Nine secluded, Shaoyin Mountain Range.

The wind howled, and the rocks were covered with a layer of ice, which looked black and slippery, like the entrails of some kind of monster frozen.

The surroundings were pitch black, with occasional green ghost fires rising from the cracks in the mountains, and blood-colored thunder flashed in the sky from time to time, and the red and green shimmers were intertwined, making it look strange.

In a mountain col, suddenly the wind blows.

The frost-condensed ground seemed to have melted into a lake-like shape, and as the ripples spread, two figures flew out.

The two of them are gloomy, with an ancient ghost face under the hood of a wide black robe, which is obviously a good magic weapon.

The other is a wolf demon, under the cloak is a close-fitting leather armor, and the fine runes swim on the surface of the leather armor like living creatures, which is extremely weird.

Although this ghost and demon had already hidden Qi's breath, as soon as it appeared, the valley Lingqi became docile, and it was obviously a true immortal cultivator.

The ghost fairy stretched out his hand and waved, and a map appeared in his palm, he glanced at it, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, this is the place, this business is not easy to do, Jiuyou is about to be in chaos, save people and leave immediately!" ”

As he spoke, the two of them had disappeared.

They were extremely fast, and they were obviously good at stealth and concealment, circling along the mountain range, and the Nine Ghost Kingdom monks patrolling in the air were unaware.

The two of them didn't seem to bother to pay attention to the army of the Nine Ghost Realms that were all over the mountains, and directly bypassed and got into a mountain crevice.

There is a cave in the depths of the mountain crevice, which is the formation laid by Li Yuanzeng.

The wolf demon sniffed in the air, bared his fangs and smiled: "This is the place, I didn't expect that the legendary Nine Shadows Passage, which had already collapsed, would still be left behind. It is rumored that there are countless treasures in Hades, if so..."

"Don't even think about it!"

The ghost fairy sneered: "The news has been found above, two old monsters of the Nine Shadows, a plague Heavenly King, not to mention those strange existences on the second layer of the Nine Shadows, without the protection of the army, if you go in, you will be sent to death." ”

"Although the treasure is good, it must be killed, save people first."

With that, he stretched out his hand and wiped it on his waist, and a small strange compass appeared in his hand, rising with spiritual light.

Kaka Ka ......

The compass kept turning, and the formation that originally required Li Yuan's token to activate actually ran slowly with the traction of the compass.

Streams of earth qi spiritual light surged from all directions, and with the roar of the formation, the two of them disappeared in an instant.

When I opened my eyes again, it was that dark space.

The ruins of the broken bridge spiraled downward, and even with their eyesight, they could only see a dark darkness.

"What about people?"

Although he was surprised by the sight, the ghost fairy's eyes were sharp, and his voice was full of anger, "Didn't you say that you would wait here, people?" Could it be that he is dead......"

The wolf demon on the side did not speak, but stretched out his hand, and a beast skin bag appeared in his palm, dark yellow in color, and the surface was covered with talismans.

He untied his pocket, grabbed a handful of crystal clear sand, muttered a mantra in his mouth, puffed out his cheeks, and blew reluctantly.

Call~

The crystal sand roared out, jumping up and down in the air, and it was very agile, gathering along some kind of wonderful trajectory, outlining two figures.

It was Li Qianqiu and Yan Guhong.

And needless to say, this ghost and demon are the people who were entrusted by Wang Xuan to be rescued by the Treasure Pavilion and sent by Jiuyou.

When they saw the sand showing a human figure, they were not excited, but concentrated and watched carefully.

I saw two figures sitting cross-legged at first, and then their bodies shook violently and slowly got up, as if they had been summoned by some kind of summons, and walked forward as stiffly as puppets.

"Keep up, be careful!"

The ghost fairy raised his vigilance and followed.

The wolf demon also grabbed a handful of sand again and continued to cast spells.

I saw that the shadows of Li Qianqiu and the others seemed to retain their instincts, and every time they passed the broken stone bridge, they would always cross stiffly, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

After descending a hundred feet, the wolf demon stopped casting spells, looked at the empty leather pocket, and said helplessly: "Shadow Chensha is gone, this time it is a big loss, I must talk to the elder when I go back..."

He kept chattering with a distressed face, but the ghost fairy next to him didn't care, but his face was solemn, staring down, "Did you hear any sound..."

The wolf demon was slightly stunned, and his ears trembled rapidly.

Sure enough, the sound of a flute spread from the darkness and depths below.

The voice became louder and louder, like weeping and complaining, and with a certain ethereal meaning, making people drowsy, and only feeling that the world was extremely boring......

"Wake up!"

The ghost fairy pulled the wolf demon into the air, and returned to the starting broken bridge with a dodge, staring down with both eyes.

The wolf demon also woke up, first sweating on his forehead, and then he didn't know what he thought, looking down, his eyes full of disbelief.

"It's... Soul Hook Bird?! ”

………

"Soul Hooker?"

