The mountain behind the secret house of Tian Kuan Jiuxia is called Nuyao Mountain, the reason why the name of this mountain is so strange, there is a doorway, according to legend, in ancient times, this town had a group of demons for the disaster, and the residents living in this land were devastated.

One day, the mysterious Onmyoji who traveled in the country of R appeared, relying on powerful mana, to seal the monster here, the Onmyoji consumed a lot, and after successfully sealing the monster, he also died in this mountain.

In later generations, strange things often happened to this mountain, but it was only spread to the mouths of individual residents, and it did not cause much disaster, and over time, in modern times, people gradually left the legend of the mountain behind, built houses outside the mountain, and even built a new forest park.

In fact, when the forest park was first built, workers often disappeared mysteriously, but the developer forcibly suppressed the matter for its own benefit, and there was not much circulation outside.

In addition to the legend about this mountain, it is also worth mentioning that the geographical location of Nüyao Mountain is very special, and the mountain range connected to Nüyao Mountain is the Oman Mountain that Cao Xuan and they are planning to explore.

Before his death, the Onmyoji said that if you want to keep a peaceful party and seal the demons in the mountain, you must build a large number of monk temples, and with the help of the great power of people's prayers, you can suppress the evil things in Nuyao Mountain for generations, so that you can be peaceful forever.

After the deposition of time, Mount Oman because of the monk's temple, gradually declared far away, but the Nüyao Mountain was selectively forgotten by people, as everyone knows, the ancients are in order to seal the Nüyao Mountain, so that the monk temple of the Oman Mountain has become a place for people to worship.

Cao Xuan and Wang Erzhuang had been walking around the mountains for more than an hour, and the sky above him was blocked by dense branches and leaves, and very little sunlight could fall from overhead.

They have gone deep into the hinterland of Nuyao Mountain, and after searching for so long, they still haven't seen any doorway.

Cao Xuan took out the map and looked at it again, shaking his head slightly unconsciously.

"Although this map shows the general direction of the two points, there are too many discrepancies with the actual existence, and even if a person has a good sense of direction, he will not be able to accurately reach the recorded location."

It's no wonder that Cao Xuan is worried at the moment, on this simple map, there is no distance direction at all, only connected by a thin black line above, Cao Xuan can follow here, he already has excellent associative power, and his memory is outstanding.

Coming to a tree trunk, Cao Xuan stretched out his hand to touch it.

Where there are mountains, there are greenery, and the hidden communication skills of the natural controller are a very useful skill, after all, there is nothing more familiar with everything in the mountains than native plants.

Cao Xuan closed his eyes and carefully felt the hints given by nature.

Wang Erzhuang stared at Cao Xuan's actions with puzzled eyes, thinking that the other party had discovered something, so he stepped forward and asked, "Gao Caisheng, why are you touching this tree trunk?" I didn't understand the difference between this tree and I walked around for a long time. ”

After a while, Cao Xuan withdrew his hand and glanced at Wang Erzhuang, "Trees can sometimes tell me things that ordinary people can't find, do you believe me when I say that?" ”

Wang Erzhuang laughed twice, the expression on his face was obviously unbelieving, "What time is it, don't make fun of me, tell me where we should go next." ”

Cao Xuan asked rhetorically: "Or..., Uncle Erzhuang!" What do you call a location? Now I can't help it, it's the same to go there, it's better to try your luck. ”

Wang Erzhuang scratched his head and pointed casually

Direction said: Let's go that way and try?

Cao Xuan nodded a little unexpectedly: "Second Zhuang, it's rare that you can come up with an idea, just walk in the direction you said." ”

The two of them walked deep one after the other, Cao Xuan in front and Wang Erzhuang in the back, the current situation is a little delicate, no one spoke, except for the sound of stepping on the green leaves, there was no sound.

Not long after, there was really a difference in front of Cao Xuan's eyes, the surrounding environment was very different from the place where he came, all the plants and trees were yellow, as if they had been forcibly drained of their breath of life.

"Uncle Erzhuang, it seems that your luck is really good, you really pointed at it indiscriminately, this place is very close to the location of the sign on the map."

Praised by Cao Xuan, Wang Erzhuang touched his head with a smile, "Good luck!" Haha, I didn't expect that either. ”

The smell of corrosion became more and more intense as the footsteps approached, the green plants nearby turned from withered yellow to deep black, the surface of the trunk became dry, and a large area of bark began to fall off, and the strangeness in front of him made Cao Xuan's eyes gradually solemn.

The evil force is constantly extracting all the life force in the vicinity, just walking into the forest, I can still see the shadows of some birds and beasts from time to time, but now, I can't even hear the sound, this place seems to turn into an absolute death realm, devouring and plundering all the life that steps here.

"Uncle Erzhuang, are you afraid?" Cao Xuan suddenly turned around and asked.

"I'm afraid, why don't you be afraid! High-achieving students, otherwise... Shall we go back? Wang Erzhuang asked tentatively.

