In the hot summer, the sun is shining, and the stones at the foot of the mountain peaks are hot.

Ruan Yan, a girl in a gauze skirt, was at the foot of the Soul Cultivation Peak, as if waiting for something, and she impatiently kicked a small pebble aside with her slender feet.

A young man appeared on the mountain road, so that the girl in the gauze skirt immediately set her eyes on him.

"Did you come out?"

Looking at Ji Fan, who was dressed in a coarse cloth robe, a slightly dissatisfied smile appeared on the pretty face of the girl in the gauze skirt.

This coarse cloth-robed young man who went down the peak was Ji Fan, although he noticed that Ruan Yan was at the bottom of the mountain, but he didn't say hello when he got closer.

Regarding Ruan Yan's identity, Ji Fan knew very well in his heart that he and this junior sister were not all the way.

"Could it be that Ruan Yan is also a disciple of Shoushan?"

Ji Fan found that there was also a waist card on the girl's waist that had taken over the task of guarding the mountain, and he couldn't help but think about it secretly.

When he was in the deacon's hall before, the red-faced deacon elder clearly said that no one in Soul Raising Peak was competing with Ji Fan for the task of guarding the mountain people, and Ning Anyuan, a young woman in a plain skirt, did not mention that Ruan Yan would go with him.

"Let's go, Master Zun asked us to go to guard the mountain peak together. Seeing that Ji Fan didn't even say hello and didn't have any words, Ruan Yan said in her heart.

I haven't seen it for a while, and Ruan Yan's breath has made Ji Fan feel a little different.

"Is it the time of the Xuanxuan?"

Ji Fan knew before that Ruan Yan was a ninth-level Qi refining cultivator, so he had a guess.

Different from the nine levels of Qi refining, from the Qi Refining Period to the Tongxuan Period, it is equivalent to breaking through a big level, and it is not easy for even a monk with extraordinary natural posture to cross this hurdle.

"Huh~~~"

The Light Thunder Owl was released from the Demon Stone by Ruan Yan, and there was a long eagle roar.

"Shi Niang said that this owl is already a sixth-level demon beast, and it is comparable to a strong person in the Broken Nirvana stage of human cultivation in terms of rank!" Facing the wings of the light thunder owl, Ji Fan secretly sighed that Ruan Yan had brought an incredible combat power.

"Come up. ”

The girl in the gauze skirt urged Ji Fan on the back of the owl, revealing the temper of the eldest lady.

Ji Fan walked down the mountain road slowly, Ruan Yan was already dissatisfied, and he didn't speak yet, which made it even more difficult for them to get along with each other.

"Whew~~~"

Ji Fan pulled up with a light movement and floated onto the owl's back.

"Huh~~~"

Under Ruan Yan's instructions, the Light Thunder Owl flapped its wings and flew towards the east of the Xuanyin Mountain Range, causing the scene of the Nine Peaks of Xuanyin to quickly regress in sight.

Ji Fan, who was carried by the owl, was a little reluctant, if it was himself, he could even take the opportunity to guard the mountain peak and explore the east of the Xuanyin Mountain Range one by one.

"Could this be a rift in another dimension?"

After leaving the Xuanyin Nine Peaks and going east, Ji Fan seized the time to let go of his perception, and after a while, he found that there were some places in the mountains that were glowing with irregular gray brilliance.

"She must have some intention when she accepted the task of guarding the mountain. Ji Fan guessed that Ruan Yan had other thoughts.

If the mountain guards are patrolling inside and outside the Xuanyin Mountain Range, and the opportunity to steal into the ancient relics by themselves is obviously more than that of outsiders, and it is difficult to prevent thieves day and night.

In particular, Ji Fan found that the gray light was quite scattered in the mountains, and it might not appear anywhere, so he couldn't help but be suspicious.

"Formation?"

Feeling that there was a thick fog in the area east of the Xuanyin Mountain Range, Ji Fan was slightly surprised.

