Chapter 404: Keeping the Word
The two of them stopped, and looked around again, only to feel cold and cold, but there was nothing, and even on the top of the lonely mountain in the middle of the air, not even a trace of wind could be heard.
In this world where spirits gather, there is a deathly silence in the eyes, and the living walk in it is empty, and they will feel a little uncomfortable, so after a moment of careful observation, seeing that there is nothing unusual, the two of them continue to move forward.
Soon, he disappeared into the dark jungle.
As soon as the figure entered, he felt that the ghost light in front of him was shining, and the jungle was full of strange trees that were bent and vigorous, as if they were petrified, all of them were dark and green, and the surface was extremely smooth, and it looked like there were branches and no leaves.
Under the shade of the trees, there is grass like a sword, and the whole body exudes a dull green light, shining on this forest, obscure, like entering the netherworld.
In the grass, there are butterflies, which look quiet and a little lively, completely different from the loneliness and coldness outside.
The two took a few steps inside, but quickly discovered the problem.
In this place, the sword grass is like hemp, and it grows very luxuriantly, and the forest is as deep as the sea, but there is no way out.
After all, this soul is just a phantom, stepping on the grass, like walking on the ground, but Su Mai and the others can't be so relaxed, I don't know how many souls are hidden in this forest, if you go with the sword, it will be easily exposed.
"How to go?" Su Mai looked back and forth, a little confused.
With his cultivation, he naturally can't step on the grass and go, and this clump of dark green in front of him is half a person high, and if he wants to pass, the easiest way is naturally to get in.
"I'll go take a look first!" Ye Xue thought for a moment before continuing.
"Be careful!" Su Mai paused and replied.
Ye Xue's cultivation is far superior to him, and he is not reckless at this moment, so Su Mai will not stop him.
Yexue nodded, and then her figure flickered, swept into the grass, and flew away.
As far as dozens of zhang away, except for startling a few butterflies, nothing happened, and further on, it was the same, it seemed that these souls seemed to have gone to the depths of the forest.
"It doesn't seem to be very dangerous!" Ye Xue turned around again, and his figure was undecided, and he said to Su Mai.
"That's good!" Su Mai kept staring at the movement in the forest, but he didn't see anything wrong.
"Let's go, time is running out!" Ye Xue looked at the talisman paper attached to Su Mai's shoulder, and with a wave of her long sword, she pulled Su Mai forward and swept forward.
Since there is no danger for the time being, it is naturally easier than burrowing into the grass and skimming through the grass.
However, after the previous tosses, Yexue itself consumed a lot, and at this moment, with Su Mai, it was also a little reluctant.
After running forward for nearly a hundred zhang like this, there was not much difference in the objects in front of him, except for some more soul objects that were alarmed, the thousands of souls in the legend were still missing.
"Yexue, do you think we're going to go in the wrong direction?" Fu ran for another ride, and Su Mai couldn't help but ask.
"Let's take a look!" Ye Xue didn't stop, and he answered, and ran forward for a while, but suddenly paused.
"Su Mai, look!" Ye Xue lightly slowed down, pointed ahead, and said urgently.
"Is there a road?" Su Mai looked at the situation, but saw that not far ahead, there was a path that came from nowhere, but stretched out to the depths of the forest.
"Go over and have a look!" Su Mai exclaimed excitedly.
The two of them soon reached the top of the path, and there were still strange trees on both sides
, but the glowing sword grass seems to be getting less and less.
"Could it be that they are all going to this forest?" Su Mai looked inside, the forest in front of him was dark and cold, and the blood moon passed through countless intertwined branches, shining on the path, faintly visible red and green intertwined light and shadow, mottled and paradoxical.
"Be careful, go in and see!" Yexue put away her long sword, let out a deep breath, and walked forward.
The two of them walked one after the other, sneaking along the path towards the forest, and within half a step, they saw that Yexue suddenly stopped and stopped.
Su Mai was about to ask a question, but saw Ye Xue suddenly make a look and motioned him to silence, and then, the two of them found a nearby tree, covered their figures, and looked forward.
After a while, I saw two phantoms floating over.
"Did you hear that, it's going to be hilarious this time!" one of them said lightly.
"I heard that it was said that the Great Luo Hades King of Jingtian Lake wanted to recapture the Lonely Mountain!" another replied.
"The water from the wells of the Floating City and Jingtian Lake does not interfere with the river water, but I don't know what the Da Luo Hades King is doing this time!"
"I heard that the Great Luo Hades King came prepared this time, many years ago, he seems to have been the lord of this lonely mountain!"
"Things don't seem to be so simple, there is news that the Qianye Mulberry seems to have been snatched by the Great Luo Hades King!"
"Could it be that he also wants to be reincarnated?"
"With his cultivation, naturally he wouldn't do such a stupid thing as rebirth, but I don't know what he wants to do?"
"Tonight, most of the people who go up the mountain are here for the lotus, and he occupies this thing, can't he be the enemy of the soul he does?"
"I don't know, I heard that the King of Guangliu is also on the mountain!"
