Tianhong City is the center of gravity of the world, the famous city of eternity, there are seventeen ancient teleportation arrays leading to the other world, not to mention the ordinary teleportation arrays that are now transmitted across states, you know, even the headquarters of the Immortal Society that controls the teleportation array is in this Tianhong City.

Haizhou, where Lingxiao Sect is located, is located in the south of the main boundary of Hongmeng, bordering the sea, separated from Tianhong City by more than a dozen states, and the road is no less than millions of miles. In other words, Du Tiejian and Shen Shi had to take the teleportation circle more than a dozen times before they could return to Haizhou. However, compared to the long distance in between, this little trouble is simply negligible.

When Shen Shi was twelve years old, when he left from Yinzhou to go to Lingxiao Sect, he took the teleportation circle for the first time in his life, and that time suffered a lot, but time passed, although he was delayed in the demon world for three years, but after all, he still had a little Taoism in his body, and his tolerance to the teleportation circle was greatly improved, and there was no previous embarrassment, of course, the impact was still there, and after riding several times in a row, he still needed to take a break.

In contrast, Du Tiejian is much more relaxed, he has always looked like he has nothing to do, leisurely and relaxed, even the little black pig that Shen Shi followed him, for some reason, it was actually a relaxed appearance, which made Shen Shi speechless.

Stop-and-go, even with rest and teleportation, they set off from Tianhong City in the early morning, and finally returned to Haizhou Liuyun City in the afternoon.

When the familiar scene in front of him appeared again, although he had only seen it once, Shen Shi felt as if he had been looking forward to it for a long, long time. Liuyun City is as prosperous as it was back then, although after seeing the world-famous city scene of Tianhong City, Liuyun City gives people a much smaller feeling, which is much inferior, but this city gives Shen Shi another unexpected sense of intimacy, even if it is ...... In fact, he really came here once.

The more than a dozen teleportations made Shen Shi look a little tired, but Du Tiejian didn't mean to rest, but walked straight out of the city with Shen Shi, looking at his appearance, he was ready to return to the Lingxiao Sect immediately.

Shen Shi naturally will not have any additional objections to this, but after all, this is Liuyun City, Haizhou, and the core territory of the Lingxiao Sect, one of the four righteous in the world, even though there are many cultivators on the boundary of Haizhou, but which one is not the snort of the Lingxiao Sect, and Du Tiejian, as the eldest disciple of the Lingxiao Sect in charge of Huaiyuan Zhenren, the most powerful among the younger generation of disciples, has only walked far in this Liuyun City, and several groups of people actually recognized him and came over to say hello.

Among them, since there are other cultivation sects, there are also ordinary casual cultivators, and even the leaders of some shops in the city, etc., all of them are close and enthusiastic to this promising Du Tiejian, and it also makes Shen Shi on the side initially see another side of his connections that Senior Brother Du has never shown before.

It's just that it's a connection, it doesn't look like it, it's all other people who are warm and kind, Du Tiejian didn't make his eyes above the top, but to everyone who came to say hello, he was grinning and smiling, and he sent it away in a few words, and all the way down, no one had a deep talk with him.

Shen Shi stood quietly aside, never interjecting when Du Tiejian was talking to others, just watching calmly, occasionally with a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

Du Tiejian would occasionally glance at him, but seeing that he was silent, he didn't say anything to him, but after contemplating the moon on the top of the Great Wall of Tianhong City last night, he faintly felt that this Senior Brother Shen seemed to have quietly changed a little.

※※※

Out of the city, go straight to the sea, in Kankan to see the rippling waves of the vast and boundless sea, the surrounding traces of people are gradually reduced, the sea is far away with clouds and mist, like a dream, as if there is a fairy mountain standing.

Du Tiejian glanced back at Shen Shi, the smile on his face was put away, and he said, "Senior Brother Shen, we have returned to the mountain." ”

Shen Shi looked into the distance, was silent for a moment, and then nodded heavily.

Du Tiejian made a move, the black giant sword flew up suddenly, hanging in the air three feet in the air, Du Tiejian pulled Shen Shi casually, and jumped onto the sword with the little black pig, and then the sword trick was drawn, the black sword slowly rose, and at both ends of the sword body, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, like a huge ship sailing by, flying towards the endless sea.

In the past days, Shen Shi had also seen other monks drive magic weapons to fly in the sky, such as Wang Gan, such as Gan Wenqing, and some other monks with advanced Taoism, all of them were dashing and fluttering like immortals, but no one would be like Du Tiejian, the flying of the sword was so shocking, as their speed increased, the black giant sword roared like thunder in the air from time to time, as if it was like a raging beast roaring at the sky of the sea, extremely arrogant. Fortunately, it is on this uninhabited sea, otherwise if it is in the densely populated Liuyun City, the movement will be too big.

Shen Shi somewhat understood the reason why this Senior Brother Du often had to go outside the city to resist the sword along the way, he had also flown with him several times before, but the speed had never been as fast as today, and it was probably because Jin Hongshan was in front of him, and even he was a little anxious in his heart.

