Chapter 56: Broken Soul Cliff
"Life is as lonely as snow. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the snow and the vast land, Shang Bai felt such emotions in his heart.
Unknowingly, it has been more than two years since I entered the Mixed Yuan Kendo. From a novice who didn't know anything about Xiuzhen to a well-deserved first person in the Mixed Yuan Kendo Outer Gate Novice Village, he has experienced too much in the past two years.
Others only envy the glory of his senior brother, but they don't know how much effort he has paid and what a price.
Thousands of hearts, nowhere to complain, what remains in the heart, in addition to loneliness, is still lonely.
Standing on a high place, I know that the high place is not cold.
Ding Yingying, who was sitting under a big rock with her knees far away to avoid the wind, did not speak, but said quietly in her heart: "I just look at you quietly......"
Shang Bai stood in the wind for a long time, and finally couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ding Yingying, and said loudly: "What about the people you said? Why haven't you come yet? Are you sure that the place they made an appointment is here?"
"That's right, they made an appointment here, asking the peak of Xianfeng. Ding Yingying said affirmatively.
On a snowy day, standing on the top of the mountain for so long, Shang Bai's nose was a little red from the wind. He was very depressed: "Then why haven't they shown up yet?"
"I don't know!" Ding Yingying suspected, "Maybe they didn't want to go out when they saw that the snow was falling so heavily today." ”
It makes sense.
Shang Bai was even more depressed.
This high mountain, called Wenxian Peak, is already three hundred miles away from the mountain gate of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao. They came here because a few days ago, a few loose cultivators found Ding Yingying, saying that they had a treasure map in their hands and wanted to go somewhere to explore, but their strength was a little insufficient, and they hoped that Ding Yingying could rely on her relationship with the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao to pull a disciple of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao over, and everyone would explore and hunt for treasure together.
What they said was that they didn't have enough strength, but they actually wanted to pull a disciple of the Mixed Yuan Kendo as a protective umbrella. With the Mixed Yuan Kendo disciples here, there is no need to be afraid of being hacked by other monks after finding a heavy treasure. As for whether the disciples of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao will eat black or not, firstly, the reputation of the Great Gate Sect is there, and secondly, as long as one of them joins the Mixed Yuan Kendo disciples, they will not be able to eat a few of them if they want to come.
Ding Yingying passed the word to Shang Bai, and the words "treasure map", "exploration", and "treasure hunting" aroused Shang Bai's deep interest and decided to go out in person. I didn't expect to wait for so long at the agreed time and place, and those few casual cultivators haven't come over.
After waiting for a long time, I heard a very ethereal voice from below: "Hey, is there anyone up there---?-?--?--"
Listening to the sound from afar, I am afraid that there are no two or three miles away from here.
Shang Baiyun breathed enough and said loudly over there: "Someone-person-person-person-person-person-"
Ding Yingying looked at him inexplicably: "Why are you calling that character so loud?"
Shang Bai said angrily: "That's an echo!"
After a while, the ethereal voice came again: "Is it a fellow Daoist of the Mixed Yuan Kendo--?-?"
Shang Bai said loudly: "yes-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-"
Ding Yingying stroked her forehead with her hand, thinking: "This person's brain is broken!"
After a while, the ethereal voice came from below: "Come down------"
Hearing this voice, Shang Bai became even more depressed.
You said you were going to meet on the top of this mountain, but the wind that had been blowing here for so long did not come up, but asked me to go down. Can't you make an appointment to meet at the bottom of the mountain?
For the sake of the treasure map, for the sake of them calling "Mom" and "Dad" a few times, Shang Bai had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart, and walked down the mountain with Ding Yingying sullenly.
Walking to the mountainside, I saw several people standing there waiting. As soon as they met, an old man at the head said, "Oh, with such a big snowfall, why are the two Taoist friends climbing to the top of the mountain? Just wait here." ”
Shang Bai: "Hehe. ”
Ding Yingying: "Haha, we just want to go to the top of the mountain to see the snow scene." ”
The two sides introduced each other, the old man's name was He Tong, he was the owner of the treasure map, and he was also the initiator of this treasure hunt.
There were three people who came with him, one was named Wang Lin, one was named Li Yi, and the other was Yan Daxin, all of whom were cultivators in the middle stage of Qi training.
He Tong saw that Shang Bai was only a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi cultivation, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't dare to fight the idea of the disciple of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao, but he was a little worried that the disciple of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao would fight his own idea. If Shang Bai was also in the late stage of Qi training, he would have to think about whether he should take him to play with him.
If it was also in the late stage of Qi cultivation, the disciples of the Great Gate Sect would definitely have a higher combat power than his kind of loose cultivation.
In the snowstorm, everyone is not good at being verbose. After introducing each other, we got to the point. He Tong took out a yellowed treasure map and pointed at it: "I don't know when this treasure map was found, it fell into the hands of my ancestors more than a hundred years ago, and after several generations of searching, I came here unintentionally some time ago, and I saw the clue - it turned out that the place shown in the treasure map was in this area." Friends of the business, you have been to the top of the mountain, have you seen anything?"
