Due to the death of the master of Chumen, most of the disciples in the family who have some sects have switched to other sects, so the income of the Water Moon Sect is declining day by day, and the food of the disciples of the sect is rationed. In this way, Mo Cong can only pick up some leftovers eaten by others and burn them coldly. There have been many times when Mo Cong watched Mo Qiyu and the others throw the meat buns that they couldn't eat in front of him, stomped on them, and then waved at Mo Cong, with a mocking smile on his face, and walked away in a dashing manner. Only Chu Ciken gave Mo Cong a portion of his savings.

Now the situation is very different, Ma Xiaohua will try her best to satisfy Mo Cong's taste, and she also feels happy watching Mo Cong gobble up. Therefore, the two have gotten along like sisters and brothers along the way.

"Xiaohua, don't lie to me! You also know about me, three years later, if I can't go to the Martial God Temple, then the junior sister will be finished!"

"Miss Ben is a good and honest boy who never lies!" Saying this, Ma Xiaohua herself felt a little ashamed, blinked a pair of shrewd and moist big eyes and said: "Don't worry! I promise you with my personality that I won't lie to anyone I will lie to you!"

"Oh!" Mo Cong nodded solemnly. Although Ma Xiaohua was very good to him, he always felt that this sister was a little weird.

In the blink of an eye, he followed Ma Xiaohua for more than two months, and Mo Cong found that this Ma Xiaohua was indeed not simple, not only was the clothes she wore very particular, but she was even more generous, and she followed her all the way to eat and drink, and it seemed that the money on her body would never be spent. And all thanks to an ancient silver ring in her hand, wherever she went, someone would bring shining gold coins to her hands like snowflakes. However, Mo Cong didn't dare to ask more about this, because he knew that Ma Xiaohua was too smart, and what she didn't want to say was in vain. It's just that two months have passed, and it seems that it is still far away from where Ma Xiaohua is going, as for the things in the broken temple, in Ma Xiaohua's own words, it is called "the horse has stumbled"

"Xiaohua, why didn't I figure it out? What are you doing in that place? You don't practice martial arts!"

Ma Xiaohua was very dissatisfied with Mo Cong calling her name, and waved her fist, really wanting to hit Mo Cong's head twice, but whenever she saw Mo Cong's clear eyes flashing and looking at her with innocent eyes, she couldn't do it anyway.

"Don't always call me by my name, how can I say that I am also a few years older than you, at least you should call me Sister Xiaohua, it is really a constant teaching!" Very unhappily scolded Mo Cong, Ma Xiaohua smiled mysteriously, looked at no one left and right, and said softly: "Let me tell you the truth! In fact, that place is called Xianmu Mountain, there is a divine tree in the mountain, and eating the fruit of the sacred tree can make people forever young and immortal," As she spoke, Ma Xiaohua's eyes were filled with infinite longing, she stroked her cheeks, and said very immodestly: "Don't you think that a beauty like me should stay young forever!"

"That's it!" Mo Cong nodded thoughtfully, suddenly looked at Ma Xiaohua, and asked, "Do you mean that after eating the fruit of the Divine Tree, you will never grow up?"

"Of course, after eating it, you will live forever. ”

"But, but I don't want to be a child forever?" Mo Cong looked at Ma Xiaohua very seriously.

"Uh! this, I think" Ma Xiaohua frowned, thought for a long time and didn't say why, and finally perfunctory Mo Cong, said: "Oh! whatever, in short, you can become the number one master in the world after eating." ”

"No. 1 in the world?"

"That's right! Think about it! No matter how high the master is, they will always die of old age one day, and when they all die of old age, won't you become the first in the world?"

"What, I don't want to be the best in the world like that!" Glancing at Ma Xiaohua, Mo Cong's face was full of helplessness, he couldn't figure it out, what was in this Ma Xiaohua's head, but at this time, Mo Cong was full of yearning for the mysterious place that Ma Xiaohua said, and he thought in his heart, "If only Chu Ci was here, then the three of us would never die"

"What do you think? Look at your bad face, is it some kind of ghost idea? Tell you, this is a secret between us, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, do you hear?" Ma Xiaohua looked at Mo Cong and said.

