There is no sun and moon in the mountains, and it depends on the changes of the sky to know the clues.

It's summer in the blink of an eye, and the flowers are blooming all over the mountain, and the greenery is immediately soaked in almost every corner. It's just that on the summit of the eastern mountain system of the Heavenly Rift Valley, there is still snow and ice.

Yu Ci stood on the edge of the cliff, looking far away, and all he saw was the vast clouds, and there was no edge in sight. There is also the sound of the wind, whistling like the sound of the tide of the sea, pushing the clouds and squeezing the fog, slapping the rock wall under the feet, as if to roll the people on the cliff into this boundless sea of clouds.

Isn't this the boundary between heaven and earth?

Knowing that this idea was ridiculous, Yu Ci still couldn't help but think like this. For from the place where he stood, thousands of miles stretched from north to south, and it was like this, and the front seemed to be endless. This is what he has measured from his own legs and feet for months, and there is no falsehood.

This section of boundless cliffs, although there are also concave and convex mountains, but in the vast area that is thousands of miles long, it is as smooth as a mirror, like a sword of the gods, dividing the earth in half.

"Heavenly Rift, Heavenly Rift...... I wonder if there will be a day when this sea of clouds disperses, so that I can see the whole picture of this valley?"

It's a normal idea, but during this time, he has gone back and forth on the boundless cliff hundreds of times, and no matter how cloudy the weather is, he has never seen the sea of clouds disperse......

It has been five months since Yu Ci arrived in the Heavenly Rift Valley, and during this time, he has been busy every day, and there is hardly a moment of leisure. Yu Ci had the same experience, and there were tens of thousands of nearby medicine pickers, who also came for the shrimp and whiskers, or more precisely, for the considerable reward promised by the White Sun Mansion.

The White Sun Mansion is a first-class powerful force in the Cliff City, an important town in the Boundary Mountain Range, firmly controlling the vast area within a radius of 10,000 miles of the Cliff City, and it is not known how many times stronger than the Twin Immortal Sect that Yu has treated kindly.

Ten years ago, the White Sun Mansion issued a long-term mission: to purchase the shrimp whisker grass unique to the Heavenly Rift Valley without any restrictions on age or quantity, and set up a heavy reward for it.

There are gold and silver, real estate, treasures, and elixirs in the rewards, which infinitely stimulates the dreams of all kinds of people around them. In the past ten years, countless medicine pickers, Jianghu guests and even ordinary people have flocked to the vicinity of the Heavenly Rift Valley, regardless of the height of the mountains and the bottomless abyss, climbing up and down the cliffs, gambling their lives in order to obtain the treasure in their hearts.

Yu Ci is also one of them, he wandered to the Cliff City half a year ago, and at a glance he took a fancy to the reward promised by the White Sun Mansion, that is, a unique sword weapon built by the craftsmen of the mansion: the Sanyang Fu Sword...... This sword has the strengths of both runes and weapons, and its power is secondary, and what is more valuable is the idea of its forming, which may be an excellent reference for Yu Ci's rune progress that has fallen into a bottleneck.

And in exchange for a three-yang talisman sword, a thousand shrimp beard grasses are needed.

So Yu Ci also joined the ranks of the army of medicine pickers. There are more than 20,000 miles from the cliff city here, and the road is a full month, and it is another five months to look for medicine, so it is conceivable that there must be longer days to spend here.

"A thousand plants...... It may not be possible to complete it before the arrival of winter. ”

Waving away these miscellaneous thoughts, Yu Ci calmed down slightly, and then leaned towards the edge of the cliff, facing the blowing wind, he slightly blinded his eyes, so that his mouth and nose breathing were cut off, and the true qi in his body immediately operated spontaneously, slowly adjusting the rise and fall of qi and blood, and when the state of his body reached a high level, he suddenly stretched out his hand, probed in the void, and then wiped it in front of his nose, and the sealed nasal passage was also opened at this time.

This is a wind-chasing technique, which is a miscellaneous science that Yu Ci learned when he was wandering around. Attracted by the wind chasing technique, the mixed smell penetrated, and then it was divided into categories by his mind, such as panning for sand and gold, and in a blink of an eye, there was a result...... Yu Ci opened his eyes and grinned, "Good luck today." ”

With a smile on his face, he jumped down.

