Chapter 498: The Threat of the Hidden Clan
As soon as he left the scope of the Sword Sect, the powerhouse of the Sword Sect left directly.
Although they also wanted to know if there were any hidden clans hiding near the Sword Sect, they didn't follow them for safety.
Because what Hu Wei said is indeed justified, once they send a few top powerhouses, if they really break into the evil cultivation headquarters at that time, they won't be able to run away if they want to.
Although the Sword Sect will immediately dispatch as a whole after the news comes out, there is also a possibility that the news cannot be delivered.
Hu Wei searched for maps of the area in his memory, and then confirmed the direction, and flew to the nearby place where the hermits might exist.
At the same time, he was also paying attention to whether there was a sea of flowers all over the mountains nearby, and if so, the possibility of evil cultivators existing here would also be greatly increased.
This area was selected by the Tianyin Clan, and it was also screened according to the conditions proposed by Hu Wei.
So Hu Wei quickly found a few places in the sea of flowers, but it was really far from what he had seen in the memories of evil cultivators.
Knowing that there might be no evil cultivators in this place, he searched a few areas again and left directly.
After leaving, Hu Wei found the nearest small city and used the teleportation array to go to a no-man's land on the edge of the area where the Sword Sect was located.
"At that time, the hidden clan behind the Sword Sect dispatched three pseudo-immortal weapons, whether their location was exposed and known by the evil cultivation forces is also unknown!"
With this in mind, Hu Wei began to search for possible traces in the vicinity.
However, new news soon came that the hermits in this area may have long since left.
For this reason, Hu Wei also specially summoned Tianyin to inquire about the hidden clan behind the Sword Sect.
In the end, he got three hermits, probably the hermits who cooperated with the Sword Sect before.
As for which one it was, the Tianyin clan didn't know much about it.
So Hu Wei abandoned his previous itinerary and went to the north of the Central Regions, near a desolate area in the Tianshan Mountains.
This is the location of the hidden clan that Tianyin Nu speculated that it might be related to the Sword Sect, and Hu Wei drove straight in, searched for a long time, and found a village.
The village is in a huge canyon, and all around the canyon are pink and white flowers.
After Hu Wei came here, he felt a strange aura.
"Could it be true that I guessed correctly?" Hu Wei frowned and walked into the village.
There was fertile land not far away, all of which were planted with spiritual grass, and Hu Wei understood that this should be the periphery of the Yin Clan.
There are some children nearby, playing around.
Hu Wei walked into the village, and even someone greeted him, and there was harmony.
"Little brother, face life. A middle-aged man walked over and smiled.
Hu Wei said: "I just passed by here, and I don't know what the name of this place is." ”
"It's called Flame Red Valley, and generally few outsiders come here. After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he sat on the stone pier on the side and asked: "I heard that there are many monks in the outside world, I don't know if it's true, we natives, really few people will choose to go out for a walk." ”
"The outside world is much crueler than here. Hu Wei shook his head, looked around, and found that although this place matched the sea of flowers, there was no other bloody aura.
Hu Wei was just about to fly into the sky to observe, when the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted: "Brother, don't fly, there is a formation in the sky, and it will suppress cultivation." ”
Hu Wei was stunned, when he flew over, he hadn't encountered it.
At the same time, he also became interested and continued to rise in height, wanting to see what kind of formation there was here, and he could come in at will, but if he wanted to go out, he would be restricted.
Soon Hu Wei sensed some pressure, and only then did he fly less than 100 meters high.
As he increased in height, so did the pressure, and at the same time his spiritual sense was suppressed.
Even if his spiritual sense was suppressed, he still found something, because the layout of this valley really didn't look like a natural formation.
It is completely transformed by the strong person the day after tomorrow, and this formation is no less than the Eastern Wilderness Great Array, reaching the existence of the pseudo-immortal level.
If the evil cultivator is hidden here, if he wants to break through the formation, he also needs many top forces to participate in it, and take out a corresponding number of pseudo-immortal weapons to suppress it.
Hu Wei didn't know what the core of this formation was, if it was just a pseudo-immortal weapon, the same as the core of the Eastern Wilderness Great Array, it would not be difficult to break through.
If something else is at the core, then the level of difficulty increases.
"The power of the hidden clan is really not to be underestimated. ”
Hu Wei sighed, and finally chose to fall to the ground, and then if he wanted to go out, he was afraid that he could only go out.
