Chapter 877: Mystery Man
Gu Yan pressed against the ground and fled forward quickly, the blood behind him spilled to the ground. With her own strength, she is still a little too big for the two demon venerables.
After all, she had just been promoted to the middle of the Yuanzhong, and the two people who had just fought with her, each of them were masters of the Demon Gate comparable to Zhan Ruochen, although she relied on the power of Taixuan Jue, almost one against four, and still escaped after killing the two, but when she collided with the two of them, she was also injured a lot.
However, these two people are not good at flying, and under her destruction of Jin Lei Yu and her full escape, there is no shadow of the pursuers behind her.
But Gu Yan still didn't dare to slack off, she flew all the way along the East Pole Peak, and at this time, in front of her, she had already seen the border of Yuyang Prefecture.
After here, it is where Nantang is, and I don't know where Su Manjian and them fled to.
Her divine thoughts sensed that no one was chasing her within a radius of hundreds of miles, so she stopped, took out a few pills from her arms, and stuffed them into her mouth. Ning Fengzi jumped out with a smile at this time, "I'm not wrong what I told you, if it weren't for the power of the Taixuan Secret today, how could you let your Yuan Shen leave your body and fight with the two masters respectively, and you would have died under siege a long time ago." ”
Gu Yan let out a sigh, "Yes, it is really an ancient method, if you cultivate to the late Yuan Infant stage, it should be even more powerful." ”
Ning Fengzi "cut" a sound, "I think back then, Shangqingmen relied on this set of tricks, incarnated into hundreds of millions, and ran rampant in the world, even if you had the opportunity to reach the spirit world in the future." It can also be used for a while. ”
Hear this. Gu Yan couldn't help frowning. This time she went to Tianyun Prefecture. The harvest was great, and the inadvertent encounter with the zodiac made her eyes appear as if a new shijie had appeared. Maybe in the future, she really has a chance to fly to the spirit realm? As long as this road is still there, no matter how narrow it is, no matter how difficult it is, Gu Yan is willing to take it.
But now it worries her the most. On the contrary, it is the arrogant Dazhang of the Demon Gate, after devouring Yuyang Prefecture, no one knows where their next target is, if they want to turn to the southeast, then Bixia Sect and Zangjian Villa will bear the brunt, this matter, go back and discuss with Ye Yunting.
After a little thought, she took out the Nine Peaks Ding and released the Yan Huan inside. said: "I want to go back to the southeast now, and you are helping me at the East Pole Peak today." I'm afraid that I've offended Danzhu, now are you going with me, or are you going back to the Danding faction to find your master? ”
Yan Huan rubbed his hands, quite embarrassed, although he acted recklessly, but after all, there was a sect behind him, and he couldn't be all careless. After thinking about it, he whispered: "I'd better go back to find my master, and if I have a chance in the future, I'll go to Danxia Mountain to find you again, okay?" ”
Gu Yan smiled: "Then I will definitely sweep the couch to greet you." She pointed with her finger, "This is the remnant of the East Pole Peak Zuihou, you can return to the Danding faction in the past, I want to move forward again, go to Nantang first." ”
"Hmm." Yan Huan arched his hand, "Take care!" ”
The two parted here, and Yue Yu was comforting the pair of sisters and brothers who were rescued by Gu Yan softly at this time, and didn't seem to notice Yan Huan's departure, Gu Yan showed a smile, she was just about to get up again, and suddenly in the Nine Peaks, there was a great shock at this time.
The spirit of the snow demon that was originally in the tripod suddenly let out an angry roar, and in this roar, with an extremely violent meaning, the shadows of the demon beasts in the entire Nine Peaks Ding all began to be restless. Gu Yan frowned and said, "What's going on?" ”
Obviously, these demon beasts in the Nine Peaks Ding seemed to be lured by a certain aura around them, and they were constantly agitated, but Gu Yan didn't sense anything abnormal.