The Heavenly Rift Valley is torn apart by the power of heaven, and the elders do not see its end, and the deep ones do not see its bottom. Yu Ci didn't find the beginning and end of this valley, and naturally he couldn't find out the depth of this valley. He jumped from the edge of the cliff, and in the blink of an eye he was pierced into the mist, and the shadows of the branches and strange stones that crossed the cliffs flowed past him.

With a little bit of strength on various obstacles, Yu Ci descended more and more slowly, and finally spotted a mountain rock beam protruding from the cliff wall, and fell lightly on it. Here, the unique aroma of shrimp grass is getting stronger, but it will take some time to confirm the exact location through the fog.

Stayed on the stone beam for half an hour, and the surrounding fog showed no sign of dissipating, but Yu Ci had already locked on to the target, and he didn't hesitate at the moment, his calf exerted force, and his body shot towards the side of the dense fog like an arrow.

Borrowing strength on the cliff wall, he swept across the distance of seven zhang in a blink of an eye, as he predicted, there was no obstacle in the middle, in the mist, the image of the giant pine standing obliquely between the rock crevices became clearer and clearer, Yu Ci slid up against the rock wall, and gently landed at the root of the tree, his movements were as light as a cat......

As it fell, a strong wind blew in the canyon, and the strong wind made the giant pines creak and make the surrounding fog flow rapidly.

Yu Ciyun used his eyesight, and through the fog barrier that became lighter, he was very pleased to see that at the front end of the giant pine trunk, within the layers of pine branches, there were dozens of hair-like shadows, rising and falling, as if they would be torn off by the wind in the next moment, but more of them were still wrapped around the trunk and branches.

That's the shrimp beard grass.

Yu Ci must thank his biological parents, who gave him a talent beyond ordinary people. It's the extraordinary sense of smell he used before. He has a natural sense of smell, he can distinguish the complex smells that are mixed together, and he can also notice the subtle breaths that ordinary people ignore, and he has relied on this talent a lot on weekdays, and in the Heavenly Rift Valley, he can rely on this talent to accurately find the location of the shrimp grass up and down in the boundless clouds.

The goal is close at hand, and Yu Ci's mind is becoming more and more stable. He didn't rush forward to pick it, but took out the Bronze Treasure from his sleeve, stimulated the Qingguang Spiritual Guide, and drew talismans in the void.

The charmer, the five-color flow is condensed into a text, mixing all truths, always controlling the gods, and taking the potential of the clouds and stars...... There are cloud seals and thunder texts, dragon chapters and phoenix texts, and demon patterns and ghost patterns, all of whom are taken like the sidelines, and think that they are used for the gods.

For more than ten years, Yu Ci studied the way of talisman day by day, and the "Shangqing Juxuanxing Secret Talisman Sutra" rolled out of the Twin Immortal Sect was his only source of systematic knowledge. Although there are nearly 1,000 kinds of talismans on the rune book, he is now proficient in only a dozen kinds, but he is already familiar with the various descriptions in the book.

The Shangqing Juxuanxing Secret Charm Sutra records a total of three sets of talisman systems, namely the cloud seal Leiwen, the dragon chapter and the phoenix scripture and the demon diagram ghost pattern. Among them, the cloud seal and Lei Wen are the nature of the yin and yang of the heaven and the earth, the dragon and the phoenix are inspired by the agility of the birds and beasts, and the demon pattern is borrowed from the witchcraft and the fierce power of the ghost road.

These three sets of talisman systems can all form their own pattern, but the truly wonderful talisman is to combine the three parties and take their essence.

It's a pity that Yu Ci can't cultivate and don't practice deeply, even if he has a good spiritual source like Zhaoshen Tongjian, he can draw those ghost talismans meticulously, but he still can't attract the power of those high-level talismans. He could only learn some relatively simple and pure, single-system-based runes now, like the one he was using now......

The hand guides the blue light and draws an extremely abstract figure in the void. The upper one is a bird pattern, the lower one is a tiger pattern, and the surrounding columns are divided, and the center is finished with a bent seal pattern. When all the runes were drawn, the blue light lines residing in the void lit up, and then quickly condensed and shrunk, until they became a delicate rune the size of half a palm, and then they froze.

