Fire Monster

Chapter 38 A sudden turn of events
Zhao Guanshan is a little weak now. If he was an S-level +18 gun god just now, now he is a -1 gun soldier with luck of E.

After all, with the vitality of just four weeks of Qi Refining, it can actually pry open the power of heaven and earth and form a rune. It would be strange if it was not in vain.

Fortunately, he had the marrow cleansing spiritual liquid. He drank three portions of the liquid in one breath, and then used the flame in the imperial seal oil lamp to purify and burn it. Only then was he able to stabilize the situation.

Only then did he look up and saw that the rune was still there, with no sign of dissipating.

That's magic.

The teachers in the Taoist temple have never talked about such things.

"Perhaps this is the method used by Qi Refiners."

Zhao Guanshan was thinking in his heart. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but in the end he shook his head. It was not because he was afraid of danger. There was no danger because the function of this rune was to dispel and purify.

Or even if you don't know, you can clearly feel it just by feeling. The power in this rune gives people the safest, purest, clearest and most comfortable feeling.

“So, I have to maximize the value of the runes that cost me three portions of the Marrow Cleansing Spiritual Fluid. This thing should be able to save a person on the battlefield.”

"But I don't know how long this rune can last?"

"I also don't know how to seal."

Zhao Guanshan was a little anxious. How could he not be anxious? This rune could disappear at any time.

However, only the method of sealing can preserve this rune.

But the method of imperial seal also requires related tools, such as his imperial seal oil lamp and imperial seal armor.

Those can only be carried by special materials.

Ordinary objects and ordinary materials simply cannot bear this.

Finally, Zhao Guanshan could only take out his imperial seal oil lamp. This was the only imperial seal magic weapon in his hand. He just hoped that it would succeed. Otherwise, he would have to bear it with his body.

Cautiously, he brought the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp closer. At that moment, the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp suddenly lit up, warm and gentle, and the rune also slowly circled, as if it was attracted.

Zhao Guanshan gritted his teeth and handed the imperial oil lamp forward. When the distance between the two was less than five centimeters, the rune suddenly shone brightly. It was no longer a rune, but a blooming flower of fire.

Petals transformed from flames bloomed beautifully, and all the petals wrapped around the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp. This lasted for three seconds. During this time, the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp suddenly became extremely hot, making Zhao Guanshan grimace in pain. He wanted to throw it away but couldn't.

Three seconds later, all abnormalities disappeared and the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp returned to normal, but inside it, there was a clear, shrunken rune.

The small flame inside was not affected at all.

"Is this it?"

Zhao Guanshan was stunned, but soon became happy and felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Because this means that he can also create and forge imperial seal instruments.

"I just wonder when I can unlock another Explosion Rune?"

When he was comprehending the Lihuo Dao Talisman before, he had two choices, one was gentle, with the function of dispersing and purifying, and the other was violent, with the function of exploding and burning.

"Take your time. The most important thing is to cultivate the first breath of pure Yang energy."

-

"Boom!"

Not long after the rooster crowed for curfew, a violent knock on the door woke Zhao Guanshan up from his practice again.

Once again, his practice was interrupted.

When I pushed the door open, I saw it was Yang Mao.

"I've already given you the two energy storage spirit stones. Why are you still looking for me? What's wrong with you lately?"

Zhao Guanshan was very annoyed. Time was precious and he had made preparations to go into seclusion, but he was disturbed again and again.

But Yang Mao looked very anxious, even terrified, and sweating all over, like a water ghost that had just emerged from the river. He just held onto Zhao Guanshan and said hurriedly in a low voice, "I'm fine. It's Erya. Something's wrong with her. I don't dare to go to the Demon Suppression Division because I'm afraid she'll be burned. Zhao Guanshan, I know you've been quite powerful recently. Please think of a way to save Erya, for we grew up together."

"Wait, are you kidding me!"

Zhao Guanshan was startled and subconsciously looked up at the sky. It was still dark, no different from the past. The evil demons had not yet launched a large-scale attack. How did Erya get caught? Besides, she was a martial arts student who had cultivated two breaths of pure yang energy. Ordinary wandering evil demons did not dare to approach her.

Could it be?

