Chapter 266: Space Circle
"It's foggy here, hold on to the rope and don't let go."
Senior Brother Xun took out a thumb-thick rope from his waist, grabbed one end, and handed the rest to Zhao Lin, while earnestly admonishing everyone.
Zhao Lin took the rope, handed it to Tong Mu, and passed it to each person in turn.
Senior Brother Xun nodded, turned around and walked forward, leading everyone forward.
The white fog was filled, and after only a few dozen steps, the fog was already so thick that you couldn't see your fingers.
Although Zhao Lin couldn't see with his eyes, he could clearly perceive the weeds and stones on the ground, the slopes on both sides, and the trees on the mountain by relying on the ultrasound waves released, and he didn't feel panicked.
"It can actually blind the eyes and ears, and the formation is really mysterious!"
But the others were not as calm as him, one by one clutching the rope, breathing heavily, sweating on the top of their heads, and taking every step carefully.
Even so, there are still people who stumble and fall from time to time, but fortunately they get up in time and no one is left behind.
Senior Brother Xun walked briskly, completely unaffected by the white mist, walked for a while, suddenly turned around, and said with some surprise: "Senior Brother Zhao is so bold, he can be so calm even if he can't see the road." ”
Zhao Lin deliberately kicked a stone and shook his body, "With senior brother leading the way, there is nothing to be afraid of." ”
The three mountains on the island appear to stand side by side from a distance, but they are actually in the shape of a zigzag, and the middle mountain is located in the very center of the island.
Fortunately, the island is not big, and the group walked for half an hour and came to the foot of the mountain.
"Attention, we're going up the mountain."
Senior Brother Xun reminded him and walked towards the mountain.
Everyone couldn't see anything, only felt that the steepness under their feet was abnormal, and they couldn't help but be frightened, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air.
And the further you go up the mountain, the more viscous the fog becomes, not only is it white in front of you, but your ears can't even hear the voices of the people in front of you, and you almost become blind and deaf.
The ultrasonic wave released by Zhao Lin could only detect the distance of three zhang square, and he couldn't help but be surprised, thinking that there was this magic circle here, even if the Yuan Realm martial artist came, he would not want to climb to the top of the mountain.
I don't know how long it took, Senior Brother Xun suddenly stopped, and when he pulled hard, everyone felt that their hands were loosened and the rope was pulled away.
Everyone was about to exclaim, but suddenly their eyes lit up, and everywhere they looked, suddenly opened up.
Senior Brother Xun laughed, "It's time to reach the top of the mountain!" ”
"Hey, the white fog is gone."
"Alas, a heart has finally landed......"
Everyone looked around and found themselves standing at the top of the hill with a flat open field at their feet.
At a glance, it turned out that the mountain was only a dozen zhang high, and the mountain was gentle, which was completely different from the imaginary cliffs.
"Senior Brother Xun, it's been a long time!"
There was a loud laugh in front of him, and a Taoist priest wearing a green robe and gray hair walked up, followed by seven teenagers.
Senior Brother Xun strode up and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a year, and Senior Brother Sun's demeanor has not diminished. ”
The Taoist priest surnamed Sun laughed at himself: "The hair is all white, where is there any style?" It's Senior Brother Xun, your cultivation has improved again. ”
After greeting for a while, Senior Brother Xun asked, "Senior Brother, where is Senior Brother Qian?" ”
Senior Brother Sun shook his head and said, "It's not there yet, but it should be soon." ”
It turned out that there were three groups of people......
Zhao Lin thought that Cheng Huazong's arrangement was mostly out of consideration for not putting his eggs in one basket, and he was really cautious.
Among the seven teenagers brought by Senior Brother Sun, there were four boys and three girls, and the two sides looked at each other.
He Shaoqun was not afraid of life, and took the initiative to ask, "You are also new disciples, right?" ”
A tiger-looking teenager on the opposite side took a step forward and replied, "Yes." ”
"My name is He Shaoqun, what about you?"
"Huwe ......"
The two asked and answered, and gradually became acquainted, and the rest of the teenagers also joined in the conversation, and after a while, they got together and talked and laughed.
However, no one talked to Zhao Lin, they all thought that he was a garrison monk, and Zhao Lin did not take the initiative to speak, but only listened to their chat.
Zhu Cong suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Where is my father?" What about my mother? Senior brother, why didn't you see them? There was a cry in his voice.
Senior Brother Xun stopped talking, turned his face and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, the magic circle was opened once yesterday, and someone has already led them to the Xuanyuan Continent." ”
"Mortals have special living quarters, and they are not in the same place as you, so they take different flying boats."
Zhu Cong wiped his tears after hearing this, and was silent.
After chatting for a while, Senior Brother Sun suddenly raised his hand and pointed into the distance, "Senior Brother Qian, they are here!" ”
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, they saw a group of seven people walking from the direction of the beach.
The leading Taoist priest saw the crowd on the top of the mountain from a distance and waved his hand to this side, while the six teenagers behind him nervously grabbed the rope as if they were blind.
The teenagers thought it was funny, but when they thought that they were the same just now, they couldn't laugh anymore.
It seemed like a short journey, but the group walked for half an hour, until the sun was about to fall into the sea, and finally reached the top of the mountain.
The young Taoist priest breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and apologized: "Qian is late, so the two senior brothers have been waiting for a long time. ”
Senior Brother Xun and Senior Brother Sun both smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not time yet." ”
The personnel of the three parties gathered, and Zhao Lin silently counted in his heart, there were a total of twenty disciples.
If you find twenty disciples with spiritual roots in a year, it will take you a hundred years...... Two thousand people.
The reason why this calculation was made was because the lifespan of a Qi Refining Realm cultivator was at least one hundred and twenty years old.
In other words, if nothing else, a hundred years later, all the teenagers present are still alive.
In one hundred years, 2,000 monks were selected from one world, and Chenghua Sect had nine small worlds under its jurisdiction, which was 18,000 people.
Although this calculation may not be accurate, it should not be an order of magnitude different.
Drawing this number, Zhao Lin couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
This is only the monks who came out of the nine small worlds, if you count the monks of the Chenghua Sect, the middle and lower grade spiritual roots of the descendants of mortals, and the monks who have cultivated to the foundation building realm, their lifespan has greatly increased.
How many monks do you have to accumulate in a hundred years?
It was getting dark, and the disciples were a little hungry, so they took out the dry food and water they had brought to eat.
As he approached, the three Taoist priests glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.
"There are no other mortals on the island, and there are no ships nearby, so you can start."
As he spoke, Senior Brother Sun took out a half-foot-long piece of yellow paper from his waist pocket, and the disciples immediately stopped talking and looked at each other.
Zhao Lin had the best eyesight, and saw runes drawn on the paper that looked like mountains and rivers, the shape of heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, although he couldn't understand it, he had a sense of profound and mysterious.
Senior Brother Sun smiled and took the initiative to explain: "There are two magic circles on the island, one is a phantom array, preventing mortals from entering this place, you have all seen it just now. ”
"The second one is the space array, which is usually not opened, and there is only an invisible node mark."
As he spoke, he raised the yellow paper in his hand, "This is the Escape Light Guide Talisman, which can fly to the other side of the circle through the node." ”
"When the monk on the other side receives this talisman, he will open the circle and send a flying boat to pick you up."