Ning Fengzi said with some hesitation: "I think...... The Snow Demon seems to be, found its kind? ”
She said: "The snow demon's temperament is actually very violent, and only if you destroy its original body and suppress it in the Nine Peaks, will you listen to you like this, but when you encounter certain situations, it may still burst out of its ferocity." Now it looks like it's meeting its own kind and it's like it's meeting an enemy. ”
Gu Yan said categorically: "Anyway, let's get out of here first, Yuyang Prefecture is really unsafe!" She used the forbidden method to seal the Nine Peaks Ding, and then flew all the way to the front.
Yuyang Prefecture and Nantang, there is also a big river separating each other, it seems that the Demon Gate deliberately took care of this side, and there was not much war here, but even so, there were also a large number of monks who fled across the river. About seventy percent of the monks fled to Dongji, and the other thirty percent fled to Nantang.
Tibetan Sword Villa also stationed monks here, responsible for receiving those monks to cross the river, and they did not stick to this line like the Danding faction, but kept sending people to the opposite side to pick up people to cross the river. Gu Yan hid his figure and quietly crossed the river. She glanced back, still standing proudly on the East Pole Peak in the distance, and a thought suddenly appeared in her heart, the leaders of the Danding faction, what were they thinking. Could it be that at this time, they still want to be able to coexist peacefully with the Demon Gate?
You must know that now it is not only a battle for Taoism, but a struggle of life and death, even if it is an overhaul in the infancy of the Yuan Dynasty, under such a catastrophe, it is possible to die without a place to be buried!
She quietly crossed the river and was just about to fly south, when a sword light suddenly appeared in the air in the distance, and it disappeared in a flash.
The monks who were in charge of answering the monks by the river had already exclaimed: "That's Senior Brother Shi Shen!" ”
A disciple said, "Didn't he go to Yuyang Prefecture to pick up Su Jianzun, how could he come back from the other direction?" ”
Gu Yan's brows were already furrowed at this time, although the sword light was only flashing in the sky, but Gu Yan could see that he was extremely seriously injured, almost to the point of spontaneously combusting the sword soul.
Shi Shen this person, she also once had a relationship, when he was in the Tibetan Sword Villa, he led the remaining disciples to fight against the Ziyang Zhenren who was going to seize the foundation of the Tibetan Sword Villa, and he had some ability, and I heard that he had cultivated to the point of consummation. All you need is the Sword of Destiny to get married. He is the best among the disciples of the younger generation. Such a person will be seriously injured, and the one who shoots must be a master above the Yuan Infant stage.
As soon as Gu Yan moved, he flew towards the front.
Although that sword light swept across the sky, from here, it was at least a hundred miles away, but this distance was nothing to Gu Yan, just a moment. She had already arrived there, and then she saw a mysterious person in a black robe, who seemed to have just chased Shi Shen. He raised his hand, about to slash the killer.
Gu Yan snorted: "Stop!" She raised it with one hand, and the Great Yan Sword had already broken through the air.
The man's palm paused, and Xiangxia still slashed away mercilessly, but Gu Yan's sword qi flew into the air, and suddenly exploded, and the sword qi collapsed. The surrounding wind and clouds moved, and the man's palm was slightly offset. This palm slashed into the air. And he didn't have time to make a second blow, Gu Yan had already rushed behind him.
The black-robed man didn't stop, his body had already rushed towards the sky, he looked back at Gu Yan as if he was slightly surprised, the light flashing in those eyes made Gu Yan feel very familiar.
The two of them just glanced at each other, and immediately, his figure disappeared into the void, and Gu Yan didn't know where he went.
She quickly lifted the stone ginseng on the ground, only to see that his face was like gold paper, Xiangshang was almost stained with blood, and there was a shocking scar on his chest.
Obviously, the blow just now, although slightly off, still dealt a heavy blow to him, and he was almost dead and could not be penetrated anymore. No wonder he didn't stop after striking this blow, but walked away. Because he knew that even if he had great magical powers, he would not be able to save Shi Shen's life.