"Oh!" Mo Cong was stunned for a moment, thought about it and looked at Ma Xiaohua with a blank eye, and said, "Xiaohua, can I bring out a few fruits from that tree?"

"It's a beautiful idea, I can't share the fruits of victory with others, hmph, besides, do you think anyone can go to that place? Tell you, there is a sealing door in that place, and you need a spell to open it!" After speaking, Ma Xiaohua smiled proudly, obviously she had already memorized the spell to open the method.

The two talked and laughed, but they didn't feel tired along the way, and unconsciously, they walked to the edge of the martial arts continent. At this time, the road they walked was so desolate that there was hardly a pedestrian to be seen. Seeing that the forest ahead is deep and foggy, the road is difficult and dangerous. The howls of wild beasts continued to be heard in the woods, and the sound echoed eerily in the silent woods, making people shudder and creepy.

Facing such a terrifying place, Mo Cong and Ma Xiaohua had no fear on their faces, and swaggered closer to the dense forest.

Walking to the depths of the dense forest, Ma Xiaohua spread out her old and yellowed ancient map on a large rock, looked at it carefully, and suddenly looked excited, and shouted: "Ha! Sure enough, the emperor lives up to his wishes, and we will arrive through the valley in front!"

"Really!let me see!" After reading Ma Xiaohua's map, Mo Cong was also very excited, "Great, it's finally here!"

The two naïve and naïve fellows shouted as if they had discovered a new continent, and ran all the way through the forest, until dusk when they reached the strength of the dense forest, and they did not want to, but they were blocked by two mountains.

The two big mountains in front of you, the peak is ten thousand thousand, the absolute peak, the cliff will be on the cliff, the strange cypress hangs upside down, there is a tall archway standing at the mouth of the valley, because the people have not seen the traces for a long time, the archway is full of vines and roses. Among the messy branches and leaves, a huge horizontal plaque with black characters on a white background is clearly visible, with four big characters engraved on it: "Famen Desperate Situation", and the two sides of the plaque are vibrating with Taiji Yin and Yang diagrams. There is another couplet on the stone pillars at both ends.

"A wisp of clear qi shocks the demon and evil, and two immortal runes suppress the ghost" Mo Cong read aloud, looked up at Ma Xiaohua, and said, "Xiaohua, I think there is an ominous aura here!"

At this moment, it is the sunset, the yang energy in the dense forest is falling, the yin energy is rising, when Mo Cong looks into the valley, a deep path winds into the valley, the dense fog between the two mountains is shrouded, and there seems to be an illusion fluttering, unpredictable, strange noises are heard in the valley from time to time, and I can't help but feel a little uneasy.

"Don't be suspicious, those who do big things are not afraid of heaven and earth, they are afraid" Ma Xiaohua frowned and thought hard for a long time, then suddenly looked at Mo Cong and asked, "Do you know what you are most afraid of?"

"I don't know!"

"I'm most afraid of not having perseverance!"

"Makes sense!"

Mo Cong nodded, and suddenly found that there were two stone tablets standing in front of the ancient stone archway, on which there were two unknown stone beasts crouching, the beasts opened their teeth and danced their claws, the image was realistic, and it seemed to have the meaning of jumping up and driving the fog.

Mo Cong looked into the valley, stepped forward to look at the small words on the stone tablet on one side, and said in horror: "Xiaohua, it seems that something is not quite right here!"

"What are you afraid of? Coward!" For Mo Cong's warning, Ma Xiaohua, who was full of fantasies, didn't care, and read out the big characters on another stone tablet aloud, "Trial-Trial-Valley" After reading these three words, Ma Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, but when she came back to her senses, her face was pale, her legs were trembling, she hurriedly hugged Mo Cong, and her voice trembled: "How did we get here!"

"You said it was okay just now!" Mo Cong stabilized his mind, looked at Ma Xiaohua, and said, "Otherwise, let's go back!"

"No, it's all here, how can there be any reason to go back!"

"Then, let's go another way!"

"Stupid, there is no other way to go!" Looking at the high mountains, Ma Xiaohua gritted her teeth and said.

