Three days later.

Under the leadership of Dusty Sky, all the selected disciples left the mountain gate area of the Xianyang Sect and stopped in a canyon.

Chenkong stopped, swaying lightly at the group of children who were about to leave home, many of these immortal cultivators had grown up watching Chenkong watch, and now they wanted to see them leave with their own eyes, and they couldn't help but feel melancholy in their hearts.

"After leaving this canyon, you will leave the mountain gate realm of this sect, and you will take one last look at the Xianyang Sect. ”

Everyone wept silently when they heard this, but they all said goodbye to their relatives and friends one after another.

Yes, out of this canyon, it is difficult to have the opportunity to come back to visit, Zuo Hu exhaled lightly and glanced back at the way he came.

Sure enough, his mother didn't show up to see him off.

Zuo Hu tightened the bag that was straddled on his shoulders, feeling a little lost in his heart.

But he doesn't blame his mother, whether he gives it or not, he has to leave in the end, so why bother to increase his sadness. The hardships and tribulations that we will experience in the future will require a strong heart to face. "Maybe that's what my mother was going to teach me. ”

The breeze floats in the thin shirt, and the left guard looks a little lonely.

Dusty Sky saw all this in his eyes, and sighed to himself and felt helpless. I thought that this pair of mother and son is really incomprehensible, the son is as stubborn as a donkey, and the mother has obviously come to see him off, but she doesn't show up, I really don't understand. Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, the corner of his eye glanced at the cliff bushes not far away, and then ignored it. After all, this family's mother and son, why bother with such idleness. Shaking his head, he began to beckon everyone to set off.

On the road that Zuo Hu was staring at, there was a vein of cliff trees in the southeast, and the branches were swaying in the wind, revealing Hao Yue'e in a purple shirt. She looked at the back of the person who was walking slowly at the end of the crowd, and she was already teary-stained.

She wiped her cheeks, but her eyes were reluctant to lose her son's every move, so she watched silently, watching Zuo Hu drift away. And I seem to have aged ten years in an instant.....

When Zuo Hu and his party walked to the mountain pass, Chenkong raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, facing the wind of the mountain pass, he played a few magic decisions in the void, and a palm-sized black token appeared with a shake of his palm, and suddenly the clouds and rain in the mountain changed, and the scenery began to show a whirlpool state distorted;

This Immortal Yang Sect was opened up in a spatial enchantment with spiritual veins, which made the sect transcend the mortal world, and clearly divided the ruling realm from other sects, and became self-contained. This kind of spatial enchantment formation must be blessed with the mana of an immortal cultivator who has cultivated above the Dan stage. Therefore, the strength of a sect's mountain protection formation also represents the strength of the person with the highest cultivation in that sect.

The token in Chenkong's hand is a token to open the mountain protection array, and only those who hold the token can freely enter and exit the mountain gate.

Seeing that the sect array was opened, Dusty Sky was the first to step into the blue light cave, and then his faint voice came from the blue brilliance.

"Hurry up and keep up, the leading messenger of Chiba Palace has been waiting for a long time. ”

Zuo Hu left the Enchantment Mountain Gate for the first time since he was born, and stepped into the blue light with the senior brothers with curiosity, only to feel that his eyes were blank, and his head was a little dizzy by those halos, and he hurriedly used the little spiritual power in the condensation period to rush, more or less dissipated a lot of discomfort, and slowly groped his way forward with the back of the dusty air.

After about half a cup of tea, I saw the figure of the dust disappear into a white light, and then Zuo Hu did not enter the white light, and then the vision began to become clear. But as soon as he took half a step forward, Zuo Hu felt that his body was a little unstable, and he stumbled, and he had a feeling of falling downward.

Oops!

Shocked, he knew that this was going to fall, but before he could react, he stood firm again.

Stabilizing his body, the left guard looked at his feet, a cloud and mist happened to float below him, but seeing that the dust was standing on a cloud, he shook the dust from time to time, summoning clouds one after another, catching the disciples who almost fell. Through the clouds and mist under his feet, there was a faint glow of water.

It turned out that the exit of the barrier was actually here in the lake or the sea! When his eyes swept over the water under the clouds, Zuo Hu was stunned, and he saw a person standing on the water.

Yes, a person, just like that standing on the water out of thin air.

