Chapter 353: Murder and Treasure

353. Murder and treasure hunting

The night was dark, and all the lights in the Incense Valley had been extinguished, but those ordinary disciples who were keeping vigil had not relaxed in the slightest, walking around the valley and patrolling.

Under the light of the hazy moonlight, the valley mouth looked like a beast opening its mouth in the dark, looking a little gloomy and poignant.

Although the history of the Burning Incense Valley Sect is not as good as that of Qingyunmen and the Demon Sect, it has been operating this place for more than eight hundred years, and its influence in the local area is by no means worse than the first two, and it is a holy place in the minds of ordinary people here.

In the shadows of the night, Luo Yu quietly sneaked in, and was greeted by a patchwork of palaces and pavilions. Looking at the architectural style, it is quite similar to the Central Plains, but in subtle places, such as the corners of the window lintels and eaves, there are also some fierce beast carvings from time to time, but they are not found in the Central Plains.

Obviously, in the past 800 years, the Incense Valley has also been influenced by the local customs of the southern frontiers.

Before entering, Luo Yu's divine sense had already dispersed, because he knew that the biggest obstacle to infiltrating this Incense Valley was not those patrolling disciples, but a strange little beast called a gray dolphin.

Although this strange beast is not an ancient divine beast, there is nothing terrible, and its courage is still very small, but its hearing is extremely sensitive, and its sense of smell is more than ten times that of dogs.

Under the divine sense, those hidden little beasts are all in full view, they are all distributed in the corners of the valley, but there is no middle in the valley, I think the incense valley is not worried that someone can enter the valley through these small beasts.

Shocking a gray dolphin to death with a strong divine sense is like tearing a gap in the alarm line arranged by the Incense Valley, and then Luo Yu floats into this gap.

The night was deep, and Luo Yu floated through the valley like a ghost, and with his style, no one could find out.

As you move forward. Countless pavilions are rapidly regressing, and the Incense Valley is known as the pillar of the righteous path in the world, although it is low-key on weekdays, but after all, it is a great faction that has been thriving for eight hundred years, and what gradually appears on this road is the foundation of this gate.

Under the darkness of the night. I saw more than a dozen paths, large or small, connected to each other, scattered like human blood, deep into the darkness deep in the Incense Valley.

On both sides of the road, there are either ordinary disciples' residences, or tall and majestic halls, and in the middle of these buildings, most of them are flowers and trees, there are green bamboos and cold plums, and there are also bright and magnificent peonies and peonies. They are in groups with each other, looking at each other from a distance, and the surrounding halls are integrated, and they have their own flavors.

Although there are groups of pavilions in this incense valley, surrounded by each other, and the roads are vertical and horizontal, and they are intricate, but under Luo Yu's divine sense. I quickly found the location of the Xuanhuo Altar.

It is a secluded path with a secluded path. It is extremely long, winding to the depths of the Incense Valley.

There were no other pavilions around the path, there were trees and flowers on both sides, and the night wind blew, and the shadows of the trees swayed under the light of the moon in the sky. It looks like some kind of demon is dancing around, revealing a hint of weirdness.

Luo Yu was very fast, and not long after, a white square stone tablet suddenly appeared on the side of the road in front of him, and he looked at it fixedly. I saw that it was engraved with two lines of eight characters "Xuanhuo Heavy Land, Disciples Stop".

Although the stele looks ordinary, it seems to be a dividing line, and after passing the stele, somehow, although the path still zigzags forward, the trees and flowers on both sides of the road are obviously much rarer.

First the grass on the ground gradually disappeared, then the low shrubs, and finally even the trees on both sides gradually thinned out. Not to mention that the ground began to crack, but even the branches of the remaining trees had turned yellow, as if the land had been scorched due to the extreme lack of water in the vicinity.

Maybe Incense Valley is confident that no outsiders will be able to break in, and there is not even a single disciple guarding this Xuanhuo land, which facilitates Luo Yu's actions.

I saw that his figure flashed, and soon appeared in a large open space, and a wave of heat that blew from nowhere suddenly rushed to his face.

In the center of the clearing was a large circular altar with a suspended bottom, supported by thirteen huge stone pillars made of white jade that were three feet high. There are a total of twelve white jade pillars on the edge of the altar, each of which is as thick as two people hugging, and the thickest white jade pillar in the middle of the altar requires at least five or six people to hug it.

Above the altar, all the buildings were made of a strange crimson stone, with steps and balustrades. In the center of the altar, there is a tall and majestic hall, in the shape of a pagoda, with three floors, each of which is about half smaller than the next, but each floor is almost incredibly high.

At first glance, this altar was simply a huge burning red flame, piercing the sky.

"This is the Xuanhuo Altar!" Luo Yu took a deep breath, the air here was actually very hot!

The whole tower-like altar did not even have a window, and it was all surrounded by huge red stones, except for a door at the bottom that was one foot high and six feet wide.

Luo Yu flew up and landed lightly in front of the door made of unknown wood, and his face turned pale, because his divine sense had swept into the altar.

At the same time, inside the altar, an old man with a clear and thin face was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, he was dressed in a gray robe, simple and simple, and his old face was wrinkled, and he did not look outstanding.

But at this time, at the moment when Luo Yu fell in front of the door and his divine consciousness dispersed, the old man's closed eyes suddenly opened, and the divine light in his cloudy eyes was bright, staring at the wooden door extremely sharp.

"Who?" A low cry came from Shangguan Ce's mouth, and his face became solemn, because no one answered his words, and the heavy wooden door slowly opened with a "squeak" sound.

The person who came was obviously not from the Incense Valley!

The faint blue light flashed, and in this scorching hot Xuanhuo altar, a sudden chill came, and in Shangguan Ce's hand, the magic weapon he relied on to become famous, the "Nine Cold Condensing Ice Thorns", quietly clenched.

As the wooden door opened, a dark shadow drifted in like a light smoke, rushing towards him like lightning.

Shangguan Ce's face changed greatly, the speed of the person was too fast, he didn't have time to react at all, so he had to subconsciously put the magic weapon in front of him, and the next moment, an unimaginable huge force poured into his body.

"Huh?" Luo Yu looked at Shangguan Ce, who was flying upside down, to be specific, it should be the magic weapon in his hand, and his face showed joy, "Yes, this thing is really good, I reluctantly accepted it!" ”

While speaking, his movements were not slow, and the attacks in his hands were mercilessly pursued towards Shangguan Ce.

Looking at the world of Zhuxian, although Shangguan Ce is also a top figure, his Taoism is profound, but he is still inferior to Luo Yu, and he has lost the opportunity, so at this time, looking at Luo Yu, who is killing again, he can only use all his strength to urge the Nine Cold Condensing Ice Thorn in his hand, and condense a thick ice wall defense in front of him, trying to resist Luo Yu's next killing move.

However, what made him desperate was that for this thick ice wall, Luo Yu's hand was instantly wrapped in cyan flames, and then he pointed like a knife, and the knife qi condensed by the flame knife roared slightly, falling on the ice wall.

In Shangguan Ce's horrified gaze, the sword qi passed through the ice wall in a blink of an eye, and the next moment, he felt a slight pain in his neck, and then his consciousness quickly dissipated.

All this happened extremely quickly, from Luo Yu's shot to killing Shangguan Ce, it was only a few breaths of time.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Luo Yu's face indifferently popped out a flame, burning it to ashes.

After doing all this, Luo Yu stretched out his hand and made a move, and the Nine Cold Condensing Ice Thorn immediately flew over, but as soon as it fell into his hand, a bone-chilling chill suddenly entered his body.

"Good stuff!" (To be continued.) )
