Volume 1: Forsaken Land Chapter 22: Zhao Hengdao
The two of them looked around, feeling the rich spiritual power of heaven and earth in the air around them, and suddenly a strange thought suddenly arose in their hearts, if they cultivated here again, I am afraid that it would not be long before they could break through the bottleneck.
As soon as this thought arose, a beast roar suddenly came from the forest, faintly with a tyrannical meaning, the two glanced at each other, and seemed to be able to feel the thoughts in each other's hearts, "This is the subordinate place of the three major immortal gates, and it doesn't seem to be a good place, let's be careful, hurry up and find the location of the Wind Rift Valley!"
Kong Laosan said with some caution, his voice was much lower, as if he was afraid that the surrounding demon beasts would hear it.
Hearing this, Yu Hongzhi didn't dare to slack off, and took out a scroll from the package on his back, "We should be here now, the red line on the scroll is the Wind Rift Valley, two days should be enough!"
Yu Hongzhi pointed to the marker on the scroll, said with a smile, and after determining the route, the two immediately identified the direction of the debate and drilled towards the forest.
As a subordinate place of the three major immortal gates, the formation covering the surrounding area is mainly to prevent secular mortals from stepping in, and it has no power at all, and it is precisely because of this that the two of them were able to enter. Of course, there will naturally be no natural treasures in the outer area of this Burial Demon Mountain, and if you want to talk about danger, it is just that some demon beasts are more tricky.
These low-level demon beasts were originally used for the assessment of the disciples in the sect, although they were a little dangerous, and they would not hurt their lives under normal circumstances, but Kong Laosan and the two naturally did not know the doorway, and the two of them stopped and stopped cautiously all the way, and after killing the three demon beasts that were not strong along the way, they finally came to the Wind Rift Valley marked on the map in the evening of the next day.
The Wind Rift Valley is no different from its surroundings, but it is that there are many huge stones in this place, which are not known to be caused by the perennial impact of flowing water or strong winds, and the ripples on them are continuous, the smallest is less than the size of a palm, and the largest is the size of three houses, and it is scattered around in such a mess that it looks like a natural environment formed after the collapse of a stone mountain.
Kong Laosan and the two looked around and saw that there was no danger around, so they breathed a long sigh of relief.
"The strength of the demon beasts here is not strong, but there are too many of them!"
Yu Hongzhi said with some gasp, and as he spoke, he took out some elixirs to restore spiritual power and swallowed them, while Kong Laosan sat cross-legged and sat down, running the exercises.
"Let's find a place to hide first!"
After a while, Kong Laosan looked around and said softly.
When the sky was about to darken, the two finally came to an inconspicuous cave, saying that it was a cave, but it was actually a large boulder, and the bottom was cut out by some fierce beast A small hole, although the space is limited, but it is more than enough for the two to enter it.
Just after noon on the third day, Kong Laosan, who was closing his eyes and crossing his knees, seemed to feel something, his eyes opened, his brows furrowed and looked towards the void outside the cave, as if he was imprisoned by something, a faint sense of depression arose, and Yu Hongzhi on the side seemed to feel something, his face changed, and he took out two pieces of rune paper from his arms.
"Sticking this rune paper on your body in half an hour may be of some use!"
Yu Hongzhi said with some uncertainty, took the talisman paper, Kong Laosan took a look, and also recognized that the talisman in his hand was a rare low-level stealth talisman in the immortal cultivation world, but it is still unknown whether this kind of talisman can be concealed from the detection of the foundation building powerhouse.
"Didn't you say that with Senior Brother Li's help, this place is safe?"
Kong Laosan asked with a faint hint of bad in his heart.
"That being said, but the person who came here to investigate is after all the foundation building powerhouse of Qinglingmen, so we should be careful!"
Yu Hongzhi's face was a little pale, I don't know if he was scared or lacking confidence, Kong Laosan heard this, but he didn't politely put the rune paper into his arms, no matter what he thought in his heart, at least he remained calm on his face.
Sure enough, just half an hour, just after the two of them pasted the talisman paper on their bodies, it was just a cup of tea, and a fine divine thought power swept through the two of them like a breeze. At this moment, the two of them didn't dare to come out, if they looked from the outside, there was nothing in the stone cave, and there was no figure at all. The invisibility talismans on the two of them are also mysterious, unless they are observed with the spiritual eye technique, they can't see anything at all with the naked eye. However, Kong Laosan clearly felt that when the power of divine thought swept over the two of them just now, he paused vaguely, which made Kong Laosan's heart a little worried.
