Nie Fan stood on the water and watched cautiously.

The surface of the lake is calm, without a trace of ripples, clear and deep, you can't see inside, and it is no different from the surrounding water. But Nie Fan didn't feel any movement here, there were no swimming fish, no duckweed, and it was surprisingly quiet.

Nie Fan's expression was solemn, this formation was not simple, it had been standing here for I don't know how many years, it had long been integrated with the environment, and it was difficult to pass through it quietly.

He stood in place and thought, not daring to try rashly, if he was not careful, he might activate the formation, and it would also be discovered by the people in the small middle of the mountain.

"This is the ......" Suddenly, under the surface of the water, Nie Fan saw stone piles that were almost exactly the same color as the lake, floating under the water surface, extremely difficult to find with the naked eye, lined up in a straight line, leading straight to the small mountain in front.

"Could it be a formation made of these stone piles?" Nie Fan stared at the stone piles, thinking about them, these stone piles were not ordinary, they had been changing color with the lake water, and they were calm in the water, level with the water surface.

Nie Fan didn't use his divine sense, and kept using his spiritual sense to capture the changes in this formation.

It has always been very calm, calm and somewhat unusual, the small mountains in the distance seem to be close in front of you and seem to be far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, sometimes clearly visible, sometimes indistinct.

Nie Fan kept turning his mind in his heart, thinking about how to get over. He thought about all his methods and experiences, but he didn't find a suitable method.

If this formation is forcibly broken, Nie Fan can do it if he asks himself, the only thing he is worried about is that he is afraid of attracting the attention of Xiao Banshan. He wanted to go to the beast silently and ask about the specific situation of Xiao Banshan.

Suddenly, Nie Fan's mind moved, and the small tower flew out of the way, covering the top of his head, and the gray light fell down, enveloping him.

The machine spirit was still very weak and could not express clearly, but Nie Fan could feel that it could take him over.

This small tower was once controlled by the Lord of Kunlun, and it is extraordinary when you think about it. Nie Fan did not hesitate and cautiously stepped towards the stone pile.

The small tower turned slightly, as if an invisible force was released, and it shook like ripples, and the void in front of it slowly shook, as if something was merging.

The strange stone piles flickered from below and upward, and then the lake above the stone piles dissolved, revealing the cylindrical heads that could be stepped on.

Nie Fan was still vigilant and stepped on it carefully. These stone piles have no abnormalities, as if they are growing on solid ground, they are extremely stable, and Nie Fan walks on them, feeling more secure than flat land.

The Divine Consciousness quietly probed over, and found that as soon as it approached, an invisible force would pop out of the water, blocking the Divine Consciousness from approaching. Lingjue didn't feel anything here, this formation Nie Fan had never seen before, but it was extremely dangerous.

He kept moving forward on these strange stone piles, and after a few steps, the stone piles behind him disappeared and sank underwater, and the stone piles in front of him came to the surface. At this time, he can only move forward, not backward.

There were nearly a hundred stone piles after walking before Nie Fan walked out of this killing array.

As far as he knew, there were three layers of mountain protection arrays in the small mid-mountain, all of which had been opened, and there were two in front of them, and there was still one left.

Nie Fan didn't continue to move forward, he walked out of the middle of the killing formation, and looked up and forward. The small half-mountain is already close in front of you, and you can already see the outline here, and even the occasional person can see a blurred figure when you pass by.

The last layer of the mountain protection array, Nie Fan got very little news, but he knew that it was a phantom array, it was a small mountain protection array, it was rumored that a hundred years ago, the supreme master of the ancient martial arts world led his disciples to attack the small mountain, but he was blocked in the large array for half a month, so the whole army was annihilated.

Nie Fan naturally didn't want to be trapped for ten days and a half months, he stood on the water, and his divine sense swept out like a tide.

The water surface is normal, there are swimming fish, there are weeds and duckweeds, and occasionally there are water birds fishing in the sky, and the calm can not be calmer anymore.

Nie Fan's divine sense didn't see anything, and there was no trace of the formation at all. He knew that this was the result of the unity of the formation and the environment, and unless the formation master was the master, it would be difficult to see the clues.

Standing on the water for a long time, Nie Fan secretly took a breath and walked forward with his feet raised. If you can't see the phantom array, you can only test it with your body, walk on the edge, and don't worry about being discovered by Xiao Banshan.

Nie Fan was invisible, holding back all his breath and moving forward in a straight line. Although it was a phantom array, Nie Fan was still cautious, maybe there would be danger inside.