In the Star Dou Divine Tree Illusion, Wang Xuan frowned slightly, "What is that?" ”

He was lacking in skills, so he asked the Treasure Pavilion to come to the rescue, thinking that it was foolproof, who would have thought that such a thing would happen.

On the other side, the three-eyed Taoist Zhong Buquan said in a deep voice: "The soul hook bird is an ancient divine beast, and all the creatures in the Three Realms have souls. ”

Wang Xuantong shrank his hole, "This thing eats souls? ”

"Definitely."

Zhong Buquan shook his head and said: "Heaven and earth have their own order, and there are many soul-eating creatures, but only the soul-hooking bird will not." ”

"Because, it is the Nine Shadows Innate Great God Messenger!"

As he spoke, he looked at the dense fog in the sky, "The Three Realms have the Innate God to maintain the operation of the Great Dao, the Sun Emperor has the Golden Crow under his command, the Xuanniao has long accompanied the Taiyin Emperor, and the Nine Walls Star Monarch also has Kunpeng to help run the stars." ”

"There are naturally innate gods among the Nine Shadows, but the ancient heavenly court classics are damaged, and no one knows the name of this great god, only that the soul hook bird is its messenger."

"When the Emperor of the Seven Evils of the Northern Yin built the Hades Mansion, it was not a matter of imagination, and those broken bridges and passages in the Nine Shadows also existed in ancient times... The soul hook bird appears, and I am afraid that something big will happen in the Nine Shadows! ”

Wang Xuan was thoughtful, and suddenly remembered the words of Baoguang Daoist.

In that year, the Seven Evil Northern Yin Emperors were killed, and the father of the Gouyuan Heavenly King was killed in battle, and the remaining two Heavenly Venerables insisted on closing the Nine Secluded Passages, which is estimated to be quite strange.

Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly and said: "There is Lao Daoyou, even if it is so, forget it, and think of another way in the future." ”

Zhong Buquan arched his hand and left.

Before leaving, he suddenly turned around and said, "My king Daoyou is very righteous, but the soul hook bird is here, and this matter is no longer for me to mix." ”

Wang Xuan nodded, noncommittal.

To save people is to be saved, and to go there in person.

One is to save people, and the other is to see the nine gods.

The last time he retreated and cultivated, just a trace of the Sun Emperor's afterimage Dao rhyme made him progress by leaps and bounds, so observing and directly looking at the innate gods transformed by these laws and Dao essences has become a set goal.

Among them, the Taiyin Sun Emperor is in the Chaotic Void, unless he has a treasure ship like the Baoguang Dao people, and he knows the specific location, and it is possible to see it after spending thousands of years in the void.

And the Nine Walls Star Monarch first has to enter the Nine Heavens, and then reach the extreme of the Northern Xuantian Heaven, and they are also waiting in the void to observe, and they don't know when they will arrive.

Therefore, this unknown Nine Shadows Great God is the most recent one.

At this time, this trip is extremely dangerous, and it needs to be considered in the long run.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan shook his head and withdrew from the Divine Tree Illusion Realm.

When I opened my eyes again, the noise outside the window immediately came into the attic.

Wang Xuan got up and pushed the door out, the rainforest was flourishing in front of him, the mist was rising, and the dust and smoke were rising in a huge pit in the distance, and the machine tower rumbled...

It is the treasure cave of southern Xinjiang.

"Meet your lord!"

Sima Wei had already led several adjutant generals of the Sky Survey Army to wait outside.

Wang Xuan's cloak shook, and he said with a solemn face: "Take me there!" ”

As soon as he saw off the old dragon king Gamoro in Longshou Mountain, he sent a message in southern Xinjiang and found a strange mausoleum, which was suspected to be the remains of the emperor's period.

Now that it is an eventful season, any mistake will affect the next plan, just in case, Wang Xuan had to rush to check it in person.

A few people broke through the air, and the speed was so fast that they were already under the huge pit in a breath.

I saw that there were large and small grottoes all around, and they were honeycomb-shaped at a rough look, but if you look closely, you will find that these grottoes form the most primitive Bagua diagram.

Many of them have been emptied, and there seem to be grottoes buried in the soil below, and tens of thousands of sergeants have carefully removed the huge stone boxes, and then transported them to the ground by the machine tower and loaded them into the floating ships of the Sky Survey Army...

Only the central area, which is empty within a few hundred meters.

"Dashuai, please..."

Sima Wei led the way in front and quickly explained: "There is something strange there, my subordinates have sent two groups of people in, but none of them have come out, and no matter what kind of secret method cannot be explored." ”

Wang Xuan was silent and walked to the side to check.

I saw a hole in the ground, several feet in diameter, and bottomless.

The sun was shining, but there was a surging mist coming out, and the originally soft sand at the entrance of the cave had been condensed by hoarfrost.