"Uh!" Mo Cong heard this, looked at Ma Xiaohua with a bitter face, and said, "What should I do then? This doesn't seem to be the place we should come to!" Looking at the gloomy black mist in the Valley of Trials, Mo Cong felt that his whole body was bubbling cold.

"Don't be afraid, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Ma Xiaohua turned a pair of shrewd big eyes, reinvigorated her spirits, and walked around in front of the stone archway with great strides, her mind racing. Suddenly stopped, fiddled with the branches and leaves on the stone plaque, looked at Mo Cong and asked, "Mo Cong, do you know what kind of place this is?"

"I seem to have heard Master say it before" Mo Cong thought for a long time, although he had a little impression in his mind, it was a little vague.

Seeing that Mo Cong was speechless for a while, Ma Xiaohua's face was full of pride, and she said with a smile: "It seems that you really just came out of the mountain gate, heh! Let me tell you! This martial arts continent is not as simple as you think, do you know what the name of the city when we met?"

"I don't know!" Mo Cong shook his head again and again, looking at Ma Xiaohua with curiosity in his eyes, at this moment, Ma Xiaohua looked unusually tall in his eyes.

Ma Xiaohua took out the food she brought with her, placed it on a clean stone, and beckoned Mo Cong to say, "Come here, let's talk while eating." ”

"Oh!"

The two sat on the ground, while eating, Ma Xiaohua looked at Mo Cong with a smile and said: "You just came out of the mountain gate, and you still don't know anything about this world! I really have to teach you a good lesson, let me tell you this, our world is called the earth!"

"Earth?" Mo Cong was stunned, for the first time in his life, he knew that the world under his feet was called Earth.

"Yes, you don't even know this?" Ma Xiaohua's face was full of surprise, she shook her head and said: "Alas! It seems that you don't know anything except martial arts, a long, long time ago, probably tens of thousands of years ago, there were people like us on the earth."

"Ah, tens of thousands of years, so do they also practice martial arts?" Mo Cong became more and more curious, and looked at Ma Xiaohua with unblinking eyes.

"Hmm" Looking at the clouds in the sky, Ma Xiaohua thought for a while and said: "I heard my father say that they don't practice martial arts, but they can make weapons, which are very powerful weapons."

"Wow!" As soon as he heard that it was a very powerful weapon, Mo Cong hurriedly said: "Let me tell you the truth, Xiaohua, my master has a big gun, which is said to be very powerful, I don't know if it was made by those ancients you said." ”

"Oh! can you listen to me finish talking before you speak!" Ma Xiaohua glared at Mo Cong and sneered: "What you said is not relevant at all, the weapon I said, bang!" Ma Xiaohua raised her hands, "The martial arts continent is gone!"

"One, all of a sudden, gone?" Mo Cong grinned, feeling a little incredible.

"yes, right?"

"Awesome!" However, the more Mo Cong thought about it, the more wrong it became, and asked, "Since they are so powerful, what about those people?"

"It's all blown up!" Ma Xiaohua spread her hands and said disapprerovingly.

"Everyone is dead, what's the point!" Mo Cong looked at Ma Xiaohua helplessly.

"Snort! Say you don't understand anything! If they don't die, how can we still have us? However, listening to my father, those people should be called "Ma Xiaohua thought for a long time and said, "That's right!

"Ancestors?"

"yes! Forget it! Forget it! It's all in the past anyway, so let's talk about the present. ”

"I think it's the same, I don't understand what kind of ancestors you are talking about. After thinking about it, Mo Cong suddenly asked, "Xiaohua, I came out of Shuiyue Mountain, and you never told me, where did you come from!"

"Hehe!" The dimples on Ma Xiaohua's face flashed quickly, and she looked serious again, and said: "Mo Cong, in fact, in addition to the Wulin Continent on the earth now, there is also a magic country and several barbarian tribes, but their territory is only a small place. Also, the city we met was the southernmost border town in the Wulin Continent, so at the emperor's order, all the major sects sent people to garrison there, and there was Shuiyue Mountain on the border, and those barbarians were also vulnerable, so now it has become a gathering place for all major sects to show off their strength. ”

"Oh! No wonder that place is so lively!" Mo Cong seemed to understand a little, nodded and said, "Master often says that the Martial Arts Continent is a magical world, it seems to be true!"

