730 Descend into the Valley of the Black Clouds
After getting the map jade slip from Mu Chen that recorded the location of the black-scaled snake, Bai Yunfei politely retired and left the main hall.
When there were only a few people from the Netherworld Sect left in the main hall, Mo Yanfu was silent for a long time, and suddenly turned to an old man on the left hand side who had never spoken, and said, "Great Elder, what do you think of this Bai Yunfei?"
The white-haired old man, who looked to be about seventy years old, stroked the long white beard that hung down to his chest, and said four words lightly: "Arrogance." β
After saying this derogatory assessment, he paused, but continued: "But on the other hand, it can also be said to be a sign of self-confidence, because ...... He does have the capital. β
The sharp-mouthed Elder Qi pouted slightly: "It's just a hairy boy who has not dried up, and he is a little arrogant and arrogant with the master of Zijin, I don't believe that he can really refine a heaven-level horcrux with his strength, since he has already boasted of Haikou, when I see it, he can only give up the soul devouring chain." β
As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed, "I really can't imagine that he really has the Soul Refining Sect's Soul Devouring Chain in his hand, this is the Soul Refining Sect's secret Horcrux, how did he get it?" He said that he killed a Soul Queen of the Soul Refining Sect and won it, how credible does Elder Mu think this statement is?"
Mu Chen said: "Elder Qi don't underestimate this Bai Yunfei, although his own strength is not up to the Soul Emperor, but don't forget, there are two seventh-level soul beasts by his side, plus he is a Purple Gold Disciple, there must be many Horcruxes on his body, if they kill a Soul Emperor of the Soul Refining Sect, I don't doubt it." β
Elder Na Qi said nonchalantly: "Forget it, none of this matters, anyway, he has only come to our sect for a few days, in short, after this matter, we can get a Heaven Rank Horcrux, which is enough...... Tsk, the people of the Refining Weapon Sect are 'wealthy', any junior, even taking the Heavenly Rank Horcrux so seriously, just to save a person who is not related to him, can take such a treasure as a price, should he say that he is a loser or should he praise her for being too kind?"
Mo Yanfu smiled and said, "Hehe, young man, it's always good to have such a heart to save people." β
Mu Chen asked with some hesitation: "Sect Master, do we really let these young people deal with that black-scaled snake? This is a bit inappropriate, isn't it? If they have any accidents, whether it is the Refining Weapon Sect or the Zheng family in the capital, we will not be able to explain it......"
"How dangerous the Black Cloud Forest is, a few juniors don't understand, don't we still know? How can they really let them go deep alone. Mo Yanfu said and looked at the Great Elder, and said, "Let the Great Elder follow them secretly, don't let them have an accident, if they can't deal with the black-scaled snake, you will help them, since you have decided to try to treat the little girl, the black-scaled snake gall still has to be retrieved." β
The Great Elder nodded slightly and said, "Sect Master, don't worry, the old man knows how to do it." β
......
After walking out of the main hall, Zheng Kai asked Bai Yunfei with some uncertainty: "Yunfei, are you really going to find the black-scaled snake?"
Bai Yunfei nodded and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"
Zheng Kai was dissatisfied: "Look at what you said, brother, am I so timid in your heart?"
Then his tone changed, and he said with some concern: "However, this is the Black Cloud Forest...... the name of 'one of the three dangerous places' is not false, wouldn't it be too hasty for a few of us to rush in? Why don't we find someone from the Netherworld Sect to lead the way? Why don't we call that Xuran?"
Bai Yunfei waved his hand and said: "Don't bother people, don't we have a map?And although Xuran's strength is not weak, it is not as good as Xiao Qi and Long Lan, right? With them, what are you worried about, even if you encounter danger, it's always okay to run if you can't beat it, so don't worry." β
"And ......" he glanced back at the main hall behind him and continued, "Do you think that the people of the Netherworld Sect will really let a few of us just mess around? Don't you notice that there is only one way to the destination on the map, and the rest of the place is blurred? This is also the headquarters of the Netherworld Sect, how can there not be a few secret locations? And don't forget, we are 'guests'...... Whether it's to keep us from breaking in or to keep us from getting into trouble, I don't think it's going to be 'just' for a few of us to go to the black-scaled snake. β
Zheng Kai looked at the map jade slip in his hand, and said with a smile: "Damn! I didn't expect you kid to think so much, I thought you were really irritated by that elder." β
He played with the jade slip and asked, "Then when are we leaving?"
Bai Yunfei discerned the direction and said, "Of course, the sooner you save people, the better, let's go now!"
With a wave of his right hand, he summoned the Storm Flying Sword, dodged and stood up, wanting to take the lead and fly to the right.