He was dressed in a short black shirt, with an off-white mask covering his face, and a flaming red maple leaf hanging from a gray-white ribbon around his waist. The arms and hands were wrapped in black leather armor, which shimmered in the sunlight.

In short, this is a person whose whole body is shrouded in off-white tones.

At this moment, he was looking up at the group of people on the left side, and the pattern on his mask made him look like he was smiling strangely.

A leading messenger from Chiba Palace!

Left Guardian guessed the identity of this person.

"The people of Chiba Palace are dressed so strangely...."He secretly scolded himself.

Dusty Sky had already noticed the messenger below, shook the dust lightly and smiled, and led his disciples to ride the clouds and slowly fall on the water, standing face to face with the man in black.

Don't look at the dust and the wind smiled lightly at this time, in fact, he was secretly frightened, just when he stepped out of the door of the enchantment, his divine sense was released, hoping to determine the position of the leading messenger as soon as possible, so as not to be sluggish, but the divine sense swept around but found no trace of anyone, thinking that the messenger was late, but the naked eye swept the water to find the strangely dressed man in gray.

The divine sense could not find him, which meant that the other party's cultivation was stronger than him, but just now, judging from the mana fluctuations on the man in black, he was in the same early stage of foundation building as him. The cultivation is comparable, but the divine sense is higher than him, which shows that this person has strong combat power and profound spiritual power.

Standing closer, Zuo Hu noticed that the leather armor on the arms of the man in black had a layer of protrusions like crocodile skin. The armor on the back of the hand was covered with black sharp thorns. He stood there like a monster in human form, and when he didn't move, he didn't even feel like he was a breathing creature.

"I think Your Excellency is the leading messenger of the Chiba Palace, and the Xianyang Sect has lost its distance, and I hope to forgive my sins. ”

The other party's strength is very strong, in the world of cultivating immortals, strong people will be respected, plus he represents the Chiba Palace, so the dust does not dare to slack off, first of all, he sues himself and reports himself.

The man in the black shirt bowed slightly.

"In the Lower Chiba Palace, the envoy who is responsible for recruiting the immortal pawns of the Xianyang Sect into the palace this time, because the task is on, it is inconvenient to reveal the identity, please don't mind the elders. ”

Probably because of the mask, his voice sounded like it was coming out of the gourd, which made the strange feeling of the man in black a little stronger, which made Zuo Hu, who had been observing from the back of the crowd, frown slightly.

"Why are the people of Chiba Palace so weird?"

I have long heard that there is a special kind of monk in the Chiba Palace, they often carry out secret missions, all their information is confidential, and the exercises and combat skills they practice will not be easily known. They don't even let people see their faces, let alone give their names.

This kind of institution composed of special monks is called the Dark Sect.

Dust Hollow muttered in his heart, and the voice used by the other party to speak was obviously changed. He doesn't have a real voice, his face is masked, and he doesn't want to reveal his name, could it be that this person is a member of the Dark Sect? Why would Chiba Palace use the Dark Sect in order to recruit dead soldiers?

Although Chenkong had doubts in his heart, he would not ask, you must know that in Tailuo Country, only the Dark Sect inquired about others, and no one dared to touch the details of the Dark Sect, and the people who were targeted by them would not end well.

Immediately put on a smile and a smile.

"Hehe, where, since the envoy has a mission, Lao Dao will not delay time. ”

took out the scroll in his sleeve and presented it, "This is the list of immortal pawns sent by the Xianyang Sect this time, the people on the list are here, and please take care of the envoy all the way." ”

The Man in Black put away the list.

"That's natural, in the future, these are the disciples of Chiba Palace, and they won't be treated badly, elders, don't worry. ”

After hearing this, Chenkong's cheeks twitched, and he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and there was something in the messenger's words, which meant that these people were now the people of the Chiba Palace, and they were not under the control of the Xianyang Sect to which they belonged, and the people of the Chiba Palace had to be devoted to the Chiba Palace, even if it was their own mother sect, they were no longer qualified to interfere in their life and death, and the Chiba Palace was in charge of everything. The purpose of the Chiba Palace's regular issuance of edicts to other sects in the Tailuo Kingdom is actually a means to weaken others and maintain their own dominance, and naturally they don't want the immortals they recruit to have the imprint of their mother sects.