The rumbling thunder roared above the sea, disturbing countless seabirds and fish, scattering and fleeing, and the clouds pierced through the fog, and the huge immortal mountain in the depths of the sea finally appeared in front of Shen Shi's eyes again.

It's been three years, and after three years of leaving, Shen Shi finally saw Jin Hongshan again.

For a moment, he even had the feeling of returning to the twelve-year-old boy, when Wang Gen was on the Baixian Rock, and took them to look up at this majestic mountain, but on this day, Du Tiejian took him straight to the sky, through countless buildings and halls, flying higher and higher, faster and faster.

Unconsciously, Shen Shi suddenly felt that his breathing was a little difficult, and the temperature around him was dropping sharply, as if he was in the cold ice, the little black pig at his feet let out a few low wails, and seemed to feel very uncomfortable, and at the edge of the black giant sword, a few white ice crystals had already condensed.

However, the Jinhong Mountain in front of you is still verdant, and the mountain is majestic and goes straight into the sky, and it is still impossible to see the end of the mountain.

A few bells and drums are clear, a few cranes are singing and the dragon is chanting, and suddenly it comes down from the clouds, which makes people feel shocked, and after a while, they see a vast sea of clouds, like a sea hanging upside down in the sky, boundless, and the black giant sword is taking them, rushing towards this deep and bottomless cloud.

The little black pig let out a somewhat frightened chirp, and Shen Shi's face was a little pale, but his expression was still calm and calm, his eyes were blazing, and he looked straight ahead.

"Whew!"

With a loud bang, they had entered the clouds, and in an instant they only felt a strong wind in their ears, a white expanse, as if they could not see anything else except the white clouds and mist all around, only the speed of the wind moving forward, as if it was getting wilder and wilder, as if it was about to tear everything apart in the next moment.

The next moment, the moment has come!

Like a silent thunderclap, the eyes suddenly lit up, and the dazzling light was like a golden rainbow, shining on the endless heaven and earth.

The black giant sword leaped out from the depths of the clouds, like a black giant fish jumping out of the sea, drawing a black dazzling wave mark in the endless sky, and even brought up a cloud and mist from the sea of clouds and swayed it, like a splash of water, scattered between the heavens and the earth.

Dazzling golden crow hangs above the west sky, the light is magnificent, above the sea of clouds, a giant peak suddenly comes out, proud of the heaven and earth, there is a long rainbow through the sky, the golden light is scorching, flashing brightly, hanging on the top of the peak, looking at it like a fairyland cave sky, shocking people's hearts.

The famous mountain of Jinhong is in front of you.

※※※

At this point, the black giant sword slowed down slightly, slowly approaching Jinhong Mountain, the temperature above the sea of clouds was quite low, Shen Shidao was not enough, and his body was even trembling slightly at this moment, but he didn't realize it, he just stared at the top of the immortal mountain in the distance, and the immortal palace above the majestic peak.

The giant sword approached the Golden Rainbow Mountain, about a distance of about a hundred zhang, Du Tiejian suddenly paused, although everything in front of him was formless and colorless as usual, but Shen Shi obviously felt that the black giant sword seemed to be stagnant, and the next moment, a huge divine thought seemed to merge with this immortal mountain, sweeping across their bodies.

The divine thought was so majestic and immense, it almost made people feel a sense of breathlessness, and Du Tiejian's expression was also solemn, but he didn't make any movements, just stood quietly in front of him, letting this divine thought sweep over.

After a while, this vast divine thought disappeared, and the feeling of stagnation also dissipated, Du Tiejian nodded, arched his hand towards the depths of the Golden Rainbow Mountain, and didn't know what to salute solemnly, so he urged the black giant sword again and continued to fly forward.

The ancient trees on the top of Jinhong Mountain are verdant, several halls have been built in the clouds, and there are many pavilions dotted among them, but compared with the huge mountain, it still seems small, but it was not until Du Tiejian took Shen Shi to the ground, facing one of the palaces, Shen Shi found that the building here is actually quite majestic and tall, not to mention anything else, just the plaque in front of him says that the hall of the Yunxiao Palace, it looks at least as high as more than fifty zhang, wide and majestic, and the momentum is extraordinary.

The pine and cypress forests around the Yunxiao Palace, a bluestone road leads to the pine forest, two beast kisses four-legged large copper furnaces are placed on the flat bluestone flat ground outside the hall, and the light smoke floats up slowly, which adds a bit of tranquility to the forest hall where there are no people to move around.

Du Tiejian glanced at the hall and said to Shen Shi: "This is the place where my master Huaiyuan Zhenren retreats on weekdays, and few people come, so it is so quiet." Later, when I go in and report it, he should ask you something, and you can answer honestly. ”

Shen Shi nodded and said, "Yes, I understand." ”

Du Tiejian didn't say anything more, let Shen Shi wait in His Highness, walked up the thirty-six stone steps by himself, arrived outside the Yunxiao Palace, and then pushed open the thick and tall hall door.

