Eastern Continent, Liuyun Palace.

These days, for Qin Shan, the lord of the Flowing Cloud Palace, it is undoubtedly the most upset and irritable day. Since the last Demon Slaying Battle on the Divine Cry Battlefield has passed, the Eastern Continent is no longer calm, and the various sects that originally thought that they would start to friction with each other again will once again unite because of a common enemy.

In fact, it backfired.

After that battle, I don't know if other sects were afraid, or if they realized their weakness, and most of them closed their doors. The rest, I don't know where they learned about the retreat of Xuanyuan Futu, and for a while wanted to re-elect the Eastern Continent's Niu'er forces.

Of course, Qin Shan naturally disagreed, and this matter was almost pressed in this kind of place, neither advancing nor retreating. Anyway, no one dares to take the initiative to stir up trouble, and once the deadlock and balance are broken, it will be out of control.

Half a month ago, news came from Zhongyu, saying that it was a letter to Xuanyuan Futu. As for where it came from, the other party did not explain, and he had to meet Xuanyuan Futu in person.

In the end, Qin Shan received the letter as the lord of the first hall, and did not hand it over to Xuanyuan Futu, who was still in retreat, but opened it himself. As he had guessed, it was indeed a letter from the Oblivion Pavilion. The content of it made his heart sink.

Just in case, and he didn't want the last tragedy to happen again, he ordered all the disciples in the hall to search for anything unusual in the Eastern Continent under the leadership of the elders.

As a result, more than ten days have passed, and there is no discovery in the return, but the ten teams of people sent out have mysteriously disappeared into three groups, and there are no people alive or dead, as if they have evaporated from the world.

At first, only one group lost contact, so the other two groups of troops were in one place to investigate, but they also never returned......

His fingers tapped heavily on an area marked by a red circle on the map, and Qin Shan's eyes revealed a faint look of horror.

"Nightmare ...... If I'm not mistaken, this is a cursed land with a legend similar to the Divine Cry Battlefield! Could it be that the disaster recorded in the ancient books, which almost wiped out all living beings on the continent three thousand years ago, will appear again?"

His right hand clenched his fist on the armrest of the seat, and he raised his head and drank: "Come on, recall all the disciples and elders of the Liuyun Palace!" Also, inform the Yanshen Palace, the Great Wilderness Tower, the Autumn Maple Valley, and the Haoming Sect, I have something important to ask them to discuss with their families." If you are willing to come, you will be given a generous gift first, and then you will be rewarded. ”

......

Early in the morning, Zhuyan Village.

Yang Kun, who lived at the entrance of the village, looked up at the mountains in the distance, it was already the third day, and after the second group of people from the Liuyun Hall entered, there was no more news.

At the beginning, he was also full of ambition when he was young, and he took the sale of the family property passed down from his ancestors in exchange for some entanglements, and then embarked on the road of cultivation. What I think is very simple, there are many sects in the Eastern Continent, find a place that is not bad to start with the lowest-level disciples, slowly learn and cultivate, with their own talents, I think they will be able to make a name for themselves.

It's just that maybe he was unlucky, or his experience was too bad, and he was unladylike when he met people, after being rejected by the Great Wilderness Tower, he was gullible and was deceived into a small sect, which is simply a cult that cheats people out of money.

But fortunately, it didn't take long for him to be woken up one night when he was hungry and fell asleep from the pain of being beaten. When I asked, I found out that it was a disciple of Liuyun Hall who had learned the news and came to exterminate the cult.

At that moment, Yang Kun had a sense of comfort and excitement when the clouds opened to see the sun, and he bowed his head and made his mind clear. It's a pity that the elder who led the team grabbed his pulse and felt it for a while, then shook his head and sighed, his talent is too poor, rather than wasting time on cultivation, it is better to go back and live a down-to-earth life.

Thinking about those past events, more than twenty years have passed, and now I still have some regret when I recall it, so much so that when Yang Kun saw the familiar robe of the disciples of Liuyun Hall a few days ago, he was quite excited. It's just that the other party just came to ask for directions, and to ask him if there were other people from the Liuyun Hall who had come to him from the future.

In fact, he was not very sure in his heart, that night he was in a hurry, got up and squatted in the toilet for a quarter of an hour, and seemed to hear someone talking outside, vaguely prejudiced a few figures, and then think about it, the color of that costume is really the standard of the Liuyun Palace.

Those people from the Flowing Cloud Hall didn't ask any more questions, they all turned around and walked towards the depths of the mountain.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Kun couldn't help but tremble, and a slight chill appeared on his back. At the beginning, he felt that he had no face to go back to his hometown and be laughed at, and after being rescued by Liuyun Palace, he bumped everywhere, and accidentally found here, and happened to meet a young widow washing clothes by the river, and he didn't know what to do, and the two of them looked at each other. So, settle down.

Later, I heard from the old people in the village that it was impossible to go to the other side of the mountain, especially at night, where there was a sea that would seduce people's souls. When the wind sounds, an endless stream of ghost soldiers and generals will appear on the water, dragging away all those who see it, never to return.

Originally, he just regarded it as a joke, after all, in this kind of remote place, the so-called legends left by some old people are normal. Moreover, the mountain range behind Zhuyan Village is very steep, except for the birds, I am afraid that even the best spirit monkeys can not get by. Of course, those strong people who cultivate martial arts can do it.

At least, what Yang Kun saw was that the people of the Liuyun Hall were flying or jumping, and they easily passed through the mountains and mountains. Only, no one came back.

