Chapter Seventy-Five: The Man in the Cellar
Xuanshui City.
Four days after Xu Qing left.
A streamer of light finally fell from the sky and landed in the small courtyard of Li Feng, a disciple of Yuetian Sect.
Immediately, an indescribable aura alarmed Li Feng in the room.
Li Feng, who noticed the movement, walked out of the room quickly.
When he saw the clothes on the person who came and the sign on his waist, he was immediately surprised.
The person who came turned out to be a deacon, a monk of the Yuanying?
But when he saw the appearance of the person who came, he was suddenly stunned.
Then he bowed slightly, smiled and clenched his fists respectfully: "Li Feng, a disciple of Sanfeng, has seen Deacon Wang. ”
Wang Yu, the deacon of Sanfeng, is the most genius person among the disciples of the previous generation of the entire Sanfeng.
It is cultivated in the late Yuan Infant period, and can be transformed into a god monk.
And once fought with a demonic god monk for half a day, shaking the world.
If this person is sent, it can be seen that the sect attaches great importance to this matter.
But in the bottom of his heart, Li Feng still felt that the sect might have underestimated that senior.
Wang Yu didn't know what Li Feng was thinking, and nodded slightly: "Say, what direction did he go?" ”
Li Feng hesitated slightly: "The disciple doesn't know what direction he is going. ”
Hearing this, Wang Yu immediately frowned.
However, Li Feng immediately said, "However, that senior collected a large number of demon avoidance pills before leaving. ”
"In the vicinity of Xuanshui City, the only one who can use such a number of Demon Avoidance Pills is Qingxuan Mountain."
"So the disciple guessed that he might have gone to Qingxuan Mountain."
Hearing this, Deacon Wang looked at Li Feng with satisfaction, and said with approval: "Very well done, this is the reward given to you by the sect." ”
said.
He casually threw out a jade bottle and threw it to Li Feng.
Li Feng took it respectfully with an excited face.
After a brief inspection, he found that it was ten spirit crystal pills of good quality, and he immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, deacon." ”
Afterwards, he took out five elixirs full of spiritual energy from them, took out a jade bottle and put it in it, and returned it to Deacon Wang: "This is a filial piety to you. ”
Deacon Wang chuckled, glanced at Li Feng, and said with satisfaction: "I have a heart." ”
As he spoke, he took the jade bottle and jumped into it and disappeared.
Li Feng smiled and flipped the jade bottle in his hand and put it away excitedly.
I didn't get frustrated at all because half of the elixir was missing.
He hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked to a small courtyard next door.
And in this yard.
The dog baby was wearing a well-fitting blue shirt and was sitting cross-legged on a futon in the middle of the yard.
There was a lot of steaming up and down his body, as if a powerful heat was flowing through his body.
And its cultivation for breath has also changed from the original third layer of qi refining to the fourth layer of qi refining.
"Master!"
Feeling someone walking in, the dog baby hurriedly opened her eyes and looked.
After finding out that it was Li Feng, he stood up respectfully and said.
"Keep cultivating, don't worry about me."
"Hahaha, as a teacher, I just came to see you."
Li Feng smiled heartily and rubbed the dog's head with satisfaction.
......
Sou!
After leaving Xuanshui City.
Wang Yu sat on a black feather condor with a metallic luster all over his body.
All the way quickly turned into a black light and rushed towards Qingxuan Mountain.
Less than half a day.
He came to the location where Qingxuan Mountain was.
With a wave of his big hand, the black divine eagle suddenly turned into spiritual light and disappeared.
Only then did he look around.
It just surprised him.
In the place where the demon cloud should have condensed, he didn't even see the slightest bit of demonic energy.
Wang Yu flew around here a few times in surprise, but he didn't find Qingxuan Mountain!
It seems that Qingxuan Mountain originally existed here...... It's gone.
Until after looking at it for a long time.
Wang Yucai was suddenly surprised.
It turns out that Qingxuan Mountain is still here.
It's just that the rich demonic aura that swirls in it and the black clouds that have shrouded the sky for thousands of years have all dissipated.
So much so that he even thought that this was not Qingxuan Mountain.
This discovery shocked Wang Yu.
Qingxuan Mountain has existed for thousands of years.
It is impossible for such a thing to happen for no reason.
So he hurriedly used his means to investigate carefully.
Finally, he soon found the marks of a violent explosion and the collapsed rocks on the side of a small hill near Qingxuan Mountain.
Not far from here, there was also a huge corpse of a demon tiger cultivated in the late stage of Jindan.
"This mark looks like it was left not so long ago."
"It was supposed to be a big war that caused this hill to collapse."