"Then you don't need to say!" Looking at the big-eyed boy in front of her, Ma Xiaohua was secretly proud in her heart, "Hehe, it's finally over!"

"Xiaohua, I heard that the Medicine King is the first generation head of the Medical Immortal Sect, and he has long since retired to the rivers and lakes, where did you meet him?" Mo Cong suddenly asked.

Ma Xiaohua was caught off guard, looked at Mo Cong in a daze for a long time, and said, "Why did you ask about the Medicine King again? Now we are talking about this valley." ”

"Didn't you divert the subject?" Mo Cong rolled his eyes and whispered.

"Hee-hee, I'm just trying to let you know better. Ma Xiaohua smiled wryly, and said: "As far as I know, hundreds of years ago, this place was an ancient battlefield, it seemed to be a battle between several major martial arts families, one of which was what door, what method was opened, summoned the magic beasts, and laid out the magic beast array here, however, it has been hundreds of years, it is estimated that those magic beasts have long been killed by people, and now there are nothing more than a few ordinary beasts, not so terrible," Ma Xiaohua was full of nonsense for a while, pointed to the valley and said: " If you don't believe it, why haven't a single demonic beast escaped after we've been in it for so long?"

"Hey, you're right!" Mo Cong looked back, although the valley was full of mist, but he didn't see any strange beasts, thought about it, turned his head to look at Ma Xiaohua, and said: "But I just looked at the small words under the stone tablet, which says that only people who have reached the level of 'Imperial Soul' can enter this valley if they have reached the level of 'Imperial Soul'!

As a person who practices martial arts, Mo Cong knows very well what the "Imperial Soul" level represents. In the Wulin Continent, after tens of thousands of years of inheritance, martial arts cultivation has been perfected, and it can basically be divided into three stages: physical cultivation, soul control, and soul. Among them, physical cultivation is divided into three stages: primary, intermediate and advanced, each stage has ten layers, and each level is very difficult, and it is already very good to reach the highest level of physical cultivation. As for the martial artist of the "Imperial Soul" level, hence the name, it is to get rid of physical strength and control soul power, and the lethality of soul power is beyond human imagination. "Imperial Soul" is divided into three stages: fighting soul, fighting soul, and soul breaking, and the combination of three soul powers can be called "Imperial Soul". In the entire Martial Arts Continent, there are only a handful of martial artists who can reach the level of "Imperial Soul", since it is clearly written on the stone tablet that only people at the "Imperial Soul" stage can set foot in this valley, there must be a reason for it.

After being silent for a moment, Mo Cong looked at Ma Xiaohua timidly, and said with a smile: "Xiaohua, you take me to the Medicine King first, and then accompany you when I have practiced martial arts, anyway, it is immortal, it doesn't matter if you wait a few more years!"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaohua immediately sank her face, full of displeasure, glared at Mo Cong and said, "Is this your attitude towards girls?"

"However, it should be very dangerous in there!" In order to avoid going to death with Ma Xiaohua, Mo Cong rolled his eyes and said carefully: "Xiaohua, is there something wrong with your map?"

"How is that possible, this map was discovered by my father, who liked to study ancient things the most. At the mention of her father, Ma Xiaohua's pretty face was unusually proud, and her eyes also showed brilliance.

"I hope your father is not mistaken!" Mo Cong casually pinched a blade of grass and flipped it back and forth in his mouth.

"You don't have to be verbose, let's think about it!"

Ma Xiaohua, who was deep in thought, had a calm face, a pair of big eyes like a quiet deep pool, silky long hair was blown up by the wind, and the white clothes embroidered with golden silk threads set off the girl's plump breasts. In the golden light and shadow of the setting sun, the girl's beautiful figure shines brightly, and it looks even more graceful, and it looks like an elf flashing in the forest from a distance.

"Little flower, you look as beautiful as an elf now!"

Along the way, Ma Xiaohua was happy and didn't like to be quiet, but now seeing this situation, Mo Cong was shocked and blurted out.

