Chapter 90: Gather in Qingru Town
And stepping into this entrance, there is a winding path that leads to an unknown distance;
Follow this path to a distance of three thousand and three hundred and thirty feet, and you will step into a dark red world.
This is what spiritually calls the Killing Ground...... Bloody Gate.
This is also a closed inner world, and a blood-colored sun in the sky, emitting an eerie red light, clothed the whole world with a hint of scarlet;
A small stream of feet wide meandered through the ground, leading from an unknown height, to the courtyard houses below, all of which were dark red.
And what flowed in the stream was not clear water, but a bright red liquid like blood, and it exuded a rich evil aura.
The stream leads downward, and countless branches appear in front of the courtyard, flowing to different areas, and there are independent cultivation rooms in that area, if you step into the cultivation room, you will see that in the middle, there is a pool of length, width and height, which is filled with the dark red liquid.
The further the stream goes, the wider the tributaries that divide out, and the more intense the bloody aura it contains.
The main road flowed all the way to the south, and entered a huge fortress thirty-three feet high, the roof was rounded, and a huge white flag was planted on the roof, and there was no wind to automatic.
The banner was painted with a huge blood-colored skeleton, terrifying and infiltrating;
On the ground of the first floor of the fortress, a square pool the size of three zhang was filled with the same dark red liquid.
At this time, in this castle, a middle-aged man soaked in the blood pool, with red eyes, looked at the east side of the blood pool.
There were dozens of long dark red signs, in four rows, and the further inside, the fewer they were, until in the last row, there were only six;
And each sign is marked with a different text in the center.
However, at this time, the original complete brand was all shattered, and it seemed to be a long time ago.
"It's been a month, and it's time for the Blood Lotus to arrive in Qingfeng City! The truth behind this is finally going to be revealed!"
......
Qingru Town has become a dead town, and all the villagers are missing, and no one is alive or dead.
This can't help but make the Dacang Dynasty panic, because these people suddenly lost contact, like the world evaporated, and there was not even a little news to come out.
And among these disappeared people, there is also Hu Yunhai, the first general of the dynasty, and his iron-blooded guard.
The high-level of the Dacang Dynasty promised huge rewards, recruited strange people, and stepped into Qingru Town, hoping to find out the truth.
But all those who stepped into it disappeared without a trace, as if they had never been there.
In desperation, it had to be completely sealed off and no one was allowed to set foot in it;
And everything in Qingru Town was directly sealed, which became a big trick case in Dacang.
But when mortals can't do anything, there is a descendant of a hidden place, who has stepped through thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally stepped into Qingru Town.
For example, the Cold Snow Sect, the Peach Blossom Spring, and the Blood Demon Gate.
At this time, at the western entrance of Qingru Town, a woman in a pink costume came slowly, her hair was pulled up, her face was like a peach blossom, her beautiful eyes flashed with curiosity and bright brilliance, and she was full of wind and dust, and at her waist, there was a delicate long sword, which had the taste of a swordsman.
This is the ancient vine of the Peach Blossom Spring, which has finally arrived here after a long journey of nearly a month;
But she didn't see any trace of the humanoid mountain peak in the distance, so she had to step into Qingru Town, wanting to rest for a while and rush over again.
But when he stepped into this town, Gu Vine didn't see even a single person, and all the people in the town were gone.
It's an empty town.
She walked down the deserted town, her brow furrowing more and more.
The smell here made the ancient vines extremely uncomfortable, and all the courtyards in the town, although the doors were wide open, were all the same, and there was no one at home.
She originally thought that there were only one or two families, but from the beginning to the end, she didn't find a single person, and this strange scene also made her more and more dignified!
"The one who came is a disciple of Peach Blossom Spring!"
Just when she was puzzled, a crisp voice suddenly sounded!
The ancient vines followed the sound, and suddenly turned around, only to see a man dressed in black, with a handsome face and a height of seven feet, walking slowly from a mansion.
He was also dressed in an ancient robe, his hair was pulled up, and his whole body was filled with a sense of cruelty, ruthlessness, and coldness.
"Who are you?" said the ancient vine vigilantly, and his right hand unconsciously touched the hilt of the sword at his waist.
She felt that the person who came was an immortal cultivator, and his strength was not much different from herself, and he was also a Qi Sense Five Heavens.
"Fairy, don't be nervous, Zhong Han in the Cold Snow Sect!" Zhong Han saw the movements of the ancient vines, and hurriedly explained, lest she suddenly attack, although she was not weaker than the other party, but it was not necessary to waste spiritual power for no reason.
And there is weirdness everywhere here, and if someone sits on the fisherman's power, it will really outweigh the losses.
"Hanxue Sect, why did you come here?" Gu Vine sighed slightly, she thought that she would not be born for a few years, the way of the world had changed, and the cultivation of immortals was running all over the ground, and there were as many immortals as dogs, it turned out to be a false alarm.
