Volume 1 The Lord of Snake Pan Mountain Chapter 182 Journey to the Western Regions
The Western Regions are relatively high in terrain and densely wooded, and the weather is very humid and hot, so there are relatively many miasma and poisonous insects.
At the foot of a mountain that resembles a bull's head, a group of people are marching.
This group of people was none other than the six Wei Wuxian who had set off to come to the Western Regions after reporting from the Tianshui Sect's Internal Affairs Hall three days ago.
On the way, they had already met several waves of other sect monks who had come here, almost all of them were in the late stage of foundation building, and they rarely saw monks in the middle stage of foundation building.
The entrance to the secret realm is said to be in a water curtain cave, and there is another space through the waterfall, which is extremely mysterious.
Jin Zhiyong took out a map to look at, then pointed to a hanging plank road on the opposite side and said, "Go up over there." ”
Shen Lang said, "Slow." With that, he raised his hand and threw a pebble out on the chain bridge leading to the suspended plank road, and a shocking scene appeared, the chain bridge actually rippled like a wave of water, and then turned into nothingness.
It turned out that what I had seen before was a conjured sight, and if I kept moving forward, I would definitely fall into the pit below.
A few people walked to the pit and found that there was a miasma below, and they didn't know how deep it was.
"What a powerful illusion!" Yang Guangzheng said.
"With Senior Brother Shen here, no matter how powerful the illusion is, it won't work. Chen Junwu said.
"Who is here to arrange this, their hearts can be punished!" Shangguan Yan said.
"I still need to ask. It must also be the monk who came to compete for the 'Ning Yuan Fruit'. Jin Zhiyong said.
"Let's go, everyone be careful, it will be more dangerous when you enter it. Shen Lang jumped on the Flying Sword Dao.
The rest of the people also sacrificed their flying swords.
Wei Wuxian looked at the suspended plank road opposite, and with a shake of his right hand, dozens of soul threads crossed the deep pit and wrapped themselves around an ancient tree on the opposite side, and then jumped over with his strength and landed steadily on the suspended plank road.
The other people saw the surprise in their eyes, and after getting on the suspended plank road, they continued to move forward, burrowing into a passage not far away.
The passage goes straight up, and the cliffs are straight on both sides, and after walking about a hundred feet, you can hear the roar of the waterfall falling.
On a scenic mountain cliff, a waterfall more than ten zhang wide pours down from the cliff, and the water is turbulent, which is magnificent.
There were already a lot of people on this side of the waterfall, and they were waiting for something in groups, and when they saw Wei Wuxian and his party, they just glanced at it and didn't care.
These days, it is not surprising that there are not 1,000 but 800 monks who have entered the secret realm from here.
But one man approached them.
Shen Lang greeted him with a smile and said, "Brother Guo, you are here too!"
Guo Zhongnian smiled and said, "You're here, can I not come!" After that, he looked at Wei Wuxian and the others: "I don't seem to have seen these people, it's not you who live in Laifeng, right?"
Shen Lang pointed at Chen Junwu and said, "This is my junior brother, and the rest of the people are the best of the other peaks." ”
In the middle of the year, several people arched their hands to Wei Wuxian.
Wei Wuxian saw that the other party was wearing the clothes of Luoyang Sect, and knew that this person should have a lot to do with Shen Lang, otherwise with Shen Lang's temper, he would not introduce himself and others.
Shen Lang glanced at the other three Luoyang Sect foundation building late stage monks and said, "Why are you still waiting outside and not going in?"
"It's not time yet, but we'll have to wait for the waterfall on the other side to turn dark red," said Guo Zhongnian.
"I see. ”
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Red, red." ”
Wei Wuxian looked at it, and sure enough, the waterfall opposite faintly revealed a faint red light.
Guo Zhongnian said to Shen Lang: "Let's go first!" After that, he jumped over with a few fellow disciples and disappeared into the waterfall opposite.
Shen Lang also said to the few people behind him: "Let's go too!"
The six of them walked through the waterfall, and Wei Wuxian found himself on top of a cloud platform, with the flowing waterfall on one side and the dense jungle on the other.
"It's so rich in heaven and earth vitality!" Jin Zhiyong took a deep breath and said with great enjoyment.
"Yes, at least it's more than twice as large as the outside, and only this kind of place can give birth to the 'Ning Yuan Fruit' that is useful for condensing the Golden Pill. Shangguan Yan said.
The group went down along the cloud platform, and several monks of the Luoyang Sect had already disappeared without a trace.
The more they walked inside, the more they felt that the vitality of heaven and earth was stronger, this kind of place was like a legendary fairyland for them, if they cultivated here, then the cultivation speed would definitely be much faster than outside.
The six of them were even more convinced that there should be a 'Ning Yuan Fruit' here, and perhaps there were more cherished elixirs and materials.