"I told you a long time ago, there is a formation here, why don't you listen to it. The middle-aged man said earnestly: "Sometimes, don't easily doubt the good intentions of others, and of course don't believe the bad words of others at will. ”
Although Hu Wei thought it was funny, he still hugged his fists and thanked him, and then walked deeper into the village.
It's like an ordinary village, and the people of the village are busy with their own business, talking and laughing past Hu Wei, and they will greet Hu Wei.
Hu Wei's spiritual sense was scattered, and he couldn't even feel that the other party's spiritual power fluctuated.
Even if there is a fluctuation of spiritual power, the cultivation is extremely low, and it is difficult to associate it with the evil cultivator.
Hu Wei followed the main road and finally reached the foot of the mountain.
Outside a courtyard at the foot of the mountain, an old man was lying on a deck chair, holding a feather fan.
Seeing Hu Wei coming over, the old man sat up with a smile and asked, "Is it from outside?"
"Yes, dare to ask Your Excellency?" asked Hu Wei.
"I'm just a bad old man. After the old man finished speaking, he lay on the chair and said with a smile: "Look at the mountain is not a mountain, look at the mountain is still a mountain, where did it come from, where to go back." ”
Hu Wei's spiritual sense swept over the old man, and he couldn't detect the fluctuation of spiritual power.
But Hu Wei knew that this old man might not be an ordinary person.
Hu Wei clenched his fists and asked, "Can the old man introduce the hidden cultivators?" Now that the evil cultivators are in trouble, the hidden clan can't do it if they want to be alone, and they will inevitably be ...... by the evil cultivators in the future."
The old man waved his hand and said, "Then you go forward, go to the front courtyard, wait, someone will always come." ”
Hu Wei thought about it, and finally decided to contact the hermit.
In some places he went to before, although he could find clues of the hermit, if the other party did not show up, it would be difficult for him to find the entrance of the hermit, so if he wanted to communicate with the hermit, he couldn't do it.
Now it seems that it is easier to get in touch with the hermits in this area.
Sitting on the stone pier outside the courtyard, Hu Wei closed his eyes and recuperated, while his spiritual sense was still scattered, wanting to investigate this place deeply.
But no matter how he perceived it, he still couldn't detect any trace of evil cultivation.
"I don't think it's this hermit ......" Hu Wei shook his head, stood up and prepared to leave.
But just then, a young man suddenly appeared in front of him.
"I think this is the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion?
Hu Wei got up and clenched his fists and said, "Your Excellency?"
"I am Yang Chenglong of the Immortal Hidden Clan, and it is reasonable that Your Excellency does not know about it, after all, we Hidden Clan generally do not walk outside. Yang Chenglong was full of arrogance and said with a smile: "But since the pavilion master is here today to my Xianyin clan, then please go to the Xianyin clan as a guest, and let us Xianyin clan do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord." ”
Hu Wei couldn't help but slander in his heart, what kind of immortal hermit, Tianyin clan, and Shenyin clan, all of them are so tall, I don't know if I really think I have seen a fairy.
Although he was slandered in his heart, Hu Wei couldn't show it, and he smiled: "It's bothering!"
Then Hu Wei followed Yang Chenglong and flew towards the sky.
Originally, Hu Wei was wondering why there was such a big difference between the formation here and the formation of the Eastern Wilderness.
When he saw Yang Chenglong flying towards the sky, he understood that this hermit was probably hidden in the space in the air.
And once the enemy attacks, or even can't rise into the air, it will be extremely difficult to reach the base camp of the Xianyin clan.
Following Yang Chenglong, Hu Wei didn't feel any pressure at this time.
Soon, in the sight of the two, a floating island appeared.
Looking from the outside of the floating island, the whole island is lined with palaces, and the fairy mist is shrouded, like a fairyland on earth.
There are also many rare beasts flying in the air, and those who don't know may really think that they have come to the residence of the immortals.
Coming to the floating island, Hu Wei followed Yang Chenglong on the road, looking around from time to time while probing whether there was any residual aura of evil cultivators in the air.
But to Huwey's disappointment, the atmosphere was business as usual.
"Looks like it's not here. Hu Wei shook his head, intending to take a look at the situation before looking for a chance to leave.
