ninety thousand miles

Chapter 420 Circle
Li Chuan stared at the 'full moon'.

The sound of the water gradually became mixed with the sound of the wind in his ears. The sound of the water gradually grew louder and echoed around him. The moonlight swayed on the water and gradually surrounded him.

The moonlight continued to expand until it became grids of light in his field of vision. They were intertwined, of varying thickness, and constantly changing.

He was immersed in these changes. The light was strung into a series of lines, which intertwined until they formed a structure of a large circle with three small circles, then stabilized and separated, floating aimlessly. Knowing that they had hit an invisible barrier, Li Chuan saw the circles hanging on it, the large circle quickly melted, and then the three small circles were embedded in the barrier.

The moonlight spread across the water waves.

It was not until Li Chuan saw the circles of different sizes hanging on the deep silk that the moonlight tried to penetrate into them, but quietly disappeared in the ripples of the swaying water waves.

That's right.

He tried to pull himself away, he knew he was not sober at the moment, he couldn't tell if he was drunk or in a dream, but more moonlight surrounded him.

"Li Chuan! Li Chuan!" The little mouse shouted his name loudly and used various methods to isolate the light spot from its sea of ​​consciousness.

Li Chuan did not hear the little mouse's voice. He was completely immersed in the moonlight, and the only sound in his ears was the increasingly loud sound of water. He looked at the "full moon", and the grids of light appeared again. He gradually found some rules among the different thicknesses - the changes in these lights had a certain pattern, and they were happening around some thicker light spots.

He slowly found those spots of light. They flickered like breathing, sometimes bright and sometimes dim. The moonlight followed their rhythm and spread...

imprint.

He realized that those spots of light formed a mark. And at this moment, no one, no force was driving this mark...

Li Chuan stretched out his hand and reached into the pot. When his fingers touched the cold water, he shuddered. He saw thousands of silky moonlight climbing up his fingers. The circular structures he had seen before quickly hung on the pads of his fingers and soon spread out into a dense layer, like a tree that was about to grow out of his hand...

"Li Chuan!"

Li Chuan finally heard the voice of the little mouse.

He quickly took out the Tianyin pot with his other hand and pressed it with his thumb, making a rubbing sound.

After the gentle and soft sound of the pot rang out, the moonlight dissipated from his hands, and he finally woke up.

Li Chuan stood up with the Tianyin pot in his hand, quickly took two steps back, and looked at his pot from a distance.

He felt a little scared. It seemed that the Four Gods Palace was not completely safe.

Just as he was about to thank the little mouse, he heard some noise not far away. He looked up and saw a figure in a wide robe with big sleeves slowly falling to the ground from mid-air.

"Old Palace Master?" Li Chuan recognized the person.

The old palace master nodded and said, "I felt that the restriction I left in the pot had dissipated, so I came to take a look. I arrived half a minute ago and was watching from afar. When I realized something was wrong and was about to take action, you had already broken free with your own strength."

"Oh, so..." Li Chuan scratched his head. He felt a little confused and his body was a little sluggish. He made up his mind that he would go to sleep directly after drinking and not mess around.

After he recovered completely, the old palace master said, "Rest well, we can talk tomorrow."

"Okay, then this pot..." said Li Chuan.

"Let me take it first." said the old palace master.

"Thank you for your hard work, old palace master." Li Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll go back to sleep first. Tomorrow..."

"When you wake up, come to Jinyang Peak to find me." said the old palace master.

"Okay." Li Chuan waved to the old palace master and walked into the house. When he lay down on the bed, he realized that he was sweating all over. He was so tired that he couldn't move a finger, so he wrapped himself in the quilt and fell asleep. When he woke up the next morning, he stared at the beams for a long time with his eyes open, and then silently said "little mouse" three times in his heart.

As soon as he finished reading, the little mouse's angry voice rang in his ears: "Li Chuan! What happened to you last night! Didn't I tell you that it was something from the Gods, and it was very dangerous! Why didn't you tell me and touch the Tianyin Pot without even taking it?"

Li Chuan rubbed his head. It was already aching slightly, and the noise from the little mouse made it even more painful.

Finally, the little mouse said he was tired and stopped talking. Li Chuan took the opportunity to speak and said, "I saw a few spots of light in there yesterday. Can you help me check if they are the demon marks you mentioned?"

"Where?" asked the little mouse.

"Wait for me to draw it for you." Li Chuan stood up, found paper and pen, and drew the light spots one by one based on the image.

The little mouse squatted on a corner of the paper, staring at the black spot on the paper without blinking.

"How is it?" Li Chuan asked after he finished painting.

The little mouse said, "It's not a demon mark."

"Isn't it?" Li Chuan was a little disappointed. He was unwilling to give up and asked, "What was the demon mark you saw before?"

"I... I don't know how to describe it. But what you drew is definitely not a mark of the demons. It is something that already existed in this device." said the little mouse.

"Is that so..." Li Chuan asked, "Then what do you think these light spots do?"

The little mouse said: "The magic weapons of the gods are all very strange. Next time... next time when you study, remember to wake me up."

Li Chuan heard something else, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

The little mouse said as a matter of course: "After you figure it out, just copy it."

Li Chuan was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, I'm going to Jinyang Peak later to discuss last night's incident with the old palace master. I guess we'll have to study it a bit more. Do you want to listen?"

The little mouse raised his head and said, "Okay, remember to call me."

"Will you be discovered?" Li Chuan asked.

"How is that possible?" The little mouse sneered, "Even Tiansu can't find me, a cultivator. He can't even see me when I stand in front of him."

"You said it yourself." Li Chuan stretched and said, "I'll clean up and have breakfast and then I'll be there. You don't need to sleep any more."

“I know,” said the little mouse.

Li Chuan ate something, washed up, changed his clothes, and then walked to the teleportation array. In the blink of an eye, he was at the foot of Chiyang Peak. He looked up, thinking about how to get up, when he heard the voice of the old palace master.

The old palace master said, "Stand still, I will take you up."

"Okay." Li Chuan responded while looking around for the old palace master. Then he found that his feet had left the ground. In just a blink of an eye, he passed through the numerous mazes on Jinyang Peak and stood on the top of the mountain.

The old palace master was standing in front of him. After seeing him come back to his senses, the old palace master asked him, "How do you feel now?"

Li Chuan replied: "It's OK. I don't think I drank too much yesterday. I even walked back by myself..."
