Mountains to the south.

Thousands of miles long, the mountains are majestic, the mountains are stacked, the dangerous peaks are standing, the demons are everywhere in the depths of the mountains, the fierce birds cover the sun, and even many places are densely covered with poisonous miasma.

But for the Heavenly Absolute Palace, it is also one of the treasures.

In the Nanli Mountains, because of the natural geographical environment, there are also reasons why it is the territory of the demon clan, and strange medicines are everywhere.

Many elixirs that could not be cultivated in the spiritual fields still had to rely on the Nanli Mountain Range to produce them.

Therefore, although the Nanli Mountain Range is the territory of the demon clan, the disciples of the Heavenly Absolute Palace still have occasional contacts.

Of course, in order not to touch those demon clans in the Nanli Mountain Range, the disciples of the Heavenly Absolute Palace rarely went into the Nanli Mountain Range to look for these rare elixirs.

But.

In the vicinity of the Nanli Mountain Range, the Heavenly Absolute Palace has built several strongholds and opened several markets to collect elixir treasures.

This naturally also attracted a lot of casual cultivators to come here to earn some spirit crystals, pills, and so on needed for cultivation.

Many casual cultivators made a living from this, settling around the stronghold as their home, forming a variety of casual cultivation towns, with the stronghold as the center, scattered in all directions.

For these towns, the Heavenly Absolute Palace not only did not stop it, but also encouraged it, and gave support in the early construction and later formation arrangement.

These small towns formed by the gathering and settlement of casual cultivators are different from ordinary towns, and have their own autonomy, and are basically managed by one or several scattered families.

The managers of these small towns.

As long as the demon clan invades the territory of the Heavenly Absolute Palace, they accept the unified deployment of the Heavenly Absolute Palace, and the Heavenly Absolute Palace will naturally protect them.

…

South from the mountain range.

Although there was chaos for a while some time ago, it was calm for a while.

And recently, for some reason, chaos has begun to occur frequently.

In the small towns around many strongholds, demonic disasters began to occur frequently, which made the disciples of the Heavenly Absolute Palace a little overwhelmed, and the task of the Miscellaneous Affairs Peak regarding the demonic disasters on this side of the Nanli Mountain Range also increased suddenly.

Obviously.

Something should have happened to the south side of the mountain range...

…

Lin Yue looked at the rather lively town in front of him, and thought a little in his heart.

He hadn't entered the town yet, but Lin Yue had already vaguely felt that the atmosphere in this town was a little strange.

But if Lin Yue wants to say what is wrong with this town, he can't say it for a while.

After all.

People come and go, it still looks quite lively, full of fireworks.

Take back your mind.

In a flash, Lin Yue had already come to the gate of the town.

For the arrival of Lin Yue.

The monks who came in and out of the town didn't react in particular.

After all, Lin Yue's body was not wearing the clothes of a disciple of the Heavenly Peerless Palace.

Walking on the bustling streets, Lin Yue's mood suddenly calmed down, looking at these, most of them were in the foundation building period, or even the loose cultivation in the qi refining period.

Lin Yue suddenly realized.

In the past few years, his growth has definitely far surpassed that of all the monks in this world.

In equal time.

His own achievements are actually terrifying enough.

As the master said, he is indeed a little too obsessed with becoming stronger.

Of course, Lin Yue will not abandon this obsession, but Lin Yue began to realize that he can't be obsessed with becoming stronger quickly in a short period of time.

This is a rather contradictory idea.

Everything in the world takes time to accumulate, and I am fast enough...

When you encounter a bottleneck at this time, you should really go with the flow instead of continuing to bury your head in the ground.

With a shift in mindset.

Lin Yue began to be full of interest and walked around the street market in this town.

On both sides of the street, there are many shops selling the cultivation resources needed by various monks.

Of course.

These goods, the current Lin Yue is completely disdainful.

However, looking at those who came in and out of the Qi Refining Period and the Foundation Building Period, there were still a few Jindan Stage cultivators.

Lin Yue began to realize.

Even if it is the Taixuan Nine Heavens, the low-level monks are actually not much different from the low-level monks in the Xiaoyuan Realm.

Immortal road.

In addition to the innate spiritual root, the cultivation environment and resources are also closely related.

