The weather is clear and the wind is smooth, just like every day when the weather is clear and the wind is smooth, this is another good season to go out.

The wind wrapped in yellow sand blew the flags and whirred.

At the same time, the wind also blew the robes of Nie Delusion and Sikong Blood, and the robes were hunting and flying in the wind, like two unfurled pennants.

Behind the two of them was a huge bronze door, about five feet wide and ten feet high, embedded between the cliffs, like an impenetrable fortress.

Sikong Xue ascended to the high platform, his eyes cast down, and under the high platform was the team selected through the Linglong Grand Meeting this time, a total of eight, all of them were elites of various sects.

He sneered in his heart and said secretly: "I don't know how many people can come back after this trip." ”

Sikong Blood was not unaware of the dangers of the Linglong Pagoda, he believed that the elders and sects of each sect understood this very well, but at the same time, they also understood that risks and opportunities coexisted.

Obviously, when the opportunities far outweigh the risks, everyone is willing to take risks, even him.

His gaze wandered around, first wandering around the faces of the disciples of the three major sects in Yunzhou, and finally fell on the lotus flower, the lotus flower was still the same, his cheeks were stiff like a zombie, no one thought there was anything wrong, everyone was used to his appearance, even if it was special, it was not surprising.

He cleared his throat and announced in a loud voice: "Now that we have the range to enter the Linglong Pagoda, I can tell you very clearly that behind this gate, there is the road to the Linglong Pagoda, Elder Nie and I can only accompany you here, and the next road is up to you to explore by yourself!"

There was no response, and the core disciples of the sect naturally did not believe ordinary people, applauding wildly, but after Sikong Blood finished speaking, their eyes said the light of longing.

This desire is frightening, even terrifying.

Nie Qingqing subconsciously leaned towards Han Chuang's side and said in a low voice, "Don't these people know the danger?"

Han Chuang smiled slightly and said, "It's not that I don't know the danger, but I know the danger too well, and I know enough to see through the huge benefits behind the danger." ”

Jin Sanfu continued: "Brother Li is right, the people who can appear here are not fools, they know too well the huge benefits behind the danger, as long as the benefits are far greater than they imagined, they are willing to take risks." ”

Han Chuang glanced at Jin Sanfu and said softly: "What about you, the son of the Jin family, what do you want, it should be an easy thing, why do you want to take risks?"

Although the Jin family is only a family in Yunzhou, just because the cultivation quality of the Jin family is generally not high, it does not mean that the Jin family has no strength, in fact, if Jin Sanfu wants anything, whether it is a foreign treasure or an elixir, it is at his fingertips, he does not have to enter the Linglong Pagoda to take risks.

Jin Sanfu was stunned for a moment when he heard Han Chuang's words, then glanced at Wei Hongqiong, who was not far from his side, smiled and shook his head, and said, "There are some things, who can say clearly? ”

Han Chuang smiled and said, "I think Jin Sanfu is not a desire for profit, but a lust for the heart." ”

Jin Sanfu didn't speak, but just smiled honestly. After laughing, I heard him say, "What about you? Why did you enter the pagoda?"

Han Chuang didn't expect Jin Sanfu to ask back, he was also stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "It's just entrusted by others." ”

Jin Sanfu didn't ask again, and the two smiled tacitly.

There are some things that don't need to be pointed out, and they can't be pointed out, so it's good that everyone knows in their hearts.

At this time, Sikong Xue's speech also came to a climax: "Now Elder Nie will open the door through the Linglong Pagoda for everyone!"

Sikong Blood took a half step back and made a gesture of invitation to Nie Yuxin beside him, Han Chuang noticed that when he made this gesture, a fierce gaze flashed in Sikong Xue's eyes, but in a flash, not many people noticed that most people's attention was focused on Nie Yuxin.

Nie Yuxin was still the same as after being injured, his skin was pale and dull, withered like the bark of a tree that had lost its moisture, his thin body seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind, his hair and beard were white, his face was covered by sunglasses, and he looked like an old dragon.

He walked tremblingly towards the bronze gate, walking very slowly, as if he might fall at any moment, and Sikong Blood had to hold on beside him to prevent him from falling.

Seeing this scene, Han Chuang sneered in his heart, and said to Nie Qingqing in a voice that only two people could hear: "Qingqing, your father is really good at pretending. ”

Nie Qingqing glanced at Han Chuang and replied, "I have to pretend." As he spoke, he pointed his chin in the direction of Sikong Blood.

Han Chuang suddenly understood the reason why Nie Yuxin did this, it was very simple - in order to dispel Sikong Xue's doubts, if Sikong Blood knew that he had regained his strength, he would never let him go easily.

Instead of being a martial artist in danger, it is better to be a safe ordinary person and launch a fatal blow at the most critical moment;Han Chuang nodded and sighed: "Your father is really scheming, and even Sikong Blood has been deceived by him. ”

Nie Qingqing smiled: "It's not up to you, I don't think Sikong Blood thought that you could heal Daddy's injury." ”

When the two were talking, they saw Nie Yuxin raise his hand and signal for Sikong Blood to stand away, Sikong Blood had no opinion, and immediately stood a few steps away, Nie Yuxin took out the white jade pendant from his waist and threw it into the air, and then something shocking happened, the jade pendant actually floated in the air.

Han Chuang and Nie Qingqing glanced at each other, Gu saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and with their eyesight, they clearly knew that this jade pendant did not have any true qi lingering on its body, that is to say, the jade pendant was completely floating in the air on its own strength.