Gu Yan thought about it for a while, and quickly made a decision, and this decision made her happy afterwards.
She took out a small wooden box from her bosom, opened the box, took out a cyan grass stem, and quickly stuffed it into Shi Shen's mouth.
This is the Huitian grass she cultivated in the spiritual garden, and its effect can be used to reclaim the monk's breath when he is on the verge of death. It is an extremely rare thing, the spiritual root she obtained in the Ancient Spirit Garden of Yunmengze, it took decades of thought, but it was only three plants, and there was no fourth plant in the entire Cangwu.
Although this can't save Shi Shen's life, it is enough for him to wake up for a while.
Hui Tiancao stuffed it into Shi Shen's mouth, he groaned, and then opened his eyes, but his eyes were scattered, and it seemed that he would run out of oil at any time.
Gu Yan didn't say much, she said quickly: "Who killed you?" ”
Shi Shen coughed violently, a large mouthful of blood kept spurting out, and said vaguely: "Demon Gate, Xuanqing Valley......"
Only these five words were spoken, and a stream of blood arrows had already erupted from his five senses and seven orifices at the same time, and all the meridians in his body were shattered at this moment, and the whole person turned into a mess of flesh.
Gu Yan sighed and put his body on the ground, and at this time, only the disciples of the Hidden Sword Villa chased after him, and when they saw Gu Yan here, they all looked at her hesitantly.
Gu Yan turned around and said, "I'm Gu Yan of Bixia Sect, you go and report to the owner, I will continue to investigate this matter!" With that, she flew up and disappeared into the void.
The Xuanqing Valley that Shi Shen Fang just mentioned is a valley on the border between Nantang and the East Pole, which has been abandoned for a long time and has never been inhabited. But Gu Yan wanted to investigate, because at this moment, she suddenly remembered who those familiar eyes were.
He is Cao Ruoyu, the big city lord of Gusu City!
The two of them had actually only met once in Tianfeng Valley, but Gu Yan always felt that this person was unfathomable, maybe he already had the cultivation of the Empress Yuan, otherwise, how could he compete with the real person of the Jade Flute without winning or losing? You must know that the Jade Flute is a real person, but one of the three ancestors of the Jade Void, the incarnation of the fearless layman, even if he proclaimed himself to cultivate when he walked down the mountain, it was by no means something that ordinary monks could deal with.
He was probably a little surprised by his entry, thinking that he could easily kill Shi Shen under his palm, and then retreat, and he did it, if it weren't for Gu Yan's Hui Tiancao in his hand, she wouldn't have heard a word left by Shi Shen Zuihou.
When the Demon Gate invaded Yuyang Prefecture on a large scale, Cao Ruoyu quietly appeared in Xuanqing Valley, what was his intention? It is related to the future trend of Cangwu, the survival of the Tibetan Sword Villa and the Bixia Sect, Gu Yan has to take a look.
It's just that she doesn't know. This one goes. to the future of Cangwu. How much of an impact has it had......
Xuanqing Valley is at the junction of the East Pole and Nantang, it is the end of the East Pole Peak, and the valley formed here is very desolate, Gu Yan looked at it from a distance, thought about it for a while, and said: "Zi Chen, put your golden clothes." Lend me one. ”
Mo Zichen took off the golden silk clothes on his body and handed it to Gu Yan.
This treasure robe, which can hide the aura outside the monk's body, is an excellent magic weapon for lurking. Gu Yan put on the golden silk clothes and quietly sneaked into the Xuanqing Valley.
Although this is the place under the jurisdiction of the Danding faction, because of the barren location, even the Danding faction itself, very few disciples will come here, and they don't know that the Xuanqing Valley has been abandoned for thousands of years, from the outside. It's just a common desolate valley.
But as soon as Gu Yan approached Xuanqing Valley, Ning Fengzi's voice was already heard in the sea of knowledge. At the same time, she herself had sensed it.