It didn't take long for Hu Wei to see several top powerhouses.
Among them, there was a top powerhouse whose aura overflowed, and it seemed that there was an urgent matter, and he flew directly away from the floating island.
"This is the Yao Palace of our Xianyin Clan, and it is also the place where the palace master lives, but the palace master is not here at the moment, so only I, an unpopular monk, come to entertain the pavilion master, but it is a little lazy. Yang Chenglong said with a smile.
Hu Wei hurriedly said: "Where is it, it is already an honor for me Hu to come to this Yao Palace." ”
Subsequently, under the introduction of Yang Chenglong, Hu Wei got to know several top powerhouses of the Xianyin clan, and also explored the tip of the iceberg of the strength of the Xianyin clan.
"It is worthy of being a hidden clan, this background is really strong, and there are actually a few people who seem to be young and have reached the level of a top powerhouse, even Yang Chenglong in front of him gives people a sense of danger. ”
Hu Wei thought so, and at the same time he was also exploring Yang Chenglong's realm.
It's a pity that Yang Chenglong is too good at reining in his own breath, and Hu Wei didn't see Yang Chenglong's realm for a while.
It seems that this Yao Palace has already prepared a meal, and Hu Wei followed Yang Chenglong to a living room in Yao Palace.
At this time, the table in the living room was already full of sumptuous delicacies, and after Yang Chenglong invited Hu Wei to take a seat, he asked, "I don't know what happened to the Lord of Hu Wei Pavilion coming to my hermit clan this time?"
Hu Wei said: "It's not a secret, there has been a reality of evil cultivation recently, which has made people panic, and I hope that the Xianyin clan can wish us a hand when I come this time." ”
"Oh, why can't so many top forces outside the evil cultivator?" Yang Chenglong asked disapprerovingly.
Hu Wei shook his head and said: "This time it's not a matter of a few evil cultivators, but an evil cultivator organization has come out, if it is not handled properly, it is likely to lead to the early arrival of the fault, and at some point, even if it is a hermit, it will be difficult to retreat." ”
"There is actually an evil cultivation force, it's really a bit terrifying, I just don't know how powerful this force is now?" Yang Chenglong asked.
Hu Wei said: "This force, according to my speculation, I am afraid that it has the strength of the same as the hermit, or even stronger than the hermit, and even the idea of fighting the hermit, so I hope that the nobles can take action, because the matter of evil cultivation is not the business of any force, but the major affairs of the human race." ”
Yang Chenglong picked up the wine glass filled by the maid and said with a smile: "You also know that the Yin clan has the means to carry through the fault, and the fault caused by man-made disasters is often incomparable to natural disasters. ”
Hu Wei said in a deep voice: "If it is really the evil cultivator who caused the fault to occur this time, then in the future, the entire continent will be controlled by the evil cultivator, and even if the hidden clan has been hidden, it will be found out one day." ”
Yang Chenglong nodded and said: "Since Hu Weige's words have been said to this point, then I will agree to act for the palace master, but ......."
Hu Wei asked, "Just what?"
"It's just that if we make a casual move, I'm afraid that the other hidden clans will target us...... If there are not enough benefits, I don't think the palace master will consider making a move, after all, there are so many hidden clans, why choose us, huh?"
Yang Chenglong shook his head and continued: "It's one thing to make a move, but whether you can ensure your safety is another matter. ”
Hu Wei said: "Your Excellency should be worried about other hermitages, and this continental alliance was proposed by the Tianyin clan, I think if other hermits take action against their allies, whether it is the Tianyin clan or the major top forces, they will not sit idly by." ”
Yang Chenglong shook his head, took a sip of wine, and said: "I've heard that the pavilion master has a hand in refining divine weapons, if he can refine a few weapons for my Xianyin clan, I don't think the palace master will refuse." ”
Only then did Hu Wei understand what Yang Chenglong meant, to put it bluntly, he wanted to trap Hu Wei.
Although Hu Wei has this ability, he is not wronged, after all, he represents the entire alliance at this time, and if the Yin clan is willing to make a move, the alliance also needs to pay the price, not he, Hu Wei alone.
Hu Wei pondered and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then don't bother, there are still some urgent matters to deal with below." ”
Although there are Yin clans to make a move, the strength of their alliance will increase, but the increase is not high.
