Immortal Formula

   Chapter 173 Lin Nan's Secret

On this day, Gu Yan was still controlling the Purple Flame Crystal in the magic circle, slowly absorbing the Yin Fire Spiritual Qi. Suddenly, she felt that the fluctuations of the Spiritual Qi began to become unstable. High and low, ups and downs.

  Gu Yan can't help frowning, she has been underground for nearly six months, and this has happened several times in the past one or two months.

   After that Zheng Zhengyin had a fight with her, he still abides by the previous agreement and only releases his spirit beast on the full moon day. Outside of this day, he never pays attention to Gu Yan's magic circle.

   But these days, the fluctuations of the fire aura have become more frequent. It used to be only once every ten days, but now it takes almost every three or two days, which has greatly affected the speed at which Gu Yan absorbs the Yin fire aura.

   She frowned and closed the circle. I was going to go to the island to ask Lin Ruoxu, is there a day when the leylines are unstable on this island every year, or is it only during her time that she is here special?

   She set up a formation to cover up the cave, and then flew to the ground. Just when he saw Lin Ran coming from the front mountain, he called her.

When Lin Ran heard that Gu Yan was looking for Lin Ruoxu, he said, "Oh, what a coincidence, the patriarch went out of the island a few days ago, and he didn't know where he went, but he said it would take more than ten days to come back. But Before the patriarch left, he entrusted everything on the island to Sister Lin Nan, and senior can go to Qianshan to find her."

  Gu Yan nodded and asked where Lin Nan was before flying towards the front mountain.

   When she arrived at Qianshan, she saw Lin Nan's pretty figure standing there not far away. Just as she was about to say hello, she saw that Lin Nan's face was a little unhappy, and Gu Yan's footsteps slowed down.

  Lin Nan stood in front of a rock, and Lin Zihan was not far away. The faces of the two were not very good-looking, and it seemed that there was some quarrel.

  Gu Yan couldn't help sighing. She has been through the world for a long time, and naturally she can see that Lin Zihan is the kind of man who is arrogant and arrogant, but Lin Nan is the second master of the Lin family after his father. You can imagine how the two get along.

  The two were talking. She passed by at this time, and she was afraid of prying into other people's privacy, so she waited from a distance.

The two people were very engaged in what they said, and they didn't seem to notice anyone beside them. Gu Yan watched from a distance and couldn't hear what they were talking about. Only when they saw two people's faces were unhappy, and then Lin Nan said He started to be careful with Lin Zihan, and said soft words in a low voice. Later, the anger on his face slowly faded, but he still didn't show a smile. After a few more words, the two of them dispersed.

Gu Yan watched the two separate from a distance. Lin Zihan flew towards the front mountain, while Lin Nan was still standing there. Just as she was about to extend her hand to say hello, she saw Lin Nan's brows suddenly wrinkle, and she took it out in her hand. One is only the size of a palm, white and shiny, like a jade pendant.

The jade pendant was engraved with lines one by one, and Gu Yan's eyes suddenly showed a strange color. This jade pendant was a magic weapon, and the engraved on it looked like it was used for the formation. If she read it right, it should be An array key!

   She didn't know the so-called formation key before, but she had heard it from Lin Jiaxiu, a master who was proficient in formation techniques. This is specially used for strong protection formation. Once some formations are formed, people inside cannot go out, and people outside cannot enter, in order to protect something, but sometimes people must come in and out, so special materials are used to make array keys to prepare for entry and exit. The use of the formation method can generally only be used by one person.

   She looked at Lin Nan holding the array key in his hand, and hurriedly walked towards the southeast of Chilang Reef, and couldn't help but feel a little doubt in her heart. According to Lin Ran, on the southeast side of Chilang Reef, there is an area of ​​about several hundred square meters. It was the place where the ancestors of the Lin family sat, so it was listed as a forbidden area, and people were never allowed to enter or leave. But if it is a forbidden place where the ancestors are sitting, it is enough to make offerings. Do you need a powerful magic circle on the cloth?

   When she saw Lin Nan walking in a hurry, she felt that there was something strange in it, and after thinking about it, she still followed.

Gu Yan usually doesn't like to peep into the privacy of others, but now she is in the realm of others, so she can't think too much about everything, plus Lin Nan's actions have always been secretive, and her relationship with her is not far or near. . So she hesitated for a while, then released the Jinyun Plate, covering her figure, and quietly followed behind.

  Jin Yun Die had the effect of concealing her figure, and coupled with Gu Yan's cultivation, it was one step higher than Lin Nan. Lin Nan seemed to be full of thoughts, not paying attention to someone following behind.

She hurried to the southeast. It was a white sandy beach with a very steep cliff. Gu Yan seldom came to this place before, but now she paid attention to it, and she didn't see any shadow of the formation, and she exclaimed in her heart. , The person who set up the formation must also be a master.