After coming to the Xuanyin Sect for nearly six years, Ji Fan had not discovered before that the Xuanyin Sect had the existence of a large array to protect the sect, at least in the range of the Xuanyin Nine Peaks, there was no large-scale formation.

It seemed that Ji Fan was blocking his breath, and Ruan Yan, the girl in the gauze skirt, didn't say anything, and directly took off the mountain guard card on her waist and threw it towards the thick mist.

"Boom!"

Not long after the mountain guard card was submerged in the fog, a loud bang rang out, and the gray fire in the sky actually rolled and spread in the thick fog.

In the firelight, a heaven and earth are like a picture scroll, gently opened a layer.

A magnificent mountain was revealed, and Ruan Yan flew down like a thunder owl like a mountain, and easily withdrew the mountain guard card that was circulating in the array.

Two huge stone statues appeared on both sides of the mountain, standing firmly and proudly in the middle of the world, taller than the mountain peak.

The stone statue stepped on the earth and looked at the sky, towering and huge, magnificent, like the beam of heaven and earth, standing there.

The recklessness and majesty of the air came to the face, and the huge size of the two stone statues was unparalleled in the Xuanyin Mountain Range.

The stone statue of the man on the left has a resolute face, and there is a third eye in the center of his eyebrows, which has a kind of anti-heaven momentum.

The stone statue of the woman on the right, with sharp claws like blades, is terrifying, and her expression is full of viciousness, as if she is overlooking all living beings.

"Go down. ”

Ruan Yan had the intention of sending Ji Fan to the place and no longer caring about him.

Ji Fan jumped off the back of the owl and landed not far from the archway at the foot of the mountain.

"Huh~~~"

The Bright Thunder Owl flapped its wings and soared upward, heading towards the peak of the majestic mountain.

Facing the stout log archway at the foot of the mountain, Ji Fan could feel that the iron painting silver hook above was engraved with the three big characters of guarding the mountain peak, which had the meaning of slaughter.

"Whew~~~"

Without waiting for the gray-tinged formation to close, a red silk also floated in the distance.

There were two people standing on the red silk, one was Han Yue, and the other was a young man with a slightly larger mouth.

"What, no one has you with you?"

Han Yue smiled at Ji Fan from afar, with a hint of ridicule.

"Is this the treasure of the Venerable Elder of the Spirit Corpse Peak, has it been passed on to her?" Ji Fan put away the red silk when Han Yue came closer, and secretly sighed that she was also very good in the Spirit Corpse Peak.

As for the young man with a slightly larger mouth in Spirit Corpse Peak, he was only eleven or twelve years old, but he was carrying a metal box that was not proportional to his body, as if he was very tired.

"Go up the hill yourself. ”

Han Yue, who was dressed as a man, took out her senior sister's style and let the young man with a slightly bigger mouth enter the archway first.

"Although this metal corpse coffin is quite heavy, compared to Qianjun Shifeng, it is a small thing, and I am afraid it can't compare with a Qianjun stone that you tie your wrists and leggings. It wasn't until the young man left with a sigh that Han Yue smiled at Ji Fan.

Ji Fan sighed with emotion, thinking of when he recommended himself in the Hundred Tombs City, how could he not be a teenager.

This adult's half-knee-square metal box, Ji Fan had seen it before when he was in the Spiritual Garden of the Hundred Tombs, there were as many as twelve, and the images engraved on them were different and quaint demons, like hideous monsters.

"I thought you wouldn't come. ”

Although Ji Fan didn't have anything to say, Han Yue was still happy to see him at Shoushan Peak.

Ji Fan knew very little about guarding the mountain peak, but he didn't ask Han Yue about it, and he had already raised his feet and walked towards the mountain gate archway.

"You should join Senior Brother Lou and settle down under the Shoushan Peak. Han Yue followed up and reminded with a smile.

Sensing Han Yue's statement, Ji Fan thought that there should be a difference between the disciples guarding the mountains during the Qi refining period and the disciples guarding the mountains in the Tongxuan period.

"Don't you have anything to ask?"

Han Yue was already unimpressed with Ji Fan, who was like wood.