Yu Ci stretched out his hand and pointed, and this talisman immediately flew out. The flight trajectory is very peculiar, it is based on Yu Ci's fingers as the axis, flying out of the circle, the circle is getting bigger and bigger, and the talisman is flying farther and farther, until it is completely submerged in the dense fog, Yu Ci withdraws his hand.

This is a five-party psychic talisman, and it is one of the most complex talismans at this stage that Yu Ci learned from the "Shangqing Juxuanxing Secret Talisman Sutra". Although it is based on Longzhang Fengwen as the main body, it also slightly involves the system of cloud thunder and demons. With this one character, Yu Ci practiced for five years before he could barely apply it.

This talisman does not have any attack power, but it can use himself as a reference to detect the violent activity of a qiē creature within a radius of five miles, and feed back into the soul of the caster, which is incredibly sensitive, and Yu Ci uses it as a warning.

As soon as the preparations were completed, Yu Ci stepped forward...... As if walking on a lone bridge, slowly come to the top edge of the giant pine.

Shrimp grass is already available by leaning over. Yu Ci was not in a hurry, and then took out the prepared stone box from his sleeve, and carefully placed it in a recess formed by the interlacing of several pine branches at hand, which was a naturally formed stable platform, but Yu Ci was still not at ease, and then fixed it with a talisman, which was the end.

Then he leaned down and carefully picked the shrimp grass.

The blades of grass are only the thickness of a hair, and when they are wrapped around the trunk of a tree, they become entangled with the uneven bark and tear apart if you are not careful. Because of the medicinal demand, the roots must be taken down together when picking, so Yu Ci must sort out and untie the intertwined grass leaves one by one until the roots are found, and then they can be pulled out.

This kind of work is completely a water grinding effort, which tests patience and is most afraid of accidents.

Fortunately, Yu Ci's luck today is good. For more than three hours, without any external disturbance, Yu Cishun picked this piece of shrimp and whiskers, which was roughly intact, with about 100 roots. Pick and put it away, and put it one by one into the stone box on the side.

As he said to Xuanqing that day, the shrimp beard grass can absorb the aura of Yimu and restrain the golden qi, so it cannot be contained in metal or wooden boxes...... You can only use the stone box issued by the White Sun Mansion Administrator. In the stone box, the shrimp grass has been tiled with a shallow layer, and there are three or five hundred roots, which is all his harvest in the past four months.

These herbs are taken back to the head of the Bairi Mansion, and they must be carefully divided according to the quality and intact Cheng Dù, and the value must always be discounted by three or two, as for the discount, it is naturally the Bairi Mansion to laugh at it. This is the usual practice, and a loose person like him is helpless.

After doing this, the sky has darkened, and the half-set sunset has weakly shone the afterglow into the clouds, Yu Ci put away the stone box, collected all kinds of spells, and climbed the hundreds of feet of mountain wall like an ape with those horizontal side branches and Taoist rock gaps, and when he reached the cliff, the strong wind blew, only to know that the middle coat had been soaked with sweat, and the coolness was soaked, and it was definitely uncomfortable.

That's all for today. Yu Ci was also tired, so he found a leeward place, breathed for a while, and waited for his clothes to dry, and then he left, and after a few longitudinal falls, he disappeared into the reckless mountains behind him.

For more than five months around the Heavenly Rift Valley, Yu Ci's foothold also changed at any time, and the place he had arranged in advance yesterday was more than 100 miles away, and it would take nearly an hour to go back and forth on the road alone......

But it's still worth running these roads, in the past few months, Yu Ci has seen more than once that the people who come here to collect medicine, because of a few shrimp grasses, meet each other in battle, and rest until death, their ferocity and tragedy, without personally participating in it, it is hard to imagine. The vulgar man dies for wealth, and the bird dies for food, and that's it.

Yu Ci is not a person who is afraid of things, but since he has a hard day, he naturally has to find a safe place to rest and recuperate, where does he have so much spare time to deal with those who are not greedy enough?

After entering the Mangcang Mountain Forest, the night quickly fell, and the vision became darker and darker, but the speed of Yu Ci's leap did not decrease at all. The unique breath of the mountains and forests blew in front of his nose, and he could distinguish the hidden and approaching danger from the mixed smell of thousands of smells, and changed lanes in time, not knowing how much trouble he avoided.

