Chapter 86 A strange old man
In the blink of an eye, another week passed, and the shortlisted people in the selection competition were notified to come to the martial arts training ground early in the morning to gather, and Su Yanxue saw from a distance that Mo Ye, who had not come forward for a long time, was also waiting there.
"Today, I will open the Sand Abyss Secret Realm, as for the chances of you entering it, it depends on you."
"Master, everyone is ready."
Tianyin stood beside Mo Ye and bowed his head.
"Hmm."
Mo Ye responded, he turned around, stretched out his hands, a white magic circle appeared in front of him, his mouth was chanting, a black chess piece appeared in his hand, he twisted the chess piece, put it in the center of the circle, and then, everyone only heard a "click", and the ring in the middle of the martial arts training ground slowly sank into the ground.
Instead of a huge stone door, Mo Ye walked to the side of the stone door, stretched out his hand to touch the stone door, and said in a deep voice
"Open!"
A buzzing sound came from behind the stone gate, and everyone stared nervously and curiously at Mo Ye's movements.
"Senior brother, what is the head of the sect doing?"
"The master is opening the mechanism of the sand abyss, and I will issue an identity token to each of you later, and if you encounter a crisis that you can't cope with after entering the secret realm, you can break the token with the power of the underworld, and you can automatically teleport back from the secret realm."
"Remember, there is only one chance to ask for help, you must take care of your identity tokens, many things in the secret realm are not enough to deal with with your current strength, and you must not be strong."
Tianyin was very uneasy and emphasized that although the master could check the situation of the secret realm anytime and anywhere, he was not afraid of ten thousand, but he was afraid of what happened, not to mention that some mysterious existences in this secret realm were feared and uncontrollable even by the master.
"Senior brother, I have something I want to ask."
A handsome young man with handsome features and a slender figure wearing a white disciple's uniform stood up from the crowd.
"What?"
"I heard that there is a spirit immortal clan in this sand abyss that has disappeared on the mainland, is this true?"
"This ...... I hadn't seen it before when I entered the Sand Abyss, so I can't be sure if it's real or not. ”
Tianyin thought for a while, and then opened his mouth, although the master had mentioned the existence of spirit immortals, but he had not been able to encounter them when he entered the sand abyss several times before, perhaps, he did not have any fate with those existences.
"Senior brother, I heard from a few senior sisters and senior brothers that there is a mysterious treasure left by the first generation of butterfly gods in the sand abyss, I don't know if senior brother can reveal some news."
The young man's eyes were full of curiosity and desire for treasures, and Tianyin frowned
"This sand abyss is a secret place, and I don't know exactly what it is, in short, what you can get in it depends on your fate."
After saying that, he turned to look at Mo Ye's movements.
At this time, Mo Ye stood in front of the stone gate, his expression was serious, and he pressed his hand on the stone gate and injected his spiritual power
"Squeak", the stone door slowly opened, a rumbling sound faintly came from the stone door, only to see Mo Ye draw a gesture in the air, a white crack "whew" out of the stone door, in the void in front of everyone, a white crack split out of the crack again, Mo Ye turned around, the gap continued to grow, until it became the size of the stone door and then stood still in the void.
Yellow whirlpools swirled through the cracks, and just standing there, everyone could feel a vortex of attraction pulling them in.
Tianyin handed the identity token into everyone's hands without hurry, and when he passed by Mu You's side, he specially stayed for an extra second or two to suppress his voice
"Be careful, Senior Sister Mu."
"I will, Tianyin."
Mu You took the token, blinked at the sky, and gave him a reassuring look.
"Alright, good luck everyone."
After Tianyin distributed the token, he stepped aside, Mo Ye's eyes moved, and Tianyin nodded
"Master, the tokens have been distributed."
"Good."
As soon as Mo Ye raised his hand, the vortex that attracted him instantly hardened a lot, only to see the wind blowing on the martial arts training ground, the dust and sand rising, Su Yanxue and Mu You felt their bodies fly off the ground and head towards the gap.
"Dead snow, let's be together!"
"Okay."
Mu You stretched out his hand to Su Yanxue, Su Yanxue nodded, and was about to reach over, but was suddenly pushed away by a turbulent current that came from nowhere.
Then, the wind and dust covered her vision, and Su Yanxue only felt that her body was being pulled by something, and her eyes blurred for a while, and she couldn't see anything.
And Mu You, who was on the other side, obviously didn't expect this situation and shouted
"Xue Xue, what's wrong with you?"
However, Su Yanxue was sucked into the secret realm one step ahead of her, and her voice was no longer audible.
The endless red sky and the endless yellow sand intertwined, the overwhelming wind and sand completely sealed Su Yanxue's field of vision, she struggled to open her eyes, and the whistling wind blew through her snow-white skin with blade-like grit, stabbing her a little painfully.
She was wearing a pure white cedar, a lake blue long skirt hanging down to her ankles, a dark blue tassel around her waist dancing in the wind, a silver long sword hanging on her waist, on the long skirt, embroidered with the pattern of butterflies dancing, crystal clear ice hairpins tied up her long hair as blue as water, her existence, in this sky of yellow sand looks out of place.
She tried to squint her eyes to see the road ahead, but in an instant, she heard a voice that seemed to come from an ancient distance ringing in her ears
"You're finally back, my lord."
