The battlefield of this trial was in the southernmost part of Dongyang County, a branch of the Tianji Mountain Range, which was stopped and broken when it crossed the upper reaches of the Weishui River, and then in the south of Dongyang County, leaving a vertical and horizontal surrounding mountain.

This mountain range is connected to the pole of heaven, and the demon beasts in it communicate with each other, not only in Dongyang, but also in the whole Yunze is a famous place, and the monks who come and go between the southeast and the Central Plains will come here to hunt the demon beasts, although Dongyang County is powerful, it can't draw out the whole mountain, but a place is carved out in it, called Lancang Valley, with a radius of about hundreds of miles, as a place of trial. The demon beasts in the Tianji Mountain Range will also come and go here, which is the most dangerous place in the entire mountain range, and few people usually come. The Dongyang County Government set aside this place as a forbidden place, and it also has the meaning of avoiding the strayed entry of foreign monks, and it will only be opened once every 30 years.

Dongyang County Government,And don't send people to go together.,It's dangerous inside.,So it doesn't matter if it's dead or alive.,It's only responsible for counting points when Zuihou comes out.,In the past,There were also some monks of the sect who would be injured by demon beasts.,Even those who died are not nothing.,But overall,Ninety out of five people can ensure safety.,It's also because everyone doesn't want to be in front of Dabi.,It's caused by too much strength.。

Gu Yan listened to the words of the county guard, and looked at several competing sects, such as Butterfly Valley, Qingdai Village, Canglang Peak and the like, they were all led by the head of the sect or the elders with respected positions, and the people who came were also the elites of the sect, and their eyes did not hide their greed for the Bixia Sect, and they obviously wanted to share a piece of pork on their bodies.

Gu Yan only smiled indifferently at this, she didn't like to fight between words. In the end, we still have to know through the battle of real swords and guns.

Wait for the county guard to finish speaking. Then everyone was invited to board the cloud boat, this huge cloud boat, carrying more than 100 people, flew towards the southeast mightily. This also means that the biggest event in the entire Yunze, the ratio of the major sects once every thirty years, will also kick off from this. Gu Yan couldn't help but think of Qin Feng, who was far away in Yunyang City, what kind of position would he be in in this turbulent change?

The cloud boat flies at great speed. In less than half an hour, they arrived outside the Lancang Valley, and the county guard lowered the cloud boat. He saluted to everyone and said: "This trial is also related to the future of my Dongyang, the children of Dongyang, all talented and young, all gathered here, waiting for the return of the kings, and then participate in the grand event!" ”

Wait for him to say these high-sounding words. Then ask the guards to open the ban. And all the people came down from the cloud boat and entered in turn. All pushed the South Fairy to take the first place, and the South Fairy did not shirk. Together with Yang Zhen, he took all the disciples into the brilliance of the cloud halo. Subsequently, the Han family, the Tan family and others also entered in turn. Gu Yan walked in with the third daughter, her heart was very calm, she had experienced so many hardships and dangers, and it was not a big risk for this attempt, but it was just for fun, and by the way, several disciples also had a long experience.

The Lancang Valley is so big, there are hundreds of miles in a radius, and more than 100 people are sprinkled into it, and they can't even hear a sound, so for so many times, there has never been a thing of fighting with each other, and everyone has their own shili range. Zhu Ying once followed Bi Zhenzhen and participated in the last trial, so she still knew a little about it, and said to Gu Yan: "Uncle Shi, the last time we came to Lancang Valley, we went to the north position, where there are many fifth-order demon beasts entrenched, and their temperament is quite docile, why don't you still go there?" "Although Zhu Ying and Gu Yan have the reality of master and apprentice, but they have no name, after Bi Zhenzhen retired as an elder, even if he and Gu Yan are equals, if they are older, they are older than Gu Yan, and Zhu Ying calls Gu Yan uncle.

