――Lingwu Grand Canyon, located in the west of Xianyuan City, more than 200 miles.

It is shrouded in thick fog all year round, scattered and gathered, and unpredictable. When the fog cleared, the valley suddenly opened up. Suddenly, a mist rushed in, and I could barely see my fingers. It is said that there are all kinds of low-level demon beasts in the Grand Canyon, which are extremely threatening, and even monks in the foundation building period do not dare to enter the valley easily.

In the Grand Canyon, stone forests, extinct volcanoes, black lava rocks, abyssal cracks, lakes, rivers, and towering ancient trees can be seen everywhere. On both sides of the canyon, the cliffs are as high as a thousand feet, straight to the sky, thrilling.

On the opposite side of the Lingwu Grand Canyon is the Lingwu Mountain Range, where the major sects are entrenched

In Xianyuan City, the crowd was surging, and tens of thousands of monks took the documents and headed towards the Lingwu Grand Canyon. There are many more monks, who don't know that this year's mission documents have been distributed three days in advance, and they are coming to this plateau Gobi from hundreds of countries in a hurry to enter Xianyuan City.

Ye Qin's nine-person team also followed the large group of low-level cultivators and rushed out of Xianyuan City.

They didn't say much, they just flew and rushed in the direction of the Spirit Mist Grand Canyon. The spiritual objects in the Grand Canyon, whoever grabs it first will get it. The task documents of each major sect are the same as whoever completes the task first will admit whom, and the number of disciples is limited and the recording will be closed. Although the number of admissions from each major school is very small, almost one out of a thousand, but there is still a glimmer of hope.

No one dared to delay, and they each performed thaumaturgy, light body techniques, wind control techniques, flying legs, even flying and jumping, and even the light skills of secular martial artists were used, and there were many of them. Those monks who were not good at resisting the wind were the most unlucky, and they were left behind by the large team in the blink of an eye.

Ye Qin's team was the same, they had only been out of the city for more than ten miles, and they quickly saw the difference between the speed of the nine people flying and running.

Xu Qing was the fastest, he had already taken off the set of spiritual armor that weighed more than a thousand catties, and changed into a light and flexible white cloth shirt. However, he still carried his golden sword at his waist, which was not heavy and did not affect his speed.

followed by Feng Man and Wu Qin, two sisters.

The remaining five or six people did not differ much in speed.

The slowest runner is the burly and tall Xia Laohei, who takes a big stride, his feet are flowing with clouds and water, one step is three or four feet, and he does not look bulky, and he is much more clever than the light skills of secular warriors. But compared to the wind resistance skills of the rest of the team, it was still a few points worse after all.

Everyone had to slow down a little so that Xia Laohei could keep up.

Ye Qin only took out five or six points of strength, performed the wind control technique, and ran unhurriedly, with Zhang Zhe, Fan Jiasheng and others. And did not rush to the front.

He occasionally glanced at the huge crowd of monks behind him, secretly anxious. They were the first to leave the city, but there were three or five thousand people. With so many monks, how can they collect spiritual herbs after they arrive at the Lingwu Grand Canyon? Could it be that they rush up in a hurry, each fighting by means?

After running for about a short while, I left Xianyuan City for more than ten miles or so.

Xu Qing, the leader of the team, frowned, obviously thinking of this question. He suddenly changed direction, no longer following the monks of the brigade towards the nearest Spirit Mist Grand Canyon, but rushing towards the lower reaches of the Grand Canyon.

Xu Qing turned around, and the other eight members of the team also turned around without hesitation, broke away from the group of monks, and went downstream. Although they were puzzled in their hearts and didn't know where Xu Qing wanted to go, Xu Qing was a veteran who had done more than ten of these sect tasks, and he would not lead the wrong way.

"Cousin, where are we going?"

Zhang Zhe saw that they had separated from the group of monks, and asked in confusion.

"The Lingwu Grand Canyon is millions of miles long, and there are at least hundreds of passages into the canyon, so there is no need to compete with so many people for the nearest passage. I'm going to take you to a passage that is a little farther away, but less crowded. ”

Xu Qing replied casually, stopped talking, and just ran away.

The crowd didn't want to ask too much, so they ran along.

It took half a day to come to a cliff pass in the Spirit Mist Grand Canyon.

At this pass, there were already three or four teams of monks, occupying the best position near the Grand Canyon, waiting here, ready to enter the valley.

Xu Qing stopped, seemed to know one of the squads, laughed, greeted the leader of the squad, and then occupied a place several zhang in size near the pass as a place for the team to rest

Ye Qin came to this place for the first time, standing on the edge of the cliff of the Grand Canyon, overlooking it, the entire Grand Canyon was like a winding giant snake entrenched in the earth, and the snake's head and snake tail could not be seen on the left and right, and there was no bottom.