Not to mention that the other party still wants to take advantage of his own side, even if the powerhouses of other top forces come here at this time, I am afraid they will not consider such an unreasonable request.
The evil cultivator itself is a public enemy, and the other party is willing to do it only after knowing that he plans to charge a fee, Hu Wei feels that there is nothing to say.
One less hermit clan strength doesn't have much loss to the alliance, anyway, there was nothing to do with the immortal hermit clan before, and it doesn't matter if there is no one after that.
Yang Chenglong hurriedly grabbed Hu Wei and said: "The person who came is a guest, this meal hasn't been touched yet, the pavilion master just left, what do others think of our Xianyin clan?"
"The Dao is not the same, this evil cultivator is the common enemy of all the monks in the entire continent, and now the Xianyin Clan still wants to reap the benefits, I'm afraid that this matter will spread out, and there is still no force optimistic about the Xianyin Clan!" Hu Wei said lightly.
But this time he didn't rush to leave, maybe there was a turnaround.
"In fact, our Xianyin clan also has its own difficulties, after all, the fault is approaching, and visions have begun to appear, if you don't rush to accumulate the foundation, you may not be able to cross the fault. Yang Chenglong shook his head and continued: "And if you can't cross the fault, maybe the evil cultivator grows up and can play a certain buffer role." ”
Hu Wei said in a deep voice: "This buffering effect, I'm afraid it's all piled up with bones!"
Yang Chenglong shook his head and said disdainfully: "Which fault didn't the hermit clan crawl out of the sea of corpses and blood?"
Hu Wei frowned, this is true, if a fault occurs, basically all life in the world will be overturned, and only a few forces will survive, which is equivalent to crawling out of the sea of corpses and blood.
And the appearance of evil cultivation may destroy many forces, but if the evil cultivation force is strong enough to collide with the dark creatures that entered the world at the time of the fault, it may be the only chance for other forces of the human race to cross the fault.
"Is there really only one way to go?" Hu Wei sighed in his heart at this time, maybe he could really only give up everyone and take care of the small family.
But in this way, the Holy Land will inevitably be affected, and the strongest forces that are on the edge of the sinkhole at some point will inevitably become the front line.
By that time, will the Holy Land still survive?
Even Hu Wei felt that it was impossible, after all, the strength of the dark creatures was terrifying even for Zhang Xuance.
Hu Wei already had a certain understanding of dark creatures at this time, ordinary dark creatures may be similar to ordinary monks, but they also have a very terrifying existence.
Even in the perfect realm, you can meet opponents in dark creatures.
Therefore, if the dark creatures who entered this world at the beginning were generally weak, and there were evil cultivators to take the lead, other forces would indeed have a chance.
But the question is, how could the evil cultivator come out and resist the attack in the face of such a powerful opponent?
I'm afraid that they can't wait for the monks of the entire continent to resist, and they can fish in troubled waters to improve their cultivation, and at some point, maybe there are really evil cultivators who have transcended from this world.
Now the fault line has not yet arrived, and it is full of uncertainty.
Dark creatures are now unable to enter this world, and their strength is limited, and the rules of heaven and earth reject them.
It may be that the realm of these dark creatures is not higher than that of the human race, but if there are really powerful dark creatures descending, this realm may be directly erased.
"Can't be deduced!" Hu Wei shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, because it was a dead knot.
If you want to untie this dead knot, that is, your own strength can reach the level of suppressing everything, otherwise everything is just on paper.
Yang Chenglong saw that Hu Wei was still thinking about it, so he continued: "Therefore, the growth of evil cultivators may be beneficial to our Yin Clan. As for the Tianyin Clan, they are going to go out on their own, and they will have to bear the corresponding price. ”
Hu Wei sighed, maybe the hermit he said before can't be left alone, I'm afraid it will only make the hermit laugh.
The Hidden may be happy to see this situation arise, and even intervene if necessary, so that the current situation will be more beneficial to them.
In this way, it may be possible to drag it until the fault comes, let the evil cultivators and the dark creatures fight, and the hidden clan will reap the benefits of the fisherman.
"Then what are you Immortal Hidden Clan going to do?" Hu Wei asked.
Yang Chenglong stared at Hu Wei's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Naturally, we will not make rash moves, we will only carry out some simple guidance, and even when necessary, all the hidden clans may turn into evil cultivators!"