However, the six of them were very careful, this kind of unknown place, coupled with the fact that there were so many foundation building monks from the sect entering it, it could be said that it was normal for anything to happen.
"Look, what is that. Shangguan Yan suddenly pointed to a pile of things on the ground in the distance.
A few people walked over and knew what it was at a glance. It was a pile of ashes left behind after the burned corpse.
"Everyone be careful, it is estimated that there are many people who have the intention of killing people and seizing treasures. Shen Lang said.
The group moved forward again, and gradually the front opened up, and on the opposite side was a vast plain.
And to their surprise, there was a hexagonal tower on the plain.
The six of them were thinking about whether to go over and take a look, when they heard a terrifying hissing sound coming from the dead forest.
Several people did not hesitate, and at the same time ran towards the hexagonal tower.
But the tower looked very close, and the six of them ran for a long time and arrived, and Shen Lang in front of him suddenly stopped with a change of expression.
The rest of the people also stopped to look at him.
Shen Lang looked around, and his two hands were like wheels playing out one trick after another, but there was no movement.
When several people saw his solemn expression, they knew that something must be wrong.
Wei Wuxian looked at the gray Heavenly Dao in the sky: "It's not around, maybe it's above." ”
Shen Lang immediately sacrificed a flying sword and shot directly into the void.
The flying sword had just gone up less than fifty zhang before it was smashed into pieces by several yin thunderbolts and fell down. However, the eyes of several people darkened, and the surrounding environment changed, the vast plain was gone, and they were in a white bone field that was glowing.
The yin qi is forested, and it is simply a Shura dojo.
"Illusion, everything is illusion!" Shen Lang said in horror.
"Are all the illusions we saw before?" Shangguan Yan asked.
"From the moment we entered the mountain, all we saw was a fantasy, which deceived not only our eyes, but also our other senses. Wei Wuxian said.
"And that Luoyang Sect monk we met?"
Shen Lang smiled bitterly: "That's also an illusion, including what we see now may not be true, because our five senses are obscured, what we see, what we hear, even..." ”
Jin Zhiyong said: "How is this possible, Senior Brother Shen, are you mistaken!"
"Don't come close, I'll make a move. Shen Lang said to Jin Zhiyong, who was walking towards him.
Jin Zhiyong had to stop where he was, and at this time, the rest of the people felt the seriousness of the situation, and they consciously distanced themselves.
If the six of them can't even trust each other, then the whole team will be scattered.
Wei Wuxian immediately used the Heavenly Life Water Technique to stabilize his mind, closed his eyes to sense the changes in the aura around him, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said: "Don't panic, everyone, this is the 'Soul Attracting Array' of the Fallen Soul Sect, keep your mind, and wait for me to find out the person behind the scenes." ”
Shen Lang scolded angrily: "What are you talking nonsense, this is not a 'soul attraction array' at all, everyone must not be deceived by him, he is probably no longer Senior Brother Wei." ”
The other people looked at Shen Lang and then at Wei Wuxian, and they all stayed in place for a while, not knowing how to choose.
Wei Wuxian sneered and suddenly flew out a banner banner and landed around everyone, and then played a magic spell in their surprised gaze.
"Broken!"
In an instant, the surrounding void shook, Shen Lang, who was originally standing in front of the five people, disappeared, and the white bones underground also disappeared, and the five people were still on the cloud platform that came in before.
"Senior Brother Shen?" Chen Junwu looked around, but he didn't see Shen Lang's shadow, and looked at Wei Wuxuan suspiciously.
Wei Wuxian said, "He didn't come in at all. ”
"He didn't come in, what's going on!" Jin Zhiyong didn't understand.
Wei Wuxian said, "If I'm not mistaken, you all heard your news from Senior Brother Shen, right?"
Jin Zhiyong and Shangguan Yan glanced at each other and nodded, "Yes, it was Senior Brother Shen who came back from Yunyou who told us the news, what's the matter, is there anything wrong with this?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Of course, because he is no longer the former Senior Brother Shen!"
Chen Junwu said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, who would it be if it wasn't Senior Brother Shen?"
"Yes, Senior Brother Wei, don't talk nonsense. Yang Guangzheng said.
Wei Wuxian said: "I mean his sanity has been controlled by other people, and all his words and deeds are done according to the other party's wishes. The illusion at the suspended plank road was just to test us and paralyze us. ”
Shangguan Yan said: "Why did he do that?"
Wei Wuxian said: "The illusion of the suspended plank road is not particularly clever, I think some of the senior brothers present should be able to see it, of course, it can also be seen below." So he broke the formation first, gained our trust first, and then the key was in front of the waterfall. ”
Jin Zhiyong said: "There is nothing abnormal in front of the waterfall!"
