004: Everyone in the world is good for immortals, but don't you know that immortals have troubles
Meanwhile.
Chen Dengming had already stepped into the Ice Wind Forest under the notice of the Eighteen Shadow Guards, and he already knew in advance how many people were coming this time.
But looking at the ethereal cliff that connected the heavens and the earth like a dragon absorbing water, although he was also shocked in his heart, he didn't see any trace of an immortal cultivator at all.
"Being able to make such a big movement, I don't know if it was some kind of immortal path formation in ancient times, or was it made by an immortal cultivator who came? If it is an immortal cultivator who has descended...... I'm afraid it's not as simple as a low-level immortal cultivator. ”
Chen Dengming's eyebrows were raised, and he pondered for a long time, thinking of the Eighteen Shadow Guards reminding him that the innate grandmasters on the mountain peak had already fought at this time, and chuckled lightly, dispelling the idea of approaching the mountain at this time.
There is still half a month before the official opening of the Ascending Immortal Conference, and before the so-called immortals have come, some people have already begun to fight, and all they do is a false name and invitation, but he is too lazy to go over and ask for trouble.
At present, he continues to lie dormant and observe from a distance, relying on the eighteen shadow guards to transmit information every day.
On the second day, the Shadow Guard came to report: Nangong Shuo, the head of the Nangong family who was the first in the congenital family, fought with the sixth Yue Kun in the congenital battle, and Nangong Shuo won the battle.
On the fourth day, the Shadow Guard came to report: Nangong Shuo fought with Xu Changqing, the third innate Fengqing sword, and won by one move.
On the sixth day, the Shadow Guard came to report: Shao Yufeng, the fourth Congenital Phoenix, fought with the Fifth Innate Wang Shi, and Shao Yufeng won by a narrow margin.
On the ninth day, the Shadow Guards came to report: the two Shadow Guards were tracked by Shao Yufeng who suddenly descended the mountain, and were discovered by the snake Gu warning, the two Shadow Guards committed suicide, and the other Shadow Guards quickly evacuated, and the intelligence work was stopped.
"Young Feather Wind...... Nangong Shuo......"
Chen Dengming stood in the forest with his hands behind his back, looking at the still earth-shattering ethereal cliff scene in the distance, revealing a hint of discoloration.
Nangong Shuo and Shao Yufeng fought with other congenitals one after another, but they never moved their real character, as if they were just tempting, which was neither like really fighting for the title of the first in the martial arts world, nor like an invitation card in someone's hand, not knowing what to do.
Before the time came, he chose to continue to hibernate.
After living for more than eighty years, he is no longer the hot-blooded young man who fantasized about roaring for 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi at the beginning of the crossing, but has patience and stability.
On the eleventh day.
On the top of the mountain, in addition to the dozens of people who had already reached the top of the mountain, more people were attracted by the wonders of the ethereal peaks that connected the heavens and the earth, but they were afraid of the power of the grandmaster, and they all stayed on the mountainside and did not dare to climb to the top of the mountain.
However, the arrival of these people has made it convenient for the Shadow Guard to listen to information.
On the top of the mountain, the atmosphere has become more and more solemn, dozens of people have different thoughts, Nangong Shuo and Shao Yufeng look at each other with heart, and their eyes have become more and more impatient.
"The current situation is different from what you and I expected, Chen Dengming has never appeared, could it be that the person holding the invitation is not him, but another high-ranking person?"
"The day before yesterday, I tracked down those two people, both of whom were first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, but they committed suicide by taking poison before I caught up, and they were able to cultivate such a master, so that they were willing to die, there are indeed nine in the rivers and lakes, but now only the Chen family has not arrived."
The two made eye contact so far, and they were so angry that the roots of their teeth were itching, and they had never seen such a capable person.
"This guy has lived in a simple house for many years, low-key and abnormal, it is really cautious and calm, you and I will wait for two more days, two days at most, if Chen Dengming does not show up, he will attack Hu Lei, yesterday was tempted, only Hu Lei we can easily take it."
…
Two days passed quickly.
There are only three days left before the official start of the Dengxian Conference.
The remaining sixteen shadow guards blended into the crowd on the mountainside, and heard first-hand information for Chen Dengming again-Nangong Shuo and Shao Yufeng suddenly joined forces to attack Hu Lei, who was seventh on the heavenly list, and forced Hu Lei to hand over the invitation, and the two of them gave up.
