Day and night, rain and rain, all the way to the east, finally arrived at the Chixia Valley.

Chixia Valley is located in the south of Geling in Kunlun Mountain, more than 300 miles away from the cliff peak and the barbarian bone forest, because the clouds are in full swing in the morning and evening, so it is named. The valley is surrounded by majestic mountains, and there is a narrow gap in the southwest that stretches for miles, and the narrowest point can only accommodate two people passing side by side.

As early as half a month ago, the Kunlun faction sent more than 20 disciples to greet the seven factions of the side branch at the mouth of the valley, and the Xiandu faction was the penultimate to arrive, and the Yuxu faction, which was the farthest away from Chixia Valley, was still on the way, and there were still a few days away.

Leading the way for the Xiandu faction is the sword cultivator of the Kunlun lineage, surnamed Zhou Mingji, very young, his face is like a crown of jade, he is neither humble nor arrogant, courteous and thoughtful, quite a famous disciple's demeanor.

Xi Huzi politely asked about his mentorship, and Zhou Ji replied: "The disciple worships under the door of Elder Qin of the Five Elements Sect. ”

Kunlun sword cultivation is divided into lineage and side branches, the lineage is the five sects of Imperial Sword, Five Elements, Poison Sword, Hook and Sickle, and Feiyu, and the side branch is Liyang, Xuantong, Yuanrong, Shaoling, Yuxu, Pingyuan, and Xiandu Seven Sects. Zhou Ji's master Qin Zijie was originally a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, but he was recovered for dereliction of duty and relegated to serve in the Pingyuan Sect of the Side Branch.

Xi Huzi was born in the Flying Feather Sect and has heard of this story. He frowned slightly, then stretched out and said, "Is Elder Qin also coming to Chixia Valley this time?"

"Yes, Master, his old man will preside over this sword discussion in Chixia Valley. ”

Xi Huzi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile bitterly secretly, even the disciples looked at each other, thinking that such an arrangement was aimed at the Xiandu faction.

Among the seven factions of the Kunlun side branch, in terms of relationship, Xiandu and Pingyuan have always been not harmonious, and in terms of strength, Xiandu and Xuantong are both at the bottom, and Qin Zijie happens to be inextricably linked with these two factions. He once cultivated in Qianren Peak, and Ji Hongru, the head of Pingyuan, looked at him differently, and took care of him, Han Chisong, the head of Xuantong, was born in the Five Elements Sect, and he was a distant relative of Qin Zijie, and his relatives were different, no matter how he looked at it, it was impossible for Elder Qin to be impartial and preside over fairness.

Chixia Valley covers a wide area, there are waterfalls, deep pools, peach forests, and fine houses in the valley, which is a good place for Kunlun Mountain. The Xiandu faction and his party were placed in Taoyuan Beppu, adjacent to the two factions of Liyang and Shaoling. The seven factions of the side branches, led by the Liyang faction and the Shaoling faction, are beyond the reach of the immortals, and there is no conflict of interest with each other, and they can get along.

It was not too late, Xi Huzi summoned the four disciples into the quiet room to discuss secretly, Zhao Zongxuan, Sima Yang, and Han Tuo made an appointment to play in the valley, and greeted Wei Qiqi, who politely declined.

After the three of them left, Wei Qiqi quietly got up and went around to the peach forest behind Beppu, where there were thumb-sized cicadas everywhere along the way.

He looked around carefully, saw that there was no one near on the left, and released the Hidden Snow Sword from the sword bag. Like a trapped dragon coming out of the abyss, the Hidden Snow Sword buzzed, and the demon pill in the dantian also trembled.

Wei Qiqi drew the sword trick with his left hand, and the Zangxue sword floated crookedly, hovering in the air. He had no distractions in his mind, urged the flying sword to glide slowly beside him, and practiced the swordsmanship once, but he was so unfamiliar and clumsy that he couldn't even look past it.

In Qixia Cave that day, Xi Huzi passed on his swordsmanship and told him to practice diligently, but Wei Seventeen was riddled with mundane things, and he never had time to think about it carefully, and his progress was extremely slow.

A slow and logical voice suddenly sounded, as if the elders were teaching the juniors: "It's too weak, you haven't even learned the sword technique, aren't you afraid of being bullied?"

Wei Qiqi looked up and saw Ruan Jing's pretty face that seemed to be smiling, she was sitting on the peach tree, her feet swinging and swinging, she was still fifteen or sixteen years old, and the years had not left the slightest trace on her. He laughed, put away the Hidden Snow Sword, and said, "Miss Ruan, we meet again!"

Ruan Jing glanced at him casually and said, "You really came to Chixia Valley, I didn't mistake you! Erysipelas has been dissolved, and your complexion is good, hey, who taught you the breathing technique?"

Wei Qiqi was stunned for a moment, his heart moved, and he said tentatively: "The White Snake senior who received the Tianling Peak taught a mantra to lock the bloodline breath deep in the body and not be noticed, is this a breathing technique?"

Ruan Jing's face was a little strange, and she laughed and said: "Senior White Snake, hehe, that's it, I didn't expect her to look at you differently, it's rare...... The secret of the bloodline, she told you?"

"Yes, the White Snake senior said that I have the blood of the Dragon Zeba Snake in my body, and I can barely be regarded as the same clan. ”

Ruan Jing jumped off the tree, looked up at his face, his eyes suddenly lit up, pulled up his left hand, pressed the mark on the back of his hand, and said, "The bloodline has awakened, faster than I expected." ”

"Thank you Miss Ruan for the Penglai bag, it helped a lot, and now that I think about it, I still have palpitations. ”

"It's very thrilling - the bloodline awakens, the remnant soul is gone, this is the usual trick of the ancient demon clan, you are lucky, even if you have the help of Penglai bag, the chance of surviving this level is less than thirty percent. ”

Wei Qiqi knew that if it weren't for the chance, Penglai Bag had devoured the souls of many monsters one after another, but he was afraid that he would not be able to subdue a wisp of the snake's remnant soul.

"What if you don't survive?" he asked curiously.

Ruan Jing stretched out her hand to poke his chest, and said with a smile: "You are no longer you, the Demon Tower of Liushi Peak Town will be your final destination." Don't worry, if there is a real day, I will often come to see you and talk to you, do you say?"

"Good...... That's great......" Wei Qiqi felt that she was telling a cold joke.