"I think it's referring to the piece over there. Shang Bai pointed to the north, "There is a cliff on the map, which looks exactly like that over there. ”
He Tong nodded and said, "Shang Daoyou looked carefully, it was that place." I've inquired, it's called Broken Soul Cliff. According to the locals, it was not a cliff a long time ago, but it was suddenly cracked one night hundreds of years ago. ”
"He Daoyou should have been over there, right?" Shang Bai didn't believe that He Tong could resist looking at the place pointed to by the treasure map, "I don't know if you see anything?"
"There is a lot of yin qi there, and there are traces of the forbidden law arrangement!" He Tong said with a solemn expression, "I was only alone that day, and I didn't have enough preparation to go deep, so I withdrew back." This time, I also invited all Taoist friends, so I dared to go over and explore. ”
Shang Bai nodded: "I see." ”
No wonder this man didn't take the treasure when he found a place, but invited so many people to go with him.
He Tong looked at everyone and said very seriously: "I have to say it here - I haven't gone deep into it, I don't know how dangerous it is and how good it is." Whether you want to go or not, you have to think about it carefully. I'm running out of time anyway, and I'm not afraid to fight him. I don't know what you think, but if you want to come with me, I welcome you. If you don't want to, I'll say goodbye. ”
Since they came, they definitely didn't want to go back empty-handed. Shang Bai is in possession of the talisman given by Lu Kong City and the eight-sided vajra chain talisman given by Lu Huanyang, and he is not afraid of danger. As for those few casual cultivators, who were able to cultivate to the middle stage of Qi cultivation, which one had not escaped death a few times? They had already tied their heads to their belts and lived their lives, and now that they encountered such an opportunity to hunt for treasures, they naturally would not retreat.
Seeing that no one had withdrawn, He Tong was very satisfied, nodded and said, "Since you have all made up your minds, then let's go!"
It was more than ten miles away in a straight line from them to the place called Broken Soul Cliff. But if you want to go around the mountain road, you have to go around hundreds of miles. Fortunately, all the monks present were monks who had cultivated above the middle stage of Qi cultivation, and each had a walking device. He Tong is a puppet bamboo crane that can fly, Wang Lin is a wooden horse with wings, Li Yi takes out a futon, and Yan Daxin is wearing a pair of flying shoes called Jinghong. Although Ding Yingying does not have a means of transportation, Shang Bai has a hundred beast cars, and it is enough to carry her.
He Tong and the other four saw that Shang Bai had such a powerful substitute for the movement at a young age, and they were all a little envious - the disciples of the Great Gate Sect were so extravagant.
Sitting on the substitute footman, he took a straight path to the Broken Soul Cliff, and the distance of more than ten miles was only a moment or two. When they arrived at the bottom of the Broken Soul Cliff, everyone felt that the cool air was seeping through people, making people feel cold in their hearts, and finally knew what He Tong meant when he said that the yin qi was very heavy.
They didn't feel much cold when the wind blew on the mountain, but now they were on the edge of the cliff at the foot of the mountain, there was no wind or snow, but a chill hit them. That's not because the temperature is low, but because the yin is too heavy.
Among the six people, only Ding Yingying, who had cultivated the "Xuanyin Qingwei Sutra", felt comfortable all over, and wondered: "If I knew that there was such a good place, what spirit stones would I need to cultivate here?"
The exercises contained in the Xuanyin Qingwei Sutra are most suitable for cultivation in places where yin qi is heavy. She had also found a few places with heavy yin qi, but compared to here, it was too far behind.
Shang Bai was wearing a medium-grade defensive magic robe Heavenly Silkworm Clothes, which was a magic robe given by the sect after he entered the Qi Cultivation Realm, the protective function was good, and it was relatively better, but he still felt a little cold, and took out a Sanyang Kaitai Fu made by a member of the Heavenly Machine Society and wore it on his chest, feeling a little better.
He Tong, who had been here once before, had already prepared, took out a bottle of pill, divided one for each person, and said, "This is the Huiyang Pill that I specially bought in Feixian City, it warms the blood and returns to the yang, which is just right here." ”
Shang Bai thanked him, took this pill, and felt a warmth emanating from his heart, which quickly expanded his whole body, and the seeping cool air dissipated without a trace, and he couldn't help but say thank you again.
Wang Lin sighed on the side: "Fortunately, He Daoyou brought this pill, otherwise if I go on, I won't be able to bear it." ”
Several of them took the Huiyang Pill, but Ding Yingying put the pill into her arms and did not take it.
He Channel: "The last time I came alone, I suffered a lot from this yin qi. It's a little better here, the further you go in, the heavier the yin qi becomes. I just walked there that day and stayed for a while, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to withdraw quickly. If I continue to stay, I don't know if I will have my life to go back. ”
He pointed to one place, and everyone looked at him with his fingertips, only to see that there was a deep crypt dozens of zhang on the left. Ten zhang away from the crypt, there is no grass. The yin qi that seeps into the people comes out of that crypt.