Dusty Sky could only smile awkwardly. "That's it, the Messenger. ”

The man in the black shirt smiled.

"These are the last words, and there is one more thing to trouble the elders. ”

"Your Excellency, the messenger, though she commands. ”

The black-robed messenger lifted two fingers and tapped them lightly on his mask's forehead, and a flash of golden light flew out of his heavenly spirit, turning into an unfolded golden scroll three feet from his head. Zuo Hu could faintly see some handwriting on the floating scroll in the distance, but he couldn't see what was written. Dust's face changed when he saw the golden scroll.

"Divine Edict!"

Hurriedly put himself on his knees.

When the disciples saw that the elder had to respectfully perform such a big salute when he saw the golden edict, they knew that it was not an ordinary scroll, and it was likely to represent the will of the high-level of the Chiba Palace, so they all knelt on the ground.

Seeing everyone kneeling on the ground, the strange falsetto of the black-shirted man sounded again.

"A few days ago, the three high-ranking members of your sect had already received an edict from the palace master and were given the elixir. ”

Hearing the words "Suppressing Spiritual Pill", Chenkong was shocked, the Suppressing Pill was a poisonous elixir developed by the Qianye Palace Danzong with a secret method to inhibit the cultivation of monks! Only the high-level of the Qianye Palace had a method of detoxification. After the monk takes it, if he does not take the antidote, he will not be able to absorb the spiritual power and breathe into the cultivation. Generally, it will only be used when punishing the faulty sect, and I haven't heard of the Xianyang Sect betraying the Chiba Palace, how can it be?

Dust Hollow had questions, but he didn't dare to ask. Although he was an elder, he still couldn't touch some secret affairs in the sect.

It all started a month ago.

In the back mountain of the Xianyang Sect, the ancestor of the Dan period retreated in the secret room.

In the dark and damp secret room of the dungeon, three pairs of eyes like stars opened at the same time.

"How could the edict of Chiba Palace come at this time?"

The voice of an old ancestor in the middle sounded.

"Yes, there is no reason to give us the Suppression Pill, don't think about breaking through in forty years, Chiba Palace is really too deceitful!"

An angry voice of an old woman sounded on the left-hand side.

"Senior sister, be quiet, maybe the people of the Dark Sect have planted eyes and ears in our sect, don't cause trouble!"

"Hmph, against our small sect, we shouldn't use the Dark Sect, Second Senior Brother doesn't have to worry. ”

The ancestor on the right side sighed lightly.

"It's better to be careful, after all, this is an extraordinary time, maybe the country of Tailuo is about to change. ”

"Senior brother, is that news true or not, it is said that the dragon cloud appeared in the sky above Purple Maple City, and was dispersed by the thunderstorm, maybe the palace master of Chiba Palace has already sat down, if it is true, I am afraid there will be turmoil!"

Facing the old woman's inquiry, the ancestor in the middle shook his head gently.

"It's not particularly clear, but judging from the actions of the Heavenly Dark Sect these days, it should be true, Tailuo Kingdom, more than 170 sect ancestor level monks of all sizes have been given the Spirit Suppression Pill. There must be something wrong in the palace, and I am afraid of rebellion, so I will use the people of the Dark Sect to pass on the edict to Cidan..... If Ye Chong is dead, I don't know who will be the palace master, and the neighboring countries will definitely get the news, and I hope that there will be no war. ”

"Hmph, Chiba Palace has been holding power for thousands of years, I think it's about to be overwhelmed!"

"Senior sister, don't worry about these things, how can we be qualified to discuss the issue of the authority of the Tailuo Kingdom in our small Dan period, and we have been suppressed for forty years of spiritual power.... I don't know if there is a chance to get a baby in this life..."

"Second Senior Brother, you are always so timid, you have no ambition at all!"

"I ..."

"Don't make any noise!"

The younger brothers and sisters on the left and the other on the right were drunk by the ancestor in the middle.

"In this period, it is best for us to close our heads, no matter what the attitude of other sects is, we can't mess up, seek stability, it has always been the way of survival of my Xianyang Sect, if the neighboring countries invade, we must also be ready to fight, if the Chiba Palace is defeated, we will not have any good results! Besides, there have been many masters in the palace for many years, and one less Ye Zhong should not be underestimated! Otherwise, there will be big trouble!"