"We can't understand the affairs of these big people, just join in the fun, don't take advantage of it, but lose your soul!"
"That's just as well!"
......
The two ghosts talked as they walked, completely oblivious to the fact that not far behind them, there were two living people.
I don't know if it's the carelessness of this yin soul, or the effect of the black talisman that returns for a long time, anyway, the two of them followed silently all the way, and walked for about a quarter of an hour, but there was no accident, but they learned a lot of information from the mouths of these two yin spirits.
It turned out that outside the village that is the same as the ruins of Qingcao Lake, is Jingtian Lake, and this Daluo Hades King is the lord of a lake, a long time ago, it was originally entrenched on the lonely mountain, and the Guangliu King of the floating city was equally famous, and then I don't know what happened, I was expelled from the lonely mountain, ran to the mirror sky lake, and then every hundred years of flowers blooming night, I will take the soul boat to cross the lake, but every time after entering the mountain, I don't know where to go, this time, but for some reason, it was a big fanfare, rumors to recapture the lonely mountain.
I don't know where the path leads at the foot, perhaps because the thousand leaves of the wood lotus have appeared, most of the yin spirits who have entered the top of the mountain have arrived, Su Mai and Yexue have traveled all the way, delayed a lot of time, and they have been blocked in the belly of the mountain, so when they enter it, they have already gone to the forest sky, but fortunately, there are two yin spirits who heard the news and brought them a ride.
For fear of being discovered, the two of them were cautious all the way, and they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, until the ghost disappeared at the end of the road not far away.
The two first hid for a moment, and after seeing no movement, they reappeared and chased after them.
The trail ended here, and what appeared in front of the two of them was a dark and dreary abyss.
I couldn't see any light, and I didn't know where it was below, as far as the eye could see, but the abyss was as deep as the sea, and there was nothing as far as the divine sense could reach.
Those two ghosts
, where did it go?
The two looked at each other, but could not find a trace.
"So ......?" Su Mai's face was dark, and he stretched out his hand and pointed into the boundless abyss.
"Shall we go down?" Although Yexue was a little puzzled, but the matter had come to this point, it was impossible to retreat from the battle, even this was at the bottom of the abyss, and we had to go and explore.
"How?" asked Su Mai casually.
"Jump down!" Ye Xue suddenly smiled when she heard this.
"Hey...... , I would like to!" Seeing this, Su Mai also smiled bitterly, and then said, "You say...... What could it be down here?"
"Then you don't need to ask, it's naturally the hiding place of the Chiba Mulian!" Ye Xue continued.
"I don't know how big this thousand leaf lotus is, if we jump down, will we be caught by that lotus leaf?" Su Mai suddenly thought.
"I have also heard a little about this thousand leaf lotus, its leaves are like a basket, black and white flowers, when it is in full bloom, there is a strange fragrance in the wilderness, and the sound of singing can be heard faintly!"
"The sound of chanting?" Su Mai suddenly remembered what the old man had said in the square outside the village.
It is rumored that this thousand leaves of the lotus is something that the Buddha sat on, so could it really be that there is a provenance?
"But it's just a rumor, this lonely mountain, I'm afraid that since the legend, few people have come, this night of flowers, there are few living people here, whether this is really the case, it is not known. ”
"It seems that we have to go down and take a look!" Su Mai was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then continued.
"It's better for me to go down and explore first!" Seeing this, Ye Xue said again, her cultivation has also suffered a lot of damage right now, and if she takes Su Mai with her, it will be even more dangerous.
"No, it's too dangerous down here, and if you go down, you're likely to get into trouble. Su Mai shook his head, thought about it for a while, and then said: "There is a way, maybe you can try!"
"What's the way?" Ye Xue's face moved, and he said hurriedly.
"Split the soul!" Su Mai stroked the sword in his hand and slowly said two words.
"Split the soul, isn't this a long-term return technique?" Ye Xue said in surprise when she heard this.
"He left this spell on me!" Su Mai paused and continued.
"Didn't you say before that after ** was occupied, you didn't know anything, so how did Changgui pass on this spell to you?"
"He left a seal in my dantian, I didn't notice it when I first woke up, and I only noticed it later!" Su Mai responded, he didn't know how Changgui left this spell in his body.
"I remember that Changgui said that he would not let you suffer, come to think of it, I'm afraid that's it!" Ye Xue pondered for a moment and nodded.
"It seems that this person is true to his word!" Su Mai smiled.
"He's not human!" Seeing this, Yexue replied, and then continued: "However, your risky actions this time can be regarded as rewarding!"
"This spell seems to be a soul technique, but I don't know what it will be like if I use it!" Although Su Mai knew this method, he had never seen it, let alone used it, so he was also a little worried in his heart.
"Let's try!" he paused.
Seeing this, Yexue was also very curious, so she took a step back and stared at Su Mai to see what he did.
Su Mai took a deep breath, put his finger on his eyebrows, and didn't see any movement, but after a while, he saw a phantom shadow escaping from his body, looking like a soul out of his body.
"Alright......" Su Mai opened his eyes and watched the phantom drift away.
The night snow on his side, a look of surprise.
