Chapter 181: Infiltrating the Valley of Incense
The southern frontier is barren, the mountains and rivers are vicious, and the miasma and poison are everywhere, and it is inaccessible to people. It is precisely because of this that southern Xinjiang has become a world of foreign fierce beasts, they drink blood, they don't know what etiquette and music are, and ordinary people will turn into a pile of white bones within three days of arriving here.
After all, the road from southern Xinjiang to the Central Plains is a dark path called the "Black Hole", where the Incense Valley is located, guarded all year round, to prevent the influx of foreign beasts into the Central Plains and endanger the common people.
Of course, this is what the patriarch of Incense Valley decided, his starting point is indeed good, and Incense Valley has also gained a great reputation because of its achievements in blocking the invasion of foreign beasts for hundreds of years, and Qingyunmen and Tianyin Pavilion are known as the three major factions of the righteous path.
But hundreds of years have passed, and the disciples of Incense Valley have changed for several generations, and they have long been fluctuating, who wants to stay in this poor and remote place in southern Xinjiang, where the mountains and rivers are dangerous? Who doesn't yearn for the prosperity of the Central Plains?
In the original plot, Shangguan Ce once mentioned the "hundred-year plan" of the Incense Valley, and tried in vain to unify the two realms of righteousness and demons, which shows that the Incense Valley has long been restless, but it has never been fully prepared.
Combined with the original plot, Zhou Xiaoning made a bold guess, maybe the Incense Valley also wants to resurrect the beast god, then they only need to avoid the enemy, let the beast god and the alien beasts invade the Central Plains, and wait until the two realms of the right and the devil are almost harmed by the beast god, and then they will come out to clean up the mess, whether it is prestige or strength, the Incense Valley will be the first in the world, what Qingyunmen, what ghost king sect can only obediently bow down.
Of course, these are all some speculations by Zhou Xiaoning, and as for whether this is really the case, he does not know.
But even if it's true, it doesn't have much to do with Zhou Xiaoning, what really happened, isn't there still the "Optimus Pillar" of Qingyunmen, not to mention that Zhang Xiaofan's existence is just to deal with these things.
The reason why I focused on the Incense Valley here was because Zhou Xiaoning had already come to the outside of the Incense Valley, and Baguio asked him for something before leaving, so he came.
"Tut-tut, these famous factions are really wealthy, and it must have cost a lot of money to build such a large and gorgeous building complex in such a poor and bad place."
Zhou Xiaoning disappeared in the clouds, looking at the Incense Valley below, shaking his head and sighing from time to time, as if he was criticizing the class enemy.
In fact, Zhou Xiaoning has been here for half a day, there is a saying that "the cloud follows the dragon, the wind follows the tiger", Zhou Xiaoning, as a real dragon clan, wants to be in harmony with the clouds and hide his body and breath It is really simple. Moreover, Zhou Xiaoning also has dragon pupils, and his eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, even if he is at an altitude of hundreds of meters, he can still count how many ants there are.
Now, Zhou Xiaoning already knows the general topography of Incense Valley, and through calculation, he has also locked three rooms, among which there may be a place he wants to find, and the next thing is to find a way to sneak in.
It's just that this creature called the gray dolphin is raised in the Incense Valley, not that this creature is so strong that Zhou Xiaoning can't sneak in. On the contrary, the strength of the gray dolphin is very weak, so weak that any strong man with a sword can be easily killed, and the only thing that is commendable is that its sense of hearing and smell is very sensitive, and it can detect the slightest abnormality. In addition, gray dolphins are very timid, and they will flee at the slightest disturbance.
The Valley of Incense took advantage of this, tying bells to the gray dolphins they raised and letting them act as a guard. Since those gray dolphins are raised by the disciples of the Incense Valley, they will not be afraid, but if a stranger breaks in, they will definitely run away if they are timid, and when the bell rings, it will be equivalent to sending an alarm signal to the disciples of the Incense Valley.
Although Zhou Xiaoning is very confident in his stealth technique, and he can also eliminate the sound by floating in the air, the smell on his body is not so easy to hide, and it is still difficult to escape the nose of the gray dolphin after all.
Fortunately, gray dolphins are nocturnal animals that sleep in their burrows during the day and come out to feed at night.
This provided Zhou Xiaoning with an opportunity to sneak in, who said that to infiltrate, you must wear night clothes at night, Zhou Xiaoning had to do the opposite.
Maybe it's the trust in the gray dolphin vigilance, and it's also the reason why he thinks he's strong and no one will break into the Incense Valley during the day, the Incense Valley didn't set up a warning circle in an important place like Qingyunmen, so he let Zhou Xiaoning put on a stealth technique, and then swaggered into the Incense Valley from the main gate in broad daylight, and it was unique to sneak in and make him so upright.
The three places that Zhou Xiaoning locked down were all tightly controlled by the disciples of the Incense Valley, and the place where Zhou Xiaoning was going was related to the secrets of the Incense Valley, and it was normal to have this level of defensive strength.