"Strange."
"This trace doesn't look like it's man-made, could it be caused by the fight between two demonic beasts?"
Wang Yu carefully examined the corpse of the demon tiger and found that it seemed to have been directly shocked to death by some kind of violent explosion.
But he was not good at this autopsy, so he could only shake his head and find nothing.
After jumping back into the air, Wang Yu planned to fly away to take a closer look.
But at this moment.
When he looked down at the earth, he suddenly found the traces of the formation with the same shock as Xu Qing.
"Heaven and Earth Great Array!!"
Wang Yu exclaimed in surprise and opened his mouth wide.
Although he is a sword cultivator, he is also a master of formation.
And his fame in Sanfeng is a sword formation.
If it weren't for that, he probably wouldn't have been able to find traces of this Heaven and Earth Great Array.
After carefully observing for a long time, Wang Yu suddenly gasped: "The place where this hill collapsed is a node of this formation!" ”
"Was it an accident?"
But I think of the mysterious monk.
He immediately dismissed his speculation.
And then.
He had an even more shocking assumption.
"This Heaven and Earth Great Array should have been artificially destroyed."
"And the other party in order to cover up this, so they disguised such a scene of the death of the fighting beast."
"But such a magnificent array, if it weren't for the destruction of that node, the clues would have been revealed."
"If I were allowed to carefully explore this place for three days while it was intact, I would not be able to discover this Heaven and Earth Great Array!"
"Not to mention breaking it."
This means...... Can a Monk do it?
Wang Yu lowered his head and pondered: "In other words, the reason why this Qingxuan Mountain is perennially full of demonic qi is precisely because of this Heaven and Earth Great Array that has never been discovered?" ”
"Yes, it must be like this!"
His tone gradually became excited: "And that senior must also be a spiritual cultivator, so he set out to break this formation and eliminate the demonic calamity of this Qingxuan Mountain for thousands of years!" ”
Wang Yu's face showed an excited expression.
But at this moment.
A powerful beast roar erupted from the mountain.
Wang Yu's consciousness swept away, and his face changed slightly.
Because the demonic qi dissipated, the original ecosystem of the entire Qingxuan Mountain was completely broken.
Warcraft is in turmoil, plants are mutating.
It's a dangerous place.
He had to hurry back to the sect to report the matter.
Meantime.
The matter of that mysterious predecessor must also be updated to the top of the sect in time.
Such a great array of heaven and earth, if it can be thoroughly studied by the sect......
With such a credit, Wang Yu just thought about it, and he couldn't hold back his excitement anymore!
......
What happened in Qingxuan Mountain, Xu Qing didn't know.
At this moment, after cultivating to reach the late stage of Jindan.
He flew at twice as fast as before.
Therefore, in just two days, he had already arrived at the border of Chen State.
The state of Chen is one of the six mortal dynastic states around Yuetianzong.
The entire Yuetian Sect was regarded as the center of the six dynasties and was enshrined as a holy place.
And it is these countries that provide Yuetian Sect with a steady stream of disciple resources.
So, the same.
Yuetianzong also has a responsibility to protect them.
After entering here.
Xu Qing did not expose his cultivation or identity at will.
All the way to the place marked by the intelligence information - near Baiyun Mountain in the north of Chen State.
It was the last place where the escaped cultivators showed their traces.
And just after entering the state of Chen.
Xu Qing also discovered something that surprised him.
That is, the realm of Yuetianzong and the country of Chen seemed to be in two worlds.
Only crossed a boundary mountain.
There is a huge difference in the intensity of the aura.
Yuetian Sect's side can be described as full of aura.
And Chen Guo's aura is simply lacking.
No wonder the young monks are reluctant to be stationed in these mortal realms.
With the concentration of aura here, if you cultivate here, I am afraid that it is possible for your cultivation to retreat instead of advancing.
"There are a total of three counties and twenty villages in the vicinity of Baiyun Mountain."
"The closest place to me is called Baiyun Village, so it's better to go down and rest first."
"The continuous extreme flight in the past few days has consumed me quite a lot, and I can't hold it anymore."
Xu Qing muttered to himself, then chose a direction, and turned into a light and disappeared in an instant.
Less than two pillars of incense.
He saw smoke rising from a mountain village.
So he lowered the clouds and gathered his cultivation into his breath, as if he were a mortal.
All the way to the mountain village.
Not long after walking on the mountain road, he came across two villagers carrying buckets up the mountain together.
The two were slightly surprised when they saw Xu Qing.
Then he curiously asked about Xu Qing's identity.
In these mortal realms, population is the most important resource.