Gu Yan smiled, "What's the point of that, if we just swallow the water and go back, wouldn't it be for nothing?" What's more dangerous here? ”

Zhu Ying didn't expect Gu Yan to ask about the dangerous place with one mouth, and couldn't help but be stunned, and after thinking about it, he said: "If you want to say that it is dangerous, it should be Panyunji, where there is a nine-winged cloud eagle, a natural wind demon beast, decades ago, I once heard that an eagle king came from the pole of the sky, entrenched there, but I don't know if it is still there." It must have grown to the sixth or seventh order. ”

Several people gasped, and Lin Zitong said in a low voice: "Didn't you discuss Taoguang obscurity before, isn't this too showy......

Gu Yan said with a smile: "How many demon beasts we killed, how many we took out, isn't it up to us to have the final say, I don't care too much about this trial, I just want you to have a long experience, are you afraid?" ”

The three girls are all competitive, although Lin Zitong is steady, and Zhu Ying is more worried, but they are not afraid of things, thinking that with Gu Yan on the side, even if they are not defeated, they can escape, so they said in unison: "Naturally not afraid!" Gu Yan waved his hand, picked up the Jinyun Disc, and the four of them walked towards Panyunji.

The whole Lancang Valley is full of clouds and mist, the poisonous gas is pressing, and from time to time it will pass through a pool, and the water in it does not know how deep it will be, but the miasma is tangy, and some of the smells rush upward, and the fishy smell is pressing, so the monks come and go here, all of them have to fly, and no one dares to walk directly on the ground. Even so, some pools had to be avoided, otherwise if you went straight through them, you would be swept down by the miasma that rushed into the sky. Even if Gu Yan was driving the Jinyun Disc and had his own protection, when he smelled those breaths, he would still feel dizzy and almost unable to control himself.

When Gu Yan saw her strange appearance, he whispered: "Hold your breath and concentrate, and drive it away with the fire aura in your body!" "Mo Yan is a rare ice and fire twin spirit root, extremely pure, and there is a strange spirit root like the ice spirit root, with excellent qualifications, Gu Yan deliberately wanted her to practice the law of ice and fire, but unfortunately she couldn't ask her to practice Wentianlu, but if she can build a successful foundation one day, then it is very likely that she will cultivate the fire spirit in her body.

Mo Yan listened to Gu Yan's words, sat down cross-legged on the Jinyun disk, and silently used the aura, and those fainting feelings slowly faded. Jinyun Disc still flew forward slowly, Gu Yan intended to let them increase their knowledge and add experience, and if they encountered some demon beasts that were not very powerful on the way, they would let Lin Zitong and Zhuying deal with them. In a dense forest on the way, there was a saber-toothed tiger that had reached the peak of the fourth order and was about to enter the fifth order, Gu Yan asked the two girls to set a trap to besiege it. Then the two joined forces and killed it on the spot in one fell swoop. After taking the demon pill and animal skin and bones, Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong all cheered.

Walking slowly all the way, even Mo Yan was under Gu Yan's care, and killed two first- and second-order demon beasts to practice their hands, and when they saw the blood, when they faced the enemy in the future, they would not be afraid, although it was really not worth mentioning, but Mo Yan held the loot in his hand. Still very excited, the first-order demon beast she hunted alone. The fur and everything are carefully taken off, as well as the broken bones inside, dressed into strings of beads, carefully placed in their magic bags, ready to be kept as a souvenir, and no one will give them.

Gu Yan looked at her, Jinyun Disc had been flying slowly for a long time, and naturally encountered a lot of demon beasts on the way. Most of them were hunted by Zhu and Lin. Gu Yan was just watching from the sidelines, but even so, the loot was not less. Zhuying has been here once, quite experienced, Lin Zitong is steady, but when he makes a move, he is neat and decisive, the two of them cooperate, just matching, there are already several fourth-order demon beasts dead in their hands, and the loot is quite rich.

