Chapter 428 Searching for the Seven Stars Key
Capitol Inn.
When Duanmu Shi saw Xuanyuan Mo, she immediately ran over, “Ah Xue, where have you been?”
Xuanyuan Mo suddenly reached out and wrapped Duanmu Shi into his arms, burying his head in the crook of her neck.
Feeling Xuanyuan Mo’s sad emotions, Duanmu Shi’s eyes flashed with a touch of heartache, “You, went to see mother?”
Xuanyuan Mo’s body stiffened and his hold on Duanmu Shi tightened violently.
The heartache in Duanmu Shi’s eyes increased, reaching out, caressing his back one at a time, “Don’t worry, we’ll definitely be able to save mother.”
Early the next morning, Duanmu Shi summoned everyone to his room.
“We’ve been coming to Lanchuan for some time, when we first came to Lanchuan one was for Sheng’er, and the other was for Ah Xue’s mother, now Sheng’er is safe and sound, but her mother is still locked up in the Evil Spirit Abyss, so it’s imperative that we get her out of the Spirit Abyss.”
The crowd nodded, and a flash of excitement flashed in the white-clothed elder’s eyes.
Is it finally time to save the Divine Queen?
Jun Wu Xie even directly stood up and said excitedly, “Then what are we waiting for, let’s go to that what’s-her-name Spirit Abyss now to save Auntie.”
He and Mo Heng have known each other since childhood and are like brothers and sisters, and Mo Heng’s parents are naturally his parents, so it’s only right to save them.
“Wait a minute.” Looking at the excited Jun Wu Xie, the corner of Duanmu Shi’s eyes involuntarily twitched.
“I’ve been to the Spirit Abyss before, and I’ve seen my mother, her soul consciousness is bound by the Seven Star Lock, we can’t save her at all by going like this.”
Xuanyuan Mo’s fists tightened, and a cold killing intent crossed the bottom of his eyes.
“You mean that we should find a way to crack the Seven Star Lock before going to the Spirit Abyss.” Hei Yan’s brows furrowed lightly in thought.
“Other than the Seven Star Key, there is no more way to break the Seven Star Lock.” The white-robed elder on the side suddenly spoke.
Duanmu Shi nodded, “The Grand Elder is right, this Seven Star Lock is specialized in binding souls, and other than the Seven Star Key, there is no other way to break it.”
“Then where are we going to find this Seven Star Key now?” Jun Wu Xie frowned.
The white-robed elder shook his head with a grave expression, “I heard that this Seven Star Key was unaccounted for hundreds of thousands of years ago.”
At those words, the crowd was instantly disappointed.
Hundreds of thousands of years ago the whereabouts were unknown, there was no hint of this, how could they find it.
Finding seven keys in the huge Lanchuan is not like looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea.
Seeing the disappointment on everyone’s faces, Duanmu Shi’s eyes flashed lightly, “Mother and I said that the Seven Star Key is the most Yin thing, and can only stay in the most Yin and cold places, she speculated that the Seven Star Key should be in the Beast Lair, the Ghost Valley, the Devil’s Domain, the Demon Pool, the Divine Mound, the Emperor’s Tomb, and the Spirit Abyss, these seven places.”
“These seven places are indeed the most Yin and cold places, Your Highness the Divine Empress is as wise and intelligent as ever.” A touch of awe and admiration crossed the bottom of the white-robed elder’s eyes.
Back then, Her Highness the Divine Empress’ intelligence was popular throughout the Lanchuan Continent, and there was nothing in this world that could be difficult for her.
The crowd was also in awe, to be able to guess the whereabouts of the Seven Star Key just based on one of its attributes, this Divine Empress’s intelligence was not something that could be compared to ordinary people.
“Then there’s no time to lose, let’s go and find the Seven Star Key.” Jun Wu Xie rubbed her fists together in a very excited manner.
Duanmu Shi nodded and reached out towards Little Shadow, “Little Shadow, bring the map of Lanchuan.”
Little Shadow nodded her head and found the Lanchuan map from the Hundred Treasure Book and handed it to Duanmu Shi.