"Is it? What else? Tell me about it!" Hearing Mo Cong's praise, Ma Xiaohua's delicate face immediately brightened, and the adventurous spirit buried in the girl's blood was rejuvenated, how could the dream of eternal youth isolate a small valley "Since you say so, then I have an idea!" The essence flashed in her eyes, and a strange smile appeared on Ma Xiaohua's face.

Seeing this, Mo Cong secretly complained to himself, grinned, and said, "It won't be another horse that has stumbled!"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaohua immediately raised her willow eyebrows, glared at Mo Cong, and asked, "Do you want to continue cultivating?"

"Think"

"Do you want to see Chu Ci again?"

"Think"

"Shut up if you want to!" viciously scolding Mo Cong, Ma Xiaohua strode towards the Valley of Trials.

"Xiaohua, what did you think of?" Mo Cong chased forward and walked side by side with Ma Xiaohua, asking with doubts in his eyes.

"My solution is simple!"

"What?"

Stopping, Ma Xiaohua pointed to the valley in front of her, smiled mysteriously at Mo Cong, and said, "Walk through this valley." ”

"You're crazy! Don't die!" Mo Cong looked the beautiful girl in front of him up and down, bowed his head and said, "If you want to go by yourself, I won't go with you." ”

"Don't pull it down, coward, don't say you're my friend in the future!" Ma Xiaohua looked displeased, shook off Mo Cong, and strode into the valley

"This guy is crazy!"

Seeing the girl's charming figure gradually being annihilated by the thick mist, Mo Cong muttered to himself. At the moment when Ma Xiaohua passed through the black fog, the black fog shrouded in the valley began to churn, like countless ghosts shuttling back and forth, flying up and down, and in the dark, Mo Cong's ears seemed to hear the devil's hideous laughter.

"Come back, little flower! it's too dangerous there."

Even though Mo Cong shouted out his throat, Ma Xiaohua never came out of the valley

"No, I have to pull her back, and I must not watch my friend die. ”

Mo Cong was calculating, and suddenly, Ma Xiaohua ran out of the valley, his face was very excited, he shook his arm and shouted loudly: "Mo Cong, come quickly!"

"Ahh

"Mo Cong, let me tell you, it's not that scary at all!"

Mo Cong didn't have time to react quickly, but he couldn't help being dragged into the valley by Ma Xiaohua.

Through the thick and terrifying black fog, when I first entered the valley, I saw that the cliffs on both sides were like knives and axes, which were steep and abnormal, and the clouds on them were swirling, and the old trees and branches appeared and disappeared from time to time. After walking a short distance, the scenery in front of you is suddenly open and extremely wide. It turned out that the two mountains were just natural barriers, and they surrounded a paradise of paradise. The area in the valley is very vast, there are countless large and small hills, the grass color in the mountains is diffuse, the clear water is leisurely, and several waterfalls penetrate the clouds and mist, pour down, pour green and scatter jade, converge into a pool. There are faint wisps of music fluttering down from the distant sky, which is even more intoxicating. Looking back at the valley mouth, the thick black fog suddenly turned into a white mist.

"Wow! this place is much more beautiful than Shuiyue Mountain!" Seeing this beautiful scenery, Mo Cong was excited, and at this time, he had already forgotten the three terrifying words of "Trial Valley".

"Look! I say it! Ji people have their own natural appearance, it is estimated that those strange beasts will only haunt at night, let's hurry up, we should be able to pass through before dark!" Looking at a touch of clouds in the sunset, Ma Xiaohua's face was full of complacency.

"Well, it's better to be careful!" Mo Cong said cautiously. Seeing that the dream of re-practicing martial arts is about to become a reality, the young man's heart is also very happy.

"Yes!"

Ma Xiaohua is a head taller than Mo Cong, her pretty outfit matches her perfect figure seamlessly, very individual and unassuming. Although those big eyes full of charm always flashed with unusual brilliance, at this time, Ma Xiaohua in Mo Cong's eyes was almost perfect.

The breeze blows the ancient road, sending bursts of flowers, and the scenery in front is becoming more and more gorgeous, like a dream, with a fantasy color. The two high-spirited teenagers didn't know that on the road they were taking, they didn't know how many unjust souls they had sent away.
