The steep cliff wall rose rapidly in front of her eyes, and the weeds between the cliff crevices were dragged into a green line, and then quickly disappeared, the cold wind beat her cheeks, Mo Shanshan tightly grasped Ning Que's belt with her left hand, and there was no panic in her eyes, let alone exclaim, because she believed that people like Ning Que would never commit suicide.

With a bang, the big black umbrella opened in the air, and the two of them shook their bodies heavily, and the speed of their descent suddenly slowed down a lot, leaving the cliff wall along the direction of the wind, and drifting towards the broad-leaved forests not far from their feet.

Her eyes were narrowed by the wind, and she raised her head to see that the big black umbrella covered the snowy sky, and it was only slightly deformed by the strong mountain wind, and she couldn't see any signs of disintegration, and she couldn't help but be a little curious, what kind of material this black umbrella was made of, and it was so strong.

Ning Que held the handle of the big black umbrella tightly with his right hand, as tight as steel, and his left hand wrapped around the waist of the bookworm, staring at the ground that was getting closer and closer, and there was no extra mind to pay attention to the feeling of warmth between his fingers. He hugged the little girl and jumped off the cliff with an umbrella many times, knowing that although the black umbrella was strong, the umbrella area was still too small, and it would not feel good when he landed.

When they were still a few feet away from the ground, an extremely faint and pure talisman was released from Mo Shanshan's fingers, and the air suddenly became as if it had become viscous for a few minutes, and the speed at which the two of them fell slowed down again.

Ning Que knew that Mo Shanshan had made a move, so he stopped his preparation to cast the talisman and hugged her waist tightly.

With a muffled sound, his knees bent slightly, and he landed heavily on the ground outside the woods, and the skeletal and muscular joints tightened and loosened at the moment of landing, perfectly unloading most of the impact, and the girl in his arms seemed to notice nothing.

Ning Que let go of his arm and nodded to her.

Mo Shanshan shook his head and calmly left his arm.

There are countless fallen leaves on the ground outside the woods, and they are a little soft to step on, I don't know how many years they have accumulated to accumulate so thick, but the wonderful thing is that there is no smell of corruption.

Although this forest is a broad-leaved forest, after all, it has just seen the light of day, and the green leaves between the tips are tender and tender, unable to cover the starry snowflakes leaking from the side of the snow cliff, and it is like a starry green.

The two walked into the green forest and disappeared without a trace in a moment.

………… Walking into the green forest, gradually moving away from the snow cliffs, there are no more snowflakes leaking from the world outside the mountain, but the sky above the valley is still gray, and the stars and greenery in the forest are lined together, which is even more bleak.

I don't know if it's because of the pressure brought by the Covenant of Breaking the Realm, or because Prince Longqing mentioned Sangsang who was far away in Chang'an City, Ning Que was very quiet after entering the forest, not as active as before at all, just walking silently.

Mo Shanshan was also very silent, looking at his back, thinking about the previous conversations between the snow cliffs, thinking about the little maid who made Ning Que disobey his original intention and had to protect him, thinking about the gamble that was not bloody but extremely cruel, he was gloomy and worried for a while, silently stepping on the fallen leaves in the forest, and he didn't make any sound.

From the top of the snow cliff, this verdant valley is not big, but when you really come to it, you find that this valley does not look magnanimous, but it is far-reaching, and the two of them have not reached the end of the valley after walking wordlessly in the forest for half a day.

This place is far enough away from the snow cliff, and he is no longer worried about being heard or chased by the prince of Longqing, Mo Shanshan looked at the big black umbrella behind Ning Que, and finally couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, and asked, "Why didn't you fight before?"

Ning Que stopped, looked back at her and asked, "Why are you fighting?"

Mo Shanshan looked into his eyes and said seriously: "When you taught me to fight in the carriage, you once said that when the two tigers meet, the most important thing to remember is ...... The brave wins. ”

Ning Que was silent for a moment and then replied, "In front of Long Qing, I can't talk about being a tiger yet. ”

Mo Shanshan glanced at the brocade bag hanging on his wrist and said, "With the rune in hand, a child can become a tiger." ”

Ning Que shook his head and said: "The master has spent too much effort to write a rune that can be used without confusion, and I can't abuse it as an apprentice, and you and I are both people in the rune path, so it should be very clear that this kind of excitation talisman is not made by itself, and it is difficult for the talisman master to send out the real talisman in the meantime, and I am not sure that I will hurt Longqing with this talisman." ”

Mo Shanshan raised his little face slightly, looked at him and said seriously: "And me." ”

Ning Que said sincerely: "Thank you, but after all, this is a matter between me and Longqing, there is no reason for you to take risks, not to mention that you came here after receiving the edict of the Divine Temple, it is impossible for me to let you turn against the Divine Temple for me." ”

He looked at the cliff that he could vaguely see outside the Qinglin and said, "The purpose of our entry into the mountain is for the Heavenly Book, and in the end, I will still face the Prince of Longqing." He wanted to push me into a desperate situation where I couldn't retreat, and I also had the same idea, and it would be good for the rest of the world to get rid of him in advance. ”

Mo Shanshan frowned slightly, and said, "Where is the prince of Longqing who is such an easy person to solve." ”

Ning Que said: "In the past, it was naturally difficult to solve, but now that there is a covenant to break the realm, the situation is completely different, as long as I can break through the realm before him, then he will be solved." ”

He spoke slowly, in a calm tone, as if he was saying something for granted.

