Chapter 90: Heaven's Change

Outside the Absolute Yin Valley, the deafening roar of battle echoed incessantly, as various dazzling and fierce powers streaked across the sky like lightning.

Chi Xiao, Xia Xinyan, and Zha Qi leaped into the air, now fighting the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent together.

In the red mist, Chi Xiao transformed into a giant, holding a silver veil to block the serpent's venom spray, while wielding a massive light sword in one hand to fend off three of the serpent's fire-spewing heads.

Zha Qi, attached to an earth dragon, weaved through the three venom-spewing heads of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent. The serpent seemed to know that its venom was ineffective against Zha Qi and directly opened its massive jaws to tear at the earth dragon Zha Qi was riding.

Xia Xinyan, the most relaxed of the three, floated in the air like a goddess, forming strange hand seals. Occasionally, a divine hand would emerge from the void, tearing through the clouds to fiercely grab at the other three heads of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent.

These three heads of the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent, which could control the yin energy of heaven and earth, would have their yin energy immediately devoured by the three vortices floating above Shi Yan's head.

After several attempts, the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent, enraged, moved its body and desperately charged toward Shi Yan, intent on eliminating him first.

Han Feng and Ku Long stood beside Shi Yan, on high alert, carefully guarding him.

Zuo Shi, Wu Yunlian, and Chu Ping also arrived, and the six members of the Shi and Zuo families gathered together. Except for Shi Yan, they all looked up at the battle between the Nine-Headed Heavenly Serpent and the three powerful figures.

Shi Yan, eyes closed, remained indifferent, sitting motionless in his spot.

He could clearly feel the destructive force of the battle raging around him.

The battle of the Heaven Rank experts shattered all the plants outside the Absolute Yin Valley, and the earth was split into deep, bottomless ravines. The intense force of the battle even startled Shi Yan, who had his eyes closed.

However, he never stopped the absorption of yin energy by the yin vortex in his chest.

In his chest, the three yin pearls in the center of the yin vortex finally slowly condensed, emitting a faint black light, and slowly sank into the Shenque, Tianque, and Yindu acupoints.

As the three yin pearls sank into the acupoints, Shi Yan's body suddenly trembled slightly.

He focused his inner vision on his body.

Shi Yan discovered that when the three yin pearls entered the acupoints, the various negative energies that had previously existed in the acupoints suddenly surged, as if trying to assimilate the yin pearls.

Shi Yan was startled and quickly focused his attention on the changes in the three acupoints.

He suddenly remembered that each of his acupoints was filled with some negative energy, and he hadn't considered that the negative energy would repel the yin pearls when he condensed them.

In the three acupoints, the negative energies, in the form of pale white ribbons, slowly condensed.

As soon as the three yin pearls entered the acupoints, the negative energies immediately entangled them, trying to pull out the yin energy within the pearls, as if attempting to decompose them again.

However, the yin pearls, formed from a massive amount of yin energy and repeatedly refined, were the essence of yin energy. Although the negative energies in the three acupoints were extremely dominant and evil, they were far outnumbered.

Shi Yan had indeed absorbed a lot of negative energy over the past few days, but it was scattered throughout his body's acupoints.

He had a total of 720 acupoints, so the negative energy in these three acupoints was limited.

Therefore, although the negative energies in the three acupoints surged, they were unable to overcome the yin pearls due to their insufficient strength, and could not split the yin energy within the pearls again.

The yin pearls, aware of the stubborn negative energies, tightly guarded their territory and did not engage in a direct confrontation.

Gradually, the negative energies and the yin pearls in his acupoints stopped fighting.

As more yin energy was injected into the yin vortex, three new yin pearls slowly began to form in the center of the yin vortex.

With this, the three yin pearls that had sunk into the acupoints seemed to receive reinforcements and gradually took the initiative in the acupoints.

The initially dominant negative energies, unable to receive further reinforcement, had to condense in a corner of the acupoints and ceased their chaos.

The yin pearls, knowing they couldn't eliminate the negative energies, began to release dense yin energy, connecting with the yin energy in the three new yin pearls forming outside the acupoints.

Shi Yan, focusing on his body, keenly sensed the changes in the yin pearls in his acupoints and found that the yin pearls and the negative energies had reached a peaceful coexistence. He breathed a sigh of relief and continued to drive the yin vortex to absorb more yin energy.

