A few people made an appointment to meet in Fang Market two days later, and Yi Xuan hurried back to the academy, and when he entered his hut, he didn't have time to rest, and made all the blank rune paper on hand into spirit runes overnight. The night passed in a flash, Yi Xuan opened a pair of red eyes, and told Ke Zhenyang his plan, Ke Zhenyang considered it again, and finally agreed to Yi Xuan's going, and told Yi Xuan to be more careful, and also keep an eye on Hou Zhiyuan and the three of them not to be strong.

Early that morning, Yi Xuan took advantage of the fact that everyone in the academy had not yet gotten up, went out of the gate early, pasted the magic talisman and rushed to Wulanfang City. By the time they saw the shadow of Fang City, Hou Zhiyuan and the others had been waiting outside for a long time.

The four of them converged into one place, Yi Xuan divided the Shenxing talisman into the three people, still led by Zhu Cailiang, and the four of them began to set off, first going to the deep forest of the heavens for a few miles before turning around and heading towards the dark canyon. From the deep forest to the dark canyon, you have to pass through a relatively gentle wasteland - the northern slope, which is said to have been one of the ancient battlefields of the Great War of Immortals and Demons, where the remains of countless monks were buried. The nearby Demon Cultivation Sect Phantom Sect is famous for its envoys and ghosts, and for this reason, the North Slope is also regarded as a place for disciples to experience by the Phantom Sect, and once outsiders enter, they will inevitably be hostile.

When the four of them stepped into the edge of the north slope, a strange face in a green robe poked out of the grass, looked at the distant figure of the four people, took out a jade talisman, said something to the jade talisman, and then crushed the jade talisman vigorously, and disappeared in the grass again......

In the gloomy hall of the Gongfa Pavilion, a jade talisman shone brightly, reflecting the face of a gloomy owl: "What, they actually ran to the northern slope?" I see, this kid must want to go to the dark canyon to look for purple grass, since I know it, then you are killing yourself!"

After speaking, Jing Luyang took out a dark strange ring, said a few words about the ring, the ring flashed and disappeared, and a dry and cold voice came from it: "It's not difficult for me to make a move, see what price you can come up with?"

Jing Luyang replied: "Three Qi cultivation beginners, one Spiritual Period Great Perfection, for you, it's just a piece of cake, and in the dark canyon where your sect is located, it's just a door-to-door business!"

The cold voice continued: "In that case, the words are not speculative, so forget it!"

Jing Luyang couldn't help but be a little angry: "Then what do you want?"

"It's simple, since the four of them are looking for purple grass, then I will have a pair of immortal fate dispersed, I have an apprentice who is about to be promoted to practice qi, just prepare in advance!"

"You don't want the lion to open his mouth, what is this fairy Yuansan, and where does it need such a price?"

"A high-level monk of the Jade Academy wants to assassinate a disciple of his own sect, this price is not much!"

Jing Luyang pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth and said: "I promise you yes, but you must kill them all and leave no trouble!"

"Don't worry, I'll do it for you!"

Jing Luyang took out a jade bottle from the storage bag and looked at it for a long time, and then used his spiritual power to urge the dark ring, and a grimace in the middle of the ring suddenly appeared a spiritual light, and the jade bottle disappeared when he put it into the spiritual light.

"Xianyuansan has already been given to you, don't you regret it!" Jing Luyang spoke to confirm.

"Quack, you can rest assured......" The cold voice laughed like a ghost.

Jing Luyang froze down, his fingers were forced, and the ring was pinched into powder.

Yi Xuan and the four of them were on guard while hurrying, until it was late, and they only walked dozens of miles along the northern slope, and it was unwise to go deep into the place where ghosts came and went at night, so they found a vacant place to camp and rest for the time being. After nightfall, Yi Xuan looked into the depths of the northern slope, only to see some faint green light dots fluttering in disorder, gloomy and gloomy......

Seeing this, Song Kuan said: "This is just a low-level ghost thing on the periphery of the North Slope, unconscious and only acting on instinct, it is said that there are thousand-year-old ghost kings and corpse kings in the depths of the North Slope, and they have commanded many ghost soldiers and ghost generals, that is a powerful abnormality, fortunately, these ghosts seem to be subject to some kind of prohibition and cannot leave the North Slope, or it must be a catastrophe for our monks." ”

Yi Xuan said: "Then tomorrow we should hurry along the edge of the north slope, I didn't dare to listen to these ghost stories since I was a child, and I always felt a chill in my back......"

Hou Zhiyuan said: "Hahaha, you little ghost usually jumps out, but you are actually afraid of these low-level ghosts......"

Yi Xuan said embarrassedly: "Senior brother, don't make fun of ......"

At dawn the next day, the four of them took their tents and continued on their way. Although Hou Zhiyuan made fun of Yi Xuan for being timid, he was actually a little frightened by the ghosts on the Beipi Slope, so he took a long road and detoured along the edge of the Beibi Slope. Although it is daylight, the northern slope is still thick with fog and no sunlight, and if you really go deep into it, I am afraid that you will not be able to go far and lose your bearings.

Zhu Cailiang held the purple feather stick tightly with both hands, opened the way in front, and used the purple feather stick to investigate the tall weeds and bushes first, while Song Kuan had been checking the direction with a compass in the middle, constantly adjusting the direction of walking, after Hou Zhiyuan and Yi Xuan broke off left and right, Yi Xuan couldn't help but look behind him, and always felt that there were ghosts sneaking to follow.

After a day of walking without danger, the four of them finally bypassed the northern slope and came to the entrance of the dark canyon on the other side. In fact, from the beginning of the deep forest, the terrain gradually rises along the north slope, and here is the endless lofty mountains, and the dark canyon is a passage sandwiched in this vast mountain, the width of the left and right is only two or three miles, and the other side of the canyon is where the sect of the Phantom Sect is located.

Worried about encountering the Demon Sect disciples of the Phantom Sect here, the four of them found a relatively secret cave four or five miles away from the canyon and settled down. There are a few gaps in the cave that lead to the top of the mountain, the air is not stuffy, and a few people do not dare to light a fire, but they just eat some dry food at random, make an appointment for the rotation of the vigil, and seize the time to recuperate.

Yi Xuan couldn't calm down, so he went to the entrance of the cave to chat with Hou Zhiyuan, who was keeping vigil. In the dead of night, there was no sound except for birds and insects, and the two lowered their voices to talk.

Yi Xuan: "Brother Hou, have you ever met a disciple of the Phantom Sect?"

Hou Zhiyuan: "A long time ago, I met a few times by chance, but fortunately, I found it early and avoided it in time." ”

Yi Xuan said curiously: "It is said that this Phantom Sect cultivator has strange methods and can control ghosts, what is the situation?"

Hou Zhiyuan said angrily: "This Phantom Sect is a great sect of demon cultivation, and the corresponding method can control the soul and refine the corpse, plus the monk himself, once he is opposed, he needs to fight one against two, which is extremely difficult." ”

Yi Xuan nodded and said, "There are indeed some doorways, we must be careful and try not to contact them!"

Hou Zhiyuan said: "In short, we try to be careful, once we encounter a demon cultivator, we must not entangle, after all, this demon cultivation method is ruthless and vicious, and it cannot be prevented......"

Yi Xuan said: "Little brother can save it, but my spirit runes and magic weapons are not vegetarian......

Hou Zhiyuan kicked Yi Xuan and scolded: "Hurry up and go to sleep, and come out to rotate later......"