Duanmushi took the map and laid it flat on the table as the crowd gathered together.
“The Beast Den is here, the Ghost Valley is here, and the Devil’s Domain, the Demon Pool …” Duanmu Shi pointed out each of the seven places on the map.
“The Emperor’s Tomb is at the head and the Spirit Abyss is at the end, these seven points are so strange.” Jun Wu Xie stroked her chin with an inquisitive expression.
Hei Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “It’s the Big Dipper.”
Jun Wu Xie’s eyes lit up as she said joyfully, “It is indeed the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, it seems that the Divine Empress was right in her guess, these seven places should be the location of the Seven Star Key.”
“This place seems like I’ve been there before?” Duanmu Shi stared at the word “Beast Den” on the map, her brows knitting lightly.
Bloodflame hooked his lips and smiled evilly, “Of course I’ve been there, isn’t that where you crossed over?”
A bright light flew through Duanmu Shi’s mind, “That’s the Beast Den?”
Man, the thought of the densely packed beasts in there gave her a pang.
Being reminded by Blood Flame, everyone also remembered where they had crossed over in the first place.
“I’ve been to Ghost Valley with xiao’er.” Jun Wu Xie swallowed hard at the thought of Ghost Valley.
“Magic Domain.” Xuanyuan Mo’s expression was pale, without a trace of expression on his face.
“I’ve been to the Demon Pool with Sheng’er.”
Hei Yan’s eyes flickered lightly, and he still had palpitations when he thought of that day’s scene at the Demon Pool.
Duanmu Shi nodded, “Spirit Abyss, Divine Mound, and Emperor’s Tomb, I’ve been to all three of these places as well, so let’s do it this way, the four of us will each go back to the place where we traveled over in the first place to look for the Seven Star Key.”
“I protest.”
As soon as Duanmu Shi’s words fell, Jun Wu Xie immediately raised her hand in protest.
The crowd all looked at Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie pursed her lips sheepishly, “I don t want to go to Ghost Valley, I can go to the Devil …”
No, no, no, no, he may not necessarily be able to lay his hands on the demon children, “I can go to the demon pool or the beast …”
“The protest is invalid.”
Before Jun Wu Xie could finish her words, she was directly interrupted by Xuanyuan Mo mercilessly.
“Eh …” Jun Wu Xie opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but realized that everyone had re-grouped together and no one was paying attention to him anymore.
“This arrangement is quite good, the Spirit Abyss we go last piece, as for the Divine Mound and the Emperor’s Tomb, whoever comes out first goes …”
“The Emperor’s Tomb I’ll go.”
“God’s Mound I’ll go.”
Two sudden childish voices interrupted the crowd’s discussion.
The crowd lowered their eyes to look at Cold Xie and Liang Sheng, frowning unanimously.
“No.” Several voices rang out at once, in surprising unison.
Cold Xie and Liang Sheng looked at each other, then together they looked at the crowd, “We also want to do our part for our grandmother.”
Duanmu Shi frowned and walked over to Hanxiao and Liangsheng and squatted down in front of them, saying with a gentle face, “Mother knows that you guys want to help, but the Emperor’s Tomb and the Divine Mound are both very dangerous, and Mother doesn’t want you guys to have any more accidents.”
Her heart couldn’t help but ache at the thought of them before, and as a mother, she didn’t want them to be in any more danger.
“There aren’t many places in total, so you two little ones shouldn’t get involved, we’ll get it done quickly.” Jun Wu Xie also joined in the persuasion.
Seeing that no one agreed with them, Cold Xie and Liang Sheng lowered their eyes, both a little disappointed.
Looking at the two small heads that were hanging low, both Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo were a little heartbroken, but they still didn’t let go.
There wasn’t a single one of these seven places that wasn’t an extremely dangerous place, and they wouldn’t let these two little guys risk their lives.
The two little guys were in a low mood, and Blood Yan looked heartbroken on the side, “Alright, don’t pout, Master agreed that you guys should go, right as an experience.”
The cold xiao and Liangsheng instantly raised their eyes with a look of delight, “Thank you, Master.”
