657: The method of restraint
Xiao Lingchen had a premonition.
Zhu Qiqi’s guess might be true.
He immediately asked again:
“Where is that Elder Qingqiu?”
Zhu Qiqi exclaimed:
“Primal Red Lotus!”
Saying that, Zhu Qiqi hurriedly put her clothes back on and rushed out of the room.
Ever since she brought the immortality spring back, Zhu Qiqi had been working non-stop, immediately beginning to heal the immortality spring.
However, the Primal Red Lotus was, after all, nearing the end of its Lifespan, and reviving it was no simple matter.
Even with the immortality spring, someone was still needed to guard its Dao and inject spiritual power into it, allowing the immortality spring to exert its full effect.
That was why Zhu Qiqi had publicly announced she was in seclusion during this period, and Burial Flower Valley had closed its doors to visitors.
If Xiao Lingchen had not arrived, Zhu Qiqi would not have left the Primal Red Lotus.
And at this moment, having learned about the six instruments and suspecting Elder Qingqiu, she couldn't help but worry if Elder Qingqiu was truly possessed and controlled by a six instruments.
Would it be detrimental to the Primal Red Lotus?
So Zhu Qiqi was in a hurry for a moment.
Seeing this, Xiao Lingchen also hurriedly followed her.
Soon, they arrived at the side of the lotus pond where the Primal Red Lotus was located.
As soon as she arrived, Zhu Qiqi’s pupils contracted.
Her gaze swept across, and she saw that all the high-ranking members of her Burial Flower Valley were heavily injured and lying on the ground.
And in the center of the lotus pond, in front of the Primal Red Lotus, stood none other than Elder Qingqiu!
“Elder Qingqiu, what are you doing?!”
Zhu Qiqi quickly cried out in alarm.
Ye Qingqiu turned her head and glanced at Zhu Qiqi, then sneered.
The next second, her hand was instantly covered in black and green curse marks.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Lingchen’s pupils shrank violently!
Those black and green curse marks were exactly the same as when Qing Yu attacked Revered Master!
At this moment, Xiao Lingchen immediately confirmed that Elder Qingqiu was indeed possessed by a six instruments!
And at this very instant, Xiao Lingchen had already made his move.
He instantly vanished from his original spot.
In just a flash, he reappeared in front of Ye Qingqiu.
The electric light of the Crimson Firmament God Annihilation Ring flickered, accumulating on the Opening Heaven Sword in his hand.
He unhesitatingly slashed diagonally with his sword, and a massive sword light shone at this moment.
However, Ye Qingqiu was also an Immortal Rank expert, and her strength clearly exceeded Xiao Lingchen's imagination.
Although his sword struck her arm directly, it only severed her sleeve, failing to harm her body in the slightest!
“You’re courting death!!!”
Ye Qingqiu revealed a chilling, furious laugh and was about to attack Xiao Lingchen.
Fortunately, at this moment, Zhu Qiqi finally reacted.
From between her white sleeves, countless Burial Flower Silk flew out, like thousands of spiritual snakes.
They slammed into Ye Qingqiu’s body.
Although Ye Qingqiu also had Immortal Rank cultivation, she was ultimately no match for Zhu Qiqi.
Under the assault of those thousands of Burial Flower Silk, she couldn't hold out for even a minute and was heavily injured and knocked to the ground!
Zhu Qiqi originally wanted to step forward, but Xiao Lingchen stopped her:
“Stop!”
“Don’t come over!”
“Don’t give the six instruments a chance to escape!”
As soon as he said this, Zhu Qiqi immediately stopped, remembering what Xiao Lingchen had said earlier about the six instruments being able to transfer.
If she went over now, it would likely give the six instruments a chance to escape.
So she hurriedly stopped.
She could only wave her Burial Flower Silk to bind her.
Thus, a crisis for the Primal Red Lotus was averted.
However, even though she was bound at this moment, Ye Qingqiu was still unwilling.
“Let me go!”
“Let me go!”
“Valley Revered Master, why are you helping an outsider deal with this old woman? What did this old woman do wrong?”
Xiao Lingchen unhesitatingly kicked her.
“Still trying to twist right and wrong.”