"There are too many loopholes, but we were attracted by his previous actions and the arrival of that Luoyang Sect monk. Think about it, since they are all waiting outside, how do they know that the time to enter is after the waterfall changes color? This is a bit unreasonable! Okay, even if someone has gone in or heard of it, where did these people come from, and was the illusion in front of the suspended plank road set by one of them? Since the monks of the Luoyang Sect have a good relationship with Senior Brother Shen, why didn't they mention the illusion in front of them from beginning to end?"
Wei Wuxian's words softened Chen Junwu's expression, which was angry, and after thinking about it carefully, there were really a lot of things that didn't make sense.
Wei Wuxian said: "There is no secret realm behind that waterfall at all, but a trap arranged in advance by the other party. Senior Brother Shen's purpose in doing that before was to make the few of us lose trust in each other, so that they could do it. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a round of applause came from the woods opposite.
Then the five of them saw a group of black-robed people coming out of it, and said in the lead: "Wonderful, wonderful, no wonder some people say that you are the only disciple below the Jindan of the Tianshui Sect who can compare with Dong Xing's soul, we have such a fine layout, but I didn't expect that there are so many loopholes in your eyes, and it seems that the harvest of this seat today is far beyond expectations!" After speaking, a powerful qi was released from his body that far surpassed that of the monks in the late stage of foundation building, and this person was a monk in the early stage of the Jindan.
He didn't rush to attack but said slowly: "If you can break my 'Soul Attracting Array', presumably Wang Tang of the Wang family should also die in your hands, and I will settle this account with you today." ”
The black-robed people on both sides rushed straight to the gimbal as soon as he finished speaking.
These black-robed people turned out to be all monks in the middle and late stages of foundation building, a total of fifteen people, and they were overwhelming in number. What's more, there is also a black-robed leader in the early stage of Jindan who can make a move at any time by his side.
Shangguan Yan and the others were secretly frightened, this time they were afraid that they would not be able to escape.
Wei Wuxian said, "Jump down!" As he spoke, he turned around and jumped towards the waterfall opposite, and the other people were now in a state of six gods and no master, and they didn't care what was behind the waterfall, and they also jumped over.
"I want to run, but there is no way. Chase!" The black-robed leader's body turned into a black light and chased after him directly.
The rest of the black-robed people also followed.
On the other side, Wei Wuxian came to the place where he saw the Luoyang Sect in the middle of the year again, but everything in front of him was completely two scenes.
The ground was littered with corpses from various sects, all of which had been drained of their essence and blood without exception, leaving only dry skins and skeletons.
Shen Lang Muran stood in the middle, and he didn't react when he saw them, like a soulless walking corpse.
"Senior brother!" Chen Junwu was about to run over, but was grabbed by Wei Wuxian and said, "He's dead." Now it's just a shell, run away, or it'll be too late. ”
Chen Junwu was dragged by him and rushed towards the suspended plank road.
But at this moment, a black light blocked the front of the group in front of them, and behind them were fifteen black-robed people who were chasing after them.
Wei Wuxian glanced at the black-robed leader who had emerged from the light, and said to the other four: "I'll block him, you go first." As he spoke, a thick column of water surged out, turning into a water dragon in front of him, and then all the three hundred and thirty-eight drops of Tianyi heavy water that he had accumulated for several months were submerged inside, and with a push of his right palm, the water dragon let out a heaven-shattering dragon roar and roared towards the black-robed leader opposite.
The others took advantage of this brief opportunity to bypass from both sides, not because they didn't want to stay to help Wei Wuxian, but because they knew that it was useless to stay, but instead wasted the opportunity that Wei Wuxian had created for them.
The black-robed leader's face was covered by a hood, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but he didn't pay attention to the four people who fled from both sides, which proved that he valued Wei Wuxian's move very seriously, and he didn't dare to be distracted in the slightest.
"The Great Sea Technique, okay, I want to see how hot you are!" With that, he pressed out a palm, and immediately a huge black handprint appeared in the void and collided with the water dragon that came from the impact.
The weight of the three hundred and thirty-eight drops of Tianyi Heavy Water itself reached a terrifying 338,000 catties, and this blow, coupled with the Yuan Force that Wei Wuxian poured into it, the power could be said to be shocking.
However, such a huge impact failed to defeat the black handprint on the opposite side, but was bounced back.
However, the bounced dragon head swirled around in a very short distance and slammed into the black handprint on the opposite side again.
One, two, three, and by the fifth time, the black handprint completely collapsed, and the water dragon rushed directly to the black-robed leader behind.
All this is a long story, in fact, it is a matter of a few breaths, the speed of the water dragon is very fast, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is impossible to see the changes in it, and I feel that the black handprint trembled a few times before it collapsed.
The black-robed man sighed softly, his body drifting backwards, this time no longer confronting head-on, and adopting a strategy of evasion.