“Blood Flame?” Duanmu Shi turned her eyes in surprise to stare at Blood Flame.
Blood Yan raised his eyebrows in disbelief, “Don’t underestimate them, their current cultivation level is much stronger than yours.”
Duanmushi frowned, “But …”
Blood Yan waved his hand and impatiently interrupted, “Don’t but it, don’t worry, I will accompany Little Four to the Divine Mound when the time comes.”
Hearing Bloodflame say this, Duanmu Shi let out a soft sigh of relief.
It was fine for Sheng’er to be accompanied by Blood Flame, before Blood Flame was at the Divine Graveyard, none of those brats dared to come close, but what about xiao’er?
Duanmushi thought, and then turned to Chanyou worriedly.
Seemingly seeing Duanmu Shi’s concerns, Blood Yan coolly said, “As for xiao’er, don’t forget that there’s still a big Buddha in his jade gourd!”
The crowd suddenly realized, right ah, small cold xiao that jade gourd but there is the old ancestor of the Mo family, there is this old ancestor of the Mo family, this Mo family’s imperial tomb there is any little kid dare to come out to clamor.
“Alright, it’s settled, the four of you go back from wherever you came from, as for the Emperor’s Tomb and the Divine Mound, feel free to leave them to xiao’er and Xiao Si’er.”
Blood Yan looked at Cold Xie and Liang Sheng, that was full of confidence.
With Blood Flame and the Old Ancestor following them, Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo were relieved.
“Alright, everyone split up to look for the Seven Star Key, and when you find it, gather back here, Bing Ning and the Grand Elder will stay here and wait for us.”
Everyone nodded their heads and Ye Bingning looked at Jun Wu Xie reluctantly, “Be careful.”
The corners of Jun Wu Xie’s lips hooked slightly as he hung his head and kissed Ye Bing Ning’s glossy forehead, “Be good and wait for me.”
Hei Yan secretly glanced at Liang Sheng, but saw that Liang Sheng was also looking at him and immediately raised a warm smile.
Xuanyuan Mo gently embraced Duanmu Shi into his arms, “Be careful.”
The corners of Duanmushi’s lips rose slightly, “You too.”
After a few goodbyes, the group split up and went their separate ways to their destinations.
Hei Yan was the first to arrive at the Demon Suppression Cave, and as soon as he entered it, he was pestered by the small demons inside.
Hades Yan’s eyes were cold, and he immediately wielded the power of the Ghost Lord, clearing away the small demons along the way, heading towards the deepest demon pool.
After a tea, he finally reached the Demon Pool.
The demon pool was densely packed with small demons, and as soon as they saw Hei Yan come in, the small demons immediately wrapped themselves around him.
Hei Yan quickly killed the small demons while searching for the Seven Star Key.
Over here, Jun Wu Xie, Xuanyuan Mo, and Han Xiao had also arrived at the Ghost Valley, the Devil’s Domain, and the Emperor’s Tomb respectively.
Even though Jun Wu Xie was no longer willing, he still stepped into the Ghost Valley.
As soon as they entered the Ghost Valley Boundary, a group of vicious ghosts with hideous faces floated over.
Looking at the evil spirits floating towards him from all directions, Jun Wu Xie’s eyelids involuntarily jumped.
How many wicked things had he done in his past life that God had to send so many evil spirits to punish him.
Seeing that the evil spirits were about to pounce on him, Jun Wu Xie no longer thought much about it and immediately released his Demon Power.
“Boom”, the red beam of light hit the evil spirit, and the evil spirit instantly disappeared.
Jun Wu Xie was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when those disappearing evil spirits instantly reappeared.
As many as Jun Wu Xie killed, those evil spirits revived, infuriating Jun Wu Xie who threw back his head and let out a long whistle.
“Ah …”
Just like that, the evil spirits continued to be annihilated and revived amidst Jun Wu Xie’s roar.
Xuanyuan Mo once again stepped into the demonic domain, unlike the last time when he was impatient to cope with it, this time he was killing Buddha and demons.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword flew up and down, and those demons in the way were all dissipated under the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