“.... Yes, brother!"

After the old woman and the second senior brother on the left responded, they closed their eyes again and began to cultivate. Although the elixir is said to be miraculous by the world, it is said that except for the antidote given by Chiba Palace, no one can resist its medicinal effect. But there are also rumors that some people forcibly extricate themselves by virtue of their cultivation, so if they don't give it a try, they will be unwilling.

The ancestor in the middle sighed lightly and closed his eyes, he just asked for this turmoil to end quickly, and the Chiba Palace could not detect the tension of the situation, so he would naturally send a messenger to give the antidote.

Gradually, silence regained in the palace.

Thousands of miles away from the Xianyang Sect, there is also a Immortal Cultivation Sect, the Eye God Sect.

The ancestor of the Mushen Sect was a monk who cultivated to the early stage of the Yudan, and at this time, he was also given the Soul Suppression Pill by the Chiba Palace. But he didn't feel aggrieved at all, but sent the messenger away with a respectful face. Since the two sect masters passed away one after another eight hundred years ago, the strength of the Mushen Sect has declined sharply, and he, a junior in the Dan stage, has to take the lead alone. Maybe it's because the strength is too weak, and it rarely gets the attention of Chiba Palace. But this Ancestor was happy to do so. Because the Mushen Sect hides a secret that has been around for eight hundred years.

Those two former clan brothers are not dead!

The "Ancestors" of the Dan period will regularly secretly report some news to these two hidden masters. The sect was given the elixir of suppression, of course, it was also one of them.

In a hidden place in the sect, there is an ancient tree nearly 100 zhang thick, and its lush branches and leaves occupy almost the entire valley.

Through the dense leaves, there is a tree hole that leads to the depths of the earth, and in a dirt chamber with roots and roots, an old man sits cross-legged.

Half of his face was obscured by his long gray hair, and one hand was hidden in a wide sleeve.

At this time, his other face was full of gray aura, and gray light flickered around him from time to time.

"Hah!!"

After about half a pillar of incense, there was a loud cry in the earthen room. The old man waved his sleeves, and the gray light dissipated.

He slowly opened that eye, revealing a sinister smile.

"Chiba Palace really hasn't made any progress at all, once something happens, use this pill to bluff people, hehe....."

The old man let out a hoarse laugh, and he looked up, and it seemed to pierce the dirt.

"Ye Chong, even you wouldn't have thought that I was still alive, I Qiu Jian, but after you, the second person to transform into a god and become a great consummation. Did you fail to win the championship?haha.... It's good if I fail, I only have a chance if I fail!"

"Big brother, are you going to have an accident?"

In the earthen room, only this Qiu Jian sat cross-legged, but suddenly a strange voice of a second person appeared!

Qiu Jian was stunned.

"Qiuxian, you're awake..... Yes, the time has come, and I have been waiting for this day for more than 800 years..... According to the spies' report, the Oniqiu Kingdom has begun to contact the chess pieces that were arranged earlier, and it should soon be ready to start moving. ”

"However, I always feel very strange, Chiba Palace's precautionary measures are full of loopholes, I always feel..."

"Hey, hey, hey.... You think too much about Qiu Xian, no one would have thought that we had a connection with Ghost Hill a thousand years ago, and this Ghost Hill's Demon Divine Skill is really good, and it can make me cross from Yuan Ying to the Great Perfection of Transformation in .....800 years!

"Big brother, why should I be sentimental, on the contrary, I feel that now my cultivation has improved a lot, and it seems that I have taken a different path.... I'm just worried that if we act too rashly, there will be danger, and if we succeed, we may become the heroes of the Oniqiu Kingdom in the future, but if we fail, the Oniqiu Kingdom will lose all our previous achievements, and we will be treated as outcasts, and we will die without a place to bury! After all, if we have concealed it for so long, we can't fall short. ”

Qiu Jian's brows frowned slightly.

"No, now I'm here, plus this arm..."

He glanced down at the wide sleeve.

"Even if Ye Chong is still alive, I am qualified to fight with him, not to mention that he is dead!"

Hearing this, the ghost of Qiu Xian also died silently, it has always been, as long as the eldest brother makes a decision, no one can change it....
