Before leaving.

I explained to the mountain ghost: "Lord Mountain Ghost, Hua Yuyan will stay in your village and let her rest well, and I must not let her know that I went to Wutong Ancient Land." ”

"Don't worry, I'll take care of her." The mountain ghost said.

Leaving from the female Dong village and going to the ancient land of Wutong, I didn't know how to walk the road in the mountains. However, the mountain ghost has an arrangement. She asked the Miao girl from before to lead the way for me, her name was Camellia.

In the female Dong village, Camellia is the only person who has been to the ancient land of Wutong except for the mountain ghosts, so only she can lead the way.

On the way, I asked her why their village was called a women's village outside. She said that those rumors are all false, what kind of marriage, what men can stay overnight, ordinary people come here, even their village can't enter, let alone stay. Maybe outsiders think it's mysterious, so they make up some stories.

In addition, the people living in their village are not people, but mountain spirits, all of whom are subordinates of mountain ghosts. In this case, the camellia that traveled with me should also be a mountain spirit, I asked her, but she didn't tell me.

Later, I asked again, what happened to the dead in Cangmao Town?

She said that she didn't know about this matter, and it was estimated that it had little to do with the demons, after all, the demons had not yet reappeared, and they did not dare to show up and kill innocents. Otherwise, if you are spied on by the way of heaven, you will be killed. Of course, the death of those people has nothing to do with the female Dong village, and she also said just now that ordinary people can't enter the female Dong village.

Come to think of it, those dead people in Cangmao Town must be the poisonous hands of Ma Zhenlei and Luo Jinhong.

Camellia brought two black robes of the demon clan, of course, these are all imitations from her.

When we entered the Wutong Ancient Land, we put on these two black robes. In the ancient land of Wutong, there is a demon hall, and it is said that the thing left by the demon ancestor Luo Hu is in the abyss below the demon hall. Moreover, the power of the demon clan in the Wutong Ancient Land is very strong, and if it is taken by force, it can almost be said that there is no possibility.

So, just the two of us, there is only one way, and that is to blend in and outwit.

When I mixed in with Camellia, I realized that Camellia was not wrong at all, this Wutong Ancient Land is simply a magic city, there are countless demon people, and there is a fierce atmosphere everywhere, the bloody wind is blowing, and the dead air is rampant. In addition, Camellia told me that there is more than one demon city like this, and the demon clan now has nine major cities and occupies nine dead places.

Although it is said that the demon race was wiped out more than a thousand years ago, the demon race still has a very strong force. From this, I also thought of the ghost path behind me, except for Ying Gou and Bai Xiangu, there are almost no other forces, not to mention anything else, just this magic city, it is stronger than my ghost road, this is an indisputable fact.

There is still a long way to go.

After we infiltrated the Demon City, I heard that many of the demon people were talking about it, that person was coming. What they are referring to is naturally the person chosen by the demon race.

Break into the Demon Palace, where the guards are heavily guarded, and the movement is too great.

So, I thought about it for a moment and said, "Camellia, it's better to be like this, my technique, combined with Qingping's sword qi, can condense endless fierce qi." Aren't they waiting for that person, you just pretend to be a demon messenger, I'm that person, let's try it! ”

"No, it's too dangerous for you to do this, I promised the mountain ghost to be responsible for your safety." Camellia said firmly.

"Camellia, there is no other way now." I said.

Camellia thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was really no other way now, if she broke in, it would be more dangerous, so she had to say: "Okay, don't say my idea when the time comes, lest I be punished by the mountain ghosts." ”

"Don't worry, all the responsibility will fall back to me." I said.

After speaking, we found a hidden place, sensed Qingping's sword intent, condensed the endless ferocious aura, and gave Camellia a point, and then, the two of us walked towards the Demon Palace.

Along the way, I found that although there is no grass growing in this ancient land of sycamores, I can still see some sycamore tree stumps, which should be the ruins of the former sycamore forest. It seems that the legend is right, this is indeed the ancestral vein of the Phoenix clan in the past, the Sycamore Forest.

I walked away, but I was getting closer and closer to the Demon Temple.

Suddenly, a black-robed man rushed over, I thought it was the demon guards who found us, and I wanted to make a move, but unexpectedly, she whispered: "Come with me!" ”

There is almost no ferocious aura on her body, and she is not a member of the demon race.

If there was a dispute here, the two of us would inevitably be exposed, so I didn't hesitate to take Camellia and the man to the dark place immediately.

"Who are you? What are you bringing us here for? I asked.

She put down the hood of her black robe, revealing a woman's face, and then, looking at me, looked me up and down again, and then she said, "I've been waiting for you here, I've been waiting for almost half a month, are you Lin Yi?" ”

"I am. Who are you? I asked.

"You come with me, and you'll know."