Mo Shanshan looked at him, and suddenly found that he never seemed to have thought that he would lose this bet, nor did he think that even if he won the bet, what would happen if the other party repented? Although that Xiling Divine Son was devout to serve Haotian, if he really wanted to self-destruct and leave the temple, the oath made in the name of Haotian was not necessarily really binding.

She asked, "What if you lose this bet?"

Ning Que replied simply: "I won't lose." ”

Mo Shanshan asked without hesitation: "If." ”

Ning Que was slightly stunned, and said: "If you lose, then you lose, I have to go through a lot of hardships to get the hang of it, will I really be stupid enough to fulfill the gambling contract and then turn myself into a waste?"

Mo Shanshan couldn't believe his ears and asked, "What about the master's reputation?"

Ning Que thought about Lin Ling, the immortal Great Nian Master in the Wang Ting Tang camp, and laughed.

"I haven't met the teacher yet, but according to the descriptions of the senior brothers and sisters, he probably doesn't care. On the other hand, if I really choose to make myself a waste and leave the academy pitifully after losing the bet, he will probably be very angry, angry at how he took in such a stupid student. ”

Mo Shanshan still didn't understand this sentence.

Ning Que explained: "The meaning of this sentence is that the master doesn't care much about his reputation. ”

"What if Prince Longqing loses to you?"

"If I go first, I can't help him fail to fulfill his contract. ”

"It's not so easy to cross the border. If you advance to the Cave Xuan Realm, you are not even a low-grade person, how can you cross the two realms and win? No matter how good you are at fighting, the gap between the realms is still too big. ”

Ning Que looked at her, and suddenly asked very seriously: "What will happen if the realm breaker is suddenly disturbed by the outside world at the most critical moment of breaking the realm?"

Mo Shanshan didn't know why he cared about this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "It depends on what kind of interference from the outside world is." ”

Ning Que said: "The most direct and strong one. ”

Mo Shanshan said: "That realm breaker will suffer a violent backlash, and it is even possible that there is no hope of breaking the realm in this life. ”

Ning Yi nodded and said, "This is the best." ”

Then the two fell silent again.

………… It seemed that he was walking silently and aimlessly, but in fact, Ning Que had been following a certain direction, and that powerful and proud aura was like a bright light between heaven and earth, guiding him through the verdant green forest, through a swamp, and then through a muddy and rugged damp foggy mountain road, and before coming to a lake.

The area of the lake is not large, the radius is not more than a hundred zhang, the shore of the lake is meandering, the water waves are light, and I don't know how many years it has existed in this strange valley, and there is no trace of artificial carving.

The verdant valley is warmer than the snow peaks of Tianqi Mountain outside, but it is actually still a little cold, and it is more like the winter of Chang'an City, where the water on the shore of the lake is covered with extremely thin blocks of ice, which are scattered by the waves, and gradually condense on the water surface that is a little calmer in the distance.

It seems that there are no artificial traces, it is a natural lake in the valley, but Ning Que does not think so, because the familiar and intimate powerful aura comes from the depths of the lake, he stood on the shore of the lake and stared at the lake for a long time, through the clear water, he saw the white sand and cobblestone at the bottom of the water, but did not see anything abnormal.

Mo Shanshan couldn't sense that powerful aura, but she could clearly sense the existence of other things, walked to Ning Que's side, looked at the fish swimming slowly in the lake, and said softly: "This lake is a big array, and the strange thing is that this lake itself is the eye of the formation, which seems to be a bit contrary to the principle of the formation." ”

Ning Que was silent for a moment and then said, "The formation of the Unknown Land is naturally a little different from the ordinary formation. ”

"Are you saying that this lake is the Demon Sect Mountain Gate?"

She looked at the distant snow peaks reflected on the lake, and suddenly remembered some records in the canon, and said in a trembling voice: "There used to be a record in the canon, there is a lake in the Demon Sect Mountain Gate, is it this lake." ”

Ning Que said: "It shouldn't be wrong. ”

Mo Shanshan looked at the ordinary small lake in front of him, and couldn't believe that he had discovered the Demon Sect's mountain gate so easily, and said, "I really didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to witness the remains of the Demon Sect's mountain gate in my life. ”

If it were another cultivator, he would definitely be very excited to see with his own eyes the Demon Sect Mountain Gate that had been annihilated in time, and to be able to see the legendary unknowable place, and even jump into the lake with excitement and madness.

If it was another time period, Ning Que might have been so excited, but now he was very calm, because whether it was the Heavenly Book Ming scroll hidden at the bottom of the lake or the relics of that senior of the sect, it had nothing to do with him for the time being.

He suddenly asked, "Does this lake have a name?" Is there any mention of it in the Xiling canonical records?"

Mo Shanshan asked, "Why do you care about this?"

Ning Que looked at her and said with a smile: "In the future, the history books will record that Ning Que, the thirteenth disciple on the second floor of the Academy, broke through the realm by this lake, how can this lake not have a name? ”

Mo Shanshan sighed, thinking to himself how difficult and mysterious it is to break through the realm, where can it be broken if it is broken? This is too arrogant, and he said helplessly: "The Demon Sect calls itself Daming Sect, so this lake is called Daming Lake by them. ”
