Darkness, endless darkness. In this ancient and mysterious abyss, it seems that only darkness is the color of eternity.
I don't know how long it took, Yuan Bao and Master Li fell to the ground, and it was not rocks or mud, but thick fungus vegetation. Under the azure glow of the Blue Sword, the vegetation under his feet seemed to echo each other, flickering with a faint brilliance.
It was pitch black, not even wind. Looking up at the sky, the mouth of the abyss, which is a hundred feet wide, is as small as a sesame seed at the moment.
Yuanbao's right hand was tightly attached to the hilt of the Dragon Slaying Sword, and in this forbidden place for humans, mortal danger would occur at any time. He must not be taken lightly.
There are only a hundred zhang above, and when it reaches the bottom of the abyss, it is unexpectedly wide and boundless. Gradually, the eyes of the two of them adjusted to the darkness here, and it was no longer pitch black, and there was a faint glow around them, all emanating from the thin leaves of the mysterious vegetation under their feet.
Yuan Bao squatted down, gently pulled a handful of leaves, frowned, and said, "This is really a place of great evil, and it is really terrifying to be able to grow blood soul grass." This kind of Blood Soul Grass was rare outside, but here, it grew so luxuriantly. ”
Master Li frowned and said, "What is Blood Soul Grass?"
Yuan Bao explained: "When I was twelve years old, I entered the southwest Leize to practice, I have seen this grass, it is transformed by yin souls, the rhizomes are as red as blood, extremely poisonous, there are so many blood soul grasses at the bottom of this abyss, I don't know how many yin spirits have turned into dust here for thousands of years. ”
Dust to dust, earth to earth, when the yin spirit finally can't stand the torment of loneliness, it will choose to turn into dust and return to the universe. If there is a lot of dust, this strange grass can grow.
Yuan Bao stood up, looked at the unknown darkness in the distance, there seemed to be a green light flickering, and said: "It should be Luoshui City, now the two of us must not be separated, should we first look for Zhao Wuregret and Chu Tianyun, or first find the place where the Divine Sword is sealed?"
Master Li said: "It is important to save people, you can come down at any time with a sword." ”
Yuan Bao nodded and said, "Then they are very likely to be in Luoshui City, let's go over and take a look." ”
Luoshui City, one of the only eight ghost cities left in the world, because the area where it is located is extremely special, for thousands of years, except for cultivators, mortals have not been able to reach here at all.
The Ghost Valley Heavenly Abyss is an insurmountable moat, firmly separating mortal dust from ghosts.
The air here is very humid, and there are no living creatures, if there is, only the glittering yin spirits floating around.
The two of them cautiously swept towards the ghost city that flickered with the ghostly fire, and the little bit of ghostly fire grew bigger and bigger as the two of them approached quickly, more and more, this Luoshui City has evolved for thousands of years, and it has formed a big city that is no less than any city in the world.
The ghost people are a special group between humans and ghosts. Ancient and mysterious.
Ordinary ghost people are no different from mortals, except that their eyes are green, their ears are pointy, and they have two sharp fangs. On the night of the full moon, reveal the bloodthirsty real surname.
The master of the ghost clan has a strong power that is no less than the top cultivation master of the human race.
Eight hundred years ago, the world was in turmoil. The Sixteen Cities of the Ghost Clan united with the Demon Sect to attack the major righteous sects in the Central Plains. The righteous sects were ill-prepared and suffered heavy losses.
At that time, the Demon Sect crossed the Kunlun Mountains and the Tianshan Mountains from the southwest and the northwest wilderness, and divided into two routes, one south and one north. Sixteen ghost towns are spread all over Kyushu, echoing each other from afar.
Every day, there are righteous sects that are destroyed. Every day, countless villages and cities are reduced to ashes.
In the end, the army of the demon sect and the ghost clan gathered in Huangshan, and the Huangshan faction was the big faction in the world at that time, relying on the mountain protection array to deal with the demon sect and the ghost clan.
At that time, mortals in the world, especially those around the Huangshan Mountain Range, could see a large number of cultivating masters of the flying sword going to Huangshan every day.
At that time, there was another sentence to describe: "There are 3,600 ways in the world, and 100,000 saints go to the immortal mountain." ”
The immortal mountain mentioned in this sentence refers to the Yellow Mountain, and the sage refers to the cultivation master of the flying sword.
That battle was dark, and the decisive battle alone lasted for six days. Countless world-shattering Xiuzhen predecessors fell in Huangshan. Until now, some broken immortal magic weapons can occasionally be found from the soil deep in the Yellow Mountain.
In that battle, the righteous path won a great victory. After the head of the Huangshan faction, Fengtian Fairy, invited the ancient divine soldier Mo Evil Divine Sword and the head of Kunlun invited the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, the Demon Sect began to retreat. In the end, the army was defeated like a mountain, and was pursued and killed by the righteous army to Razor and the wilderness.
