Chapter 42 Procrastination
Deng Xi said, "Not long ago, Deng Xi met the Lord before the main hall of Qiankun. I remember that the Lord said at that time that I should leave some strength at the cave comparison meeting and said that there was something else behind. At that time, I didn't know that it was the Lord, but I forgot it. Now in retrospect, I'm a little curious. I don't know what the Lord is referring to?
"So that's what you want to ask." The Lord of Qiankun suddenly said, "But don't you already know?"
"Do you know?" After Deng Xi was slightly stunned, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Does the lord mean the death of the earth?"
The owner of Qiankun Hall nod and said, "Yes, you guessed right. In fact, I attach the most importance to talents. I have heard about you fighting against Xu Shao for a long time. At that time, I concluded that you are talented and not those mediocre people. So I told Li Shanqing to pay more attention to you. I didn't expect you to go down to the universe cave soon, and as soon as you come back, your skills have improved so much. I'm more interested in you. That's why Li Shanqing sent a voice to him and asked him to arrange your death. I just want to see where you have entered the country.
When the words were heard, Deng Xi was shocked and said, "So, is this what the Lord means?"
"Not bad." The Lord of Qiankun said, "Originally, I was a little worried that you would not be able to cross the earth and death array, but just now, I saw you alone breaking the ghost hall and shocked the two halls of Jinghongtong. With this ability, I am much more relieved."
At this point, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Deng Xi frowned secretly when he heard this. If he deliberately arranged the master behind the leapfrog battle as he had guessed before, it should be the soul weapon incarnation of the ghost refiner.
This shows that the other party was murderous at least when he first entered the universe pot. Now this arrangement is a test to observe his own skills. It is hard to guarantee that he does not want to take the opportunity to kill and refine his soul.
So he said tentatively, "I'm afraid the Lord is still relieved too early. Although I was lucky enough to catch a few high-level monsters, take their elixir and refine their energy, so that my skills have improved a little faster, but the foundation is not deep. It is said that there are many crises in this place. I'm afraid it's still more difficult for a disciple like me who has just broken through the fifth layer of the airway, right?
Hearing this, the Lord of Qiankun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Deng Xi, Deng Xi, when you just played against the three halls, you were still energetic and full of pride. Why did you look forward and backward at this time?"
"It's a matter of life and death, and I dare not be careless." Deng Xi said, "Although it is very difficult to fight against the disciples of the three halls, it is still within my control. But I don't know anything about this place. I'm not afraid that I can't beat everything, but I'm afraid that I don't know the depth.
The Lord of Qiankun sat on a high position at this time, looked down at him for a while, and then smiled and said, "Deng Xi, do you mean by me to cancel this war? The decision I made has never been negotiable. Do you think it is possible to make an exception because of you?
Deng Xi shook his head gently: "Lord, you misunderstood. The Lord's words are like a mountain. No one knows. How dare I have such a luxury?"
"What do you mean?" The Lord of Qiankun Temple was puzzled.
Deng Xi smiled and said, "I'm just thinking, since the Lord just said that the purpose of challenging the death array is to test my cultivation, why should I be in a hurry for a while? Wouldn't it better reflect my real cultivation when I made a little preparation, especially after learning about the death of the earth spirit? Otherwise, because you don't understand the mystery, you may lose your life as soon as you enter the battle and don't react, which is against the original intention of the Lord.
"You..." The Lord of Qiankun suffocated in an instant, took a deep breath, and then shook his head helplessly: "Well, Deng Xi, you are very good at blocking me with words. Humph! Don't you just want me to give you a two-day reprieve? OK, I will agree to your request for the first time. I'll give you three days and I'll see what you can do. Three days later, if you can get through the death of the earth, not only will the hunting right of the universe grottoes directly return to the mighty hall, but I can also directly promote you to the mighty hall.
Deng Xi shouted as soon as he heard it, "Thank you, Lord!"
He said, but a long breath grew in his heart, and even the heart he had been holding just now finally put it into his stomach.
This time, he was challenged by the hasty decision, which really made him feel worried. On the one hand, I don't know anything about this, and I suffer a lot of losses in the battle. On the other hand, his skills have gone through a series of dramas, which consume a lot, and it will take time to recover. If you fight immediately, I believe that the chance of successfully passing through this battle will not exceed one.
And if the other party really intends to refine himself, I'm afraid he will be even more doomed.
But the good thing is that my plan to procrastinate still succeeds, and the other party gives it three days. Although these three days are not long, it is enough for him to do a lot of things. For example, maybe you can see if you can practice the weak water magic skills. If you can master this method of corpse liberation and rebirth in a short time, the chances of passing through the earth's death array will be greatly increased.
