Chapter 389
Inside the room.
The fire was raging.
The light of the flames was comparable to lamp light, illuminating far outside the door.
Wu Xian originally wanted to at least get the oil lamp out, but the fire was getting bigger and bigger. The room was full of firelight and thick smoke, and standing outside the door felt like the skin was being roasted.
"Sigh, it's a real pity."
The resources in the room can only be abandoned.
Wu Xian turned to look at the corpse and began to grope the corpse.
He is not a pervert, he is just looking for Suixiang.
Flipping and flipping, Wu Xian felt a hard bump under the corpse's armpit, so he pinched the bump and pulled it, bringing out a blood-stained Suixiang.
"Um... let's call it Yelaixiang."
In the process of fiddling with the corpse, Wu Xian also had a guess about the identity of the corpse. It should be a creature like a weasel or a fox, which had a certain level of cultivation and began to resemble a human, but hadn't yet obtained a human body through Tao Feng.
Then he placed the corpse on the fat tiger's body and tore his coat to use as a rope to fix the corpse. In the cavern environment, the monster's corpse is a rare resource.
Wu Xian fixed the corpse while whispering to the fat tiger about the process of seeing through the trap.
This is not for showing off. After all, the fat tiger doesn't understand anything. It's just that in such a dark and oppressive environment, talking in a low voice can greatly relieve mental stress.
After the iron door fell, Wu Xian saw the corpse underneath and realized that this room was a carefully arranged trap.
Oil lamps and supplies are bait to attract people into the room.
Skeletons and doors are to make people imagine a moving story and think that the danger is outside the room, weakening the prey's vigilance.
But for Wu Xian, there were too many flaws in this arrangement.
First, when the big skeleton died, it was clutching the door handle tightly, more like wanting to pull the door open and go out than resisting the door.
Second, there were no signs of attack outside the iron door.
Third, the degree of decay of the clothes on the small skeleton and the big skeleton was different. These two skeletons most likely didn't know each other at all.
Fourth...
After knowing the trap, things became simple.
The monster was most likely hiding under the bed, because that greasy big sheet looked a bit abrupt in this room.
Wu Xian's first plan.
Was to cooperate with the fat tiger to kill everything inside and take all the resources back.
So Wu Xian while loudly confusing the thing inside, while winking at the fat tiger, pinching its cheeks, patting its head, wanting to make it realize that the enemy was hiding under the bed.
But the fat tiger looked at Wu Xian as if looking at a fool.
And if there was no cooperation from the fat tiger, Wu Xian himself wouldn't have strong combat power unless he sacrificed the Yanluo Tie, so Wu Xian could only settle for the second best and burn the whole room.
Wu Xian fixed the corpse and was ready to leave with the fat tiger.
Suddenly.
He stopped and asked the fat tiger.
"You say, is this fire burning too vigorously?"
Yes.
The flames in the room were burning eerily vigorously.
In that small room, there wasn't much combustible material, and it was a cavern environment. No matter how you think about it, it shouldn't have burned like this. Wu Xian, who was suspicious, observed for a while longer.
He found that the flames were not only vigorous but also fast, just like shortening the original long burning time, allowing all the light and heat to be released quickly.
Soon the burning stopped, and the room was covered with charred charcoal that was slightly smoking.
And among the charcoal.
There was actually a statue! Sparks kept flying out of this statue. Its red hair was like fire, its sideburns were long on half its face, it was wearing a crimson magic robe, and under the robe was golden-red chain divine armor, but its skin was almost all charred, and in some places, even bones were exposed. Divinity and evil were mixed, giving people a strange sense of horror.
There was writing on the throne below:
Tianguan - Southern Three Qi Fire Huo De Xingjun!
Wu Xian touched his chin: "Tsk, this is a bit rare."
There are sixteen common statues, which are three emperor statues, twelve official statues of heaven, earth, and water, and one foreign god statue of Duobao Tathagata.
Statues other than these sixteen are very rare.
"The statue appeared only after I burned the room, which shows that in this Fudi, if you want to get a chance to worship God, you have to commit arson..."
"In addition, why do all the statues carry a part of the negative image? The emperor statue is like this, the twelve officials are like this, and even the uncommon Fire Huo De Xingjun is like this."
Wu Xian shook his head. He couldn't give an answer to this question for now.
He lit Yelaixiang and inserted it into the incense burner.
Whoosh! The small incense burner suddenly spewed out a burst of flames, burning the sweat hair on Wu Xian's hand. This burst of flames formed three flame talismans in the air.
Iron Tree Silver Flower Curse: Fire tree silver flower combined, star bridge iron lock opened, releases scattered molten iron, can be used three times.
Temperature Raising Method: Blesses a spell, making the temperature increase when the spell is released. When the effect of the spell is less than 500 degrees, the temperature doubles. If it is higher than 500 degrees, the temperature rises by 500 degrees. Can be used twice.
Moth to the Flame Technique: Can bless existing flames, making the flames possess an 'attraction' effect, which can make the target automatically throw itself into the flames. Can be used twice.
Wu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly.
"As expected of the Fire Huo De Xingjun, the talismans produced are all flame attributes."
He didn't hesitate much and chose the Iron Tree Silver Flower Curse. The Temperature Raising Method and Moth to the Flame Technique have higher upper limits, but Wu Xian is in urgent need of attack methods now. If he had the Iron Tree Silver Flower Curse before, he wouldn't have wasted the resources of this room.
After taking the talismans and rubbing them into the poker cards, Wu Xian embarked on the way back.
He had walked far enough. If he walked further, he might not be able to return to the cavern in time, so he could only return along the original road, and explore the forks he had passed by the way.
Because the road had been walked, the return speed was much faster, and the exploration was much more calm.
Wu Xian explored a few more small forks and found some dry wood that could serve as fuel, as well as a tattered pottery jar. With these things plus that corpse, this exploration was quite worthwhile.
There were also some small malevolent entities peeking on the road, but perhaps because the fat tiger was there, those small things didn't try to attack. But what made Wu Xian a bit unhappy was that he explored so many roads and didn't find traces of other statues.
"Could it be that in this Fudi, only the Fire Huo De Xingjun statue will appear."
"If so... it would be a bit troublesome."
Wu Xian didn't think the Fire Huo De Xingjun was bad. After all, in a dark environment, flame ability is the most practical.
But the Fire Huo De Xingjun is a Tianguan, and Tianguan only gives talismans, which means that Wu Xian has no chance to get weapons, magic tools, and divine abilities in this Fudi! Even for talismans of other attributes, he has to rely on the blessing of 'Three Born One' to get them randomly, which greatly limits Wu Xian's ability to exert his capabilities.
After being low for a while, Wu Xian smiled again.
"However, this might be a good thing."
"If they are all flame talismans, I can piece together more extreme attack spells. In terms of pure lethality, it can be improved to a quite strong level."
Wu Xian thought while moving forward, and soon returned to the starting point, seeing the faint firelight.
