The night was as cold as water.

There was darkness ahead, and the figures of a man and two foxes flickered gently in the dark corners of the night.

After a while, sure enough, two people came from that road, but they were characters that Baguio recognized.

Li Xun and Yan Hong.

Baguio frowned, she had known each other ten years ago, and they were both excellent talents. Although the world has changed in the past ten years, and we will no longer see each other, but for those who cultivate the truth, ten years is just like a snap of a finger. The two of them looked almost exactly the same as they did ten years ago, just watching them show their hands, and they were afraid that their deeds were not comparable to those of those years.

I saw the two of them walking slowly, and they seemed to be talking to each other. When he got closer, he only heard Yan Hong say, "Senior brother, why did those monsters suddenly rush in?" ”

Li Xun frowned, obviously not quite understanding. But seeing his grim face, he said coldly: "Those uncivilized beasts, who can know what they are thinking!" If I want to say that these fishmen dare to invade the valley, I have to let them come and go, so why bother Uncle Shangguan again? ”

Yan Hong said softly: "Senior brother, don't be angry, the valley master is far-sighted, there must be something we can't know about this matter for the time being." When he first negotiated with these barbarians, it was Uncle Shangguan who used his magical powers to deter in one fell swoop, and those barbarians regarded his old man as a celestial, as long as his old man came forward, those monsters would definitely leave obediently. The valley master asked us to invite Uncle Shangguan to come out, presumably for this reason. ”

Li Xun snorted and said: "I naturally know this, but I don't understand that with our respect for the Incense Valley, why bother to whisper to these monsters, and now I have to ask Uncle Shangguan to come forward, if this matter spreads, won't our Incense Valley become the laughing stock of the righteous path in the world?" ”

Yan Hong smiled and said, "Senior brother, I think there is still something to use for these barbarians, so the valley master tolerates them for three points." Wait until ...... future"

Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped talking, but looked at Li Xun with a pair of eyes, and seemed to have a thousand words.

The corners of Li Xun's mouth twitched, and there seemed to be a trace of disbelief on his handsome face, but from a distance, it added a bit of chic. But he didn't say anything more, just sighed lightly, and slowly walked to a path next to him with Yan Hong, and disappeared into the night after a while.

In the shadows, a gaze as sharp as a knife looked at their backs. Baguio's mind changed sharply, it turned out that it was those fishmen and aliens who invaded the Incense Valley tonight. Recalling that night three days ago, I had heard Lu Shun talking to the fishman in the dark, and the tall fishman seemed to be the head of the clan.

It seems that tonight's incident is mostly caused by the fish-man patriarch being sniped by the golden bottle, and the remaining fish-man clan is angry and comes to retaliate. As soon as he thought of this, Baguio couldn't help but pass the figure of the golden bottle in his heart, and his vigilance against this woman deepened.

He stood in the shadows for a moment, then seemed to have made a decision.

Baguio smiled faintly and said, "Let's go and see what kind of character Uncle Shangguan is, how about it?" ”

"Do as your master commands." The three-tailed demon fox and the six-tailed spirit fox both nodded.

One man and two foxes smiled silently in the darkness, and their figures suddenly rose, as fast as ghosts, and went to the secluded path.

In the distance, a disciple of the Burning Incense Valley was walking here, and suddenly felt a flower in front of him, as if there was a ghost shadow flashing on the road leading to the "Xuanhuo Altar" in the middle of the valley, and when he looked carefully, he didn't see anything. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then shook his head, muttered, and continued walking, not taking it to heart.

The path is secluded, but the road is unexpectedly long, and it is obvious that the place where the Shangguan Uncle is located is very secluded. Baguio didn't go far on this road, there were no other houses around, there were trees and flowers on both sides of the road, the night wind blew, under the light of the moon in the sky, the shadows of the trees were swaying, looking like some kind of demon dancing, revealing a trace of weirdness.

Baguio walked cautiously along this path, walking for a while, but did not see any forks in the road as outside, it seemed that this road led directly to the place where the Shangguan Uncle was.

The Incense Valley covers a huge area, and this trail, looking twisting and turning, leads to the depths of the valley.

Suddenly, a white square object suddenly appeared on the side of the road ahead, Baguio stared at it, and looked at it fixedly, but it was a stone tablet with two lines of eight characters engraved on it:

Flames

The disciple stopped

Baguio frowned, not because he hesitated because there might be some mystery in the Incense Valley in front of him, but because of the word "Xuanhuo".

He glanced at the six-tailed spirit fox behind him, and then raised his feet and walked over to the stone tablet.

Although the stele looked ordinary, it seemed to be a dividing place, and after passing the stele, somehow, although the path still zigzagged forward, the trees and flowers on both sides of the road were 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.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the word "Xuanhuo"?

Baguio took the two foxes along the trail and turned the last corner.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but shake his body, and a large open space appeared in front of him, and a wave of heat blew in his face from nowhere.

In the center of the clearing was a huge circular altar, the bottom of which was suspended in the air, and thirteen huge stone pillars made of white jade were three zhang high to support the entire altar. Among them, there are 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 looks like at least five or six people can hug it together.

Above the altar, all the buildings were made of a strange crimson stone, steps, railings, and so on. 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.

From a distance, this altar was simply a huge burning red flame that pierced the sky. Baguio stood under this altar, almost as small as an ant.

Baguio took a deep breath, the building in front of him was really amazing, and the four words of magic were well deserved. I didn't expect that there was such a magnificent building in the Incense Valley. He groaned in his heart, and for a moment he thought of the stone tablet he had just entered, and he vaguely knew in his heart that the place in front of him was the famous place in the rumored Incense Valley-Xuanhuo Altar.

She froze and floated silently. Except for the Xuanhuo Altar in front of him, there is nothing in the open space, and there is no cover. But fortunately, there were no guards on the left and right, and his body was fast, and he reached the bottom of the Xuanhuo Altar in a blink of an eye.

As soon as he approached the vicinity of this Xuanhuo Altar, the heat in the air suddenly increased several times, and even if he practiced like Baguio, he actually felt a burst of upset, and there was faint sweat on his forehead.

But no matter what, in the current situation, Baguio doesn't have the heart to care about so much for the time being. He was thinking about whether to climb this Xuanhuo Altar next when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps from above the Xuanhuo Altar.

Baguio frowned, glanced around, but saw that there was no shelter around at all, and with a slight groan, the person flew under the Xuanhuo Altar and hid behind a thick white jade pillar.

She hid behind the stone pillar, subconsciously reached out to touch the stone pillar, and suddenly her hand was hot, and he reacted so quickly that he immediately retracted his hand.

Under this altar of Xuanhuo, even this stone pillar is hot.

The footsteps became louder, and it was obvious that someone had walked down, and suddenly an old voice said slowly: "Since the valley lord has invited me, I naturally want to go." But you tell me, why are those fishmen so violent that they are going to attack the valley? ”

Baguio hid in the shadow of the stone pillar, looked out, and saw Li Xun and Yan Hong following behind an old man in gray, walking down respectfully.