It didn't take long for Nie Fan to stop, because he found that although he was constantly moving forward, he felt as if he was stepping in place, the surrounding environment had not changed, the small mountain in the distance was still that distance, and even a swimming fish that he had been paying attention to had been in that position!

Nie Fan's eyes narrowed, and his eyes flashed with different colors.

This formation is really not simple, he has never encountered it, and it is definitely not something that an ordinary formation master can arrange.

Nie Fan didn't move again, staring at the small mid-mountain in the distance, his heart turning, thinking about how to pass quietly.

"It's her." Just when Nie Fan was pondering, he was suddenly stunned, only to see a white-clothed figure appear on a raised boulder in the small middle of the mountain in the distance.

Feng Yuanmeng!

Nie Fan was deeply impressed by Feng Yuanmeng, not the original banquet, but the previous fight in Xiaobanshan, he clearly felt that the true qi in Feng Yuanmeng's body was constantly transforming into true yuan, at that time, Feng Yuanmeng was the first person he found such a person.

Nie Fan looked up at her, only to see her white clothes fluttering, as if she wanted to become a flying immortal. Unable to see the specific expression, Nie Fan felt that she seemed to be looking at him faintly.

Feng Yuanmeng's cultivation has not reached the palace level, so he will definitely not be able to find him, and he is standing here, and his confidence is not noticed by Xiao Banshan, Nie Fan was puzzled in his heart, and he stood without moving.

Feng Yuanmeng stood on the stone, his body did not move, his gaze was far away, and he kept looking at the place where he was, without a moment of deviation.

Nie Fan stood there, looking at Feng Yuanmeng in the small middle of the mountain through this phantom array.

Although he didn't know how far away he was and what was in the middle, Nie Fan faintly had a strange illusion of looking at Feng Yuanmeng.

Nie Fan's expression changed, he was sure that Feng Yuanmeng couldn't see him, but he kept looking at him, as if telling him that she could see him.

Suddenly, Nie Fan's mind moved, and the white jade butterfly that Yang Xuening had left for him flew out.

As soon as the white jade butterfly flew out, it immediately floated in front of Nie Fan's eyes, and the ice magic technique that Yang Xue Ning had left on it seemed to be alive, and the ice fonts flashed one by one.

Nie Fan looked at this white jade butterfly, if there was anything in him that could be connected with Feng Yuanmeng, it was this jade butterfly. The Feng family's Ice Spirit Decision was born from the Ice Spirit Technique, and this Jade Butterfly was very strange, and it seemed that it was not difficult to imagine that Feng Yuanmeng could feel the cultivation of the Ice Spirit Decision.

Nie Fan looked at this jade butterfly, groaned, and gently pushed forward with his hand.

As Nie Fan pushed forward, the flickering font on it became more and more crystalline, and when he left Nie Fan's hand, suddenly the light shone brightly, and a circle of ice mist overflowed, enveloping it, like a white meteor, flying directly forward at great speed.

Nie Fan's body retreated in an instant, quietly blending into the void. The change in the jade butterfly was expected by him, and he was worried that it would stir up the formation and let the people in the small mid-mountain notice it.

Jade Butterfly quickly disappeared from his sight, but the phantom array did not change in the slightest, and there was no change in the small mountains in the distance.

Nie Fan's eyes were fixed on Feng Yuanmeng, and as the jade butterfly disappeared, Feng Yuanmeng's figure moved, and he quickly flew down, rushing towards the lake. Not long after, I saw a flash of white light, and she caught it.

Although it was too far to see clearly, Nie Fan also guessed that the jade butterfly had fallen into Feng Yuanmeng's hands.

He had a strange feeling in his heart, this jade butterfly was Yang Xuening's, it was a strange thing, and it had a special spiritual surname. Since she flew towards Feng Yuanmeng, it was obviously Yang Xuening's will. This Ice Divine Trick was also passed on to him by her not long ago, could it be that she had already guessed that he would meet Feng Yuanmeng again, and this Jade Butterfly was specially given to her through his hands?

Feng Yuanmeng received this jade butterfly, her white jade hand groped on it, her eyes flashed, her pretty face was excited, and her delicate body trembled faintly, she had already received the letter, but she didn't expect that this holy relic was really sent to her!

After a long time, she looked up at the empty lake, and with a movement of her body, she galloped up the mountain.