In fact, Ji Fan was quite interested in the two stone statues, but from the momentum of the stone statues, he didn't feel like the head of the Xuanyin Sect.

Entering the mountain gate, facing the two lying stone beasts, Ji Fan didn't know why, and faintly felt that the stone beasts were extremely not simple.

"These two iron-spine leopards, more than ten zhang long, lying on their stomachs are like a hill, according to legend, this kind of demon beast every advanced level, the body will grow about a zhang, thick and sharp claws can tear the mountain, the rapid power is unmatched, once the tenth level to the sky, extremely terrifying. Han Yuejiao's face was a lot more solemn.

As far as Ji Fan knew, when the level of the demon beast was low, it was not the opponent of the human cultivation of the same level, but once the level of the demon beast was high, the human cultivation would be weaker compared to it.

"This kind of body shape and majesty, it is estimated that it is not something that can be covered by a large number of people!" Ji Fan knew that this kind of demon beast was terrifying through the induction of the two stone beasts.

"Do you have any thoughts on the relics of the ancient war?"

Han Yue asked Ji Fan in a whisper, which inevitably made him feel repulsed.

It's not that Ji Fan has antagonistic emotions with the children of the family, nor is it that he is afraid that the people who worship the sect will steal into the ancient relics, he just thinks that Han Yue should not say such a sensitive matter to his face, especially at Shoushan Peak, he is even afraid of being heard by the two stone beasts.

Ji Fan walked a few steps briskly on the mountain road, obviously not wanting to be with Han Yue, lest she say anything else.

"This guy!"

Han Yue saw Ji Fan leaving in a hurry, as if she had guessed his thoughts, and Jiao Yan couldn't help but show a smile.

Without waiting for the mountainside, Ji Fan walked along the stone steps of the mountain road, passed through a beech forest, and already saw a mansion.

"The Soul Cultivation Peak is here. ”

In the cultivation ground outside the house, after several teenagers and girls found Ji Fan, they exchanged with laughter.

Compared to the age of the disciples in the cultivation field, Ji Fan was obviously older, and he was also the senior brother of the Soul Cultivation Peak, so it was no wonder that several teenagers and girls would whisper.

Ji Fan, who was dressed in a coarse cloth robe, didn't even have a sword, which made people look poor and swishing without anything.

"What are you muttering, just like you, I'm embarrassed to joke here, compared to the disciples of the Tongxuan Period of the various sects, you are nothing more than borrowing light and doing what you can. The man in animal skin armor with bulging muscles said to the young disciples with a fierce expression.

"Is that him?"

Although Ji Fan recognized the man in animal skin armor, he could sense his words, but he was a little embarrassed.

This beast skin armor man was the one who was in charge of presiding over the test of the spiritual posture during the selection of disciples from the outer gate of the Yin Capital City five years ago.

"Ji Fan, it's been almost six years, do you still remember me?" The man in the beast skin armor was not surprised that Ji Fan closed his eyes.

"Meet Senior Brother. ”

Ji Fan felt that the man in the animal skin armor was not a disciple of Xuanyin Jiufeng, so he still saluted him.

"You are now also a senior brother of the Soul Peak, you don't need to be so polite, but whether it is guarding the mountain peak or in the sect, you are speaking with strength, my name is Xiong Yan, a disciple of the Elder Peak. "The man in the animal skin armor is indeed fierce and rough, and he is not very good at talking.

"Is strength respected?"

Ji Fan secretly agreed with the statement of the beast skin armor man, but he didn't want to compete with his peers.

The reason why he took over the task of guarding the mountain was that Ji Fan felt that he could walk around inside and outside the Xuanyin Mountain Range, and maybe he could find some opportunities.

Before going down to the peak, Ji Fan had explored Qianjun Jie, and found that there were not only wrists, leggings, and Qianjun Peak inside, but also a whole hundred small corpse coffins, he guessed that it should be put in by the master Mu Huaisheng, and it was obviously of great significance to prepare so many corpse coffins.