In the desert, a barren place, Su Yanxue looked at it, and after removing the dust, only the red and yellow intersecting margins were left to remind her of what the sky was and what the earth was.
Is this the abyss of sand?
Suddenly, the voice rang out again
"My lord, we've been looking forward to this day for a long time."
The world of sand is changing rapidly, and when Su Yanxue wanted to take another step forward, her vision blurred again.
"There is a legend in ancient times, butterflies wake up, and the world will change!"
"There is a way in ancient times, the stars are displaced, and all souls are born!"
The manic sand and dust danced wildly above the desert, and the wind carried the grains of sand past Su Yanxue quickly, she was forced to stay in place, letting the wind and sand wreak havoc around her but there was nothing she could do, but the ancient call urged her to keep moving forward
"Your Excellency, go ahead, Your Excellency, we are waiting for you ahead."
Su Yanxue moved her steps forward with difficulty, and behind her, the footprints were quickly covered and disappeared, knowing that Su Yanxue finally saw the only light on the desert.
And when she approached, there was only an abyss in front of her, and she wanted to retreat a little puzzled, but she was suddenly pushed forward by a force, and all of a sudden, the feeling of weightlessness came to her heart
“……”
In the process of falling, a mysterious force suddenly appeared, gently holding her up, and in a trance, she suddenly saw a black butterfly shining with a faint blue light appear beside her.
"How can there be butterflies here?"
Compared to this wild desert, this butterfly's wings were really weak, but this butterfly landed on Su Yanxue's shoulder almost unaffected.
"My lord, do you finally remember us?"
"Who are you?"
Su Yanxue frowned slightly, a little confused, she felt her body slowly falling, but there was no weightlessness that she had just suddenly fallen.
The butterfly suddenly flew up from her shoulder, and Su Yanxue's toes touched the ground at this moment, she looked at everything in front of her in surprise, there was obviously a desert above here, why was there a green forest under the abyss.
Here, everything is full of vitality, here, all living beings are living vigorously, but the arrival of Su Yanxue seems to have destroyed their tranquility, and at this time, a white-haired old man appeared in front of Su Yanxue, and the old man bowed when he saw Su Yanxue
"Meet your lordship."
“……”
Su Yanxue looked at the old man in front of her who was so respectful to her a little blankly, a little unspeakably uncomfortable, as if she was stunned for a full second or two, she bent down to help the old man up and spoke
"Old man, please get up quickly, I can't afford your gift."
"No, my lord, don't you remember anything, the reason why we can live peacefully here is thanks to you, how can you say that you can't afford this gift."
"Old man, did you recognize the wrong person, I have never seen you, and this is my first time here."
Su Yanxue, who felt that the old man must have misunderstood something, opened her mouth to express her doubts.
At this time, the old man took a step back, carefully looked at Su Yanxue for a while, and said quietly
"My lord, I didn't recognize the wrong person, but you are indeed not the same person as the one back then."
"The one back then?"
"It seems that each of them is an independent existence, but it doesn't matter, since you are here, it means that this is a chance."
After that, the old man happily wanted to lead Su Yanxue to the forest, but Su Yanxue didn't know why the old man trusted her so much, but it seemed that she could only wait and see what had changed, so she raised her feet behind the old man
"Come with me, my lord, and I'll show you our village."
The old man turned away
"Old man, please don't call me an adult"
Su Yanxue frowned and said, she was not used to the old man in front of her being called so respectful to her.
"And what should I call it?"
The old man turned his head and asked patiently, it seems that this descendant still doesn't know his identity at all, but it doesn't matter, since she can come here, it means that the divine fate is already doomed.
"Frost and snow."
After thinking for a while, Su Yanxue replied that Shuangxue was her name in the Yuesheng Pavilion, and now, since she didn't know the situation, let's use this name to hide her identity first.
"Frost and snow? Good name. ”
The old man smiled slightly and nodded thoughtfully.
"Please let the old man lead the way."
"Yes, Snow Girl."
The old man changed his words according to Su Yanxue's meaning, and led her towards the depths of the forest.
And Mu You, who was separated from Su Yanxue, came to the secret realm of the Sand Abyss that she was very familiar with with everyone at this moment, and just now I don't know what happened, Su Yanxue was taken away by a turbulence, Mu You looked around with concern, but still couldn't find Su Yanxue's figure, at this time, Ye Zhizhou also walked over
"Senior Sister Mu, are you looking for Miss Su?"
"Ye Zhizhou?"
Seeing Mu You call out his name, Ye Zhizhou pulled Yan Zifei and leaned over
"It's me, Senior Sister Mu You, this kid is Yan Zifei, my brother."
"Senior Sister Mu You."
Yan Zifei greeted Mu You helplessly, and then shook off Ye Zhizhou's hand
"You talk well, don't move your hands and feet."
But Mu You was not in the mood to gag with them now, but looked at Ye Zhizhou with a worried face
"Senior Brother Ye, what should I do if Su Yanxue is gone?"
"I thought Miss Su had been with her senior sister all the time."
Ye Zhizhou looked around, once again confirmed that he did not see Su Yanxue's figure, and replied, when he first entered this secret realm, it seemed that there was indeed a turbulence, but he was not affected at that time, so he didn't think much about it, but now it seems that something is not good.
"Senior sister, don't panic, we can walk freely in this secret realm, later, let's go find Miss Su together, I believe that Miss Su must have just landed in a different place from us."
"Okay."
