The others were silent, though they were silent.

But from the changes in the qi between each other, it can be seen that the atmosphere at this moment is much more harmonious than before.

Although the two sides are far from the level of complete mutual trust, the five Qingye are no longer a thief-proof posture towards "Qi Huangzi".

Qing Ye asked, "Is the anomaly in the Wumeng Sea and Kurosawa Plains also like this?" ”

"Qi Huangzi" nodded: "Well, yes." ”

"Did you find it yourself, or did you find it from a lineage or some kind of text?"

"I found it." "Qi Huangzi" said without thinking.

At first glance, it seems that it is most appropriate to give this answer to "inheritance" or some other source, rather than discovering it yourself.

But the principle upheld by "Qi Huangzi" in his heart is that if he can tell the truth, try not to tell lies.

Even if you use some words and let the other party make up for it by yourself, it is better to lie on the hard side.

"How did you find out?"

"Qi Huangzi" asked rhetorically:

"Didn't you already believe that the number of abnormalities in the three third-order demons of Tianqi Mountain, Wumeng Sea, and Hei Zeyuan was caused by me?"

Qing Ye nodded slowly, and said thoughtfully, "So, you discovered such an anomaly in the process of searching for the third-order demon?" ”

"Qi Huangzi" nodded.

There was a thoughtful look in Qing Ye's eyes, and after a while, he asked:

"The altars that exist in the Umeng Sea and Kurosawa Plains should be located in a hidden location, right?"

This is an easy judgment to draw, if the location was not hidden, they would have discovered it a long time ago.

Qingxuanzong has some sect tasks for the three major evil veins every year, and after accumulating year by year, Qingxuanzong has the most comprehensive information about the three major evil veins.

That's why Qingye is so sure.

Qi Huangzi nodded: "Yes." ”

Qing Ye said: "Then it must have taken a lot of effort to find them, right?" ”

"If you find something in one of the evil veins, it can be said to be luck, but if you find it in all three evil veins at the same time, it is not luck that can explain it."

"Qi Huangzi" bowed: "Yes, it did take me a lot of energy. ”

"So ......"

Saying that, Qing Ye paused and looked at "Qi Huangzi".

"I'm really curious, what is it that makes him want to invest so much time and energy in this?"

Qing Ye looked at "Qi Huangzi", his face was full of curiosity.

Here is a truth that does not need to be proved—for monks at their level, seeking the Tao is more important than anything else.

It's possible to relax with boredom once in a while, but never put a lot of time and energy into it.

Because people who uphold this attitude can't reach their level at all, even if they are really cultivators and talents, this has been personally verified by countless geniuses who have broken their wings in the middle path.

And this is also what makes Qing Ye wonder.

There was not just one, but two places that puzzled him.

Why did "Qi Huangzi" spend so much time and energy to hunt so many third-order demons in Tianqi Mountain, Wumeng Sea, and Kurosawa Plains?

The corpse of the third-order demon was certainly valuable as a raw material, but it was also for the other Yudan monks.

Their road to knotting Dan may have just begun, at least there are still many roads ahead of them that have not been completed, and they must use the steps built by external resources to move up step by step.

But for those of them whose cultivation has reached the end of the knot, these third-order demons are no longer qualified to use them as "steps".

There is no point in investing too much time and energy into this.

It can't be to contribute to other people in the "Qihuangmen", right?

Or is it to do good deeds for the Qingxuan Sect, or the monks of the Qingxuan Domain, or the kind that does not leave a name in the dark?

Isn't that!

How to think how unreasonable!

And this is just the first layer of doubt in Qing Ye's heart.

As Qing Ye said, "Qi Huangzi" inadvertently found an abnormal altar in such an activity, and it is reasonable to say that he found all three altars located in Tianqi Mountain, Wumeng Sea, and Hei Zeyuan, and this "hit rate" is really a bit too outrageous.

You must know that this altar is not only hidden in its own position, but it cannot be inspected with a wide range of abilities such as divine sense, and only visual or near-visual methods are effective.

The radius of Tianqi Mountain is more than 20,000 li, the Wumeng Sea is more than 30,000 li, and the Kurosawa Yuan area is more than 40,000 li......

What's the difference between this and looking for a needle in a haystack?!

"Qi Huangzi" obviously also understood what Qing Ye was wondering about, if he couldn't dispel their doubts on these two points, then Qing Ye and the others would have very limited trust in themselves.