For the same cultivation realm, it is considered fast to break through a small realm for three or five years of casual cultivation, but in a place with a strong aura such as the Heavenly Absolute Palace.

The time will be shortened by three or four percent, coupled with the assistance of high-grade pills, the guidance of the master, etc., it is not uncommon to break through a small realm in more than a year.

The world is so unfair.

Not only are the cultivation speed of low-level cultivators slow, but the cost of trial and error in any risky action is also high, which also makes many casual cultivators cautious and cautious, for fear of making mistakes.

And so it goes.

Although it is not easy to make big mistakes, it also allows many opportunities to pass by.

This is like a vicious circle, even in the Taixuan Nine Heavens, which are countless times richer in resources than in the Xiaoyuan Realm, it is just as difficult to avoid.

Therefore, inside the Heavenly Absolute Palace, and outside the Heavenly Absolute Palace.

The strength of the monks is also very different.

It is rare to see a Yuan Infant Stage cultivator in the Scattered Cultivation, and he is only a core disciple in the Heavenly Absolute Palace.

Although the status is not low, as a disciple, there is also an assessment of the amount of tasks every month.

Compared with the deacon-level god-turning stage monks, there is no assessment of the amount of tasks, so there is naturally a fundamental difference.

In the casual cultivation, the transformation period is not nothing, but compared to the Jindan period and the Yuan Infant stage, the proportion of the number is even more pitiful...

…

It's just a small town after all.

The streets aren't particularly long.

In just a quarter of an hour or two, Lin Yue walked from beginning to end.

During this period, Lin Yue only encountered two Yuan Infant Stage Cultivators, and both of them were at the beginning of the Yuan Infant Period.

Looking at the pomp and circumstance when they passed by, it was clear that their status in the town was not low.

It seems that the nine days of Taixuan, the Yuan Infant Period is not uncommon in casual cultivation, but the number is indeed not much.

Accompanied by thoughts.

Lin Yue casually found a teahouse, ordered a cup of spiritual tea, and began to wait calmly.

The squad of the three core disciples.

Lin Yue had obtained their teleportation talisman from Miscellaneous Peak, and before entering the town, Lin Yue had already sent out the teleportation talisman.

But.

So far, no one has replied to themselves, it seems that things are indeed a little tricky?

Thoughts passed through my heart.

Lin Yue was still brewing the spiritual tea unhurriedly, and the quality of the spiritual tea in this town was naturally not much better.

Compared with the spiritual tea in the teahouse in Yongxing City in Xiaoyuan Realm, it is even worse.

However, Lin Yue didn't care.

For spiritual tea, he is not particularly particular, and what he tastes is nothing more than the taste that is higher than that of boiled water.

While drinking spiritual tea and looking at the lively teahouse, Lin Yue's eyes moved slightly.

This town.

It's really lively...

After drinking the two spiritual teas, Lin Yue still didn't wait for the messenger he was waiting for.

This made the smile on Lin Yue's face brighter and brighter.

Raised his hand and beckoned.

The teahouse Xiao Er suddenly greeted him with a smile:

"Is there anything else you need from this guest officer?"

"Checkout."

Lin Yue smiled and handed out a few pieces of spirit crystals.

"Okay~! The guest officer walks slowly~! ”

Xiao Er took the spirit crystal with a smile on his face.

Feeling the touch in his hand, Lin Yue squinted his eyes with a hint of a smile on his face.

Nodding his head and not saying anything, Lin Yue got up and left the teahouse.

After leaving the teahouse, Lin Yue wandered around the town again.

Especially the mansion of the person in charge of the town, Lin Yue also went around in a special circle.

Looking at the mansion with vine-covered walls, Lin Yue didn't make any moves, as if he was just wandering by.

Over time.

Lin Yue also began to notice the sight around him.

Feeling the sight of the surroundings, Lin Yue smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and did not continue to wander around this town, but went directly out of the town.

…

Falling from the sky.

Lin Yue frowned slightly.

Here, there is a small forest more than ten miles away from the town.

Turning to look behind him, Lin Yue was also a little surprised in his heart.

Went back?

This was somewhat unexpected.

So far.

The messengers of the three core disciple teams have not yet replied to him, Lin Yue doesn't need to think about it anymore, these three teams must have had an accident.

