Chapter 1 The Storm Begins
The valley where the Cosmos Sword Shrine is located covers an extremely vast area, and the major gangs that entered one step earlier have disbanded their teams and fought separately. This is not just because it is more beneficial to explore the sword shrine separately, but after all, everyone has their own opportunities, and in this treasure land where crisis and opportunity coexist, the vast majority of people only choose to believe in themselves.
After Xuanyi led the group deep into the Sword Shrine Valley, he stopped in front of a fork in the road: "Brothers, let's say goodbye, remember that after three days, regardless of whether the harvest is or not, we must rush to the exit of the valley to meet." ”
"Yes!" the Scarlet Alliance gang of fellow citizens arrived, and then dispersed. After several martial arts competitions, Xuanyi successfully brushed up on his "popularity", and now he has a faint leader in the younger generation of the Scarlet Alliance, and everyone admires his martial arts attainments.
Xuanyi walked under a tree, carefully checked everything such as dry food and drinking water, weapon maps, etc., and then clicked on the personal martial arts panel, the internal force and soul power were all full value, the divine power value was 8 points left, and the magic value was only 25 points.
Just as Xuanyi was checking his luggage, a dense sound of footsteps came, and four men in brocade robes came on foot from the mountain road in the distance, approaching Xuanyi in an instant.
The four of them stood still in front of Xuanyi with swords in hand, and their eagle-like eyes looked at Xuanyi, which made Xuanyi unhappy, frowned slightly, and unconsciously clenched the sword behind him.
The man led by the other party took his eyes off Xuanyi for a long time, shook his head slightly, and the four of them looked at each other and quickly left towards the nearest road.
"It's an unidentified person again!" Xuan Yi looked at the place where the four disappeared and secretly slandered, Mu Zhixin couldn't find out the details of the four people, it seems that these four people must have some connection with the person who claimed to be a dark ghost who spied on the night a few days ago.
Combined with some previous clues, Xuan Yi concluded that these people were likely to come for the fifth prince Hong Yeyu. This time, the third prince and the fifth prince both entered the sword mound, and both sides should have the same purpose, and it seems that a dragon battle must be indispensable.
But none of this has anything to do with me! Xuanyi shook his head as if throwing his chaotic thoughts out of his head: I am an alien visitor to this world, an alien! The ultimate goal is just to return to Earth!
His eyes were slightly closed and there was a hint of murderous intent: If anyone affects my interests! No matter if you are the third prince or the fifth prince, you will not give up.
Although the sword mound has buried the ancestors and outstanding disciples of the Huanyu Sword Sect for hundreds of years, it does not exist in the valley in the form of a tomb. At least Xuanyi searched for most of the day, not to mention the grave, and even found a small mound similar to the grave.
It seemed that he was looking in the wrong direction, Xuanyi took out the map and looked at it again, in addition to marking a few important landmark place names on the simple map, it was a bright red in the middle - representing the extremely dangerous miasma poison pool.
Xuanyi compared the paths, and found that his current position was only about fifty miles away from the poison pool, and it could be reached in half a day according to the current travel speed.
According to the Cosmos Sword Sect, the poison pool here is currently in a period of silence, and a large-scale and deadly poisonous miasma will erupt at noon three days later, and his body is backed by two talents of anti-virus and anti-poison, and a little poisonous gas should not kill him.
After a short rest, Xuanyi hurriedly took action, and the scenery in the valley was dense with trees. Xuanyi only saw a lot of wild animals playing leisurely along the way, and he didn't see any martial arts people who entered the Sword Shrine to hunt for treasures.
Half a day passed in a hurry, and the poison pool seemed to be in front of him, and there was a strong fishy smell in the air. Looking into the distance, I found that there was a faint gray smoke shrouded in the sky over a mountain forest, and the breeze blew and still stubbornly gathered in the air and refused to disperse.
The poison pool was roughly ahead, and Xuanyi drew his sword and approached the woods lightly with his hands and feet.
Near noon, the sun in the valley seemed to be covered with a light veil, far less scorching than the sun outside, and only a slight feeling of warmth shining on people.
Xuanyi carefully brushed aside the thorns in his way, barely making a sound like a nimble predator. He felt as if his body instinctively liked the feeling of being close to nature in the sun.
Walking lightly, branches, fallen leaves, thorns, and weeds are no longer obstacles, but more like instinctively coming up and "gathering" around you.
"Feel the kindness from nature and activate the potential of the physique: the primary nature spirit. The hint of the wood core jumped out very abruptly.
"Beginner Nature Spirit: When moving in any mountainous terrain, gain +20 body skills and reduce the chance of being detected by 50%. Xuanyi was happy in his heart, this potential came at a very good time, as long as he sneaked close to the target in the mountains and wilderness, the success rate was much greater, which was equivalent to a natural protective color.
Sunlight shines through the cracks in the branches, and spots of light of different shapes appear on the ground. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in front of Xuanyi's eyes, and Xuanyi instantly lowered his body and stiffened as if he had been electrocuted.
There was a person on the tree a few meters ahead! The previous light should have been inadvertently refracted by the weapon held by that person!
Xuanyi slowed down and approached the suspicious tree little by little, and as expected, a thin man of medium stature was squatting in the dense canopy, holding a crossbow machine in his hand and constantly scanning the surroundings, and the quenching arrows of the crossbow machine glowed with a hideous cold light.
After some careful investigation, Xuanyi found that there was more than one sentry similar to the man, and there was one person hidden in the tree every few tens of meters, that is to say, the mountain road leading to the front of the poison pool was already under the control and surveillance of this group.
Once again, a random scan was launched at one of them, and this time the personal information was finally no longer hidden.
"Personal identity: Luo Guangsheng, male, 33 years old, secret guard of Xichuan Prefecture. ”
"Combat power assessment: Ability level A, combat power value 27320, potential value S. ”
The back is a dense collection of detailed information on personal martial arts.
After closing the scanning interface, Xuanyi fell into deep thought: The secret guards of Xichuan Mansion are not the subordinates of Hong Yeyu, the fifth prince who was named the king of Xichuan!
According to the regulations for entering the Huanyu Sword Shrine, Hong Yeyu can only bring in a maximum of nine people, and four people have been arranged to guard in this forest, and the rest should be on the edge of the poison pool inside.
This poisonous pool must not be simple, maybe there is some peerless treasure buried, Xuanyi thought secretly.