According to the route planned before, Zhou Xiaoning quickly arrived at the room closest to him, he did not alarm the disciples guarding the door, released his divine sense, locked a relatively empty place, and directly teleported in.
Zhou Xiaoning looked at the room, he only saw rows of bookshelves, picked up a few books and looked at them, they were all some exercise classics, it seems that this should be the library of Incense Valley, if a sect wants to pass it on, the exercises are naturally the top priority, no wonder there are so many people guarding here.
"Since you've come here, you can't go home empty-handed."
Zhou Xiaoning grinned, and then took out a metal ball the size of a tennis ball from the storage space, and after pinching it hard, the metal ball quickly disintegrated and turned into a miniature robot the size of a grain of rice. This robot is a new product made by the General Research and Development Institute, and although it has no combat capabilities, it has a good effect in intelligence gathering, surveillance, and scanning and analyzing items.
There are hundreds of those scattered microrobots, each scanning a book, without turning the pages, their powerful scanning function will scan the entire book word for word, and then send it to the smartphone in Zhou Xiaoning's hand. You must know that Zhou Xiaoning's mobile phone is equipped with a subsystem of the red queen, which is a real "smart" mobile phone, and the information processing speed is called a fast, and it only takes two or three seconds to sort out a classic.
Excluding those miscellaneous records, introductions to species in southern Xinjiang and other classics, Zhou Xiaoning has harvested a total of more than ten martial arts classics, hundreds of spell tips, dozens of Danfang, and more than 20 martial arts classics. Don't underestimate these martial arts classics, what can be favored by the Incense Valley and collected is naturally not ordinary, and when practiced to the extreme, it is no worse than a cultivator at the peak of the fifth order.
Although he had gained a lot, Zhou Xiaoning was still quite disappointed, except for those few high-grade pill pills, the others were of little help to him, and could only be included in the collection of the Two Realms City to increase the heritage of the Two Realms City. As for Zhou Xiaoning's most important "Incense Jade Book", he didn't even see a shadow, it seems that Incense Valley is the same as Qingyunmen, this kind of sect's foundation-based exercises are all passed down by word of mouth, even if they are recorded, they will be destroyed after reading it, so that the outflow of exercises can be avoided to the greatest extent.
After taking the benefits, Zhou Xiaoning quietly left again, not to mention, this feeling of "being a thief" is really exciting, no wonder before the catastrophe of the present world, there will be so many reports about the rich second generation being thieves and burglary, they are the same as Zhou Xiaoning, and the picture is this excitement.
The Incense Valley occupies a huge area, and Zhou Xiaoning came out of the library pavilion and walked around for more than ten minutes before coming to the second place. Repeating the old trick, Zhou Xiaoning once again easily sneaked into the room.
If the Library Pavilion is related to the inheritance of the Incense Valley, then the place where Zhou Xiaoning is now is related to the heritage of the Incense Valley, because this is the treasure room of the Incense Valley.
There is not much to say about worldly finances such as gold, silver and jewelry, Zhou Xiaoning does not lack this, but those heavenly and earthly treasures stored here, and the magic weapon elixir makes him even more interested.
Perhaps because of the long-term guarding of southern Xinjiang, the pills stored in the treasure room are mostly detoxification and healing, followed by some pills that assist in cultivation, and among them, the fire attribute is the most, should it be said that it is really worthy of the Incense Valley?
Zhou Xiaoning didn't move any of those pills, he already had the pills, and he could refine them by himself at any time if he wanted them, and he couldn't make a mistake in the Incense Burning Valley. Zhou Xiaoning also saw the magic weapon, he couldn't look down on the bad ones, and the good ones all set up enchantments, once Zhou Xiaoning forcibly broke it, it would definitely attract the attention of the Incense Valley, his goal had not been achieved, but he didn't want to make extraneous branches.
However, returning empty-handed is not Zhou Xiaoning's character, so he picked some natural treasures that he didn't have to enrich his collection, and he didn't take much, just dozens of things, as long as Incense Valley didn't do a thorough inventory, he wouldn't find that he had lost something.
Coming out of the treasure room, Zhou Xiaoning continued to walk into the depths of the Incense Valley, the last place he locked was in the deepest part of the Incense Valley, thinking that it should be there, if not, Zhou Xiaoning would probably have to consider whether to launch the king's army and force the Incense Valley.
As the so-called thing is not three, this time Zhou Xiaoning really found a place, but the bad thing is that his infiltration method also failed at this time, because Shangguan Ce was there, although Zhou Xiaoning hid his figure, but the slight energy fluctuations caused by the spatial movement still made Shangguan Ce aware of it.
"Who is the friend who trespassed on my Incense Valley Xuanhuo Altar, since he is here, why should he be afraid and dare not show up."
Shangguan Ce was careful and vigilant, he could sneak in here without alarming anyone, the person who came must be extraordinary, and the stealth secret method he used couldn't even be seen through by him, if the other party secretly attacked, it was really impossible to prevent it.
