Chapter 22: A Trip to Xuanhuang Mountain
The day of the opening of the Valley of the Burial Gods finally came, and tens of thousands of monks under Xuanhuang Mountain also began to act quickly.
Chu Xuan, Liu Xuan and other young disciples of the Southern Sword Sect were almost all out of the mountain for the first time, so they had no experience in this area, so they could only obey the arrangements of the team leader Lu Kang.
At the foot of Xuanhuang Mountain, the intersection of the mountain was already crowded with monks from various sects and even countries. The crowd was full of voices, shoulder to shoulder, and the scene was very chaotic. Not to be outdone, everyone wanted to be the first to rush forward.
At the beginning, everyone was hindered by the face of the Beiliang court, so the officers and soldiers sent by Beiliang were still able to maintain order. Later, when some monks couldn't help themselves and tried to sneak up on everyone while they weren't paying attention, the scene began to become uncontrollable.
"Why do you want to take the lead, get out of here!"
"Phew, aren't you three-year-old children in Longyang Palace?"
"It's a big fist that has the final say, I think you're looking for death!"
Because of the problem of going up the mountain, many sects that originally had old grudges began to attack each other for a while, and then they started fighting.
"Let's go!"
Lu Kang saw the opportunity, took advantage of the chaos of the scene and no one cared about them, and immediately led the disciples of the Southern Sword Sect and several other forces of the allied sect to secretly rush towards the mountain road. There are also many forces that have not just joined the war.
"Oh no! Someone has already gone in!"
At the foot of the mountain, the monks who were fighting fiercely reacted and rushed towards the mountain road. But their sects were too mixed, there were too many people, and they didn't give in to each other, so they fought again when they came to the intersection.
Chu Xuan followed everyone quickly, and on the other hand, he was always aware that he might lose Liu Xuan. The monks who went up the mountain all used their methods at this moment, and climbed quickly on the mountain road, lest they be robbed of the first place.
Just as everyone was trying to move forward, many monks who had been fighting at the intersection gradually came behind them. These monks were all forces that had won in the fierce battle, and they had just started to kill rightly, and when they saw someone standing in front of them, they immediately killed the people in front of them with red eyes.
"The dog thief in front!
"Get out of here!
Once again, the scene became chaotic, and many people had to defend themselves, thus delaying the time to go up the mountain.
Chu Xuan's team of monks was also affected, and several allied forces were immediately dragged behind.
"Let's go first!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Kang immediately made a decision and ordered everyone to abandon their allies and move towards the mountain at full speed.
Under his leadership, more than 50 disciples of the Southern Sword Sect finally escaped from danger. They escaped at the same time as hundreds of disciples of the allied sect. The monks who had just fought were left behind by them.
After escaping from the danger, everyone did not dare to delay for a moment, and almost exhausted the spiritual power of their whole body, using the fastest speed in their lives, and walked along the mountain road to a high place. For some reason, as the crowd rose higher and higher, they consumed more spiritual power than before. If this continues, those young disciples who have cultivated shallowly are afraid that the spiritual sea will soon dry up. No, Lu Kang had to ask everyone to slow down.
After dark, everyone gathered together, and they didn't dare to raise the fire, and the spiritual power was almost consumed, so they had to walk step by step towards the mountain with two feet. They had walked for a day and a night, and they had not yet finished half of their journey.
At dawn on the second day, the crowd continued their departure. Chu Xuan looked down at the surroundings of Xuanhuang Mountain, and his eyes were full of white fog, and he did not see the rising sun, as if the sunlight from the outside world could not shine here at all. This Xuanhuang Mountain is really weird.
"Brother Chu Xuan, what are you looking at?"
Liu Xuan was behind him, suddenly hugged her, and asked gently.
Chu Xuan shook his head, turned around and took her hand, and said, "Let's go, girl, follow Leader Lu, I can't say that those people behind will catch up." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion behind him, and the monks who had been lagging behind yesterday had arrived again.
"There's someone ahead!
Tut.
Chu Xuan couldn't help but be depressed, when did he get so accurate? The rest of the crowd also heard the movement and fled one after another.
After escaping for a few hours, they finally threw off the pursuers behind them again, but everyone suddenly found that there was no way ahead. In front of him are a series of rocky cliffs that are high above the head, like monsters in front of everyone's eyes.
Just when everyone was at a loss, the group of plague gods behind them actually chased after them again, and even if many people were injured by them, including many disciples of the Southern Sword Sect.
"Ahh
Some of the unlucky guys were shot down from between the cliffs, and after a few screams, they disappeared without a trace.
The situation is so precarious!
"I'm stunned, don't hurry up!"
Under Lu Kang's reminder, everyone woke up like a dream, and hurriedly used the method of getting up again, moving up to the cliffs in front of them.
Because he was afraid that Liu Xuan would be injured, Chu Xuan protected her tightly, avoiding the collision of other monks while carefully observing the road conditions ahead, and flying in the air between the rocks and cliffs.
As the crowd flew higher and higher, strange things began to happen one after another.
First, someone flew to the rocks at a high place, intending to move with their strength, but they didn't want to suddenly stretch out a pair of black hands in the rocks, grabbed the opponent's feet, and pulled the opponent into the rocks.
Then a few more monks, as soon as they fell to a high place, the cliff under their feet instantly collapsed, and then these people also fell like flies with broken wings.
Seeing that the living people disappeared in front of the public, and they didn't even have time to let out a scream, everyone couldn't help but stand on end, and cold sweat flowed.
"Brother Chu Xuan......"
Because she was afraid, Liu Xuan subconsciously evoked Chu Xuan's name.
"Don't be afraid, Xuan'er, I will stand on top of the sky when it falls. ”
Although Chu Xuan was comforting the other party, his heart was pounding. While taking care of Liu Xuan beside him, he also had to pay attention to the surrounding environment, and the mental pressure was very huge.
Fortunately, everyone flew for a long time, and finally left the rocky cliff and came to a huge cliff platform that protruded to the side, and the strange things before did not happen again.
Although the strange thing did not happen, the resentment of the monks broke out again.
"Good boy, you are the one who is fighting against the old man, right? Come on, come on, see if the old man doesn't beat you to death here today!"
"The old man is so rampant! Who is afraid of whom!"
The crowd cursed and scolded, seeing that they were about to fight again. At this moment, there was a sudden strange sound in the sky, like the chirping of some monster. Immediately after, countless strange birds suddenly swooped down from the clouds.
These strange birds were born extremely ugly, with heads like human heads, necks like long snakes, and a pair of wings covering the sky and the sun. Although it looks like a bird, it has not a single feather on its body.
Everyone on the cliff platform was about to make a move, and after hearing the chirping of strange birds, they were all stunned on the spot for a while.
