Chapter 63: The Valley of the Depths
Taiyou Valley is located 500 miles northwest of the Aoba Mountains. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This is the junction of Daozhou and Florida, because the mountains are vertical and horizontal, and there are few people, but there are often wild beasts here.
It is said that in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought a war between the human and demon clans that lasted for thousands of years, and the war once affected here. After that war, some of the original sects and cities in this place were destroyed, and some sects fled here before the war, leaving behind some abandoned sect resources in ancient times.
For thousands of years, it has attracted some explorers from time to time. Constantly discovering some natural treasures, and even obtaining some sect inheritances, so that some unknown people became powerful overnight, and after these news spread, it attracted more explorers to enter. However, with the deepening of exploration, after thousands of years of exploration, some of the original natural treasures have basically been excavated, and the people who come to explore here are gradually rare, and over time they have begun to become less and less interested.
More than 100 years ago, Aoba Temple and several surrounding sects accidentally discovered a broken seal located in a valley, and after several joint investigations, it was confirmed that this place was an abandoned old sect land. However, because of the seal, the spiritual herb elixir that had been kept inside for many years continued to come out, and it became a resource that several major sects competed for. In addition, this place is located at the junction of Florida and Daozhou, and after some discussion, several major sects finally retained this place, and jointly strengthened the seal as a place for the disciples of each sect to test.
Because the seal here has been inherited from ancient times, the internal space is huge, and now several major sects have opened many trials before and after, although they have obtained a lot of spiritual herbs and elixirs, but so far no one has obtained the inheritance of the sect left behind.
When Ye Cang and his party arrived at Taiyou Valley by flying boat, it was already half a day later.
Looking down from the air, there are tall rolling mountains below, and the giant trees rising from the ground are much taller than the green leaves of the Aoba Temple. From time to time, there were one or two beast roars in the forest, which made the jungle feel vast.
"Here we are. ”
On the flying boat, a Sangdao man looked at the mountains under his feet and said softly. Then the magic trick in his hand changed, and the flying boat slowly landed in a valley. I saw that what appeared in front of a few people was a verdant bamboo forest, stretching throughout the valley, but there was no entrance or seal to any sect at all.
At this time, there were already two teams waiting in front of the valley.
On a boulder on the left side of the valley is a team of five people dressed in black clothes with a small white hammer embroidered on their chests. Among them, Xuan Ming's figure was impressively among them, but the other four were seen for the first time.
In an open space in front of the Xuantieguan team, a rugged man was talking softly with an old monk. At this time, seeing the white flying boat falling in the air, the rugged man turned his head, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and then a slight cold snort came out of his mouth, this person was the head of Shi Fei of Xuantieguan.
"Yisang Daoyou, you are a little late this time. Next to the head of Yisang, an old monk with nine ring scars on the top of his head and half black and half hundred eyebrows turned his head to look at Bai Yu Feizhou at this time, and said with a smile, his voice was thick, and there was an indescribable sense of time.
"Master Qingyin came as early as ever. A Sang Dao man waved the dust and said respectfully to the old monk.
"Hey, the disciples who participated in the trial in the Aoba Temple this time seem to be quite good, and it seems that Yisang Daoyou is extremely confident in this valley trial. Master Qingyin's gaze jumped over the head of Yisang, glanced at the Ye Cang people who got up, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and said with a smile. At the same time, he glanced at Shi Fei's head with a slightly playful look.
Just now, when Master Qingyin's gaze swept over, Ye Cang felt like he had been seen through, just a glance, the sense of coercion that this bald old monk gave him was far above the head of Yisang.
At this moment, a loud chirp came from the air in the distance, and I saw a cyan giant bird flying in the air in the distance, with a wingspan of five or six meters wide, and a few wings inciting, and it had already come to the sky above the valley.
"It's the plain girl who has seen it!" said Yisang Daoist softly.
"It turned out to be Qingxue Luanniao, a pure Taoist friend, I have been waiting here for a long time. Master Qingyin also looked up at the air at this time, and said loudly.
"A few Taoist friends came early, and the poor nuns are polite here. A pleasant voice came from the air, and then a white cloud carried six slender figures from the sky and appeared in front of everyone.