As for whether they are alive or not, it is gone.

Lin Yue couldn't speak.

But now Lin Yue can be very sure.

There was definitely something wrong with that town just now!

The disappearance of his younger brothers and sisters may be inseparable from this town.

However, who is behind this?

Actually daring to do these small actions in the territory of the Heavenly Absolute Palace, the courage is not small.

Burning Heaven Sect?

The demon clan of the Nanli Mountains?

Lin Yue's heart moved slightly.

Looking up at the sun in the sky, Lin Yue's figure slowly sank into the shadows of the trees.

…

Two hours later.

As the sun sets, night begins to fall on the land.

In the darkness, Lin Yue, who was sitting cross-legged on the branches, slowly opened his eyes.

…

Meanwhile.

In the Heavenly Absolute Palace, in the Heavenly Thunder Valley, the four figures drowned in the thunder and lightning slowly dispersed.

…

Inside the woods.

Beside Lin Yue, a pitch-black figure began to condense almost simultaneously, and then turned into a pool of pitch-black, blending into the shadows.

A moment later.

Lin Yue's eyes moved slightly, and his body also turned black, blending into the shadows...

…

Outside the town.

A pitch black, blending into the shadows, arrived here without a sound.

The town in the distance is still brightly lit, and it is a little weird...

The pitch-black shadow slowly rose from the ground, and then turned into Lin Yue's figure.

Looking at the town in front of him, Lin Yue stepped in expressionlessly.

…

The lights are bright and crowded.

The liveliness of the town did not cool down because of the arrival of night, but even warmed up.

Merely...

These monks, no longer bustling around, but staring blankly, walked towards the center of the town, the mansion of the loose cultivator family in charge of the town.

In the crowd, the shadow clone that turned into Lin Yue's appearance followed the crowd expressionlessly and squeezed forward.

…

When Lin Yue followed the crowd and stopped, he had already come to the outside of the mansion in the center of the town.

At this time.

Outside the mansion, nearly 2,000 monks from the town gathered.

There is a special aura in the air, and these breaths also come from this mansion, and these special breaths are constantly emitting to the surroundings.

These glazed monks were obviously affected by this special aura.

At this moment, the monks gathered here, all of them standing with blank eyes.

His eyes were full of hollowness, and he looked at the mansion as if he was waiting for something.

…

Inside the shadows.

Lin Yue looked at this scene and thought a little in his heart.

It seems that there is indeed nothing wrong with his previous feelings, and the problem is indeed here.

As time went on, more and more monks from the town gathered here. These monks were glazed over, their eyes were hollow, and it was clear that they were not in a very right state.

Lin Yue didn't rush to make a move, just waited quietly.

After another half an hour, at last no more monks came, and all the monks in the town had gathered here.

That's when it happened.

A strange picture came into Lin Yue's eyes.

The walls of the mansion and the vines outside the walls actually began to wriggle strangely.

Then, the vines spread down from the walls, crawling rapidly on the ground, and quickly wrapping around them.

The next picture is a bit familiar.

The vines actually pried open the monks' mouths and slipped through their mouths.

Friars and friars, young and old, are treated the same at the moment.

Even Lin Yue's shadow clone was the same, Lin Yue didn't resist, and let the vine get into the mouth of the shadow clone.

A moment later.

The whole place began to be filled with a strong smell of blood, and I saw that those vines began to draw blood from the bodies of those monks, accompanied by the extraction of blood.

The color of the vines also changed from dark brown to crimson, and not only that, but new shoots began to sprout from the vines, piercing into the skin of the monks.

It was only a matter of moments before the monks' bodies began to twitch involuntarily.

Obviously, they're not feeling very good right now...

Among these vines, only the vine that burrowed into Lin Yue's shadow clone did not change at all, which also began to attract the attention of these vines.

Three vines quickly crawled from the wall towards Lin Yue's shadow clone again.

Soon.

Lin Yue's shadow clone was entangled by four vines, looking at this scene, Lin Yue had a slight understanding in his heart.

So far, Lin Yue has not waited and watched.

With the thought of moving.

The shadow clone suddenly exploded with thunder in his body, and the thunder rolled, and the silver mang suddenly blasted the vines on his body into slag.

