In a tent in a mercenary station, the dim candlelight fell on a white piece of paper on the desk, as if someone had a clever pen and painted the appearance of a person.

"Big brother!" the man who walked into the tent lit a few candles and said respectfully to the tall man sitting on the side.

"You're here. Hearing someone calling him, the big man stood up, his tall figure covering the flame of the candle, and casting a shadow. He walked to the front of the case, picked up the paper, handed it to the visitor, and said, "Hong Qing, the head of the family sent a letter a few days ago, asking us to find out the daily whereabouts of this young man. ”

"Oh?" said to himself, "There are not many people who can make the Lord feel good, dressed in gray, dressed as a scribe, and he raised his eyebrows. ”

"It's him!" said the scribe, picking up the paper, and after just one glance, he was surprised.

"Do you know?" the big man in the darkness also exclaimed in surprise.

A few days ago, there was a lot of uproar, saying that it was a rare genius in Wucheng for thousands of years. The scribe put the paper aside and whispered, "This morning I found the body of Shi San, who disappeared last night, under the locust tree in the back camp, and the death was extremely horrible, as if the blood had been drained!"

The big man frowned and said, "Are there any spirit beasts around here?"

The scribe shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is, but I have already handed this matter over to the third and fourth children to investigate...... he didn't finish his words, only heard a noisy sound outside, and someone shouted: "There is a boy there, dare to kill people here!"

When the big man heard this, he frowned and said, "Go out and take a look!" He grabbed it first and went around to the back of the camp, but he saw that under a locust tree, the young man in purple was standing tall and jade. I saw two corpses beside the young man. He knew both of these corpses, and he was full of anger at the moment, and he wanted to go crazy, and he slashed his right palm, and the sparks on the edge of his palm burst out, and there was a cracking sound.

The young man said in his heart: "When it comes to fire vitality, you are only afraid that you are not qualified!" The purple qi on his fist was thick, but when he heard the sound of "bang", the young man's cultivation was weak, and he was shocked back a few steps, but the purple qi made the big man's palm burn.

"Are you Yu Xuan?" Da Han asked in a deep voice as he remembered the portrait.

The young man induced internal breathing, relieved the soreness and numbness on his arm, and then nodded. He saw the demon wolf jumping down the mountain just in time, and after a while, he was in a hurry, and he also retreated to the side of the cliff.

The big man said sharply: "I can't find you, but you sent it to the door by yourself!" The right palm made a few strokes in the void, and the sparks on the palm scorched and glowed, as if his palm was a match, and the void was a flame.

Yu Xuan smiled: "This martial art is wonderful!" With a flip of his palm, the scorching energy was like a knife, slashing through Yu Xuan's palm, but he saw that in the void behind Yu Xuan, the air fluctuated a few times.

Seeing that his strength didn't hurt Yu Xuan at all, Dahan secretly shouted in his heart: "This martial art of unloading strength is so wonderful, it seems to be more clever than the young master." ”

Yu Xuan said with a smile: "Your Excellency is the senior of Hong Feng. ”

The big man said "hey" and said: "Seniors don't have to ......" His body moved, and he was about to rush over, but he heard someone behind him: "It's on fire, the tent of the demon wolf predecessor is on fire!"

Dahan turned around and asked, "What about the demon wolf senior?"

The mercenary said, "The demon wolf predecessor is also gone." ”

Dahan nodded, and when he turned to look, he scolded angrily: "Damn, I was tricked!" It turned out that the side of the cliff was empty, and Yu Xuan had already jumped down.

This mountain is only fifteen or sixteen zhang high, and it is only ten zhang down from the mountainside. And there are many trees of various colors growing on the cliff wall, which are excellent places to borrow.

At that moment, Yu Xuan ran all the way to the west, and by about evening, he had already left the boundary of Wucheng. I also saw that outside the city of Wu was an endless mountain range, and among the mountains, there were thousands of valleys of different sizes. The valley mouths are extremely steep and narrow, and the valleys are extremely deep and dangerous, and the clouds and mist are blocked, and the sky is not visible.

I saw a figure in black leaping like the wind on the road, and his body was extremely light. And behind the figure, another purple-shirted young man followed not far away.

After a while, both entered the valley. I saw that there are thousands of zhang in the valley, and there are thousands of black boulders more than 100 zhang high, and the stone is engraved with faint lines, which seems to be very ancient.

It was already evening, the valley was dark, and I saw a slight black mist under the boulder, which looked very strange.

When Yu Xuan saw this stone formation for the first time, he didn't know the secret, so he only dared to walk around the formation. But the demon wolf walked into the middle of the formation and sat down cross-legged. With a wave of the sleeves of his robe, a black ancient tripod appeared out of thin air, and with a "bell", it fell to the ground and stirred up smoke and dust.

Yu Xuan secretly said in his heart: "What is he doing here, alchemy?"

But when he saw the demon wolf slap his backhand, he trembled. As soon as the sound sounded, the stone formation immediately surged up with black mist, and in the air above the big ding, it condensed into two huge beast shapes, a dragon and a tiger, about a dozen zhang in size.

"It's done! With the help of the dead soul to heal the wounds, it can be said that the result is twice the result with half the effort. The demon wolf's face was overjoyed, and then the sleeves of his robe waved, and the gray qi in the sleeves gathered around him, forming a heavy curtain of ashes, and Yu Xuan was invisible. But the demon wolf said coldly: "Originally, I didn't have time to kill you, but you sent it to the door!"

Yu Xuan was shocked when he heard this: "It turns out that he has already discovered me, could it be that his spiritual sense is much stronger than that of ordinary spiritual realms." Suddenly, the black mist in the stone henge surged, and it condensed into a beast shape in the void, similar to a tiger and leopard, but there were horns on the top of the head, from head to tail, about three zhang long.