Above Shi Yan's head, the three cloud-like vortices continued to疯狂地吸收天地阴气。

常年不见天日的绝阴平地，突然显现出第一缕阳光！

笼罩在绝阴平地虚空千年的阴气，在石岩头顶三大云山般的漩涡疯狂吸吮下，竟然到了枯竭的边缘！

阴寒的绝阴平地，因为阳光的注入，变得缓缓温暖了起来。

更多的阳光从天而降，日光普照下来，射在绝阴平地内的植物和妖兽的身上。

一株株稀奇古怪的植物，在阳光的照射下慢慢枯萎，很快软塌塌的瘪了下去。

许多妖兽疯狂咆哮着，在绝阴平地内快速奔跑，不顾一切地朝着外围的死寂沼泽冲去。

“咦！”左诗惊呼起来，“这些植物、妖兽竟害怕阳光？”

“绝阴平地上植物，是因天地阴气而生，它们早已经适应了这里的环境，如今天地阴气消失，从来不曾接触过日光的它们，自然适应不了，只能纷纷枯死。”吴韵莲解释道。

“妖兽呢？”

“也是一样。这里生活的妖兽，吸食阴气修炼，它们身体内的阴气太重，天性喜欢阴凉，不喜欢阳光的照耀。所以一发现这里日光重现，只能拼命的往外围的沼泽逃，至少那里还有毒瘴气可以遮掩，也有古树的树荫，比现在露天暴晒好得多。”

“这么说，九头天蛇一样受到影响了？”

“的确。”吴韵莲一愣，不由望向了九头天蛇。

果然。

在炎炎日光的普照下，九头天蛇那喷吐阴气的三个蛇头显得虚弱不堪。

在夏心妍一只只天神般的巨手轰击下，它那三个头只能躲闪，竟没有了还手之力。

那两个身高体壮的大汉，一直关切地看着夏心妍，到了这个时候，两人才松了一口气。

其中一人回头远远望了石岩一眼，皱着眉头，轻声道：“倒是亏了那个家伙，不是他将天地阴气吸收成这样，让绝阴平地现出阳光了，这九头天蛇还真的难对付。”

“嗯，真没想到玄阴诀会流传到这里，也不知道他从什么地方得来的……”

“轰轰轰！轰轰轰！”九头天蛇一路跌跌撞撞，突然快速朝着绝阴谷冲去。

太阳重现，九头蛇身体大损，竟然存了逃命的心思。

“追！”

爪岐哇哇大叫，第一个冲了上前，盯着那九头天蛇穷追猛打。

赤霄和夏心妍对视一眼，都知道天门在绝阴谷内，反正早晚要去绝阴谷探寻天门，要是给了九头天蛇充足的休息时间，到时候更加麻烦。

与其这样，不如趁早消灭了它！

因此，赤霄和夏心妍也一起追了上去。

绝阴谷内，惊天动地的轰鸣声，接连不断地传了出来，谷内赤霄等人应该还在和九头天蛇恶斗。

谷外，石岩头顶的三个巨大漩涡，慢慢消失。

偌大一个绝阴平地缭绕的天地阴气，不知不觉间，已被吞噬一空。

石岩胸口，新的三颗阴珠也凝炼成功，一起沉入了穴窍内。

感受着阴漩慢慢停止了旋动，再也没有了一丝阴气注入身体，他终于醒了过来。

睁开眼，石岩站了起来，看了看身旁一脸惊容的韩风、吴韵莲等人，道：“我们去绝阴谷看看吧，听声音九头天蛇快要完蛋了。”

果然，众人凝视去听，的确发现绝阴谷内的动静越来越小了。

“少爷，你怎么样？”枯隆忍不住问道。

“没事，我修炼了一种功法，却没有预料到这种功法如此诡异。”石岩皱了皱眉头，心神一动，试着催动胸口的三处阴漩。

一缕缕奇异的阴力，猛地从神阙、天阙、阴都三穴内散溢出来，阴力注入了阴漩之内，阴漩快速旋动起来，散溢出一丝丝精纯的阴力出来。

阴力不同于精元，却沿着他的手臂，一路涌了出来……

他掌心阴寒之光闪烁，一个暗青色光团，慢慢覆盖了他整个手掌。

随着他阴力的催动，那光团越来越小，竟逐渐形成一个人头大小的青色光球。

轻轻吸了一口气，石岩心神变幻，那青色光球又一点点缩小，所有的阴力原路返回，重新没入阴漩，经过阴漩转化为点点灰色光点，被六颗穴道内的阴珠给重新吸入珠子。

阴珠是玄阴诀的力量之源，通过阴漩散溢，进而涌入筋脉来施展攻击。

暗暗感受了一下，石岩立即意识到了玄阴诀的施展方法，其实和吞噬阴气的方法大致相同，只不过是反过来做而已。

“北冥伤！你来干什么！”

就在此时，从绝阴谷的方向，猛地传来赤霄的惊喝声。

谷外的众人脸色突然一变。

“快过去看看！”吴韵莲知会了众人一声，急忙朝着绝阴谷的方向冲去。

石岩和韩风、枯隆三人，也不敢怠慢，同时快速冲出，急速掠向绝阴谷。