Wang Xuan took a step forward, ran the candle dragon eye, his eyes were full of golden light, and the scene in the pit suddenly appeared in front of him:

There are a lot of broken stones from the ground, and although the patterns on them have been molded into the lake, you can also see that it is a huge stone gate.

Judging from the surrounding traces, it was shattered from the inside out by a force.

This stone gate is one zhang thick, plus the earth and stone several hundred meters thick above, you can imagine the scene at that time.

Looking down further, Wang Xuan frowned.

There seemed to be nothing under the stone gate, and there was no mechanism formation, but the strange thing in it couldn't hide his candle dragon eye.

The ground below is abundant, and what is even more strange is stagnant.

You must know that the earth qi is gloomy, but it lives on movement, just like the dragon vein earth under the middle earth, the earth qi is surging and rushing, converging into large and small tributaries, so as to drive the water qi and nourish all things.

But the scene in front of him reminded him of one thing: the Demon Sealing Cave.

The sealing technique is also to solidify the earth qi and turn into amber-like crystals, making the monster isolated from heaven and earth, unable to get out of trouble.

Could it be that some ancient demon is sealed below?

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan became more and more cautious.

"Stay here, I'll investigate."

After that, he took out the Three Qi Six Instrument Plate and jumped down.

The distance of 100 zhang is coming in an instant, Wang Xuan waved his big sleeves, and the imperial qi was suspended in the air, only three feet away from the stone gate, and he checked the three odds and six instruments.

Whoa...

What is surprising is that as soon as the Sanqi Liuyi Disc approached, there was a reaction, all the compasses rotated in different directions and at different speeds, and the surging golden light also rose and fell, revealing the location of the birth gate.

There is even a formation in it?

Wang Xuan frowned, he didn't notice it at all, which showed that this array was extremely clever, far from what he could understand now.

Fortunately, if you enter along the birth gate, you should not be touched.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan checked the Three Qi Six Instrument Disc while going around to the top of the pit and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

As soon as you enter the cave, the surrounding scene changes dramatically.

It was originally an underground hollow, but now it seems to be in a dark space, and there is no landing.

It's a bit like the Nine Secluded Passages, but there is no stone bridge to pass through.

Wang Xuan's eyes were full of golden light, vigilantly observing the surroundings, not only took out the strongest extermination spear at present, but also ran the "Mixed Yuan Star Sutra", and the surrounding basin-sized evil stars slowly rotated.

As soon as he entered this place, he was alarmed by a great victory in his heart.

This is a feeling that has never been felt before, even when facing the mutated gluttonous heavenly demon, it is not so strong.

It was a creepy and vicious resentment, coming from far and wide, yet hidden in the darkness.

Even in the middle of the birth gate, Wang Xuan only felt that blood seemed to be dripping from his eyes, staining all his eyes red.

What is it?!

Wang Xuan stared at the surroundings, and the bruises on his forehead were rising.

He wanted to exit immediately, but the big formation gate seemed to be constantly changing, and the hole in the back had disappeared, so he could only walk along the door to find an exit.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan didn't dare to delay, and walked forward cautiously while checking the Three Qi Six Instrument Plates.

Soon, he saw the sergeant who had entered earlier.

These soldiers have all cultivated the "Star Evil Army Pattern Method", and at least condensed the triple evil chakra, and ordinary demon nests and ghost caves can come and go freely.

However, now it has long since been cut off, not only the soul has dissipated, but the body also seems to have been sucked dry of all the spiritual rhyme, like a dry and broken stone statue suspended in the darkness, full of fear.

What happened to them?

Wang Xuan didn't bother to think about it, because that vicious thought was always around him, like a stealthy beast hiding in the shadows, waiting to attack at all times...

Fortunately, this thought never attacked him.

Wang Xuan, under the guidance of the Three Qi Six Instrument Plates, shuttled quickly in the dark, and finally found the Shengmen, and left the cave with a pause.

As he left, he couldn't help but glance back.

I saw that in the darkness, there seemed to be a tall humanoid black figure.

Wearing a high crown, holding a bone staff, a robe and long hair, although he can't see his face clearly, he has a supernatural momentum.

It's the emperor!

After leaving the cave, Wang Xuan was dumbfounded.

He had been to the temple of Emperor Haiyan in the East China Sea, and although the statue had gone through countless years, the emperor's momentum was imprinted in his heart...

Could it be that the emperor was suppressed here?

Wrong!

That figure was not an entity, nor was it a ghostly spirit, there was no trace of emotion, it was just pure evil thoughts.

Wang Xuan's mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

He remembered that when he chatted with the old dragon king Gamorro, he mentioned that in order to break through, the golden immortal had a method of cutting off three corpses, which was a wonderful way to cut off the demons in his heart and break through the realm.

It's just that evil thoughts go hand in hand with it, and after beheading three corpses, as long as the person is not dead, the evil thoughts and demons cannot be extinguished, and they can only find ways to suppress them.

This illustrates... The emperor is alive!