Zhao Guanshan's heart sank. He saw Yang Mao and Liu Erya looking so happy last night and he felt that it was inappropriate to do so, especially in the current environment. It was simply courting death!
It's okay now, I have really been 'infiltrated' by the evil spirit.

Yang Mao was still stammering, seeming to be frightened.

"I didn't lie. After we came back last night, Arya said her stomach hurt a little, but it soon got better. I thought I was too brave... After returning from school today, I found that her belly was a little big, and now it's this big..."

Yang Mao gestured and Zhao Guanshan's heart skipped a beat. How many twins must these be?

"Where is the Demon Suppression Division team at the entrance of the alley? Didn't that Qi Refiner see it?"

"They have all been transferred to the Imperial Seal Great Wall. There are only five martial arts apprentices maintaining order at the entrance of the alley. They know nothing! Zhao Guanshan, I have no choice but to ask you for help!"

Yang Mao was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Fuck! Take me there now."

Zhao Guanshan immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. It was not just a problem with Arya, but also about the Imperial Seal Wall in Linjiang Prefecture. Perhaps a war had already broken out there.

He had always thought that a massive attack by evil spirits would be earth-shattering, but this was simply a misunderstanding.

The war should have actually started, but he was not qualified to go to the battlefield, so he didn't know about it.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, the Taoist Palace will not broadcast the actual war situation live, so the people in the Imperial Seal Great Wall still feel that everything is normal and everything is very quiet.

By the time the Imperial Seal Wall was breached and an army of evil demons really rushed in, the battle would have reached its most brutal and worst moment.

Therefore, the main force of the Demon Suppression Division team, which was originally used for patrolling, deterrence, and maintaining regional law and order, was withdrawn. As a result, the evil demons that had escaped inside Linjiang Prefecture naturally became active.

"and many more!"

After walking a few steps, Zhao Guanshan turned back and put on his backpack, which contained most of his belongings, including the remaining marrow cleansing liquid.

As for the materials used to assemble and forge the psychic sword, they are no longer useful.

Yang Mao was running in front, with Zhao Guanshan chasing closely behind. The entire slum alley was as quiet as a ghost town at this moment. Many of the sealed huts didn't even have a glimmer of protection. No one knew whether they had been attacked or the people were gone.

As for those sealed huts that had turned on the protective dim light, they were particularly far away in the darkness.

It's only a few steps away, but I feel like I can't get there at all.

"It's a wall ghost! At least level three! And there are more than one of them."

Yang Mao suddenly stopped. There was no way he could stop. Zhao Guanshan's residence was actually less than 150 meters away from the Chiyin Cottage where Yang Mao lived. But he could no longer see any further. The darkness was like sticky ink poured down, flowing and rolling in this space. Not to mention moving forward, even breathing became extremely difficult, as if countless hands were covering his mouth and nose.

"Fuck! Where's your imperial seal oil lamp?"

Zhao Guanshan shouted, but only he could hear the sound. He and Yang Mao were only one step apart, but they were as far away as the horizon. He could only see Yang Mao's desperate eyes. He couldn't even struggle. In just a few seconds, he would be drowned in the darkness.

Then Zhao Guanshan suddenly realized that Yang Mao's seal oil lamp had run out of energy. When he rushed out of the room to ask for help, he was blocked. He used up all his strength to rush to the door of his seal hut.

It was also thanks to his second-level Imperial Seal Hut, otherwise he wouldn't be able to find it and wouldn't be able to knock on the door at all.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guanshan no longer hesitated. He raised his hand and pulled the trigger on the psychic crossbow towards the darkness in front of him!
In an instant, spiritual light shot out, and three psychic crossbow arrows shot into the darkness, like a blooming lotus. Only a series of shrill howls were heard, and the darkness around them receded like an ink tide. Then, the spiritual light burst out from the psychic crossbow arrows, and shot directly in all directions like a storm. Within ten steps, nothing was left.

This is the power of psychic weapons. Even if it is only the lowest level psychic weapon, it still has great power at this moment.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Yang Mao, who had fallen to the ground, struggled to get up and frantically spat out what was in his mouth. It turned out to be a pile of black, smelly soil. He almost died here.
