Chapter 356: The Eve of the Storm

Half an hour later, Ziyue took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the monstrous waves in her heart, and respectfully handed the jade slip back to Duan Tiangu.

Duan Tiangu, Yan Chenzi and several other old men knew that it must be difficult to calm down in the hearts of these four young people, so they did not speak, but sat on the chair and closed their eyes to recuperate, waiting for Qu Feng and the others to digest those earth-shattering secrets.

Su Zhen was the first person to check the jade slip, and now his mind has calmed down, but there is still a deep groan in his eyes, obviously he still has a lot of questions in his heart.

Qu Feng has been following Yan Chenzi all the year round, and because Qu Yunwei admires Shui Shenqiu very much, he also knows a lot about Shui Shenqiu, and now that he knows these secrets, some of the doubts in his heart have been solved a lot.

For example, at the opening of the selection a year ago, the spirit measuring pillar underwent a shocking change, and the five pillars of light rose to the sky, Qiao Yuan shined, and was rushed into the door by Duan Tiangu and Yan Chenzi.

Now that I think about it, those five pillars of light rising into the sky are obviously a sign of the awakening of the spirit pillar, not because Qiao Yuan is a Five Elements Spirit Root Cultivator.

As for Qiao Yuan being rushed into the door by Duan Tiangu and Yan Chenzi, it is not that Qiao Yuan's qualifications are excellent, on the contrary, his spiritual roots are quite mixed, and his qualifications are relatively inferior.

But why is this, Duan Tiangu is still willing to accept Qiao Yuan as a disciple, obviously because Qiao Yuan is the one who revived the Zhenling Pillar.

Although Qu Feng didn't understand what was so strange about Qiao Yuan, he was able to revive the Zhenling Pillar, and this alone was enough to make Yan Chenzi and Duan Tiangu pay attention to it.

Besides, Ziyang and Ziyue, the two of them have been cultivating extremely hard, they have been in retreat all year round, and they rarely pay attention to the affairs in the sect, but now that they know these secrets, the shock in their hearts is naturally far better than that of Qu Feng and Su Zhen.

For a moment and a half, Qu Feng and the four of them were in a state of their own thoughts, until the four of them completely calmed down, Yan Chenzi opened his eyes, stroked his beard and said.

"If you still have any questions, just ask them. ”

"Master, didn't the Shui Shenqiu Ancestor leave behind ten spirit pillars? Now that he has only awakened one, could it be that one spirit pillar can stabilize the space of the entire Grass Spirit Valley?"

Qu Feng asked first.

Yan Chenzi showed a hint of appreciation in his eyes, nodded and said.

"That's a good question, a spirit pillar naturally can't hold the space of the entire Grass Spirit Valley, but if the position of the spirit pillar is placed well, it can stabilize the space of the key place. ”

"The key place, is it the cave land of the Lord of the Grass Spirit Valley?"

A strange glint flashed in Qu Feng's eyes, and he hurriedly asked.

Yan Chenzi didn't speak, just smiled and nodded.

"Uncle Yan Chenzi, I don't know who is responsible for placing the spirit pillar in the town, and how to ensure that it is placed in a key place?"

Su Zhen put away the deep groan in his eyes, stood up, looked at Yan Chenzi and said.

"I'm going to ask your master about this. ”

Yan Chenzi stroked his beard, showed a meaningful smile on his face, and said softly.

Duan Tiangu slowly opened his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Su Zhen and said.

"Wei Shi accepted a new disciple a year ago, and he came to place the Zhen Ling Pillar, as for how to ensure that it is placed in a key place, this matter is a long story, and Wei Shi also believes that your little junior brother can do it. ”

When Su Zhen heard that Duan Tiangu had accepted a new disciple, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

He still knows a lot about his master, knowing that he has focused on the way of formation all his life, and he is very concerned about the affairs of his disciples, and he usually teaches some basic knowledge, so he no longer cares about it.