Seeing that Camellia and I were not moving, she said again, "You guys can't enter the Demon Temple like this." Even if you go in, the Wutong Demon Palace, the three major hall masters, have a fierce array to guard the Demon Palace. If it weren't for the demon people to enter, no matter how high the cultivation was, they would be robbed of their vitality, and there would only be a dead end. ”

Although this person is in the Wutong Ancient Land, she is definitely not from the Demon Clan, because she does not have the slightest ferocious aura on her.

At this time, a voice came from not far away, saying, "What about those two suspicious people just now?" ”

"In that alley!"

"Chase!"

"Yes!"

The woman looked at us, and she said, "This is not the place to talk, let's go!" ”

I nodded, and followed her down a path, zigzags, and detoured for a long time before I got rid of the demons. Then we came to a canyon, and the woman said, "There used to be a beautiful mountain stream here, but now it's like this." ”

As she said this, I saw the pavilion on the top of the hill on the other side, and this scene was very similar to what I had seen in my dream, except that there was no river here, and the mountains were lifeless, and there was no vegetation.

"More than a thousand years ago, it was still beautiful, and here, everywhere was full of plane trees." She sighed.

"You're from the Phoenix Clan?" I asked immediately.

However, she smiled bitterly and said, "The Phoenix clan is long gone. We are now nothing more than slaves of the demons. ”

After she said this, a lot of black-robed people came out nearby, and they didn't have a fierce aura on them, they should all be from the Phoenix clan. It turned out that the Phoenix clan did not disappear, they only became slaves of the demons after the demons occupied the land of Wutong.

Unexpectedly, these people in front of me are all Weiyang's clansmen.

Although I don't know them, I feel that they are very close because of Weiyang's relationship.

"Phoenix clan, how many people are there?" I asked.

The woman pointed to the other side of the canyon and said, "They are all there." ”

Then, I crossed this canyon with the people of the Phoenix clan. As I passed through the canyon, I faintly heard the sound of singing.

I couldn't help but stop, the voice was like nothing, but it was clearly a song of a phoenix.

"Childe, in this canyon, there is singing from time to time." The woman said earlier.

"Who sings?" I asked.

She shook her head slightly.

I followed them up to the top of the mountain opposite, stood in the pavilion, and suddenly thought of the other side of the mountain, the endless plane forest, surrounded by fairy mist. However, at this time, as far as the eye can see, there is only dead wood. The ferocious aura was rampant, and between the dead trees, there was no life, only a few black fogs.

The woman led me into a forest of dead trees, and in the depths of the forest there were many dilapidated wooden buildings.

It looks like a primitive tribe. And where the wooden buildings are most concentrated, there is a wooden building built by the trees is the most grandiose.

In contrast, among these wooden buildings, this wooden building belongs to the palace level, and the woman said, their old patriarch is waiting for me in the wooden building.

All the way through, after entering the house, I saw an old lady.

She was too old, and her face was full of furrows, but I seemed to have seen this face somewhere, but I couldn't think clearly. When she saw me, she didn't speak, but she burst into tears.

"You...... You're finally here! She seemed overly excited and trembling, and finally said a word.

"Do you recognize me?" I asked.

Although the old lady looked a little inexplicably familiar, I had never seen such an old man, and she looked like she was more than a hundred years old according to the age of ordinary human beings.

"It's more than just recognizing! More than a thousand years ago, my Phoenix clan was wiped out, and the last bloodline was about to disappear. It was you, who ventured to walk the ancient land of Wutong, and told me that I should endure the humiliation and burden, even if I was a slave with the demon clan, I had to wait. One day, you will come, but I didn't expect that this wait would be more than a thousand years. Still, you're here anyway! ”

When she said these words, she was very excited and trembling.

I was worried that she would not be able to stand on her feet, so I immediately went over and helped her.

"You said it, but the Ghost Dao Sect Master?" I asked her.

"Of course, if it's not you, who else can there be? The old body and I watch the sky at night, confusing the stars, and guarding the heart, it's not that you have found your destiny, and who can sacrifice such a star? She said, it turned out that she saw the stars, and she thought that I would come to the Wutong Ancient Land, so she ordered her clan to wait outside the Demon Temple.

After the old lady finished speaking, she motioned to me and walked out of the wooden building. Then, I saw that the people of the Phoenix clan outside had gathered.

The old patriarch looked at me and said to them, "Here he comes! ”

The people of the Phoenix clan all know what this sentence "he is here" means. They have been waiting for this sentence for thousands of years.

This sentence is also the only hope for their phoenix clan, who have endured humiliation and burdens for more than a thousand years.

I could see the anticipation in their eyes, and my heart, for some reason, suddenly began to boil, perhaps ignited by their burning gaze.

Looking at them, I couldn't help but say, "From today onwards, the Phoenix clan will no longer be slaves!" ”

For a time, the crowd was furious.

Together, they raised their arms and shouted: "The Phoenix Clan, no longer a slave!" ”