Although he had heard of the Lingwu Grand Canyon for a long time, when he came here today, he was inevitably very surprised, and came to the edge of the cliff to watch the situation in the valley.

Zhang Qiao came to his side and chirped excitedly: "Brother Ye, look at this cliff, there seems to be a path leading to the bottom." ”

Zhang Zhe walked over, looked at the Grand Canyon, and said with a smile: "That must be the ancient path opened up by the senior monks." It is said that this kind of ancient trail can lead all the way to the bottom of the cliff, and it is very convenient to go up and down the Grand Canyon. However, only the top few zhang of this ancient trail are now clearly visible, and after a few zhang, it is completely shrouded in the clouds of the Grand Canyon. There are many monsters and insects in the canyon, hidden in the clouds and mist, which is difficult to guard. Now no one dares to go down now. ”

Ye Qin asked, "Then when can we go down to the valley?"

Zhang Zhe shook his head and said, "I don't know, it's probably only a day or two." Every autumn around October, there will be a strong cold north wind will pour into the Lingwu Grand Canyon, through the entire Grand Canyon, blowing away all the fog in the valley. The strong winds will last for almost a month. During this month, the canyon is clearly visible, and it is the best time to enter the valley. Before the arrival of this strong wind, each major sect will issue a task document for selecting disciples. This year, the documents of the various sects came down a few days earlier than last year. It is estimated that in the next two days, this strong wind will blow into the valley. ”

"Unless it is a monk above the foundation building stage, no one dares to enter the valley before the fog clears. We, the monks in the Qi refining period, can only wait for the right time and place, and wait for the wind to blow. ”

They were talking.

At the pass, the crowd of monks gradually became noisy.

Ye Qin turned around and found that it had only been such a short period of time, and the team of monks who had come here had increased to more than ten teams, fifty or sixty monks.

After a large number of monks came to the pass, they took up a good position at the mouth of the valley and waited for the wind to blow in the Grand Canyon.

Ye Qin thought about it, and instead of standing on the edge of the cliff to continue watching, he returned to the territory where the team was located with Zhang Qiao, Zhang Zhe and others, closed his eyes and meditated, recovered the mana consumed on the way, and prepared to enter the valley at any time.

Although this passage into the Grand Canyon is remote, in just one day, there are as many as five or six hundred immortal cultivators from the third layer of the Qi Refining Stage to the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period, at least hundreds of small teams.

"Hmph, a group of milky little hairy children dare to come to the Grand Canyon to die! Get out of the way, this place is in the driver's eye. ”

An old man in a green shirt at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Period, with a team of three or four people, floated to the place where he stopped. After looking at the teams closest to the passage, his gaze finally fell on the nine-person team led by Xu Qing. If nothing else, it was because Xu Qing's team was the weakest, and most of the team members were only at the fourth level of the Qi refining period.

Xu Qing tilted his face and looked at the old man in the green shirt, sneered, and unhurriedly took out a badge with three cyan swords from his arms and hung it on the white shirt on his chest. Holding the hilt of the sword at his waist in one hand.

"Someone from the Xianyuan City Patrol?"

The old man in the green shirt changed his face and took a step back. His expression changed several times, a little ugly, weighed it for a while, and finally took his head to find a place elsewhere without looking back.

After the old man in the green shirt walked away, Xu Qing snorted disdainfully: "The ninth layer of the Qi refining period is very remarkable, and I don't look at how many catties and taels I have, and I have the ability to dare to provoke the people of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance!"

Zhang Zhe, Xia Laohei and the others widened their eyes. A ninth-level monk in the Qi refining period was scared away by Xu Qing like this?

Feng Manjiao smiled: "Oh, Brother Xu." That old man is at most the head of a small family, if you scare him with the token of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, can he not run away. However, if you encounter the Great Cultivation Immortal Family, this token may not be able to scare the other party. ”

Xu Qing shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I can't be scared, it's a big deal to change positions." But you have to be careful, they don't dare to touch me, but they don't dare to touch me, but they may not be polite to ordinary casual cultivators like you. After entering the valley, there will inevitably be strife, and it is necessary to be cautious. ”

Ye Qin looked at it coldly.

The entire pass, within a few miles, was permeated with a strange atmosphere.

He noticed something strange.

Between the old and the newcomers, they despise each other. It is also easy to understand that the old man discriminates against the newcomer who is too tender and often drags his feet. The newcomers are not angry with the old man and pretend to be senior.

The most bizarre thing is that the people of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance and the Cultivation Immortal Family, they are obviously divided into two major strengths in the valley, with malice and hatred for each other, and the insults come and go, and it seems that they may draw their swords at any time. But there are very few who actually do it.