Gu Yan counted, there were already three fourth-order demon beast demon pills, and there were countless refining materials for fur and bones, and after the two sects of Bixia Sect were united, they also accepted the inheritance of the original Danxia Sect's inner Dan rune Dao, and talisman making was indispensable, and the fur and bone blood of demon beasts were all excellent materials for talisman making, and they were all put away by Gu Yan one by one. These loot, after being inspected and assessed by the county government, will be returned to them, so they should not be ignored. Although Gu Yan had already intended to raise spirit beasts in the spirit garden, and used a part of the spirit grass to replace the talisman, the fur, bones and blood of these demon beasts were still indispensable. According to Gan Biwu's plan, after the Bixia Sect has a firm foothold, it will start to sell various grades of talismans and pills to the surrounding areas on a large scale, which is a way for the sect to make money, and it is also the foundation of the foothold. When the accumulation is sufficient, the unknown spiritual veins in Danxia Mountain will be slowly mined out, so that the foundation of a sect can be established.

Therefore, for every trophy, Gu Yan asked Lin Zitong to record it carefully, go back and follow the map, and after Bi Zhenzhen is out of the customs, he can start to prepare for the talisman making. As for Gu Yan, she would only make some high-grade runes, and ordinary runes would not be needed by her. In the past year, she has also taken out some time to study the Inner Dan Rune Dao mentioned in the jade shrine, and she has quite a comprehension in her heart, but the haode materials are difficult to find, and she has only done some low-level rune seal practice, as for the high-level rune seal, there is no chance to try it yet.

After hunting a thunder eagle again, Gu Yan saw that it was getting late, and asked, "How far is this from the place you said?" ”

Zhu Ying looked at the surrounding terrain and replied: "We have only walked more than 100 miles in half a day, if we want to go to Panyunji, at the current speed, it will take at least half a day, and it will not be possible to walk before nightfall, so it is better to take a rest and make plans." ”

Gu Yan nodded, according to Zhu Ying, the place in Panyunji is very dangerous, and there have been rumors that the Eagle King has come from the Heavenly Pole recently, it is estimated that no one will go, and no one will compete with them, so they can act slowly. And along the way, Gu Yan also killed a few fifth-order demon beasts, and when it comes to harvesting, he won't be left behind when he takes it out, so he can take his time in the future.

"But......" Gu Yan said with a deep groan, "along the way, it seems that we haven't seen any traces of other sects, could it be that we haven't even touched them in this Lancang Valley?" ”

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "Uncle Shi, each sect has its own conventional shili range, which will not be easily destroyed, now is the time when the period of Dabi is approaching, and no one will go to trouble themselves, so it is common for each to go their own way and not meet it." As soon as the three days are over, the ban is opened, and everyone will go out. There's no time to talk about old feelings here. ”

"Hmm......" Gu Yan nodded, feeling that he was a little worried. As Zhu Ying said, before the big competition, no one will make any mistakes in order to reduce the chances they can get in the big competition.

It was night in a blink of an eye, but the ground was full of swamps and bushes, and it was impossible to live in it, so Gu Yan used his mana to set up a tent in the air, and then let Mo Yan go in to rest. Several of them have been sleepless for a few days now, and they are all ordinary things, so they meditate outside and breathe.

They were located on top of a low hill, large and small at the top, like an upside-down boot, with a pointed round head sticking out, and below it was a natural barrier to light and rain, where many monsters nested and roosted. However, most of them are relatively low-level demon beasts, although they can sense the presence of monks above. But the powerful aura emanating from Gu Yan's body made them dare not approach.