Ning Fengzi said: "Be careful, that snow demon's restlessness seems to be stronger, and the reason for its restlessness is most likely in Xuanqing Valley!" ”
This made Gu Yan even more puzzled, what was it that caused the ferocity of this snow demon?
She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Fengzi, you have sealed all the spiritual qi paths between the Nine Peaks Ding and the outside world. "Although this makes Jiu Ling Ding useless, it can also isolate the passage connecting the snow demon with the outside world, so that Yue Yu and the others can also be safer when they are inside. As for Gu Yan, it is not necessary to use the Nine Peaks Ding against the enemy.
Ning Fengzi agreed, and Gu Yan had already quietly infiltrated the Xuanqing Valley.
The area occupied by Xuanqing Valley is huge, and Gu Yan acted very carefully after sneaking into Xuanqing Valley, she did not release her divine thoughts to sense the surrounding area, if she did this, as long as there was a person in the valley who cultivated higher than herself, then it would be easy to be discovered. Especially when she had just fought Cao Ruoyu once.
Xuanqing Valley stretched for hundreds of miles, Gu Yan searched for it inch by inch, since Shi Shen specifically pointed out these three words before he died, then, there must be something in the valley that surprised him.
At this time, she suddenly heard a low roar, and in this roar, it seemed to be extremely ferocious, so that the hairs on her whole body seemed to stand up all of a sudden, Gu Yan's whole body suddenly froze, and Ning Fengzi had already said: "Hide!" ”
Gu Yan flashed quickly, the golden silk clothes she borrowed from Mo Zichen's hand were still wearing on her body at this time, hiding all her traces, at this time, on the other side of the valley, the earth was already rumbling, and there was a giant beast several feet tall slowly walking towards this side, its feet were short and fat, its body was covered with thick skin with folds, a huge head with a pair of small eyes, and a white horn on its forehead. There seemed to be bells hanging all over the body, and with every step, the body was shaking and making a rattling sound.
Ning Fengzi said in a low voice: "It's the jade horned rhino!" ”
Gu Yan's brows furrowed, "Is it the kind of jade horn rhinoceros with skin as hard as fine iron and horns on the head that can be used for medicine?" ”
Ning Fengzi nodded, "This kind of demon beast is amazing, in ancient times, it is said that there are nineteen kinds of demon beasts with the bloodline of ancient divine beasts, and the jade horned rhinoceros is one of them, many immortals, are proud to be able to catch a jade horn rhinoceros as a mount, it is said that after it is promoted to the ninth order of the consummation of the beast king, it will turn into a green ox and ascend to the sky." This demon beast is at least an eighth-order outside. The jade horn on its head is said to contain the true fire of the sun, no wonder the snow demon becomes so frightened when he feels its breath, these two guys are born to be natural enemies! ”
The snow demon is an extremely cathode cold beast that grows on the ice field, and the jade horned rhinoceros was born in the extremely hot and poisonous swamp, the poisonous gas is extremely heavy, and the cold gas sprayed in the mouth of the snow demon can naturally dissolve the poison of the jade horned rhino, but the jade horn on the top of the head is the natural nemesis of the snow demon, so under the sum of the two, the snow demon is somewhat downwind, and when the two are fighting, the snow demon usually has to give way to the first order. This eighth-order jade-horned rhinoceros was obviously not something that the snow demon spirit in the Nine Peaks Ding could deal with. It's no wonder it's so scary.
However, what surprised Gu Yan was not that he had encountered this demon beast, but that he was on the top of the head of the jade horned rhinoceros, and at this time he was picking up a young man, who seemed to be unconscious, his face was full of red, and his whole body seemed to be about to erupt into flames, lying on the top of the rhino horn like a dead fish, this young man was Yan Huan, who had just been separated from her.
This made Gu Yan smile bitterly, it seemed that Yan Huan's luck was really not very good, every time he saw him, he was either being chased and killed, or he was in danger. This time, he seemed to have been poisoned by the jade horned rhinoceros, injured by the true fire of the sun, and the meridians of his whole body were poisoned by fire, if he could not be treated in time, he was afraid that his life would be in danger.