Not far away, a bearded man with a big knife and a young family monk with a beautiful face, the two of them were separated by dozens of feet, shouting and scolding.

The big knife man spat and shouted loudly: "This Grand Canyon is our scattered cultivation territory, what are you doing here? That posterior boy, there is a kind of one-on-one confrontation with Lao Tzu, don't call your family too!"

The many scattered cultivators present immediately responded loudly.

"Who's going to go with you, you're going to have to go with everyone. I single out a family to pick you out, or you single out a family to me. Besides, who stipulated that this was a place for loose cultivation, so why couldn't people from our families come? Is it stipulated by the major sects, or is it stipulated by yourself? If the rules set by the various major sects, I will leave without saying a word. If you set the rules, then sorry, I don't know which onion you are. ”

The young family monk retorted sharply. Those monks from the immortal cultivation families of various countries cheered loudly.

Ye Qin listened quietly, and a lot of information was revealed in these abuses.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally looked at the Grand Canyon and whispered to himself: "The root cause of the conflict between the Scattered Cultivation Alliance and the Family Alliance is, in the final analysis, to compete for the spiritual objects of the Spiritual Mist Grand Canyon. It's not enough for the Immortal Cultivator family to have their own clan's territory in various countries, and they even went to the Lingwu Grand Canyon to compete with the scattered cultivators, which is a bit excessive!"

Ye Qin is also a casual cultivator, so he naturally stands on the side of casual cultivation.

Xu Qing glanced at him in surprise and said slowly: "Junior Brother Ye's surname is very good. But the real bane is not this Spiritual Mist Grand Canyon. ”

Ye Qin said: "What is that?"

Xu Qing sneered: "At the beginning, with the joint intervention of the various sects, the Scattered Cultivation Alliance and the Family Alliance quelled the chaotic bloody war, and there was an agreement: the Immortal Yuan City was placed under the jurisdiction of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, and at the same time, the countries were assigned to the Immortal Cultivation Family to occupy. However, this Lingwu Grand Canyon does not belong to Xianyuan City, nor does it belong to any country, and its belonging has not been clearly stipulated, leaving a bane. Therefore, the Immortal Cultivation Family, at this time of year, has to use this excuse to come to the Grand Canyon and compete with the scattered cultivators for spiritual objects. Monks and family monks often fight over this. You say, 'What is the root of this?'

Ye Qin was stunned for a moment, there was such a thing.

With the strong strength of the various sects, they could completely decide the ownership of this Spirit Mist Grand Canyon, but they didn't do it. If this is the case, I am afraid that the various sects are deliberately leaving this place that is easy to cause trouble, so that the scattered cultivators and the immortal cultivation families can fight. They can easily control the Scattered Cultivation Alliance and the Immortal Cultivation Family.

His vest was cold, this hand was vicious enough, worthy of being a sect of cultivating immortals, not only was his cultivation strength strong, but he was also outstanding mentally.

Xu Qing saw that Ye Qin was thoughtful, and he didn't say anything.

The scolding war between the casual cultivators and the family monks continues to heat up. The monks have a blood feud between the various teams, and when they meet, they will directly fight and kill here.

The rest of the team watched coldly, adding fuel to the fire from time to time, and no one went up to dissuade them. Joke, now everyone wants to go into the valley to take spiritual objects. If you die a monk, you will have one less competitor, who will dissuade you?

Of course, this kind of fighting only happens between a few teams. Most of the teams are in their respective territories, accumulating energy and preparing to enter the valley. Completing the task and joining the sect is the right thing to do

There was no wind, and the fog in the Grand Canyon did not dissipate for a long time.

The Qi Refining Stage cultivators waited for a day, when it got dark, they built a bonfire, roasted some meat, and gradually became bored. Occasionally, you can see all kinds of brilliant swords and rainbows in the pitch-black sky, which swept by, and disappeared into the Lingwu Mountains in the distance at an extremely fast speed.

The underground "ants" looked at the various lights that flashed in the sky from time to time, and they were extremely envious. It was a monk above the foundation building period, who controlled the magic weapon and flew with the sword. These Qi Refining Stage cultivators could only look up and drool.

"The monks of the Qi refining period 'climb' on the ground, and the monks of the foundation building period fly in the sky. The interval is like the next day! Our generation should work hard to build a foundation as soon as possible. Such a supernatural power that flies into the sky and the earth, can be learned in one day, and it is enough in this life. ”

An old monk in the Qi refining period, with his hands behind his back, looked at the sky and sighed.

All the Qi Refining Stage cultivators nodded their heads like chickens pecking rice, all of them rubbing their hands, and secretly made up their minds that they must strive to join the sect in order to have the greatest chance of successfully building a foundation. Thinking like this, they looked at the other teams with more and more hostility.