Gu Yan sat there, the moonless bow on her back was shining, in such a rare moonlit night, absorbing the power of Taiyin to nourish the moonless sycamore was something she had to do every day. Lin Zitong sat on her left, her eyebrows lowered, and her face showed a holy glow. Gu Yan suddenly remembered something, and said, "Zitong." Now that you've reached the middle stage of foundation building, you should consider finding your own natal magic weapon? ”

When Lin Zitong had not yet built the foundation, she used the pair of Mandarin Duck double-twisted swords given by Gan Biwu, and it was naturally enough to fight against the monks in the Qi training period, but now she is not called her cultivation. It's just that in the past few years, she has been busy cultivating, stabilizing her realm, and improving her cultivation. Hands-on opportunities with people are minimal. This matter is not yet on the agenda.

"Ah......" Lin Zitong's eyelashes blinked gently, and under the reflection of the moonlight like water, it looked very moving. The innocent girl of the year has finally matured.

Alone with Gu Yan, she didn't have so many evasions like in the sect, stretched her waist, and said very unrestrainedly: "How can it be so easy, Bixia Sect left Qiyun Mountain in a hurry, and many of the foundations passed down by the ancestors have been destroyed, and now it is good to have a magic weapon to use." What Senior Brother Wei is using now is still the magic weapon you originally gave him! Although it is said that the Fang City in Dongyang County is much larger, the sect is now difficult, and the limited resources still have to be used for development, and there is no way to take out a large-scale exchange for magic weapons. ”

She turned sideways, sat closer to Gu Yan, and said longingly: "But the master said that in the past two years, there will be a large-scale refining of pills and talismans, and in a few years, life will be better, and we will all have opportunities at that time, so there is no need to rush for a while." ”

Gu Yan knew that Gan Biwu meant that in the first half of the year, she began to plant pieces of spiritual roots in the Spirit Garden on a large scale, which were all relatively common medicinal materials that could be formed quickly. Although it is said that a spiritual garden, those heaven and earth spiritual roots, are indispensable, which symbolizes the upper limit that a sect can reach, but the foundation is always those common and most widely used elixir spiritual roots.

In the next two years, these spiritual roots will mature one after another, plus during this time, Gan Biwu is also starting to prepare materials such as demon pill beast bones, which will be used for talismans, and when everything is ready, it will be the day when Bixia Sect will begin to get on the right track, but before that, it is necessary to get through the difficulty of Dabi first, so that Bixia Sect can have a more stable development environment in the next thirty years.

"So, ......" Lin Zitong stretched out his arm and said very relaxedly, "Master often tells us, bear with us, good days will come, Ah Yan, the spiritual garden you built is the most important thing for Bixia Sect now, so don't let us bother you, only when the spiritual garden is really built, can Bixia Sect be regarded as taking root here." ”

Gu Yan nodded, although Gan Biwu has not made much progress in cultivation, she is a person with vision and means, it is very suitable to be the head of the house, Gu Yan herself, there is no way to do better than her, and she will not have the patience to entangle those details.

"But ......" she smiled and patted Lin Zitong on the shoulder, "Speaking of which, Lingyuan has gradually entered the right track this year, there are big bulls helping me, I don't have to do so many trivial things, before participating in the big competition, I have at least half a year to spare, anyway, you all have to go to Beijing together, there is no magic weapon to use, isn't it not good-looking?" I think that after I go back this time, I will open the furnace and refine a batch of magic weapons, at least in the hands of each of you, don't be so shy. ”

Lin Zitong was very happy and asked, "Everyone has a share?" ”

Gu Yan smiled and nodded, she had learned from Lin Jiaxiu's alchemy technique, and she had been in Cangwu for several years, but she had never had a chance to use it, and if she didn't do it again, she was afraid that she would be rusty. When she returned to the ruin sea, she also accumulated a large number of materials, which she had not used, and after she arrived in Cangwu, she collected some more, and as these young disciples gradually grew up, it was time to leave something for the Bixia Sect.