He smiled: "To put it bluntly, it's actually very simple, the first altar I found was this one in Tianqi Mountain, which is purely a coincidence."

And the two of them, the Umeng Sea and the Kurosawahara Plain, are the harvest after I purposefully searched. ”

Qing Ye nodded.

"And secretly cut off the number of third-order demons, one is by the way, and the other is that I do have the heart to help you reduce the burden, I hope that the beast tide can be calmed down quickly."

Qing Ye nodded again, but the doubts in his eyes were not completely eliminated.

On the one hand, he could judge that "Qi Huangzi" did not tell a lie, but on the other hand, "Qi Huangzi"'s answer still failed to relieve the doubts in his heart, but added more confusion.

"Qi Huangzi" looked at Qing Ye, and then at the other four people who were also in deep thought, and laughed.

"I know what you're worried about, and there's nothing you can't say.

The reason I did this was simple, because I had an inextricable knot with the Sect of Hatred.

Since I have discovered such a secret related to the Sect of Departure, of course I have to investigate it to the end. ”

"This is also the reason why I will secretly take action and cut off a large number of third-order demons.

Since there is such a secret arrangement, or it comes from the hands of the Lihate Sect, I hope that the attention of the Qingxuan Domain cultivation world will not be entangled by this beast tide for a long time, and the sooner it is freed, the better. ”

Qing Ye nodded, thinking of some of the investigations that the door had done on the "Qihuang Gate".

The conclusion of the investigation also confirms that the "Qihuangmen" is indeed very incompatible with this sect of hatred.

Now it seems that the contradiction between this "Qihuangmen" and the Sect of Separation and Hatred is even greater than they originally thought.

This is not a bad thing for Qingxuanzong.

At this moment, the old man Qingyao on the side looked at "Qi Huangzi" and said:

"Many years ago, Xuan Yuan had submitted a list to the sect, and all of the dozens of strongholds operated by the Hate Sect in various parts of the Qingxuan Domain were on it.

As far as I know, the source of that list came from the hands of your apprentice 'Ge Ping'. ”

"This should have been done at your behest, right?" Qing Yao asked.

Qi Huangzi nodded: "That's right." ”

As he spoke, he sighed a few times and said, "You have done your homework enough, and this kind of thing has been dug up by you...... What else do you know? ”

After listening to his answer, "Qi Huangzi" could obviously feel that there was a significant change in the attitude of several people towards him.

Also, that intelligence sharing almost completely uprooted the operation of the Lihate Sect in the Qingxuan Domain for many years.

Moreover, if Qingxuanzong hadn't taken the initiative to expose it, "Qi Huangzi" would obviously not have brought up this matter again.

If this does not prove the camp tendencies of "Qi Huangzi", then there is really no one in this world who can be trusted.

And after listening to the question of "Qi Huangzi", Qingye did not hide it, and said:

"We also suspect that the person who intercepted and killed Yanzhuang in the Gray Mist Mountain Range back then was also from the handiwork of your 'Qihuangmen'."

He didn't say that it was from "Qi Huangzi" himself, because through time back, the battle scene restored, although the strength of the handler was extraordinary, there was still a significant gap from the peak of Jiedan.

In their judgment, it should be the backbone of the "Qihuang Gate" who has cultivated to the peak of the eighth layer of the Jiedan, or who has just entered the ninth layer of the Jiedan.

was provoked in person, "Qi Huangzi" flashed surprise on his face, and finally nodded helplessly:

"It's really about me, but ...... Don't publicize this, but remember to keep it a secret from me! ”

Seeing him respond like this, Qing Ye also showed an obvious smile on his face, and nodded: "Don't worry, except for a few of us, no more people in the sect know about this matter." ”

Speaking of this, he showed a playful look on his face and teased:

"It turns out that we are still a little puzzled, since you 'Qihuangmen' have such a ability, why are you still hiding it so tightly?

Even back then, when everyone fought for these third-order spirit lands, you could all hold back and not rise to the top.

Now I understand that one has a mortal enmity with the Lihate Sect, and on the other hand, he also has a vendetta with the Star Palace.

You can't go up or down, so don't you have to hide it tightly?! ”

In the face of Qingye's ridicule, "Qi Huangzi" shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Talking and laughing casually all the way, Qing Ye suddenly said:

"Ah, it's here."

Under his control, the ship broke out of the Gangfeng layer, and an endless sea appeared in front of the ship.