“You’ve gone too far!”
Then, Xiao Lingchen suddenly tore open the clothes behind Ye Qingqiu.
Indeed, he found the Xuanhuang, one of the six instruments, below her back neck, exactly like the wound below Qing Yu’s back neck!
“How is it? Is it there?”
Zhu Qiqi, from a distance, also quickly asked.
Xiao Lingchen nodded:
“Yes!”
Saying that, he also made a move, preparing to directly pry off the Xuanhuang.
However, the difficulty was greater than Xiao Lingchen had imagined; the Xuanhuang seemed to be directly branded onto her body and could not be pried off at all.
Xiao Lingchen was not a soft-hearted person.
Seeing that it was difficult to pry off, he simply pulled out his sword, intending to gouge out the entire piece of flesh.
But the result was the same.
The Xuanhuang seemed to have grown into her body, connected to her spine, and even though Ye Qingqiu screamed in pain, Xiao Lingchen’s sword still couldn’t dig out the Xuanhuang!
Fortunately, at this moment, the Primal Red Lotus suddenly spoke, her voice magnetic and pleasant:
“In ancient times, the mighty beings of myriad races used Yin and Yang Qi to suppress and kill Rahu. These six instruments were all condensed from Rahu’s essence blood and incense, and they also fear Yin and Yang Qi.”
“With Yin and Yang Qi, they can be subdued.”
As soon as this was said, Xiao Lingchen’s eyebrows raised.
As expected of the Primal Red Lotus, she knew a great deal and had clearly also seen the Yin and Yang Qi he possessed within his body.
Immediately, Xiao Lingchen mobilized the Yin and Yang Qi within his body and infused it into the Xuanhuang behind Ye Qingqiu.
Ye Qingqiu immediately let out painful screams, twisting and struggling her body constantly, and the Xuanhuang also trembled violently at this moment, as if it too was struggling!
Fortunately, Zhu Qiqi’s Burial Flower Silk was still strong enough, which kept her from breaking free.
But the Xuanhuang behind her couldn't hold on.
As Xiao Lingchen injected more and more Yin and Yang Qi, the Xuanhuang vibrated even more violently.
But soon, it stopped vibrating.
Little by little, it peeled away from Ye Qingqiu’s body and finally fell to the ground, no longer able to move.
Xiao Lingchen took out a container and placed the Xuanhuang inside, then poured a large amount of Yin and Yang Qi into it, sealing it away.
After confirming that the Xuanhuang could not escape from inside, Xiao Lingchen finally relaxed.
Seeing this, Zhu Qiqi, after getting Xiao Lingchen's permission, slowly approached.
Looking at the Xuanhuang in the container, Zhu Qiqi couldn't help but exclaim in amazement:
“Is this one of the six instruments used to worship the ancient fierce god Rahu?”
“How terrifying!”
Especially seeing the mess around and those heavily injured Elder high-ranking members, Zhu Qiqi felt a surge of lingering fear.
This time, it was fortunate that Xiao Lingchen arrived in time, and she also happened to leave this place because of Xiao Lingchen.
Otherwise, she would have been like those Elder high-ranking members, caught off guard and ambushed by Elder Qingqiu, who was possessed by the Xuanhuang, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Thanks to Xiao Lingchen, this time it was a close call!
Xiao Lingchen nodded, but said with a heavy tone:
“The six instruments are terrifying, but what’s even more terrifying is that there are five more six instruments scattered outside.”
“They possess people, confuse their minds, turn them into Puppets, and single-mindedly want to resurrect Rahu!”
“Once Rahu is resurrected, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
Zhu Qiqi also knew the seriousness of this, and her mood was also very heavy.
Not long after, Ye Qingqiu and the high-ranking members of Burial Flower Valley all woke up one by one, and seeing the mess around them, each of them was surprised.
Zhu Qiqi just told them to go back and rest, and she would talk to them after they recovered.
Meanwhile, Xiao Lingchen looked at the Primal Red Lotus.
First, he respectfully bowed to the Primal Red Lotus, then said:
“Junior Xiao Lingchen, greets Senior.”
“Junior has long admired Senior’s name.”