Because of this, Duan Tiangu rarely accepts apprentices, and in the past hundreds of years, he has only accepted Su Zhen and Lian Jingshan as apprentices, and they have rarely taught, basically letting them cultivate on their own, but in terms of cultivation resources, Duan Tiangu will never be stingy with them.

Speaking of this, Duan Tiangu's calm expression suddenly changed drastically, and a pair of slightly dim eyes burst out with a dazzling essence in an instant.

Then he stood up and looked in the direction of the Grass Spirit Valley, a look of excitement slowly appeared on his face.

When Yan Chenzi and several other old men saw the change in Duan Tiangu's expression, they immediately thought about it, and the expressions on their faces slowly changed.

"Could it be...... The Spirit Pillar has appeared?"

A white-robed and white-haired old man sitting next to Duan Tiangu asked tentatively with a glint in his eyes.

Su Zhen and the other four young people didn't understand why Duan Tiangu's expression suddenly changed, but when they heard the words of the white-robed and white-haired old man, they suddenly understood in their hearts.

At this moment, their calm expressions also changed, and they all turned their heads to look in the direction of the Grass Spirit Valley, with a look of expectation in their eyes.

"The Spirit Pillar has been released by him, and now it is in a state of breaking the seal, this state will last for three days, and after three days, we can enter the Grass Spirit Valley through the spatial crack. ”

Duan Tiangu had a look of excitement on his face that he couldn't hide, and hurriedly spoke.

On the jade box that Duan Tiangu left for Qiao Yuan, there was a seal that he had specially arranged, and that seal could never be opened by anyone except Qiao Yuan, and this was not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that the seal still needs the strength above the Jindan stage to be able to completely break it.

Because of this, Duan Tiangu would let Qiao Yuan not be able to take it out until he was alive and dead, in his opinion, unless Qiao Yuan faced force majeure above the Jindan period, he would use the jade box.

And those who had that kind of power in the Grass Spirit Valley, except for the four king beasts they hadn't expected, were only the formations of that critical place.

Just in case, Duan Tiangu also left a prohibition on the Spirit Pillar, which had a special attraction to the powerful formation, and that prohibition would only break when it collided with a powerful formation, releasing the power of the Spirit Pillar.

In this case, even if Qiao Yuan really happened to open the jade box elsewhere, the Spirit Pillar was still in a sealed state.

Duan Tiangu arranged many means, just to let Qiao Yuan place the town spirit pillar in a key place without knowing it.

Now he sensed that the seal on the jade box had been broken, and he even sensed that the prohibition on the Spirit Pillar had dispersed.

After thinking about it for a while, Duan Tiangu knew that the Zhen Ling Pillar had been released by Qiao Yuan, and the location of the Zhen Ling Pillar must be in that crucial place, that is, where the cave of the Lord of the Grass Spirit Valley was located.

"I didn't expect Senior Nephew Qiao to find that mysterious place in less than a month, but it was beyond our expectations, three days are a little anxious, Feng'er, hurry up and notify you Uncle Hongsheng to come over." ”

After a while, Yan Chenzi's fluctuating mind calmed down, his eyes flashed with thought, and he whispered, as he spoke, he turned his head to look at Qu Feng again, and spoke urgently.

Qu Feng nodded, and his figure walked out of the hall in a flash.

"The people of the other three sects shouldn't know about this yet, but in less than one day, there should be a change in the Grass Spirit Valley, and they will know about it at that time, so we will have one more day to prepare than them. ”

Duan Tiangu also calmed down the fluctuations in his mood, thought for a moment, and said slowly.

"One day is enough time for us to get a head start, so let's go to the spatial rift now. ”

Yan Chenzi nodded and said softly.

After saying that, the nine people in the hall all disappeared in place, and when they reappeared, they were already on the deck of the Black Moon Warship.

Not to mention it here for the time being, in the Spirit Beast Garden of the Grass Spirit Valley, at this moment, the color of the heavens and the earth has changed, and a thick pillar with a whole body like a crystal rises to the sky.

From a distance, this pillar is like a pillar supporting the sky, down to the earth, up to the sky, standing there makes people feel as small as ants.