Seeing that the spaceship, which had always remained invisible, was rapidly entering the sea area, "Qi Huangzi" suddenly said:

"Mingnan Daoyou is in retreat here, do you want to inform him as well?"

Qing Ye asked, "Is that place far away from Qianling Island?" ”

"It's far away, more than 10,000 miles in a straight line." "Qi Huangzi" said.

"Then don't inform him, let him meditate in peace."

“……”

Yes, as long as you don't know, it is equivalent to not existing, and the ancestor of Mingnan will not be worried because of this, and he will have to worry about sitting on the powder keg every once in a while.

From this point of view, Qingye knows how to persuade people.

"Qi Huangzi" nodded.

Then, under his guidance, the stealth spaceship sped through the void for a while, and then quietly sank into the water.

Since the spaceship entered the waters, the operator of the ship has changed from Qingye to Qingzhan.

The entire spaceship is completely integrated with the surrounding water environment in a way similar to a water escape.

The ship moved forward quickly, slowly sinking, the light from the sky getting dimmer and the waters getting darker and darker.

A depressing darkness.

This feeling is even more intense as the ship falls into a dark trench.

Finally, the spacecraft landed at the bottom of the trench.

"Here we are."

"Qi Huangzi" said softly.

There was no need for more reminders, a few people didn't even get off the spaceship, and a water mirror light curtain appeared in front of several people.

With the help of Qing Ye's eyesight, an identical altar appeared in the light curtain.

The Retrospective Circle Light Array Disc in Qing Ye's hand had been destroyed, and Qing Yao drove a piece of his collection into the top of the altar through the water mirror.

With the activation of the Time Rewind Array, the time images in the altar area returned, as if the altar, which had always remained in one state, finally changed at some point.

Once again, the idol of the god of hatred came out of the censer.

Meng Zhou's attention was not on the statue of the god of hatred, but mainly on the array that was suspended above the altar and "drowned" by the statue of the god of hatred.

Meng Zhou was surprised to find that this time, under the "soaking" of the Statue of Leaving the Hateful God, the array disk was decaying at a faster rate.

Tianqi Mountain took out the altar, and the array disk was completely shattered after being completely retraced twice.

And this time, the array disk was only completely retraced once, and the second retracement was completely shattered before it was halfway through.

Meng Zhou was surprised in his heart.

"Why is this happening?"

The thoughts in his heart were flying, and after comparing the differences between the two altars of Tianqi Mountain and Wumeng Sea, Meng Zhou had a vague immature guess in his heart.

"The harvest cycle of Wumeng Sea is shorter, while the harvest cycle of Tianqi Mountain is longer, is it related to this?"

With such doubts in their hearts, the group quietly left the Wumeng Sea, and came to Kurosawahara under the guidance of "Qi Huangzi", directly plunged into a huge swamp, and quietly submerged into it.

Along the way, everyone was silent.

Each of them had mixed thoughts surging in their hearts.

"Here we are." "Qi Huangzi" reminded softly.

Soon, Qing Zhan had already cast the Water Mirror Technique again and erected it in front of everyone.

In the water mirror, an altar stands quietly.

The array plate in the hands of Qing Ye and Qing Yao has been destroyed, and Qing Tang is about to take out his array disk.

Qingfeng, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "I'll come." ”

After that, without waiting for Qingtang to respond, he took two steps forward, stood in front of Qing Zhan, the closest position to the water mirror among all the people, and then threw a retrospective circle light array disk into the water mirror.

Under the display of the water mirror, everyone saw that the array disk appeared above the altar, and then, the array disk was activated, enveloping the entire altar.

The images of time in the altar area begin to rewind rapidly.

After a seemingly motionless image, a brilliant color suddenly shot out of the incense burner and projected into the air, and the array was once again "drowned" by the phantom shadow of the statue of the god of hatred.

At this moment, Meng Zhou suddenly felt that his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and in the sea of consciousness, the quiet and waveless soul pool also suddenly rippled.

A palpitating chill felt in the body and mind at the same time.

Meng Zhou's heart was immediately shocked, this was obtained from the soul technique "Sincere Heart", and then after many evolutions, it finally merged with the Minor God Channel's heart Tongming.

"Be careful!" He quickly interrupted.

Not to mention Qing Feng himself, everyone else was shocked by his sudden voice.

Qing Feng, who was controlling the array plate, was even more interrupted by this sudden shout, and turned his head suspiciously.

Meng Zhou said in a deep voice: "If it's just to verify the authenticity, this step is enough!" ”