Seeing that the destination was in sight, Yu Ci was stunned, and then slowed down.

Where he was, the trees had become sparse, and in their place were craggy rocks, black and thin, and the night was desolate. Because of this, a few miles away, a cluster of bonfires, can pass through the gap between the trees, flicker and shake in his eyes, clearer than the firelight, is the "human smell" blown by the mountain wind, in addition, although extremely weak, Yu Ci can still capture the unique aroma of shrimp grass......

If it is through the stone box, Ren Yuci has great ability, and it is impossible to smell the wisps of smell at this distance, so there is only one possibility, that is, someone opened the stone box and observed or counted the shrimp grass stored in the box.

Yu Ci can be sure that there are more than fifteen people over there. If the owner of the stone box can do this without any scruples, then this group of people should be a group, and they come here to pick herbs together. On the side of the Heavenly Rift, it is a relatively large-scale team.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but scratch his head. He could have bypassed, but the bad thing was that the hideout he had put so much effort into yesterday was not far from the crowd, and if he did, he would probably be sleeping in the wilderness tonight.

Just thinking about it, his face changed slightly, just against the wind, he didn't notice it, and seven or eight people approached on the side, only half a mile away from his location. He retracted his left hand into his sleeve and pinched the bronze sword of the gods.

It's really unfortunate that two days ago, he was robbed by someone, and the best sword bought with hardware in the cliff city was broken in the battle, and he lost the sharp weapon in his hand, and he was afraid that he would suffer a loss in the encounter again.

Soon, however, his sensitive nose picked up some information: it seemed to be an acquaintance!

The characters over there finally discovered Yu Ci as well. Even in the dark of night, it is only two or three breaths, and it is convenient for the two sides to take a look. The group of people who were coming out of the forest were stunned, and the atmosphere became tense at any time. Soon, though, someone on the other side started laughing.

"Ha, Brother Yu, I haven't seen you for many days, and your complexion is not bad. ”

Sure enough, it's an acquaintance. Before the other party spoke first, Yu Ci relied on the breath of those people to identify it. The person who opened the mouth is called Lu Bing, and he is the leader of this group of people, that is, a few months ago, outside the barren mountain, the one who knocked on the door frame of the empty door, is a particular person, and Yu Ci has a good impression of him.

Lu Bingben is a Jianghu guest, with the cultivation of the peak of long-term rest, and his body is full of real power, and his strength can give birth to cracked tigers and leopards. In addition to the lack of spiritual response, there is no substantial gap with the realm of enlightenment, and it is also quite famous in the rivers and lakes. This time, he also took over the task of Bairi Mansion, entangled more than a dozen colleagues, and came to the Heavenly Rift Valley to collect medicine, which is a rare team combination here.

After everyone met by chance that night, they have been together for a few days, and they have some friendship with each other. Yu Ci took two steps forward and hugged his fists and smiled: "Brother Lu, there are still ...... of you."

As he spoke, Yu Ci glanced at it, and saw that the number of people in the team was less than half of the original, and his brows furrowed.

Those who are not there are probably more than lucky.

It is not easy to pick shrimp and grass, and you must always be careful of the wind and fog up and down the cliffs, and beware of poisonous insects, birds of prey, fierce beasts, etc., if you are not careful, you will end up with no bones. What's more, how can the Heavenly Rift Valley be a place for simply collecting medicine?

As he spoke, the two sides got closer. Lu Bing saw his thoughts, but a high-roller like him had already looked down on life and death, so he just laughed and diverted his attention:

"Brother Yu, it's better to meet than to meet by chance. In front of the firelight, we have met a group of brothers recently, all of whom are cheerful people. This forest is pitch black, and it's not interesting to walk alone, so why don't you get together together?"

Yu You's preset place was occupied, and he was worried about how to arrange it at night, so he pushed the boat down the river and agreed. However, his left hand kept gently pinching the edge of the bronze sword, always keeping a little guarded, and he thought the same would be true for the other party.

After a few months in the Heavenly Rift, people who don't have the slightest thought are probably dead.

Don't forget to collect before you leave, of course, it's best to add a positive red ticket!
