Source to set up the Nine Dragons Heaven Lock Momentum. This terrain will only be activated when the target enters the terrain. Using the Celestial Ice Crystals and Celestial Ice Source to set up the Nine Dragons Heaven Lock Momentum might be a little difficult, but it will greatly suppress the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. Now that everything is ready, all we need to do is wait for your decision. Don't forget that you still have the Azure Heavenly Water."
Xuanyuan was a little hesitant,
"Even so, I can't gamble with Mochou's life."
"Actually, Xuanyuan, don't let your heart hold you back. Worry too much. Believe in yourself. You've prepared so much for this day. As long as you're confident that you won't hurt Mochou, it'll be fine. Besides, Mochou is practicing the Thousand Spirits Deity Protection Art. It won't be easy for the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus to possess her. Think about it. Once you've made up your mind, think of a way to distract the Fire Immortal and let Mochou be the bait. Then, it'll be a long battle of patience. Let's see how long the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus can endure," said the Greedy Old Man.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the top of Red Mountain. There was a strong heat wave coming from the mouth of the mountain. The sound of boiling lava could be heard.
"Wait." The Fire Immortal suddenly said.
"What is it, Master Huo?" Master Huo? "Xuanyuan stopped and looked at the Fire Immortal.
"The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus is smarter than we thought. We shouldn't peek at it anymore. It's enough that we know it exists. What we need to do now is to lure it out," the old man said solemnly.
"Oh? Master Huo, do you have a way to lure the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus out? "Xuanyuan's eyes lit up. It would be best if there was a way that wouldn't hurt Mochou.
"Yes. First, if there's a weaker fighting fire, the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus will come out and devour it to strengthen itself. Obviously, you don't." The Fire Immortal looked at Xuanyuan.
"What else?"
"Second, if there's a body that can allow it to reincarnate, like Mochou's Thousand Spirits Body. Nothing in the world can resist the temptation of the Thousand Spirits Body." The Fire Immortal looked at Mochou and said calmly, "Let Mochou be the bait.
"Let Mochou be the bait. Of course, before that, we must be fully prepared."
The Greedy Old Man was cold-blooded, so he didn't care about such things. He had always taught Xuanyuan that he was the only one who mattered. Xuanyuan wasn't surprised that the Fire Immortal would use Mochou as bait. Xuanyuan didn't expect the Fire Immortal to come up with such an idea. It seemed like this was the only way.
"I've already said it, now it's up to you." The Greedy Old Man didn't rush Xuanyuan this time. He understood how Xuanyuan felt.
Xuanyuan closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something. At that moment, the Fire Immortal looked at Mochou and asked:
"Mochou, are you willing to be the bait and help Big Brother Xuanyuan catch that big-eyed bad guy?"
"Mochou is willing. Mochou believes that Big Brother Xuanyuan can catch that big-eyed bad guy and avenge me." Little Mo Chou pouted and puffed up her cheeks. It seemed like she was embarrassed by the pair of eyes formed by the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. She wanted to get revenge for that.
"Xuanyuan, even Mochou believes in you. Don't you believe in yourself? Only when you believe in yourself can you protect others. You didn't believe in yourself, so you didn't bring Gu Xing to Sengoku. You left it at the Gate of Moonlight, but it still died. Don't you understand? If you have the power, you can protect everything. If you don't, no matter how careful you are, what's the use? "The Greedy Old Man said calmly.
Xuanyuan took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. He squatted down and smiled at Mochou:
"Mochou, no matter what, Big Brother Xuanyuan will be by your side to protect you. Don't be afraid, I will catch that big-eyed bad guy."
"Okay, Mochou was scared to tears by that big-eyed bad guy. It's so embarrassing!" Mochou was a little embarrassed. She asked, "Mochou, what should I do to lure it out?"
"Let's wait for a while. Let me prepare everything, then we can lure it out." Xuanyuan smiled and looked at the Fire Immortal. He asked, "What's your plan, Master Huo? Where should we set up the trap? "
"Right here!" The Fire Immortal pointed at the flat ground in front of them and said slowly, "In the Red Lotus Immortal Palace, there might be a Restriction Spell that is beneficial to the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. It's very dangerous. Don't walk right into the trap! We're less than a mile away from the entrance. Once Mochou starts cultivating, she'll be able to absorb all the fire element spiritual Qi within ten miles. When that happens, she'll attract the attacks of all kinds of spiritual Qi. The fire dragon immortal pill I concocted for you was a Fire Dragon Empress Herb. I couldn't resist the temptation so I took it. "
Xuanyuan nodded and made up his mind.
"Alright, let's start after I set up the formation."