"It's not a secret, I was traveling outside, and I didn't intend to see the evil here, so I came to check, I didn't expect to meet a fairy, it was really fate!" Zhong Han's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't tell the truth, after all, it was very important to come to explore the Forest of Lingyuan.
"What did Senior Brother Zhong discover?" the corners of Gu Vine's mouth rose slightly, revealing a charming smile.
She knew that Zhong Han must have her own tasks, and it was possible that they would be the same as her own, but since the other party didn't say it, she didn't plan to find out.
"No, but I guess that people here can't have disappeared for no reason, most likely something happened to me, and I found something that looks like ashes in someone's home, but because of the rain and wind, I'm not 100% sure. Zhong Han said with a solemn face, he had come here yesterday, and after investigation, he found that in addition to the evil qi and resentment that rushed to the sky, there was also a faint dead air.
Because the Cold Snow Sect originally cultivated the power of death and cold, he had an instinctive perception of these breaths, but because there was no corpse here, although the death qi was very weak, he still found it.
"This place is not far from Qingfeng City, slaughtering the city under the nose of the sect, either it is a person with a high realm, or it is an extremely vicious person, and it is a great disapproval to attack an unarmed mortal!" Listening to Zhong Han's speculation, the ancient vines were also frosty.
Immortal cultivators have the prohibition of immortal cultivators, that is, they are not allowed to harm mortals, otherwise they will be attacked by a group, even if they are some people who are extremely evil, they will not come to the mortal world to do evil, which is against the way of heaven.
Just as the two continued to discuss, a beautiful woman dressed in red walked slowly.
She has black and bright hair, draped over her shoulders, and there are a few tiny braids between her hair, which looks youthful and lively;
She has a fair complexion, a blood-colored lotus flower on her forehead, which adds to the charm, and there is a trace of evil in the depths of her dark and bright eyes.
"Blood Lotus Gate, Blood Lotus!" Blood Lotus Lotus stepped over, calmly glanced at the ancient vines and Zhong Han, and opened her mouth crisply, her voice had a kind of coldness that was thousands of miles away.
Zhong Han and the ancient vines' eyes shrank, although the Blood Demon Sect was also one of the four major forces, but they were brutal by nature, using blood to enter immortals, killing as a skill, and they had always been at odds with the Peach Blossom Paradise and the Cold Snow Sect.
At this time, it suddenly appeared, making the two of them unconsciously nervous.
"You don't have to be nervous, maybe we came here for the same purpose!" the corner of Blood Lotus's right mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of mockery in her expression, but it was quickly hidden.
She looked at the two of them and said calmly, "I have explored the surroundings, there is no living person in the whole town, there is a suspected mortal soldier garrison in front of it, and there is no one in the camp, but in the camp, I found a blood-colored stone, which is suspected to be a sound transmission stone, but the breath of the imprint on it is extremely unfamiliar, at least I have never seen it."
As she spoke, Blood Lotus took out a blood-colored oval stone and handed it over without pretentiousness.
Gu Vine and Zhong Han stretched out their hands to take it, looked at it for a moment, and shook their heads helplessly, this is indeed a sound transmission stone, but they don't know which force it belongs to.
Each faction's sound transmission stone has a specific mark, for example, the Peach Blossom Source is with the Peach Blossom Mark, the Cold Snow Sect is the Snow Flower Mark, and the Blood Demon Gate is the Skull Mark.
And even if there is no sign, because of the different cultivation methods, there will also be a residual spiritual aura belonging to its forces on it.
For example, the spiritual power of the Peach Blossom Paradise is mild, the Cold Snow Sect tends to be cold, and the Blood Demon Sect has a soft spot for blood and qi, and the sound transmission stones they use will have corresponding breath residues.
And this sound transmission stone, after being identified by the three of them, does not belong to any of the forces, and the breath it remains is extremely unfamiliar.
This also made the three of them feel in crisis, could it be that there is a new force in this world, and they don't know it?
"There's no information available here at the moment, I think we can join forces to infiltrate the Spirit Source Forest, maybe there will be the answer we want!" Blood Lotus glanced at the two of them, withdrew the sound transmission stone, and took the lead towards the outside of the town, as if he didn't want to say a word of nonsense.
And Gu Vine and Zhong Han hesitated slightly and chose to follow.
The three of them left Qingru Town in no particular order and walked towards the Forest of Lingyuan in the distance.
But after several days of trekking, climbing through several peaks, and climbing over the top of the mountain, what I saw was a huge lake, and a small island in the lake stood quietly, and there was no trace of a high mountain.
And the once towering human-shaped mountain was nowhere to be seen, which made the three of them not only have a trace of doubt.
"We're not in the wrong place, are we? There's no Breeze City here?"
But all they could do was the whirring wind and the faint sound of waves in the lake.
Just when the three of them looked at each other and were full of doubts, an old man with gray hair, a hunched body, dressed in gray cloth, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, slowly walked up from the bottom of the mountain.