Nie Fan saw Feng Yuanmeng disappear, and there was no surprise, it was impossible for her to find out that she had already entered the phantom array, she should have just sensed the white jade butterfly.

He was just about to come out, when he was suddenly stunned, and he intuitively felt that where the white jade butterfly flew out just now, a thin frozen passage slowly appeared, as if it had opened up the phantom array, leading straight to the small half of the mountain.

Divine psychic!

Nie Fan's heart was clear, and as soon as his body moved, he stepped on this passage, his body was like electricity, and he rushed towards the small mountain at great speed. Without causing any movement, Nie Fan took a few breaths and came out of the phantom array, and the small mid-mountain was not far away, clearly visible.

Nie Fan looked at Xiao Banshan, took a deep breath, there was no carelessness, the Void Technique was used to the extreme, he hid all his breath, and walked towards Xiao Banshan.

The small mid-levels are too mysterious, and people outside know very little. The last time he came, he only met the white-haired middle-aged man in the thatched hut and the two old men guarding the cave, and the other masters didn't see it. But the more this is the case, the more cautious Nie Fan becomes, Xiao Banshan has been standing in Chaotian Lake for I don't know how long, and it will not be unreasonable to take the lead in the face of various forces.

Nie Fan stepped on the small halfway up the mountain, followed the road last time, and walked towards the mountain.

This time, the defense of the small mid-mountain is much stricter than the last time, almost three times, one sentry, five steps and one post, and what comes out is no longer the late stage of the elephant level, the stars are dense, all over the mountain, standing on the heights, looking down, all of them have a cold look, filled with evil energy.

Nie Fan walked in the void, not worried about being discovered by them, but he wondered in his heart, where did the killing aura on these people come from? Moreover, the ancient martial arts world in the capital was discussing the return of the Kunlun faction for a while ago, where did those elite disciples of the Kunlun faction go before?

Nie Fan walked silently towards the mountain, becoming more and more curious in his heart, there are really many secrets on the earth.

Soon, Nie Fan appeared not far from the thatched hut from the last time.

He stood in the void, thinking in his heart, and suddenly, he condensed his eyes and looked at the thatched hut like a sharp sword.

The thatched hut was not tight, and Nie Fan soon saw a white-haired middle-aged man through the crack, who was studying an old book on the table with his head down.

Just when Nie Fan saw him, his body moved slightly, he turned his head, and his gaze happened to meet Nie Fan's eyes!

Nie Fan, who was standing in the void, changed his face slightly, but he did not withdraw his gaze, but looked directly at this person. Nie Fan felt last time that this person seemed to have something to do with Zhiqiong, and for that mysterious little girl, Nie Fan also wanted to know where she came from.

The most important thing is that he now has enough cultivation and strength!

The middle-aged man looked at Nie Fan, a different color seemed to flash in his eyes, and then he was full of books, and a smile appeared on his gentle face, looking at Nie Fan and saying, "Little friend, you might as well come in and sit down." ”

Nie Fan, who was hidden with the Void Technique, was shocked, he knew that it was not difficult for this person to find him, but he didn't expect that he would be found so easily, and the sound would reach his ears!

Immediately, Nie Fan's mind calmed down, his heart was fearless, and he walked forward.

Nie Fan's expression was calm, and when he walked to the door, the grass door that seemed to have experienced countless winds and rains creaked open, revealing a thatched hut that was not spacious.

Nie Fan stepped in, and saw that the middle-aged man was already sitting in front of a small stone table, with two cups of rich tea on display.

"Little friend, please take a seat." Nie Fan didn't speak, and the middle-aged man took the lead and said with a smile.

Nie Fan sat down opposite him, bowed slightly, and said, "Senior." ”

"Don't be so polite," the middle-aged man smiled and picked up the tea, "Try it, I grew it myself." ”

Although sitting in front of him, this person Nie Fan still couldn't see through, but he could vaguely feel that he had no malicious intent, he picked up the teacup with an unchanged expression, and took a breath, and then his eyes moved slightly, this tea was full of a kind of life qi, and drinking it made the muscles of his whole body seem to be alive.

"How?" The middle-aged man had white hair, was gentle and uninhibited, and said with a smile.

"Good tea." Nie Fan put down the teacup, this tea was much stronger than what he drank in the National Security Bureau, and it was even comparable to the tea leaves of the Lotus Gardener.