A hundred miles away from this pillar, there were two people flying rapidly against the ground, but at the moment when the pillar rose into the sky, the two of them were instantly shocked, stopped and looked at the sky blankly.

"This ...... What is this?"

One of the two burly men pointed to the pillar that rose to the sky, and said in a trembling voice with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"Spirit Pillar?"

Another young man in a black shirt was slightly stunned when he saw the pillar, but his expression was much calmer than that of the burly man, and after a while, the young man's eyes flashed and he said in a low voice.

"Uncle Shi, what Zhenling Pillar?"

The burly man heard the young man's whisper and hurriedly asked.

"Haha...... God help me!"

The young man ignored the burly man, but laughed excitedly, and after laughing, his figure moved, directly changed direction, and flew straight towards the pillar that soared to the sky.

The burly man had a puzzled look on his face, looked at the pillar that soared to the sky, and did not hesitate any longer, but hurriedly followed.

This burly man is Hong Jian, and the young man is Yan Li.

At the same moment, at the bottom of a certain mountain peak, Pei Hongyu suddenly opened his eyes, and he just clearly felt the heavens and the earth tremble.

After hesitating for a moment, Pei Hongyu's figure flickered and went straight to the ground.

"This ...... This is?"

When Pei Hongyu saw the pillar that held the sky, his eyes showed disbelief, and he said in a trembling voice.

And at this moment, a ghostly light flashed out of his storage bag, turning into a round jade pendant in front of Pei Hongyu, and the jade pendant was engraved with the word "soul", which was the soul jade.

"It turned out to be the Spirit Pillar...... Hongyu, hurry up. ”

The red light of the soul descending jade flashed, and a woman's voice full of excitement came from within it.

Pei Hongyu knew that it was his master who came out, so he didn't dare to disobey his order, so he had to pick up the jade pendant and fly quickly in the direction of the pillar that supported the sky.

Besides, below the pillar that supported the sky, the Liuyin Cloud Breaking Spear felt that the formation of the Spirit Pillar posed a great threat.

Without the slightest pause, the huge silver spear flew directly out of the pit that had just been pierced, and turned around and stabbed directly towards the Spirit Pillar.

Qu Yunwei, who was not far away, was already stunned by this scene, but when she saw the silver spear heading straight towards the Zhenling Pillar, her beautiful eyes flashed with worry, her delicate body shook, and she quickly flew towards the deep pit.

The deep pit was more than one zhang wide, five or six zhang deep, and the ground around it was full of cracks, Qu Yunwei jumped into the pit without the slightest hesitation, rummaging through the dirt.

But she hadn't found anything yet, and a ghostly light flashed out of the dirt, turning into Qiao Yuan's figure beside Qu Yunwei.

Qiao Yuan beckoned, and a bead wrapped in dirt flew out and was put away by him.

"Don't worry, there's a space bead here, I'll be fine. ”

Qiao Yuan looked at Qu Yunwei, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly.

The corners of Qu Yunwei's mouth showed a beautiful arc, nodded, and then she looked up at the pillar that held the sky, and asked softly.

"What's that?"

Qiao Yuan looked up at the Zhenling Pillar that reached the sky, and suddenly realized something in his heart, and after a moment of silence, he spoke.

"That's a life-saving thing given by the Master. ”

said so, but Qiao Yuan didn't think so in his heart, he had tested Duan Tiangu long before entering the Grass Spirit Valley, and knew that Duan Tiangu or the sect was using him.

However, there are some things that cannot be stopped with Qiao Yuan's strength, so he can only be a pawn who doesn't know anything.

Although he was used as a pawn, Qiao Yuan would not regret it, after all, he came here completely out of his own intention.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yuan suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and looked at the place where he had just broken the formation, where a gap had already been broken by the Zhenling Pillar.

Qiao Yuan's eyes flashed, he turned his head to look at the sky in the distance, and then said urgently to Qu Yunwei.

"Let's get out of here!"

After saying that, the two of them jumped out of the pit together, and flew towards the gap that the water wave light curtain had broken.