Zhu Ying also heard the conversation between the two of them, and said excitedly: "Really? "In the past, when she was in Danxia Sect, life was really bitter, even Bi Zhenzhen herself, she only had one or two magic weapons around her body, she didn't know how to refine weapons, and there were not too many things to take out and trade spirit stones with people, the spirit runes handed down by the ancestors, Bi Zhenzhen was not allowed to buy and sell casually, and the life was very difficult. Hearing Gu Yan's words, he felt that his life was really much stronger than before, and the decision made by the master was really wise. That is, the inheritance of the original Danxia Sect is retained, and everyone's life has become better than before.

Gu Yan smiled: "Of course it's true, it's just that my technique is poor, I don't know if it suits your wishes, if you have any requirements, you can also put it forward in advance, and what you say first will be beneficial......" She was joking casually, and suddenly her ears stood up, and then there was an incomparably cool feeling, which hit from nowhere, and it reached the bottom of her heart in an instant, making Gu Yan's cold hairs all over her body stand up, "What a heavy demonic aura!" ”

The three of them all looked up, and at some point, the huge silver plate in the sky had been half obscured by a huge black shadow, and it was still rapidly approaching, and a strong wind was blowing in their faces, and the thick fishy aura was transmitted to everyone in a blink of an eye.

Zhu Ying jumped up quickly, holding a pair of short blades in his hand, and said vigilantly: "What a big monster, I have never heard of such a thing in Lancang Valley before!" ”

Gu Yan frowned, she could see that this monster was still far away in the sky, and its movements were not very fast, but the demonic qi had already spread here, which showed that its cultivation must be not shallow! She asked in a low voice, "Is that the cloud eagle you used to talk about?" ”

Zhu Ying shook his head, "The Nine-winged Cloud Eagle is as fast as lightning, coming and going like the wind, if it was that Eagle King, with our talking skills, it would have flown here from Panyunji a long time ago." ”

Before the two of them could finish their words, they heard a scream of "ah" again, followed by another one, two sounds in a row, the interval between them was almost imperceptible, and the sound was extremely poignant, cutting through the sky, and a canopy of blood splashed out not far away.

Gu Yan shouted: "What person? With a wave of her left hand, the precious light of the vermilion mirror pierced the sky, and suddenly illuminated the surroundings as bright as day, and then they saw two people fall from mid-air one after another, and the huge black shadow in the air also began to disappear, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The two people quickly fell from the air, Gu Yan stretched out his hand and flicked it, and a spiritual power popped out, turning the direction of the two of them, and it happened to fall on the hill where they were staying, not falling into the swamp below. The hill is small and large, and above it is a flat ground, just enough to accommodate people to inhabit Gu Yan frowned, lowered the Jinyun Saucer Xiangxia, and motioned to Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong to rescue the two people first.

The two women responded, and first cautiously took out two miasma amulets to protect themselves - this time in Lancang Valley, Gan Biwu was very thoughtful, and the applicable talisman seals and pills were all very well prepared, and the miasma avoidance talisman could avoid the miasma here, so as not to enter the body.

Soon, the two women rescued the two people who had fallen from the sky. They are all youngsters who don't look big, and Gu Yan also has the impression that they are the disciples who came together this time, Gu Yan still remembers that one of them is by Yang Zhen's side, and his cultivation is similar to him, so it seems that it should be his fellow disciple. The other one was wearing a garment with the mark of Tsurukagetan.

Crane Shadow Pond is in the east of Danxia Mountain, only a few hundred miles away from the current Bixia Sect, the two sects are very close, there have been many disputes on weekdays, but the Danyang faction at that time was powerful, so that they could not move, now the Danyang faction is far away, they are ready to move again, among the sects that are eyeing the Bixia Sect, Crane Shadow Pond is definitely one of them.

Before Gu Yan could figure out what was going on, he saw that several figures had already rushed over in the distance, led by one wearing a Taoist robe printed with a azure water blue pattern, his face was sinking like water, as if covered with a thick layer of cold ice, and said in a deep voice: "Who is it, vainly hurting the disciples of my sect?" (To be continued)