The middle-aged man nodded with a smile on his face, as if he was very proud of the tea he grew and was praised by others, and said: "Xiaoyou is my third guest here, since you like it, take some with you when you leave later." ”

Nie Fan knew that there were definitely not many such things, and when he heard this, he said: "I don't dare to accept such a heavy gift from my predecessors." ”

"Hehe, it's okay," the middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand, "Last time, it was Zhiqiong's little girl who brought you up, right?" ”

Nie Fan had already guessed in his heart, but he didn't deny it, and nodded: "Yes." ”

The more smiles on the middle-aged man's face, he looked at Nie Fan and said, "I'll just say, whoever can escape my perception is that little girl." ”

"Seniors know Zhiqiong?" Nie Fan's face was calm, but he was puzzled in his heart, he remembered that Zhiqiong didn't seem to know the person in front of him.

"When she was very young," the middle-aged man seemed to remember something, and his smile was extremely bright, "At that time, the little girl was not long born, and she was eccentric and caused trouble everywhere. ”

Nie Fan also smiled secretly in his heart, with the surname of that little girl who can't walk when she sees the treasure, it's strange if she doesn't cause trouble. But the little girl has shown too many miracles, and even he is difficult to do in many places, and he has such an ability at a young age, and the origin must not be simple.

However, this kind of questioning is a taboo thing, whether it is in the cultivation realm or the ancient martial arts realm, and Nie Fan didn't ask any questions, just sat here calmly.

The middle-aged man called himself over, not just because he wanted to know if it was Zhiqiong who came last time.

After laughing for a while, the middle-aged man slowly came back to his senses, looked at Nie Fan and said, "Xiaoyou, are you here to see that strange beast in the lake?" ”

"Yes." Nie Fan nodded, he knew that the last time he saw that strange beast, he must not have hidden it from everyone, otherwise how could Feng Yuanmeng be able to stop him on their way.

The middle-aged man was not surprised on his face, poured another cup for Nie Fan, and said, "Its longevity is not much, so it is natural to want to go back." However, the teleportation arrays on the earth were all established during that war, and there are not many left, the most likely ones are the Lotus Temple and the Barbarian Court, but even these two places are difficult to enter and exit casually, so they have been delayed until now. ”

Nie Fan nodded in his heart, Lotus View He had been there once, but he didn't really enter, but even so, he knew the horror of it, there was a terrible garden keeper in the Dan period. And if he hadn't just solved the trespass in Zhoushan and been recognized by the Barbarian Court, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to find the final teleportation array.

The middle-aged man took another drink, and his expression seemed to be thinking about something.

Nie Fan didn't bother, and also picked up the teacup.

After a while, the middle-aged man looked up at Nie Fan and said, "Xiaoyou entered the barbarian court, what special things have you seen?" ”

Nie Fan didn't know what the middle-aged man was going to do, thought about it, and said, "No, but there is a spirit in the barbarian court." ”

The middle-aged man was not surprised, and said: "Back then, the barbarian king raised a lot of foreign objects, most of which were companions, but one of them was very special, it was raised with his essence blood, and he should still be alive now." ”

Nie Fan's face changed slightly when he heard this, how powerful the barbarian king is, it is rumored that it is comparable to the cultivation of the peak of the Jiedan, what can allow him to raise it with his own essence and blood!? What's even more terrifying is that this thing is still alive, is it true, thousands of years have passed, is there anyone else on earth who is its opponent?

"The Lord of Kunlun back then also raised a divine beast, and he should still be alive now." Without waiting for Nie Fan's expression to recover, the middle-aged man said again.

Divine beasts!

What kind of powerful beast is this, which can only be called such in the mouth of a middle-aged person?

Nie Fan's eyes flickered, there were really too many things hidden on the earth, which was difficult to guess.

"Senior, can you also have a small mid-mountain?" Nie Fan groaned and asked.

The middle-aged man glanced at Nie Fan and said, "There is no small mountain, but there is one in the capital." ”

Nie Fan's expression was slightly stunned, this sentence seemed to be a little mysterious, hesitated for a moment, and said: "What do you mean by the senior, in the hands of the National Security Bureau?" ”

The middle-aged man seemed to see the worry in Nie Fan's heart, and said with a smile, "The divine beast has its own consciousness and is never in anyone's hands. ”

The middle-aged man's words were not said thoroughly, Nie Fan had more doubts in his heart, but he also knew that it was useless to ask now, so he pressed these things in his heart, looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Senior, do you know what the changes in the ancient martial arts world are?" ”

The middle-aged man's face changed, his eyes were a little melancholy, and he sighed: "A thousand-year legacy." ”