This made Gu Yan suddenly a little embarrassed, if she made a move, she might not be able to beat this jade horned rhinoceros, and secondly, she didn't know what kind of mystery there was in the valley, if she didn't reach it quickly, it would be too late to regret it.
She was hesitating, and suddenly in the distance, there was a heavy snort, this sound fell in Gu Yan's ears, making her feel very familiar, her heart moved, and she said: "Fengzi, you watch it here first, and I will come when I go." ”
Although the poison of the jade horned rhinoceros is heavy, it is not immediately fatal, and Gu Yan is now going to find out the mystery in the valley first.
Passing through this valley, it was an extremely shallow mountain col, although Gu Yan was wearing a golden silk robe that could hide her traces, she was still extremely careful, and she had climbed over two mountains in a row, and in front of her, the voice was already heard very clearly.
One person said: "This is already a breeding place for demon beasts in Zuihou, we have worked hard for so many years, and the blood of these spirit beasts cultivated, especially the twelve demon spirits of Zuihou, is already of great use." These things, the two Demon Venerables, can't they still see them? ”
This voice was unusually familiar, and Gu Yan could already conclude that this was the Danzhu she had just seen when she was in the East Pole!
At this time, a slightly indifferent voice sounded: "The Danding faction really deserves to be a big faction famous all over the world for the Dan Dao, and only you can cultivate so many demon beasts, especially the twelve demon spirits of Zuihou, with the blood of these spirit beasts, what we have to do will probably get twice the result with half the effort, right?" ”
Gu Yan quietly poked his head out, and sure enough, in the middle of the mountain pass, there were four people standing, among them, the tall and thin one wearing a red Taoist robe was Danzhu. And beside him, one is Cao Ruoyu, the big city lord who has just fought with him, and the other two are also Lu Youge and Xiao Lolran, the two demon venerables who have only been separated from him for a short time.
This discovery shocked Gu Yan. Lu Xiao and Cao Ruoyu appeared together, this is not surprising, although Cao Ruoyu has almost been hidden in Qiyun Mountain all these years, and rarely appears in the Central Plains, but this is originally his old travel place, and it is not strange to come once in a while, but what shocked her the most was the appearance of Danzhu!
You must know that Dan Zhu, as a Yuanying monk of the Danding faction, appeared sneakily in the Xuanqing Valley and had such an intimate conversation with the two demon venerables, as long as this matter was known by these Xuanmen monks in Cangwu, even if he had ten mouths, he would still not be able to turn over!
But what Gu Yan was thinking about at this time was not these, after seeing Danzhu, it confirmed a thought in her heart, the Demon Gate and the Danding faction really had some secret agreements.
Otherwise, on the East Pole Peak that day, they would not have such a tacit understanding, with the East Pole Peak as the boundary, no one would be willing to take a step beyond the Thunder Pool.
However, is this Danzhu's own private behavior, or does it represent the entire Danding faction? This discovery made Gu Yan's breathing a little short, and she felt as if she was about to lift the lid of a big secret.
Lu Youge said aloud at this time: "If I'm not mistaken, your sect has already begun to raise demon beasts in various places hundreds of years ago, and its footprints are almost everywhere in Cangwu. And most of these demon beasts have ancient bloodlines, and they can accumulate so many demon beasts with ancient bloodlines, and the work they have done is not only hundreds of years, but also not the power of one or two generations, I'm afraid that after the last Dao Demon War, your faction has already started this matter, right? ”
Dan Zhu said lightly: "This is the faction's own business, you shouldn't worry about it, right?" ”
Gu Yan was already sure at this time that Shi Shen had inadvertently discovered their secret in Xuanqing Valley, and was chased and killed by Cao Ruoyu all the way to Nantang and killed him in the palm of his hand. (To be continued.) )