Lin Nan glanced around, but didn't notice anyone, she stretched out her hand and played a magic trick, and then the mountain wall that was smooth like a mirror suddenly became rippling. She reached out and threw the jade pendant in front of her, Like a mask slowly separating, revealing a unique hole in the middle.

   The gap exposed by the mask can only allow one person to pass through. Lin Nan walked in quickly, and the jade pendant hung there high, and the gap did not close. It seems that this array key can be used multiple times.

  Gu Yan didn't dare to follow up. After all, he didn't know if the effect of this formation had a visible effect. She pondered for a while, and then quietly took out the Zhu Yanjing mirror under the cover of the Jinyun dish, took out two spirit stones, laid out a simple magic circle, and then pointed the mirror into the magic circle.

This is what she learned from Lin Jiaxiu. In the great formation of subduing demons, you can see the shadowed scene in Kunyuan. This formation is naturally not a problem, but it is very wasteful of spiritual energy. Those few pieces of spiritual energy Shi's light quickly dimmed as he saw it.

The inside of the    array is really unique. It was probably a large open space with a radius of several hundred zhang, not all flat, but rows of sloping fields, all densely planted with fruit trees. Gu Yan couldn't help but be a little surprised. This Lin Nan is not a farmer, so what is he doing with such a large pile of fruits? You must know that whether it is planting spiritual grasses or exotic flowers, they are all based on individual branches. How can they be spread all over the mountains and fields like fruit farmers?

  The fruit trees grew very densely, with rows and rows on each tree, and the branches were heavily bent. Each fruit has a strong golden yellow color, which is slightly larger than the navel oranges Gu Yan had seen in his hometown. Judging by the trembling of the branches, the weight is really not light.

   There was a row of bamboo huts around that sloping land. There were about a dozen people in it. Gu Yan took a look at them. There was one who was probably the leader. Seeing Lin Nan coming in, he hurriedly leaned in front of him and whispered, "Miss Lin!"

   Lin Nan said in a low voice, "What's the matter with calling me in such a hurry? There are outsiders on the island now, so things can't be as convenient as before!" Gu Yan heard that and knew that the "outsider" must be herself.

  The man said respectfully, "These days, the growth rate of the seven birds has suddenly slowed down. It seems that the fire aura in the ground fluctuates a little, so I want to ask the girl to ask, is there something wrong?"

Lin Nan pondered for a moment, then said: "There is a monk from the sea absorbing fire spiritual energy underground, I can't stop it, but she should not cause fluctuations in the spiritual pulse, I will handle this matter, now the big event is approaching, you must Be very careful, don't let anything go wrong with this matter that has been planned for decades. Wait for it." After waving her hand, she came out of the circle and put away the key of the circle, so the light of the circle Immediately, he retreated and turned back to his original appearance.

  Gu Yan avoided her far away before she came out, and couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart. Looking at Lin Nan's appearance, it seemed that even Lin Zihan was hiding it.

   She felt more and more that the Chilang Reef was a bit strange. The Lin family was very good. They moved to a place where they didn't **** on this island decades ago, and they didn't point to the fire spirit veins underground to practice. However, Lin Nan set up a magic circle on the island, and planted a large piece of Qiquan fruit. I don't know what it was used for. Looking at the Qiqianguo from a distance, I can't see anything unusual. There is only a faint spiritual energy on it. It is probably not enough for Qi-refining disciples to practice. I think it must have other uses.

She thought about it for a long time, but she didn't think that she had heard the name of Qiqinguo, so she stopped thinking about it, waved her hand and threw out the spent spirit stone, put away the Zhu Yanjing, and thought about having a face to face with Lin Ran, It was impossible not to see Lin Nan once, so he waited here for another half an hour before going to Qianshan.

   When he arrived at Qianshan, Lin Nan stood in front of the flower hall. He was a little stunned. He didn't know what he was thinking about. Gu Yan stepped forward to say hello, and then talked about the instability of the underground fire.

After listening to Lin Nan, he pondered for a moment and said, "The underground volcano has erupted once a thousand years ago, and it has been quietly overflowing. This time there is probably something different, and I will tell my uncle. Fellow Daoist has been in these days. Cultivation underground, you have to be more careful." After speaking, nothing was revealed.

Gu Yan replied with a smile, and then turned back to the cave, looking at Lin Nan's perfunctory words, she knew that this mysterious sword cultivator, and even the Lin family, must be hiding something from herself, and also from the elders of the Lin family. Most people, at least Lin Ruoxu's parents and children, don't know the existence of that magic circle.

   Not standing under a dangerous wall has always been Gu Yan's style of acting. Although she is responsible for her work, she never evades the fear of difficulties, but she will not rashly let herself wading in muddy waters. Chilang Reef is not a good place. But what she knew of returning to the ruins of the overseas seas, only knew of this spiritual vein that led directly to the underground fire of the yin, not to mention that her purple flame crystal soul has been refined for several months, and it is at a critical juncture. It's all done. No matter what, you have to stick to this year and talk about it!
