Chapter 164 - Risky Array of Root Praying, Sharp skill of Fire Spirit (1/2)

Chapter 164 Risky Array of Root Praying, Sharp skill of Fire Spirit“Brother Hao Ning? The following two things are all about you.” Long Fei didn’t wait for Liu Shuai’s response. He coughed a bit and moved on, “Please make me two promises. First, if one day you meet Yufei’s soul sparkle, manage to save him. If you don’t…then it’s all destined.” Long Fei said with a quiver in his voice. He feared that Liu Shuai was still skeptical about his words, then added, “Liu Shuai, don’t doubt me. You can rethink about it yourself. Even a small Dragon God like me would care so much about the life I bestow, let alone that you’re Master Yunzhongzi’s son in his previous incarnation. How could he be indifferent to you?”

“I…” Liu Shuai wiped his tears in silence, “I see.”

“Brother Hao Ning,” Long Fei, hearing the answer from Liu Shuai’s mouth, let go of his burden and continued, “Another thing is, do please go to Ms. Ren with the ring of Soul Cutter. She will understand me. You must talk to her yourself. Tell her that I asked you to go for her. Maybe she was the only one in the world who could ever figure the stuff out for you. You tell her that Yufei doubted that between the ring and macro—”

At that point, Long Fei’s body had a sudden shake. The body had articulated clearly, while then blood spurted from his mouth at each word he uttered and pushed it back to his throat. Long Fei got agitated and tried more urgently to speak, for which he threw up even more blood. The red blood overflowed around his body and turned into colorless water. The water originally shed only, but the array made by Xiao Hong collected them back to Long Fei’s body. So that Long Fei threw up blood and converged his body at the same time. However, his body seemed badly injured. The color of the whole body was fading, which indicated that he would regress to the state of soul-dispersing soon.

“What’s it?” Xiao Hong squinted at Long Fei’s condition and frowned, “Why does Long Fei’s spirit begin to dissolve so drastically all in a sudden?”

Reminded by Xiao Hong, Hao Ning instantly peered outside. He saw those guys had finished the array, the three of whom had stuck a small flag into the earth separately. They danced around the array stomping weird steps and murmured with their eyes closed.

“This…” Hao Ning asked Xiao Hong in uncertainty, “is it Root Praying Method?”

“Yes, telling from their steps.” Xiao Hong watched and pondered, “But too odd. In my memory, the Root Praying Method is mainly run by one person with other members acting as assistants. But you looked at the three. They all look like the main actors of root praying. Somewhat strange.

“Is it possible that they have three people dancing together so that it works out more effectively?” Hao Ning speculated.

“Eh…” Xiao Hong, gazing at Hao Ning, was about to burst into laughter but he held it back, “As far as I know, Root Praying Method needs one person to take the position of invoking the souls. If several guys fill in together, I don’t suppose it will work out quite well. But you see the world so large. Maybe there exists something I haven’t learned yet?”

“Ah.” Hao Ning understood that Xiao Hong was saving his face. He told Hao Ning that he was just making delusions following a simple logic of addition in a way not embarrassing Hao Ning. Hao Ning held gratitude for him which was accompanied by some doubt, “But why does the witchcraft they use have such a huge impact on Long Fei in Virtualised Reality?”

Xiao Hong nodded also, stated his skepticism, “Your question makes sense. Zhou Yuan’s Virtualised Reality isn’t that easy to break into. We must have overlooked some details.”

Then he turned his eyes to Long Fei who was almost transparent now. In no more time, they could already see vaguely the dragon’s tendon buried into Long Fei’s body by Nezha just now.

“No!’ Xiao Hong found the situation really urgent. He put out the bamboo leaf connected to Long Fei’s life, made a grasp in the air in the direction of Long Fei, made a fluent and varied gesture and pointed to the bamboo leaf, “Graft flowers on a tree—Now!”

Then they saw the bamboo leaf trembled in the air. Long Fei’s body stopped turning colorless, while the floating leaf did instead.

“It may work out by using the soul inside the leaf to take the place of Long Fei.” Xiao Hong seemed to have worn a lot after finishing his gesture. He wiped the sweat but shook his head, “Pitiful that Long Fei can’t use it to save himself out again.”

Then they scrutinized the bamboo leaf once more. Though having suffered some damage just now, it stayed still in the air, seemingly safe and sound. It didn’t have a look of being affected by the Root Praying Method of the outsiders.

“How can your bamboo leaf be so miraculous?” Zhou Yuan was bewildered, “When I followed Mr. Zhang, he didn’t apparently mention a treasure like this? To say the least, there isn’t any documentation recording the special power of Avalokitesvara’s purple bamboo forest, is there? ”

“How can the power of Budda’s purple bamboo forest be easily documented? Meanwhile, the leaf here is not a common one. On the opposite, it’s an elite from the forest in Avalokitesvara’s Mountain Lojia. In that year when Uncle Sun sent Uncle Black Bear to Mountain Lojia,” Xiao Hong, seeing the circumstance go under control, explained with an aftershock, “he expected to be rewarded with the elite bamboo leaf for his credit of finding the guardian of the mountain. While Avalokitesvara didn’t fulfill his prospect. I didn’t suppose such good luck of Long Fei, which brought him this guarding leaf made by Brother Zhang directly just for his cutting bamboo work of only a few days. I used to think that Brother Zhang was being unfair. While with an eye to the current situation, I presume he had his own consideration.”

“Cutting bamboos?” Liu Shuai glanced at Hao Ning, “Wasn’t it the time when we met Zhang Chi Hang? He captured Long Fei and made him cut bamboos. Why does it look like an award rather than a punishment now?”

“Punishment or award, it depends on not the stuff itself, but the heart of the people involved.” Xiao Hong smiled without a judgement, “You call it an award. But who can affirm that if Long Fei dared to engage himself in such risky circumstance all because of the protection of the leaf? And is that why he gets trapped into such a disaster today?”

Hearing Xiao Hong’s speech, Hao Ning came to realize that Avalokitesvara who acted easily and casually without getting himself involved in the stuff of others, did everything as if out of his heart, but actually, he was always causing unexpected outcomes by his random decision. He pondered but didn’t figure it out. So, he fell into silence.

“Big bro, it’s seemingly going wrong!” One of the dancing guys said, “I feel the soul was locked by something. It’s already hard to draw even a little more of it.”

“I see. They have adepts as well.” The experienced big bro wasn’t surprised at all. He pondered and said, “Add two more members. I don’t believe they’ll hold it with our strength doubling.”