The first person was a beautiful Taoist girl wearing a white Taoist hat and holding floating dust in her hand, in her thirties, with fair skin, and a red cinnabar in the middle of her forehead. Behind the beautiful Dao Gu were five young girls, all tall and tall, wearing white Taoist robes and a white scarf covering their faces. Ye Cang looked intently and found that the chests and corners of several human robes were embroidered with a dark cyan jade.
"Hmm?! Lishan Nunnery and Shinboji Temple arrived at the same time. At this time, Master Qingyin raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at the air in the distance, and said softly.
A moment later, Yisang Dao Chief, Shi Fei Zhang, and Su Jing Shitai also looked up at the air in the distance. After a few breaths, two clouds of light and shadow appeared in the air to the west of the valley, flying quickly towards the direction of the valley.
After a while, two groups of light and shadow came to the sky above the valley successively, showing the internal situation, one of the lights and shadows is a huge flying carpet, gently suspended in the air, quite an aura, on the flying carpet, is a few bald monks, it is the people and horses of Xinfang Temple. In another light cluster, there was a white jade flying sword, the sword body was extremely wide, and several women were sitting on it.
Two white clouds slowly floated down from the sky and landed in the valley. Only then did everyone see that one of the teams was led by a middle-aged monk, with eight ring scars on the top of his head, huge earlobes, a string of Buddhist beads around his neck, and a rather happy face. Behind him were five tall young monks, dressed in gray monk's robes, each holding a long stick more than a meter long.
The other group of people was led by an elderly man in his fifties and sixties wearing a gray hat, followed by five quite delicate girls, but several girls had hair on the top of their heads, wearing light blue monk's robes, holding a blue long sword, and they were the people and horses of Lishan Nunnery.
"Master Ling'an, Master Fangjian, you have finally arrived. Master Qingyin took two steps forward and greeted him, as if he was quite familiar with the two of them.
"Master of clean sound. Master Ling'an and Master Fang Jian also stepped forward and greeted Master Qingyin.
Yisang Dao people, Su Jing Dao people, and Shi Fei leaders also greeted them, and the other three sect heads met and saluted one by one. The Valley Trial is held once every ten years, and usually the heads of the various sects do not have too many opportunities to meet each other, so this meeting is naturally inevitably polite.
"It's almost time, guys, let's get started. After a while, Master Qingyin of Tianyuan Temple looked at the scorching sun in the sky, and said softly, as he spoke, his hand flashed, and a cyan token appeared at some point.
When the other five sect leaders heard this, they also waved their hands, and a cyan token flashed in their hands. I saw six people pointing a little token, silently reciting a spell in their mouths, and strange runes gradually condensed on the token, slowly flying towards the void of the mountains and forests in front of them. Strange to say, all the runes flew into the void in front of them less than ten meters away, and disappeared one after another, as if they had never appeared.
And as there were more and more runes, the scenery in front of them slowly changed, and in the void of the originally green mountains and forests, ripples rippled layer by layer, and as the runes continued to fly in, a light-shaped gate phantom appeared in front of everyone.
After about a cup of tea, the six masters stopped the magic trick in their hands one after another, and the original green bamboo forest in front of them completely disappeared, replaced by a condensed light door, but the space behind the door was blocked by a hazy mist, and it was not real.
"The seal has been opened, everyone, please. Seeing that the seal had been opened, Master Qingyin accepted the cyan token in his hand and said to everyone with a smile.
Hearing this, the other sect leaders turned to look at the disciples behind them, and after a little advice, Master Fang Jian of Xinfang Temple spoke, "Since you are modest, I, Xinfang Temple, will take the first step." ”
After saying that, the five disciples behind him stepped forward and prepared to walk towards the Light Gate.
However, at this moment, a sharp sound of breaking the air came from a distance, the sound came from far and near, and it came to the top of the Taiyou Valley in a few hours, and at the same time, a slightly feminine voice came.
"Haha, it's better to come early than to come by chance, fellow Daoists, this time in the valley trial, I will also come to join in the fun. ”