So people rarely run out.
Even if it's from one county to another.
All officials need to use the road guide as a certificate to pass.
This also makes it rare for outsiders to come to mountain villages like Baiyun Village.
Even if there were, it was some porter or seller passing by.
But Xu Qing's appearance is obviously more like a scholar in a hurry.
"This little brother, why did you come to this deep mountain? Are you going to Fengxian on the other side of the mountain? ”
Among the two, an older man smiled at Xu Qing and greeted him from afar.
It looks very simple.
Xu Qing smiled and nodded: "That's right, I heard that it was closer to Fengxian from here, so I walked into the mountains without knowing why." ”
"Two big brothers, is this nearest village Baiyun Village?"
Hearing Xu Qing's words, the two of them were obviously surprised.
After smiling at each other, they walked towards Xu Qing together.
The other young man in a gray coarse cloth shirt smiled heartily: "Little brother, you are really lucky, the two of us are villagers of Baiyun Village." ”
"If you want to go to Fengxian from here, at your speed, I don't think you will be able to get there tonight."
The other nodded and said, "Feng Er is right, why don't you rest in our village for one night and set off tomorrow morning." ”
"By the end of the evening, you'll be able to walk to the county seat."
"Otherwise, if a person is trapped in this deep mountain, it will be bad, there are many beasts and demons in this mountain."
Hearing the advice of the two, Xu Qing suddenly showed a frightened expression, and looked around vigilantly: "The two old brothers said that there are monsters in this mountain?" ”
The two smiled together: "Can I still lie to you?" ”
The younger youth rolled up his sleeves and exposed his right arm.
Xu Qing looked carefully and saw an extremely long scar on that arm.
It looks as if it has been cut by some kind of sharp blade.
"Look, this is what we left over three years ago when we went up the mountain to collect firewood."
"It was getting late, and I was careless and didn't catch up with the team going back, so I met a monkey spirit."
"If I hadn't been rescued by our village's hunting team, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago."
Hearing this, Xu Qing didn't want to say anything more, so he agreed.
followed the two of them all the way along the mountain road to the real Baiyun Village.
Baiyun Village is not big.
Built on the hill.
Dozens of scattered families are scattered in a mountain col.
"Little brother, you will stay at my house tonight."
"I'm the only one in my house, when the time comes, you sleep in the back room, and I sleep outside."
"Don't worry, good food and drink won't hurt you."
"Wait for early tomorrow morning, I will show you the way, and ensure that you can reach the county seat in the evening."
The older man grinned.
Xu Qing hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
Then, after saying hello to the young man, the man led Xu Qing through the village and came to a mud courtyard slightly to the west.
Along the way, many villagers cast curious glances at Xu Qing, and Xu Qing also nodded his head one by one, smiled and signaled, showing very kindness.
"Hey, here, this is my house."
Soon, the man introduced Xu Qing into the courtyard, and then went to release the water in a big way.
It seems that there is no wariness of Xu Qing.
However, Xu Qing was very cautious about all this.
He carefully surveyed the entire courtyard.
Then he stood quietly in the courtyard and waited for the man to come back.
The man was also happy, and cleaned up the innermost room in the courtyard and gave it to Xu Qing.
He slept in another room, similar to a stove.
Apparently for a bachelor, two rooms were more than enough for him.
Didn't expect to come guests.
In this regard, Xu Qing was still a little guilty.
After thanking the man again and again.
He went into the house, and without wasting a little time, he swallowed a recovery pill and cultivated.
Twilight soon fell.
The man called Xu Qing to have dinner together.
The meal was simple, just vegetables from the mountains and a few pieces of bacon.
At the same time, there are two large bowls of porridge.
It's just that when he took the first bite, Xu Qing frowned.
But it quickly loosened.
Then he gulped down all the food and snorted into his mouth.
After eating, Xu Qing burped with satisfaction.
Then he gradually lay down on the table, his breathing was low.
In the end, it was like falling asleep.
Until this time.
The originally honest face of the man in front of him finally showed a sneer.
The man then ran out of the yard and blew a slogan outside.
Seven or eight figures rushed into the courtyard and surrounded Xu Qing in the house.
And one of them was the young man who went to fetch water with the man.
"Hey, I'm so lucky, I caught another blood food."
"Alright, don't talk nonsense, tie it up and throw it in the cellar."
"The Immortal Chief will be here soon."
The older man cautiously mentioned.
Hear the word "immortal chief".
Everyone's faces changed, and then with a hint of fear, Xu Qing was tied up and carried to the backyard.
The man at the head lifted a straw mat.
A dark cellar was revealed.