"My God, what is on the other side of the mountain, and those worldly masters in the Liuyun Hall can't deal with it?"

Fear struck him, he shook his head, and soon calmed down, having lived here all these years without encountering anything strange. Moreover, he himself did not have the ability to climb over the mountain, and what happened there had nothing to do with him.

"Liuyun Palace?hey, uncle, what you just said means that on the other side of the mountain, the people of Liuyun Hall have been there?"

A light voice sounded quietly, Yang Kun didn't think much about it, and replied casually: "Where have I just been, but I haven't come back......"

Suddenly, he felt that an inexplicable chill was enveloping his whole body, and Fang Cai's voice was obviously a young woman, but who was there in Zhuyan Village, he knew it in his heart.

In normal times, he might have thought that there was another visitor from the village. It's just that just now there was a little fear in my heart because of the things in front of me, and at this time, the voice suddenly sounded, and the gloomy feeling doubled.

"Ah, the ghost!"

With a scream, Yang Kun staggered a step and did not step steadily, leaned over and slammed into the ground.

However, the imaginary pain did not appear, and in his eyes he vaguely saw a pale yellow halo on the ground, and his fallen body actually stopped in mid-air, and then an invisible force pulled his shoulders back, and the whole person stood up again.

"Uncle, you're too timid, aren't you, so easy to be scared?"

The same light voice sounded again, but this time there was a little more playful laughter in the tone.

Looking back, Yang Kun was suddenly stunned in place, looking at the light and slim hands not far away, his eyes widened, and he didn't want to move away for a moment. For him, to describe how beautiful a woman is, the only words he can think of are as beautiful as a fairy, but no one knows how beautiful a fairy is.

But at this moment, he felt that he already had the answer in his heart.

Looking at Yang Kun who was almost drooling in front of him, Huo Xiaoxuan was speechless for a while, raised his foot and stomped on the ground, and the slight shock force was transmitted to the opponent's feet, and he trembled suddenly, so that he who had never fallen before finally fell.

"Ahem, uncle, can you answer my question now?"

The pain came from the buttocks that landed on the ground, and it was not until this moment that Yang Kun reacted, and he also realized his faux pas, and hurriedly replied: "That, that...... Well, yes, there were two groups of people in the Liuyun Palace, and there were quite a few people in the second wave, but after stepping through the Ghost Whisper Mountain Range, they never came back. That you ...... But what are you two girls doing asking about this?"

After glancing at the situation, he realized that not far behind Huo Xiaoxuan, there was a woman with the same pure appearance, although she was relatively petite, but she was the same beauty.

"It seems that my feelings are not wrong. The earth was weeping, and the pain that tormented them was even more intense. ”

Huo Xiaoxuan nodded lightly and raised his hand.

"Perhaps, soon we will have the answer. It's just that I don't know where Xiao Fengren is going around the bend at this time, and they are definitely not as fast as us!"

With a sweep, the wind fell softly beside her, and she snorted a little unhappily: "Okay, everyone is looking for their own, why do you have to pull me along?"

"If I hadn't noticed it, you would have been able to find this place now? Wouldn't it be safer to act together? Otherwise, if you lose it, Xiao Fengren will definitely be in a hurry. Huo Xiaoxuan grinned.

"I try to make excuses, and I don't say that I am actually afraid by myself. Muttering softly, the wind gently looked up at the somewhat strange mountains in the distance, and a trace of inexplicable chill could not help but emerge in his heart.

Vaguely, she felt as if she was seeing something in her eyes, as if it was a vague shadow. But when I focused on it, it disappeared again.

"That...... Are we really going to go on our own? instead of waiting for Brother Wind to arrive, or are we going to just inform them?"

Hearing this, Huo Xiaoxuan leaned into Feng Qingrou's ear and smiled cheaply: "It seems that you are scared." Otherwise, I'll go alone, and you'll find out where they are, and then bring them here. But maybe by that time, I'll settle the matter, and I'll win the previous bet for a month. ”

Suddenly, the wind softly exclaimed: "That's not good! Go, let's go together, who is afraid!"

Looking at the two girls sometimes fighting and sometimes nervous, Yang Kun was a little confused, but he still reminded kindly: "Dozens of people from Liuyun Hall have entered, and none of them have come back, and you two delicate girls want to ...... too."

"Don't look down on people, okay?"

Huo Xiaoxuan's eyes sank, and he raised his hand to the side and pointed to an ancient tree on the left side of the village entrance at the other end, which had died, but the branches were still upright.

"See that?"

When the words fell, she shook her fingers in the air. However, the smug look quickly solidified on the little face.

The dead tree was motionless.

"Poof!"

The wind couldn't help laughing softly, the figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, the figure was already two hundred meters away, and fell directly under the ancient tree, stretched out his hand, looked back at Yang Kun, and snorted: "How about it, do you still treat us as ordinary girls?"

However, all she saw was the look of horror in Yang Kun's eyes, and a trembling figure coming from the wind.

"No, no, if I'm not mistaken, that tree has been standing on the right side of the village for the past twenty years......."

Inexplicably stunned, the wind was gentle and didn't know what he was talking about. It's just that at this moment, she suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the dead bark that her little hands touched, and the roughness was like the body of some kind of demonic beast.

Moreover, a faintly warm breath blew on the back of her neck, and faintly, a slight gasp could be heard coming from behind......