Now, what gives him the most headache is the problem of Xuanfuding. This thing is stored in this place where there is no entrance. Access must rely on the teleportation of the temple. How can you steal it?
When Deng Xi returned to the mighty hall, he immediately saw Ming Qiluo, who was like an ant on a hot pot.
The beautiful female hall owner was locked with a sad face at this time and couldn't help walking back and forth in the hall. The mighty disciples beside her all looked at her nervously and dared not come out.
"Deng Xi! You're finally back!"
Ming Qiluo's eyebrows, the moment Deng Xi's smile appeared at the door, stretched out like the first day after the rain.
And the other disciples also cheered in unison at the same time.
Deng Xi strode to Ming Qiluo and said with a shallow smile, "Huh? Why do you look like you see the resurrection of the dead? Are you so excited?"
Ming Qiluo immediately snorted angrily: "Do you still want to laugh? Do you know how worried we are about you? Today's posture is beautiful, but it is also hateful. You didn't see Li Shanqing let you immediately challenge the death array, but just want to beat you. In case the lord of the palace is unhappy and directly despises you, you have nothing to say.
"How come?" Deng Xi curled his lips and said, "Today, I met the Lord and talked happily. He also agreed to give me three days off to prepare for the death of the earth."
"What?" Mingqi Luoqi said, "Is there such a thing? The always decided test time can never be changed. How can the Lord let you go for three days?
Speaking of this, she nodded again: "No wonder, I said why Li Hufa later let us go back to each other. It turned out that the test was cancelled. However, these three days are still too short. In the past, before the inner hall disciples challenged, they had to retreat and prepare for at least half a year before they dared to play. You..."
Ming Qiluo unconsciously looked up at Deng Xi, and her eyes were full of worry.
Deng Xi replied with a faint smile: "It's okay. Don't you see that I have been doing all the work of leap-level challenges since I entered the Qiankun Hall? Once an accident has happened, auspicious people have their own appearance. When I win this event, we can dominate the universe cave for a year. Turn over and it's just around the corner!"
As soon as this was said, the mighty disciples beside him immediately cheered, and the scene was extremely warm.
But Ming Qiluo's face was still heavy. After a moment, she drove these unsuspecting disciples back to everyone's residence, leaving only Deng Xi present.
"Tell me, are you sure you are sure to win this game?" Mingqiluo asked seriously.
"No." Deng Xi said bluntly. Seeing Ming Qiluo's sad face, he smiled and said, "Actually, I'm not worried about my lack of skills. This time I went to the universe grottoes, and I really got a little treasure, which is of great benefit to practice. What I have a headache now is whether the death array is square or round. I don't know what dangers there are. I really don't know how to deal with it.
Ming Qiluo's face suddenly softened a little when he heard the words: "You don't have to worry about this. Isn't there me here?"
With that, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise up and said proudly, "In those years, I was the only one of the four people who challenged together to succeed. Just ask me about the key points."
Deng Xi had been waiting for her for a long time. At this time, he couldn't help smiling.
In the next day, Mingqiluo told Deng Xi the various operation methods of the earth's death array and the dangers in combination with the experience he had gained from his predecessors and the actual experience of his own challenges.
It turns out that this place's spiritual death array is a killing array jointly operated by the six guardians of the Qiankun Hall. Among these six people, except Li Shanqing, the others never appear in front of the disciples and concentrate on practicing behind closed doors. So although their cultivation level is also the fifth level of the airway. But the purity of power far exceeds that of others.
And the formation of the six of them is even more offensive and defensive and indestructible. If you want to defeat them forcibly, it is absolutely impossible to rely on the strength of most of the disciples. Therefore, the challenge has not been to break the array, but to achieve the goal as long as you can persist in it for half an hour.
"Half an hour?" Deng Xi was surprised that it was no wonder that Chang Feng succeeded so quickly. That's what happened.
But Ming Qiluo sneered and said, "Do you think half an hour in the earth's death array is so good? In addition to the points I just mentioned, the most critical point is that people in the array, everything around them, including time, will be distorted. From the outside, it's half an hour. When you are in it, you may even feel that you have been besieged for more than seven or eight hours.
"Is there such a thing?" Deng Xi secretly shouted, "This ghost refiner is really a little ghostly. He can actually make such a magical formation in his soul weapon. However, if I can forcibly break the array, will I also accept this set of arrays into the Three Worlds?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself and smiled bitterly. Now that he is not even sure about passing through this array, he has begun to think about forcibly breaking the array, which is a little greedy.