After refining the seventh layer of qi, under the condensation of the cultivator's Purple Mansion Divine Soul, he will produce divine consciousness and stimulate divine thoughts, which is also an indispensable condition for controlling the spirit soldier flying sword spell. Divine thought is also known as spiritual power, with the increase of strength, divine thought will spontaneously grow, it is said that some powerful powers can kill people invisibly with divine thoughts alone, but such an existence is too far away for today's Kong Laosan and the two.
After about a meal, after a total of three waves of divine thought power were scanned, the two of them breathed a long sigh of relief.
"The man is gone, right?"
Yu Hongzhi asked cautiously, and after half a pillar of incense, he saw that the surroundings were calm, and the two of them in the cave pinched the trick, and the hidden spirit talisman on their bodies directly turned into ashes, and the figures of the two reappeared in the cave.
The light around was a little dim, but it could still be seen that the faces of the two were a little pale, "After dark, we will go to the first-line cliff, this time the task of the Zhao family kid is to go to the first-line cliff to pick a spiritual object called stone mushroom, we just need to find a chance to kill that kid!"
Yu Hongzhi laughed twice, and said that he hesitated a little here, "But that kid's strength is not bad, Zhao Lao'er was one of the best among the inner disciples of Qinglingmen, if it wasn't for the fact that he put his mind on a woman later, I'm afraid that now he has the opportunity to impact the rumored Jindan, presumably there must have been a lot of means left for the Zhao family boy, we have to prepare early!"
The two of them said, and before they knew it, the sky had darkened, and the Wind Rift Valley was not far from the first-line cliff, but due to the frequent appearance of fierce beasts at night, the two of them spent a lot of effort all the way, and finally came to the first-line cliff at dawn.
The environment here is slightly different from the Wind Rift Valley, surrounded by rugged mountains and rocky cliffs, and there are many cliffs, because Kong Laosan had learned some civil engineering techniques at the beginning, and now it is suitable to use it here, and the two of them began to prepare after coming here.
Three days later, as the spiritual power of the surrounding heaven and earth fluctuated slightly, Kong Laosan and the two understood that the test of the children of the Qinglingmen family had officially begun, and the two of them found a hidden position at the foot of the mountain to hide, carefully paying attention to the surroundings.
The boy of the Zhao family is named Zhao Hengdao, it is said that he is extremely talented, and now he has reached the realm of the seventh layer of qi refining at a young age, perhaps because of his father's inheritance, Zhao Hengdao has a hot temper, even if the selection of Qinglingmen disciples is still like this, and he came here in a hurry.
Kong Laosan and the two of them silently paid attention to the surroundings behind the mountain rocks, and after a while, some young children in gorgeous clothes hurriedly passed by, these should be the children of the family who participated in the selection of Qinglingmen disciples, even the weakest ones have the realm of the third layer of qi refining, and they have more or less some foundations.
The children of these families are inextricably linked with Qinglingmen, these so-called tasks are to put it bluntly, that is, the form of walking, of course, it is easy to become a disciple of the outer door of Qinglingmen, but it is extremely difficult to become a disciple of the inner door, just like Zhao Hengdao picked a kind of heaven and earth spiritual material called stone mushroom this time, this kind of task is extremely simple, as long as the demon beast guarding the spiritual material is lured away, even if Kong Laosan himself uses some means, he is sure to complete the task.
About two hours later, Yu Hongzhi's pupils shrank, "It's here!"
As soon as the voice fell, I saw a man in a gray robe walking slowly from a distance, with messy hair, an animal skin wrapped around his waist, and a large knife stuck in his back, looking no different from those good hands in the world.
said that he was a man, but he was actually only fifteen or sixteen years old, but because he had not cut his beard for a long time, he looked a lot older.
It's just that Kong Laosan and the others are strange, why didn't this person put a big knife on his back into the storage bag, but exposed it like this?
Just when Kong Laosan and the two were quietly hiding their figures, Zhao Hengdao, who was originally striding over, suddenly sensed something, suddenly turned his head and glanced at the location of Kong Laosan and the others, snorted coldly, his cuffs shook, and before the two of them could react, a yellow flying knife was already speeding towards the two.
"Click, boom......"
With a loud cracking sound, Kong Laosan and the others dodged from behind the rocks to both sides in embarrassment, and the boulder where they were originally hiding had been torn apart. Kong Laosan's face was a little ugly, and he unconsciously glanced in the direction of Yu Hongzhi, but saw that Yu Hongzhi also had a solemn face at this moment, and there were a few more rune papers in his hand, which were thrown out like money.