"I've already found this place, wouldn't it be a pity to go back now? What's more, I've already found here, I guess I want to go back, but I can't go back, and someone doesn't want me to go back. ”

Showing the Tang Dao, Cao Xuan accelerated violently, his figure was empty, and he went straight to the center of this death realm at an extremely fast speed, "Just let me see what the evil has for leading me here." ”

The black mist visible to the naked eye gradually took shape in the air, and in the process of Cao Xuan's rapid progress, it turned into a sharp blade and went straight to the front door.

"Can these things stop me?" Cao Xuan flashed slightly, and the Tang knife was at a loss, smashing the black blade that rushed in.

"Uncle Erzhuang, be careful, the road ahead is not easy to walk." Cao Xuan admonished.

"High-level students, you go first, don't worry about me, these things can't stop me, it's important to save people first." Wang Erzhuang shouted from behind.

Seeing that Wang Erzhuang was fine, Cao Xuan put away his thoughts and concentrated on dealing with the black blade in front of him.

Wisps of black gas continued to drift between heaven and earth, and Cao Xuan was in the black whirlpool at the moment, his complexion did not change, and he calmly dodged in the gaps.

The Tang Dao rose and fell, sweeping away a large area of black mist blades, Cao Xuan took advantage of the situation to hurriedly get out and quickly rushed forward.

The pieces of black mist blades seemed to lock Cao Xuan, following behind him, no matter how much Cao Xuan's speed was raised, he could never shake off the swarming black mang.

Looking at the fog re-emerging in front of him, Cao Xuan said: "There are more and more of them, and if you want to rush over unharmed, some idiots are dreaming, you need to clean up a wave first, just to test the results of my exercise these days." ”

Standing in place, Cao Xuan stopped running, raised the Tang knife horizontally, and opened all his six senses, "There is only the tempering between life and death."

, in order to make people progress, and the exercise of the elastic ball, after all, is not as good as the sense of oppression brought by death. ”

If ordinary people knew Cao Xuan's thoughts at the moment, they were afraid that they would call the other party crazy, ordinary students were trying their best to think about how to save their lives in the mission world, but Cao Xuan was taking on the oppression between life and death, and broke through himself faster.

The black mist wind blade paused in the air, and at the same time, it fell like a storm, Cao Xuan gave up a large movement, and only relied on the micro-control of his body, dodging the attack with small movements, dancing the Tang knife into a bright light, constantly colliding and splitting the black fog blade.

With the long-term maintenance of the mental height, sweat flowed from Cao Xuan's forehead, although the fatigue affected the spirit, but the body was still running rapidly, after all, as long as there was a little mistake, what was waiting for Cao Xuan was to fall into hell.

Tang Dao's smooth attack, his body's keen reflexes, and in the middle of the dance, Cao Xuan smashed the last piece of black mist blade that attacked.

Taking a breath and standing the Tang knife on the ground, Cao Xuan stabilized his mind and looked at the empty forest, "It's clean now." ”

After all the obstacles were wiped out by Cao Xuan, Wang Erzhuang's burly figure walked slowly from behind, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, and he came to Cao Xuan's back and said in disbelief: You did this?

"Or else? Do you want to see me chopped up by these things? Cao Xuan said with a teasing smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I just can't believe it, is there really such a big gap between our strengths? Just now, I had a hard time dealing with a few black mist attacks, but I didn't expect that you would be able to clear them all by yourself. Wang Erzhuang hurriedly explained.

"Every strength is earned by hard work, let's go! The front should be the source of this trip. ”

In the depths of Nuyao Mountain, the original animals and plants formed a green sea that covers the sky and the sun, due to the corrosion of evil things, whether it is fallen leaves or grass roots, has transformed into a thick dark black, inky environment makes people feel frightened.

In front of Cao Xuan's eyes, a huge stone tablet appeared, the surface of the stone tablet was covered with dense cracks, and the surface seemed to be engraved with the R national script, but because the cracks were too serious, it was no longer clear to see.

The two walked backwards for a while, and there was no resurgence of the black fog until a deep pit appeared in front of Cao Xuan.

The black fog in the center of the pit circulated, but it did not break through, but only lurked in the pit, rotating and circling.

Large pieces of broken bones were piled up in a circle around the pit, and there were some rotted and blackened dead bodies.

Looking at the black mist produced on the corpses, which continued to flow into the pit, Cao Xuan said: "This pit is the location of the skeleton marked on the map, and the nearby corpses produce black gas, as if using the soul as fuel, and it is constantly filling the pit with energy. ”

"There may be something terrifying in the pit, the leaking breath has an extremely strong corrosive power, once it is released, it is hard to imagine how terrible the strength will be."

Wang Erzhuang was behind Cao Xuan, and when he heard this, his eyes turned, "We have all arrived at the place, why haven't we seen the shadow of the little girl and Hui Lizi yet?" Speaking of this, Wang Erzhuang's eyes looked at the pile of broken corpses in disbelief, and said in a frightened and suspicious tone: "Gao Xiangsheng, you said that the little girl wouldn't..." ”

Cao Xuan glanced back at Wang Erzhuang, didn't say anything, and slowly walked not far from the deep pit, his eyes were deep, as if he was secretly thinking about something.