Several monks around him were also shaken away by Lin Yue's thunder, accompanied by the sound of those monks falling to the ground.

A circular clearing, centered on Lin Yue's shadow clone, was swept out in an instant.

Meanwhile.

Under Lin Yue's shadow clone, countless shadow filaments spread rapidly around.

"Hiss~~~!"

At this moment, there was a strange roar in the mansion, and the vines outside the walls of the entire mansion instantly rioted.

The ground began to shake violently, and the monks were also unsteady on their feet, staggering in all directions.

That's when it happened.

The shadow filaments of the shadow clone, the formation pattern was constructed, and the fifth-order bondage trapping array [Golden Lock Prison Dragon Array] was completed in an instant, and the powerful restraint suppression force was instantly suppressed towards the mansion.

"Hiss~~~!!"

The earth-shattering roar burst out from the mansion again, and it was a pity that in front of the powerful fifth-order formation suppression force.

The vines outside the walls of the entire mansion all stopped, and even the vibration of the ground in the town stopped.

At this moment, several messengers suddenly shot out from the mansion, hovering over Lin Yue's shadow splitting body, but they did not fall, as if they were headless flies.

In the shadow at the end of the street, Lin Yue looked at this scene and thought a little in his heart.

With a thought in his mind, his figure stepped out of the shadows, and instantly rose into the air.

And those messengers, at this time, also seemed to have found their target, and they came to Lin Yue's body in the blink of an eye.

Reach out and fish.

The three communication talismans were held by Lin Yue in his hand, and the contents of the communication talismans immediately came into his mind.

The corners of his mouth smiled coldly.

Lin Yue no longer had any hesitation in his heart.

With a flash of light in his hand, the ninth-order magic weapon long sword was suddenly held in his hand, and when his figure appeared again, he had already come to the sky above the mansion.

The ninth-order magic weapon long sword in his hand stabbed out towards the mansion one after another, and the sword qi formed by the true yuan suddenly poured down.

Until now.

Lin Yue had already figured out what was wrong with this town, and what was going on with those vines outside this mansion?

"Little vine demon, dare to cause trouble in the territory of our Heavenly Absolute Palace?!"

Spit lightly in his mouth, and Lin Yue's hands did not stop.

Dao Dao sword qi cut through those vines, blowing up debris all over the sky, but what flowed out of the vines was not any juice, but blood-smelling blood.

As the sword qi cut through the vines and walls outside the mansion, the situation in the mansion room was revealed in front of Lin Yue.

Where is there any space?

Densely packed, they are all clumps of vines, and these vines are wrapped in figures.

Among them, there are those core disciples of the Heavenly Absolute Palace, and the core disciples of these Heavenly Absolute Palaces are also very good, and they can barely support it until now.

It's just that the body is entangled by this vine, and it can't break free at all.

Looking at the weakness of their outer body defenses, if Lin Yue came a little later, I am afraid that these core disciples would not be able to support it.

At this time, those core disciples of the Heavenly Absolute Palace naturally saw Lin Yue in the air.

All of them suddenly showed smiles on their faces, and for a while, the true elements in each of their bodies were surging violently, and they began to struggle desperately.

Before in order to hold on longer.

Therefore, these core disciples are barely maintaining themselves without being surrounded by these vines, and try to prolong the time of perseverance.

But now that they see Lin Yue, they naturally don't have to continue to keep the true yuan one by one.

And Lin Yue watched the movements of these junior brothers and sisters, and his hands were not idle, and one after another sword qi poured down, helping them break through the vines outside their bodies and trapping them.

After a dozen breaths.

The nine core disciples all barely rose in the air, came to Lin Yue's side, and thanked Lin Yue with a grateful face:

"Thank you, senior brother, for saving your life!"

With a smile on his face, Lin Yue nodded at them and said:

"Okay, there is no need to say more kind words, the family doesn't talk about two families. Now let's solve this vine demon first. ”

"Yes! Brother! ”

Hearing that Lin Yue shifted the topic to Teng Demon, these nine core disciples naturally hurriedly responded.

Looking down at the mansion, anger suddenly rose on his face.

If it weren't for Senior Brother Lin's arrival this time, they might have been silently drained and swallowed by this vine demon.

Come to think of this.

They couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and they were terrified for a while.