When the door of the temple was opened, and he looked inside, he suddenly paused, as if he had seen something, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, but then he walked in anyway.

Shen Shi waited quietly outside the hall, vaguely nervous in his heart, but more of an inexplicable expectation and a little excitement, the person who is now in this hall is the immortal who stands at the peak of the true Hongmeng cultivation realm?

Not long after Du Tiejian entered, he walked out, stood on the stone steps and beckoned to Shen Shi, Shen Shi walked over, Du Tiejian shrugged his shoulders and said, "You go in by yourself." ”

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, glanced at Du Tiejian, in his heart he thought that Du Tiejian would also go in with him, but he didn't expect that Huaiyuan Zhenren didn't seem to have this meaning. However, he did not intend to have any doubts about the high-ranking master of the real person, and with some trepidation, he took a deep breath, walked to the half-hidden tall temple door, and walked in, his figure disappearing into the shadow of the temple gate.

Du Tiejian stretched his waist, sat down on the stone steps, and put the black giant sword beside him casually, but he didn't mean to leave after completing the task, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he was guarding the palace door.

Glancing at the bluestone path under the stone steps, he saw the pine forest in the distance, and a few birdsongs came, Du Tiejian was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled faintly, and then heard a few humming sounds next to him, he turned his head to look, but it was the little black pig who came out of nowhere, with a few pine needles on his head, and it seemed that he had just run into the pine and cypress, but on his mouth was holding a half-foot-long red grass, chewing there non-stop.

Du Tiejian smiled dumbly, watching the little black pig turn around twice, as if he was a little anxious because he couldn't see Shen Shi, so he beckoned to it and said with a smile: "Your master has entered the hall, come out after a while, let's wait here." ”

The little black pig ran over when he heard this, jumped and ran to the top of the stone steps, although the action was a little clumsy, but the speed was not slow, and it was cute to look at, Du Tiejian smiled and reached out to touch its head, but the little black pig snorted twice, avoided it in a flash, and then sat next to the black giant sword, lying on the ground, and leisurely chewing the spiritual grass in his mouth.

Du Tiejian shook his head with a smile, and didn't say anything more, the pines and cypresses became a forest, silent.

※※※

After Shen Shi walked into the Yunxiao Palace, he only felt that his eyes were slightly darkened at first, and then he saw eight huge pillars towering above the hall, supporting the hall in the direction of gossip, the hall was flat, the gold bricks were like mirrors, and the shadows could be faintly reflected, and in the depths of the hall, a few candles burned quietly, under the firelight, several simple wooden futons were placed on the ground, but there were two figures sitting there.

Shen Shi was taken aback, for some reason there were two people here, but after he entered the hall, the two eyes in the distance seemed to look over, although they were formless and substantial, but Shen Shi felt that he had a feeling of being completely seen through in an instant from the inside out.

He held his breath, held back the excitement and apprehension in his heart, stepped forward quickly, knelt on the ground two feet away from the two figures, kowtowed slightly, and said, "Disciple Shen Shi, I have seen the real person in charge of the sect, and ......."

After a while, he only heard a calm but gentle voice, which sounded in front of him, and his tone was calm and seemed carefree, and he said indifferently:

"Old man Huaiyuan, this is Elder Huoye, the uncle of this sect. ”

Shen Shi's body shook, and even his breathing stopped in an instant, his face was prostrate on the ground, and he didn't lift it for a long time. Even if he had prepared before, he never expected that he would usher in such two big people who looked up like mountains.

Huaiyuan Zhenren is the head of the sect, and his fame moves the world, needless to say, and the identity of Elder Huo Ye is even more extraordinary, he is the only elder of the Lingxiao Sect who has cultivated to the Tiangang Realm, and in terms of seniority, he is the uncle of Huaiyuan Zhenren, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the treasure of the Lingxiao Sect.

At this moment, the two of them were sitting in front of them, and the invisible pressure seemed to be stronger than the cold above the nine clouds outside Jinhong Mountain.

Elder Huoye didn't say anything, and after a while, he only heard Huaiyuan Zhenren say calmly in front of him:

"Get up, we have something to ask you. ”

Shen Shi took a few deep breaths, barely controlled his mood and emotions, and then got up slightly, looking up, under the candle flame, above the two futons, the person on the left was dressed in a Taoist robe, his eyes were like stars, and his bearing was like a fairy with a Taoist bone, looking like a first-class immortal, obviously it was Huaiyuan Zhenren, and the person sitting on the right was slightly back, and his body was mostly hidden in the shadows, and he could only see the white hair and his complexion.

Shen Shi didn't dare to look at it presumptuously, and stood aside respectfully, and after the strange starry gaze in Huaiyuan Zhenren's eyes glanced at him, he didn't have any nonsense, and said directly:

"Where have you been in the past three years?"

Shen Shi's body suddenly stiffened.