"See you in the picture...... These two old foxes, who have been watering for so many days, turned out to be tempting, just to finally take people under the knife, poor Hu Lei. ”
Chen Dengming received the information transmitted by the Shadow Guard, and a slight chuckle tugged at the corner of his mouth.
He knew that compared to Hu Lei, if he appeared as the eighth in the world, he was afraid that he would be regarded as a softer target by the two old foxes.
Although he was safe from his hole cards, it was enough to make anyone who played his abacus smash their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
But his biggest hole card is to beware of immortals, and now he has been dormant for more than ten days, which is not in vain and avoids unnecessary trouble.
As soon as he flipped his palm, only the blood centipede Gu the length of a baby's finger appeared in the palm of his palm, and there was an inexplicable connection with him as if he was connected by blood.
"Go ahead!"
Chen Dengming said calmly, the blood centipede suddenly opened its thin wings like cicada wings, and in a flash of buzz, it burrowed into his right ear according to his wishes, and his body curled up into a ball and hid in his ear, and his breath quickly weakened.
Soon he will face the immortals, in order to prevent the immortals from seeing through people, he has to hide deep enough to hide such big hole cards as blood centipede Gu.
The next moment, he carried a big knife on his back, and used light skills to shuttle quickly through the forest like a big bird gliding, often lifting his breath to rise and fall, that is, more than 20 zhang away, approaching the ethereal cliff, so as to go up the mountain at any time.
Just when many people gathered on the mountain peak, no one noticed that in the depths of the clouds above the misty cliff where the mist gathered, a huge shifting formation between the illusory and the real had already been constructed.
Hundreds of sparkling and shining spars are like stars, with a secret combination of thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two earthly evil numbers, dotted between the formations, forming a huge aerial platform.
On this platform, five figures have also gathered at this time.
Three men and two women, all of whom have outstanding temperaments, are spontaneously generated by the aura of light and rain, which looks mysterious and immortal, so that mortals know that they are immortals at a glance, and they can't help but bow and worship.
However, at this time, the five immortals were talking, as if the prison guards were talking about which new prisoner was more interesting, and there was no fairy spirit in their words, but they were all vulgar and vulgar.
One of the men wearing a square scarf pointed to Shao Yufeng, and said with a flat smile, "Seeing that this mortal is over seventy years old, he has to go to great lengths to participate in the Ascending Immortal Conference in order to compete for an invitation, and he has never brought any family heirs with him, so he is not going to participate by himself?"
At this age, what hope can you have for cultivating immortals? ”
Another immortal old man smiled disapprovingly, "It's good to be old and old, don't divert the topic, I have already made a bet at this time, it's time for you to bet on someone." ”
The man wearing the scarf smiled and shook his head, "This little Nan Xunguo, we are still here for the first time, a hundred years ago, our sect and other sects jointly issued invitations to ascend immortals here, hoping that someone can use martial arts to prove the Tao and walk out of a powerful martial immortal."
But now, the people of this small country are not qualified, the so-called Eight Great Innate and even other old men who are about to die, although the martial arts are exquisite, they have lost their potential, how to cultivate into martial immortals?
It seems that this time they can only choose people with spiritual roots from their younger generations and bring them back to the sect, so I won't bet on this gamble. ”
"That's it!"
At this time, another woman in red smiled calmly and said, "Since He Daoyou, you don't choose, I'll choose one person to bet, and I'll bet that the owner of the tenth invitation card that hasn't yet appeared may be selected and taken away."
The owner of the other nine invitations has appeared, but the owner of the tenth invitation has never appeared, but it is very mysterious, there may be hope, my bet is five medium-grade spirit stones. ”
The delicate melon-faced female cultivator on the side was surprised and smiled, "Five medium-grade spirit stones bet on an unknown mortal? Maybe the winner of the tenth invitation won't show up at all? Senior Sister Luo is really generous, it seems that when Senior Brother Luo proposed marriage to you, he gave a lot of dowry. ”
The old man laughed teasingly, "Luo Daoyou was born in the Southern Regions Spiritual Land, and the bride price of the Southern Regions has always been very high. ”
Everyone in the world is good for immortals, but they don't know that immortals have troubles.
Immortals are also human beings, not to mention the so-called immortals in the mouths of the masters of the Southern Quest Country, they are not true immortals, but just immortal cultivators.
Many grandmasters who have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes on the mountain for many years, who know that they have become gambling horses in the mouths of immortals, and they have been judged by the high-minded.
Their blushing faces and thick necks in the fight seemed to the five immortal cultivators as if the fighting cocks in the circle were fighting each other, which was quite interesting......