You must know that the jade pendant is a dead thing, and the dead thing may have a certain amount of power, but it needs the traction of the martial artist's true qi to burst out of power, but the jade pendant does not have any traction.

Han Chuang said in a low voice: "Sure enough, it is the key to open the Linglong Pagoda, and there is indeed something wonderful. ”

Nie Qingqing, who knew the inside story, couldn't help but nodded.

Nie Delusion's heart began to seal, and his hands were drawn in the air. The mudra is a wonderful technique, which does not need to consume true qi, as long as the trajectory of the strand is correct, it can burst out with amazing power, most people define it as the force of nature, so Sikong Blood was not surprised when he saw Nie Delusion exerting this force, in his opinion, although Nie Delusion lost his strength, but the technique of the mudra was not dropped.

I saw a five-pointed star sign appear in front of Nie Yuxin's body, and different lights flashed on each of the five corners.

Jin Sanfu said in a low voice: "This is the Tianmang Five Elements Array, the light of the five corners represents the five elements of heaven and earth, yellow represents gold, brown represents earth, blue represents water, green represents wood, and red represents fire.

As soon as the words fell, I heard Nie Yuxin shouting: "Sect Master, please also invite the Five Elements Boy!"

Sikong Xue nodded, and with a wave of his right hand, he saw five warriors carrying five seven or eight-year-old boys to the bronze door.

Nie Qingqing frowned and said, "What is this for?"

Jin Sanfu stared at the boys and said in a low voice, "Blood sacrifice." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the samurai swung their steel swords and made a cut in the boy's arm. Nie Qingqing couldn't help but exclaim, and there were many people who also exclaimed, even those martial artists who didn't exclaim, they also subconsciously frowned.

Everyone has compassion, especially when dealing with unarmed and vulnerable children, and this compassion can affect a person's judgment.

I saw blood oozing from the boys' arms, and the boys were breaking out in a cold sweat because of the pain, and their bodies were shaking, but none of them dared to scream, or even move.

Finally, someone couldn't help but shout: "Sect Master Sikong, what is this for?"

This person was Mu Zixu, the elder of the Danding faction, and he saw that his brows were furrowed and his face was unhappy.

Nie Qingqing saw that this person was wearing the clothes of the Danding faction, and he could speak out, and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that there are also good people in the Danding faction. ”

Han Chuang and Jin Sanfu shook their heads undeniably, it was impossible to judge whether Mu Zixu was a good person or not, but his actions at the moment were much more upright than them.

Sikong Blood's originally happy expression suddenly sank. If someone else said this, I am afraid that he would have already begun to reprimand, but it was the elder of the Danding faction who said this, Mu Zixu, although Sikong Blood did not care about the combat effectiveness of the Danding faction, but he could not ignore its network, the Danding faction not only enjoyed a good reputation in the southeast region, but even had connections with other sects in the outer regions.

As soon as he thought of this, the corners of Sikong Blood's mouth couldn't help but show a faint smile, and he said, "Elder Mu, don't be nervous, these boys will be fine, I'm just borrowing a little of their blood." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the blood droplets hanging down by the boys suddenly rise in mid-air, and five boys, five blood beads, flew towards the five corners of the Tianmang Five Elements Array.

The blood beads seeped into the array, and they disappeared strangely, and then the light of the five elements was even better.

The samurai who was guarding the boys immediately took out the ointment from his waist and applied it to the boy's wound, and the blood immediately stopped, and the boys fell into the samurai's arms as if they had been drained of all their strength.

The leading warrior glanced at Sikong Blood, and Sikong Blood said in a low voice: "Take it down, take care of it." The samurai nodded and picked the boy down.

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief, they had thought that the blood sacrifice needed the boy's life, but it turned out that it only needed a little blood.

Nie Qingqing said: "This is about the same, if the Evil Moon Sect dares to make human sacrifices public, I'm afraid that the major sects will not agree." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jin Sanfu: "Otherwise, although this blood sacrifice did not cost the boys' lives, it was no different from asking for their lives." ”

"What?" Nie Qingqing exclaimed, and even Han Chuang's gaze couldn't help but fall on Jin Sanfu.

Jin Sanfu sighed and said: "This Tianmang Five Elements Array originally needed to extract the true qi of the whole body of the Five Elements martial artists to be activated, so that the true qi of the martial artists would be abolished, but Sikong Blood had the ingenuity to replace the true qi with the blood of the Five Elements boys, which also saved those martial artists from becoming waste, but it was a pity for these boys." ”

"What's wrong?" a hint of foreboding rose in Nie Qingqing's heart.

Jin Sanfu sighed and said: "What these boys have lost is not ordinary blood, but human essence blood, which contains the essence of the human body, and the essence is depleted, even a martial artist will be seriously ill, let alone these ordinary boys."

Nie Qingqing said: "What will happen to them?"

Jin Sanfu said: "The best case is that you can't cultivate martial arts, it's more likely-"

"What could it be?" Nie Qingqing said hurriedly.

"Maybe then the old sickness is riddled with it. Jin Sanfu sighed.

However, this is much better than losing a few half-step concentrating martial artists, compared to Sikong Blood, who also thinks so.

"It's so hateful!" Nie Qingqing scolded as he stared at Sikong Blood with a fierce gaze.

"Who else knows?" asked Han Chuang.

Jin Sanfu said: "I'm afraid only that Mu Zixu of the Danding faction has some feelings." ”

Han Chuang looked at Mu Zixu and saw that he frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