Yu Xuan's palm was used as a knife, and he slashed down diagonally, and an invisible energy was across the void, which was the annihilation strength. But the strength split through the black mist, and the black mist split into two halves, regrouping one left and one right behind him, turning into a black beast again.

Yu Xuan secretly shouted: "It's a pity that my cultivation is not enough, if this palm is a vitality and not just an invisible force, it can be completely refined." ”

The black beast had several ups and downs, no matter how sharp Yu Xuan's palm was, if he broke the beast shape a few times, it would eventually recover. Yu Xuan's heart was anxious, and he thought to himself: "No matter how I cultivate, there will be a time when my vitality will be exhausted. So as soon as the toes touched the ground, the figure jumped up lightly, like willow branches and leaves, moving with the wind.

So far, Yu Lie has passed on a total of two martial arts skills to him. One is annihilation, and the other is a flowing cloud body. Liuyun's body is a body martial art, and with his current cultivation, he has not yet comprehended one-tenth of it. But with a light body and a flying sleeve, he was finally able to force the black beast far away.

Suddenly, Yu Xuan stepped on his feet, but secretly shouted in his heart: "It's not good, it's better to walk into the formation!" When he turned around and walked back, he was already in a daze and didn't know the path.

This stone formation itself implies a phantom array, the two formations are overlapped, even if it is the cultivation of the Nine Yuan Realm, you can't get out if you don't understand the formation. At that moment, Yu Xuan's whole body was swirling with purple air, and he was protected five or six feet in front of him, and the black qi next to him could not refine him into ashes like an iron-spine wolf. But it won't take long for the vitality to run like this, at most for a moment or three, and the body will be exposed to the array.

Yu Xuan was anxious, his figure fluttering in the air, his sleeves flicking. Suddenly, I saw a white back figure standing not far away in the black fog. He had also seen this back, and it was this back that led him out that day in the ancient cave. At that moment, my heart moved slightly: "Could it be that this saved me for my predecessors that day?" He appears now, maybe he can just point me out. ”

I saw that the figure stood still, and saw the black mist rushing up, and it was transformed in the surrounding void, all in the shape of some wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, and then said: "The black qi in this large array is called 'Dead Soul Qi', and it needs to refine countless souls, and each soul must not be lower than the cultivation of the Nine Yuan Realm before death, if there is a soul that is not, this kind of vitality cannot be condensed." And the gray qi gushing out of his body is called 'Thousand Tribulation Soul Qi', which has the same origin as 'Dead Soul Qi' and can be complementary. ”

When Yu Xuan heard this, he was secretly shocked in his heart: "The Nine Yuan Realm is in the entire Ancient Xia Empire, and there will not be more than a hundred, not to mention that all of them have the ability to reach the sky, how easy is it to kill?"

The old man said "um" and said, "Originally, there was no ......" Suddenly an extremely high-pitched birdsong in the void shook the mountains, and then the gray mist gathered, and a pair of huge black wings covered the void, and I didn't know if it was hundreds or thousands of zhang, only to see that the valley was suddenly dark.

When Yu Xuan heard this birdsong, his qi and blood surged, his chest seemed to be about to explode, and as soon as his body fell, he fell into the sleeve of a soft robe. I don't know how long it took, but suddenly my body was extremely hot, as if I was tormented by fire, and I saw the words "Aoyan Ancient Blade" appear again and again in my mind. At the beginning, these four characters were dignified and simple, upright in italics, and elongated with the font, turning into elegant cursive. Later, the four characters were disorganized, the strokes were disorderly, and they were no longer like words.

As soon as these four words appeared, the vitality in his body kept circulating, and then he seemed to hear someone speak: "The four characters are infinitely useful, each has its own useful method, and it must be cultivated according to the ...... every day" As soon as the words fell, I saw a blur in front of me, and I saw an old man sitting cross-legged not far away.

said that he was an old man, but in fact, in addition to his beard and hair were white, his skin was no different from that of a young man, and he did not see his old age.

Yu Xuan was slightly stunned, and then bowed deeply.

The old man smiled: "It seems that these days, you have been practicing the 'ancient recipe' diligently, and you have not put aside the slightest bit. ”

Yu Xuan asked: "Was it really the seniors who saved me that day?" and passed on my exercises, but I was afraid that it would make the seniors fall in love." ”

The old man said with a smile: "Originally, you have your own family martial arts, and the old man shouldn't be overstepping, but the exercises in my sect are suitable for you to practice, but it is unexpected." ”

Yu Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Do the seniors know the elders in my family?"

The old man nodded and said, "I have known your grandfather for hundreds of years, and now I am dying before anyone. ”

"Grandpa?" Yu Xuan couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and suddenly saw a man in black holding a black boulder and slowly walking out of the big array. Only then did he see clearly that he was at the top of the valley, and when he looked down, he happened to see the demon wolf's mouth spilling blood, and he was embarrassed. At this time, the old man said: "His soul has been hit hard, and he borrowed soul energy to heal his wounds in the 'Ten Thousand Souls Array', and the Ding furnace is called the 'Thousand Tribulation Soul Ding', there are thirty-six in the world, and that person can carry it with him, and the identity does not seem to be difficult to guess." ”

Yu Xuan couldn't help but ask, "He's just a down-and-out killer, what else does he have?"

The old man smiled and didn't answer, but said: "Let's go, the formation master of this stone formation is here, and it should be sensing that someone is coming here, so he urged the Kunpeng Dead Soul to kill people from afar." ”