With that, Xuanyuan took out a piece of Heaven Ice Crystal and used the Azure Sky Water to carve the Nine Dragons Heaven Formation on it. Every time he carves a pattern, it would consume a lot of Xuanyuan's Combat Qi. However, the Nine Dragons Heaven Formation was an immortal level formation. It was impossible for Xuanyuan to carve an immortal level formation without external help. The most he could do was to carve an imperial-level formation. Even with the power of the Azure Sky Water, he could only carve an imperial-level formation. With Xuanyuan's current strength, he couldn't use water to its fullest potential.
"Good lad, I didn't expect you to have something like the Heaven Ice Crystal on you that is as pure as Fighting Source. If you use this to carve a formation, it will be no small matter. By borrowing the strength of the formation and your Azure Sky Water, it will greatly restrain the Red Lotus Hellfire. I didn't expect you to have even calculated this step." Old Huo could not help but sigh in admiration.
"I was just lucky."
Xuanyuan knew that he no longer had any time to waste.
Xuanyuan took out five thousand kilograms of supreme grade Fighting Crystals from You Yunlong's Fighting Ring and piled them up beside him so that he could absorb the Fighting Energy of Heaven and Earth and replenish it at any time.
There were far more supreme grade Fighting Crystals in You Yunlong's Fighting Ring. This was just the tip of the iceberg.
The carving of the pattern did not stop for even a moment. Every time Xuanyuan carved a pattern of the Nine Dragons Heaven Formation, the Fighting Energy of Heaven and Earth emitted by the supreme grade Fighting Crystals would be absorbed by Xuanyuan.
Time passed bit by bit. One piece, two pieces, three pieces …
Four days had passed. The supreme grade Fighting Crystals beside Xuanyuan had exploded into crystal powder. There were only one thousand kilograms of supreme grade Fighting Crystals left. Xuanyuan had also carved the Nine Dragons Heaven Sealing Pattern on all nine pieces of Heaven Ice Crystals.
Everything went as Xuanyuan had expected. Based on his understanding of the true Nine Dragons Lock of the Heavens, the power it emitted was even greater after he changed the details of the patterns.
"This! This is the Nine Dragons Heaven Sealing Pattern! It seems that I have accepted an extraordinary disciple! Even in Sengoku, there are not many people who can carve out an immortal formation like the Nine Dragons Heaven Sealing Pattern. I didn't expect Xuanyuan to be able to carve out such a formation at such a young age. He is simply a rare young genius. Perhaps he will be able to defeat Jiang Yitian in three years' time! " Old Man Huo watched all this with his own eyes. He felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. It was an indescribable excitement, but it was more of a gratification that came from the bottom of his heart.
Xuanyuan began to carve intricate terrains on top of the energy source with the Qi derived from the water of Azure Heavens.
This time, each carving consumed even more of Xuanyuan's Qi. If it wasn't for the endless supply of supreme grade Fighting Crystals for Xuanyuan to absorb, it would have taken him at least a month to carve out the Nine Dragons Heaven Sealing Pattern.
Xuanyuan was sweating profusely as he drew the patterns. His face was filled with exhaustion. Mochou felt sorry for him.
"Big brother Xuanyuan, do you want to take a break? Carving the patterns is so tiring and tiring. I don't want you to help me catch that big-eyed bad guy anymore. I don't want to vent my anger anymore. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. Big brother has to work so hard …"
Little Mochou sounded like she was about to cry. Her words were filled with self-blame. Xuanyuan smiled bitterly. There was an indescribable bitterness in his heart. In fact, it was mostly because he wanted to devour the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus to increase his strength. In exchange for Little Mochou's attitude, Xuanyuan felt guilty.
"Little Mochou, what's done is done. It's time to finish it. Big brother wants to catch that big-eyed bad guy not only to help you vent your anger, but also because he needs it. That way, he can become more powerful. So don't cry, Little Mochou." Xuanyuan's voice was gentle and soothing, but Little Mochou still looked a little sad.
"Alright …"
"The five of us have lived for a long time. It's a great fortune to have a disciple like him. He has a conscience, he has talent, and he has willpower. Where else can we find a disciple like him? Jiang Yitian is nothing compared to Xuanyuan! " Fire Immortal looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was even more determined to train Xuanyuan.
In just one day, Xuanyuan had absorbed all the fighting energy from two thousand kilograms of supreme grade crystals. The crystals exploded into powder. Xuanyuan took out another two thousand kilograms of supreme grade crystals and continued carving. The consumption of fighting energy was shocking.
Finally, after a day, the Nine Dragons Heaven Locking Momentum pattern was completely inscribed on the Heaven Ice Dou Source.
The moment he finished, Xuanyuan felt an indescribable exhaustion in his heart. However, Xuanyuan calmed himself down and looked around. He placed the Heaven Ice Dou Crystals one by one, then put on the Freezing Sky Set. He put the last piece of Heaven Ice Source on his Freezing Sky Set. Everything was interlinked and connected!
"Everything is ready. I'll rest for a day and let me adjust to my best condition. Then, we'll begin!" Xuanyuan sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes. Then, he went silent.