Zheng Kai suddenly shouted: "Alas! Yunfei, wait!"
Bai Yunfei glanced at him dissatisfied: "What? Didn't I say that it is important to save people? Let's leave now, maybe we can come back before dark." β
"I didn't mean that, I mean you can't fly anywhere!"
"Why?"
"You're flying in the wrong direction!"
β......β
Bai Yunfei flew so fast that some of the Netherworld Sect disciples who were flying in the sect disappeared before they could stop them, and these people were shocked and hurriedly reported it, but they were told not to pay attention to it.
When he flew out of a distance of about 1,000 meters, he came to the transparent mountain protection phantom array again, Bai Yunfei hesitated slightly, and then tried to continue to move forward, but he actually 'went out' directly, and after experiencing the feeling of passing through a layer of viscous liquid again, Bai Yunfei turned around again, but only saw a flat sea of trees that could not be seen at a glance, and the mountain gate of the Netherworld Sect had disappeared.
The air outside the phantom array seemed to be a little fresher than inside, but the feeling of depression was much stronger, Bai Yunfei and Zheng Kai, including Xiao Qi, all felt very uncomfortable, and only Long Lan seemed to enjoy it quite a bit.
The black clouds in the sky at a height of 10,000 meters but never dissipated appeared a little gap because of the movement at this moment, and the long-lost sunlight pierced the darkness like a sharp sword and shot down, making it finally light in this black cloud valley, it seems that this is the noon moment mentioned by Xuran before.
The map jade slip was in Zheng Kai's hand, and he led the way, and everyone flew all the way, heading towards the depths of the Black Cloud Forest.
Along the way, Zheng Kai looked at the Storm Flying Sword at Bai Yunfei's feet, and said with envy: "Tsk, Yunfei, I have long wanted to ask, your flying sword is a Heavenly Rank......, right? I really envy the people of your Refining Weapon Sect, the high-level Horcruxes that others can't ask for, but you don't seem to be able to use them up. β
Bai Yunfei glanced at the flying sword under his feet and said with a smile: "Hehe, when you come back in a while, you will give me your flying sword, and I will help you 'refine' it, maybe you can also be promoted to the heavenly level." β
Zheng Kai's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Really, don't fool me, you can 'refine' the Horcrux?" I heard that this is a more sophisticated means than refining the Horcrux, and it is not easy to master without the Soul Emperor Realm, you have already learned it?"
Bai Yunfei said: "Don't forget what my identity is, naturally I have to learn more than ordinary Refining Sect disciples......"
Zheng Kai said excitedly: "That's decided, what you said can be refined to the heavenly level, don't fool me." β
Because he knew that Bai Yunfei had already made the achievement of refining a heaven-level horcrux, Zheng Kai had no doubts about what he said that outsiders would not believe at all, anyway, now that he has a certain degree of immunity, he feels that there seems to be no such thing as 'the strength realm is not enough to do it' in Bai Yunfei's body.
The two chatted all the way, but there was no tension in the dangerous situation, the more they flew in, the more they felt the breath of more and more sixth-level soul beasts, but this was not a threat to them, along the way, Long Lan deliberately exuded the coercion of his seventh-level soul beasts, and the soul beasts in the forest below did not dare to come forward, as for the seventh-level soul beasts, Bai Yunfei only sensed one from a distance when he flew about one hundred and eighty miles, but because the soul consciousness was limited, he could not sense it clearly, and it was far away on the right, not on their way forward, and there was no conflictγ
Finally, when they set off from the Netherworld Sect and flew about two hundred miles into the depths of the Black Cloud Valley, everyone stopped, Zheng Kai scanned the jade slip in his hand for a moment, looked around, pointed to a three-hundred-meter-high barren mountain wrapped in black clouds five hundred meters in front and said, "If the record is correct, that is our destination." β
Looking up, I saw that the place he was pointing to was very different from the surrounding situation, there was a black cloud hundreds of meters wide in the sky that seemed to be attracted, and it actually 'fell' from the sky, covering the top of this mountain peak for a hundred meters, and then a whirlpool composed of black clouds fell from above and down on the top of this mountain, which looked very strange.
Zheng Kai put away the jade slip and asked, "The place has been found, so how can we find that black-scaled snake now?"
Bai Yunfei raised his hand and pointed ahead, and said, "I don't think I need to 'find' it, because I have already seen it......"
At this moment, the black clouds that shrouded the mountain peak were a little fainter, and when I looked closely, I found that the object on the top of the mountain, which looked like a huge strange rock, was not a stone at all......! A huge black snake head!
Its body seemed to be buried in the mountain, only revealing a ten-meter-sized head, and at this moment, it was half open and swallowing the black clouds falling from the sky like drinking water!