As soon as Wei Wuxian pushed it out, the person followed, and his body jumped on the dragon's body, and instead of chasing the black-robed man, he went directly towards the suspended plank road below.
How could the black-robed leader let him escape, his figure flickered, and he reached Wei Wuxian's back, his right palm shot out of the void, and a black handprint immediately appeared, and then a series of phantoms slashed through the void and hit his back.
This black handprint is not big, but it is more condensed and heavy.
Wei Wuxian had been closely watching the movements of the black-robed leader, and immediately with a little foot, the water dragon flipped over and blocked behind.
After a hundred years of penance in the ancient mirror, his water control technique has reached the point where his heart moves at will.
Bang, it slammed into each other again.
However, this time the black-robed man had expected it, and his body floated to the side like a ghost, and he struck out with a palm.
A single palm may not be able to cause any damage to Wei Wuxian, but the spell is dead, the person is alive, and it is not a problem to continuously palm with his strength.
However, Wei Wuxian had already expected that he only had three hundred and thirty-eight drops of Tianyi Heavy Water, and there was no problem in concentrating on one palm, but if it was separated, it would be greatly reduced, so as soon as the opponent's body moved, he took out a sword weapon, and all the three layers of prohibition were activated, and the fist-sized yin thunder gushed out from the void and landed on the black palm print.
Boom, the forces on both sides were roughly equal, and they collapsed and dispersed at the same time.
The black-robed leader knew that the other party should still be able to deal with his palm when Wei Wuxian took out the sword weapon, and his body shook again at the same time, and the black shadow went around to the side and grabbed it with one claw, ready to directly pull Wei Wuxian's heart out of it. For such a powerful monk, the taste of the heart should be very wonderful.
But when his hand was about to approach Wei Wuxian's chest, hundreds of steel needles pierced him head-on, and his palm that had cultivated like a diamond was actually pierced by those invisible needles, so startled that he hurriedly retracted his hand and his body exploded backwards, and he shouted: "Soul Silk, you have actually refined into Soul Silk!"
Wei Wuxian didn't have the time to chat with him now, and as soon as his body turned, he fled directly with the flying sword.
The black-robed leader sneered: "I still want to run when I get here!" and said to the fifteen black-robed people who rushed over: "You go after those four, and I will deal with this personally." With that, he turned into a ray of light and chased after him.
Three days later, Wei Wuxian fell on a big tree to rest exhausted, and during these three days, the black-robed leader stuck to him like a dog's skin plaster, and he couldn't shake it off. If it weren't for the resources he had enough, I am afraid he would not have been able to hold it up now.
But even so, it was to the point where the Yuan Force was exhausted, whether it was the Yuan Qi Pill or the Yuan Crystal, it would take time to absorb them for their own use, but the black-robed leader didn't give him this opportunity at all, as long as he stopped for a while, he chased after him, and the two of them went around in the mountains of the Western Regions for three days, and now they don't know where they went.
He tried his best to absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the Yuan Jing, but fortunately, his Black Water True Scripture could convert any Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi into water aura, and the speed of absorbing the Yuan Qi was much faster than that of ordinary exercises, otherwise the Yuan Qi he absorbed with such a little effort would not be enough for him to plug between his teeth.
Suddenly, he stopped what he was doing, and the guy seemed to be coming again.
The strength of the black-robed leader is slightly higher than him, and he should belong to the more powerful kind among the early Jindan monks. Otherwise, ordinary Jindan early stage monks would definitely not be able to force him like this.
Sure enough, a black shadow flashed not far away, and the black-robed leader appeared in front of him again.
The black-robed leader is actually miserable now, he never expected that with his own strength, he would not be able to deal with a late-stage foundation building monk, this Tianshui Sect monk named Wei Hua is even more powerful than rumored, this person must not let him leave the Western Regions alive.
Wei Wuxian said, "You've been chasing me for so long, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
The black-robed leader sneered: "Could it be that you still have any means that you haven't used, it doesn't matter, you can take them out and let this seat see and understand." ”
Wei Wuxian said, "Don't blame me for looking for your own death." After that, he patted the soul bottle and said, "Ah Cai!"
The white-eyed, black-eyed slender head of Ah Cai emerged from the soul bottle and said, "Honorable master, are you summoning your most loyal and astute subordinate, Ah Cai!"
"Don't come out yet, array. ”
"Yes. Dear hosts. The white-eyed black demon Ah Cai slipped out of the soul bottle like a noodle, and then one by one evil evil came out of it, and there were as many as a hundred.
"You're still raising ghosts... Are you a Tianshui Sect monk or a disciple of my Fallen Soul Sect... It's really unbelievable to be a ghost in front of me, hahaha" The black-robed leader laughed.
"Yes, then you can try the taste of the 'Hundred Ghost Refining Soul Array'!"