First cleaned up the Demon Sect, and then in the following years, the righteous path gathered tens of thousands of people, on the grounds that the ghost clan violated the rules of heaven, and attacked the sixteen cities of the ghost clan, and finally in the southern Xinjiang Tianfa ghost city, it was actually encountered by the underworld millions of Yin soldiers borrowed from the yang, the Yin soldiers were disturbed by the yang energy of the yang people, and the millions of Yin soldiers killed people when they saw them, although the disciples of the righteous path sect were strong, but in the face of the army of millions of Yin soldiers, they couldn't resist at all, and there were more than 6,000 cultivators who besieged the Tianfa ghost city at that time, and less than 1,000 people escaped in the end, which can be described as a heavy loss.
Since then, the righteous path no longer dares to besiege the ghost city, first, the strength is greatly damaged and unable to fight again, and second, he is afraid of meeting the Yin soldiers who borrow the way from the yang world.
The ghost clan first suffered heavy losses in Huangshan, and then was broken through eight cities by the righteous path, and the remnants of the ghost clan were less than one-third of the heyday, and they never appeared in the world again for thousands of years, hiding in the eight ghost cities to recuperate.
A thousand years have passed, and this Luoshui City has turned into a big city relying on the dangers of the heavenly abyss, and the population in the city is only afraid of no less than 100,000 people.
Looking at the ancient city that suddenly rose up in the darkness, Yuan Bao and Master Li couldn't help but tremble in their hearts at this moment, even if they had been mentally prepared.
Yuan Bao smiled bitterly and said, "This, this Luoshui City is really powerful, and the other seven ghost cities together are not as big as it." ”
Master Li nodded and said, "This is not the credit of the Ghost Valley Tianyuan, this Tianyuan is extremely yin, and it is most suitable for the development of the ghost people, plus in the past thousand years, the Xiangxi Yimai has reached an agreement with the ghost city and the ghosts and immortals to help them raise corpses, so that they can quietly become the henchmen of the righteous path." Now I'm afraid that even Xiangxi Chases the corpse thinks that this tail is too big, and it is impossible to shake it off. This ghost town is so huge that it is not a problem to live 100,000 people. ”
Yuan Bao shook his head and said: "No matter how big this ghost city is, no matter how many people there are in the ghost clan, I am afraid that it is not the opponent of the Xiangxi lineage, the soul snatching bell in Zhao Wuregret's hand is the treasure of the ghost clan that has been passed down for thousands of years, and it can control any person of the ghost clan, as long as the soul snatching bell is in her hands, the ghost clan people will not dare to be presumptuous." The two of us have too much yang energy, so we should be more careful when entering a ghost town. ”
Master Li glanced at Yuanbao, and his eyes, which were still a little jealous, suddenly became firm at this moment, and he smiled and said, "With you, I will never be afraid." ”
Yuanbao's body shook and looked at Master Li, that beautiful face and bright smile made Master Li, who was originally extremely cold, seem to have transformed into another person.
Both of them smiled, just like the bright smiles they showed when they met again last night, without scruples, without mustard, without burden.
The huge city wall of Luoshui City is more than thirty zhang high, and the city gate is also extremely tall, and hundreds of ghost people with pale skin and ghostly eyes stand on both sides of the city gate. The huge city covering an area of dozens of miles has been banned, and it is impossible for the ghost people to enter and exit from other places except for the gate.
At the gate of the city there was a wide moat, the water of the river was green, and from time to time there were corpses floating up from the bottom of the river, some of the corpses were rotting and swollen, some were not dead, soaked in the strange waters, and from time to time there were screams of weakness.
Yuan Bao and Master Li He had seen this kind of scene, and their faces couldn't help but turn pale.
"These are not stupid people who want to escape from Luoshui City, hey, there are always many stupid people in the world, some people want to escape at the cost of their lives, but some people live well in the prosperous world, but they don't care about life and death, and they run down. Just behind Yuan Bao and Master Li in a stunned distraction, a man's faint voice came from behind them.
The faces of the two changed in unison, and they turned around sharply, but they saw a young man in gorgeous silk holding a folding fan standing about a foot behind the two, looking at the two with a smile.
That young man had pale skin, dark green eyes, and pointed ears, and at first glance he was a member of the ghost clan, but he was afraid that he was still a person with extremely high Taoism and high status, otherwise he would not be able to stand outside Luoshui City so leisurely.
Yuanbao was on guard and said: "In Xia Yuanbao, this is Master Li, the disciple of Yuxuzi, the head of the Shushan faction, and he didn't ask Your Excellency for his name?"
The silk youth seemed to be stunned, and did not answer Yuanbao's words, but looked at the beautiful Master Li, and said: "This beautiful fairy is also from the Shushan faction, what a coincidence, I met a dashing young man named Chu Tianyun before, and he is also from the Shushan faction." But he's not as handsome as me, hey, as the most handsome person in the Three Lives and Six Realms, I really feel helpless, can't people in the world look better?"
Senior Master Li's face changed, and he said, "My senior brother really came down, where is he now?"
The silk youth smiled: "I haven't seen him for two days, I guess...... I guess it's dead. Oops, I forgot to introduce myself, my surname is Mu, and my name is Yuan Shaoqin. “
"Poof......" Yuan Bao was stunned and said: "Aren't you surnamed Mu? Why are you called Yuan Shaoqin?"
The silk youth smiled and said, "I like to call Yuan Shaoqin, do you care about me?"
Yuan Bao's heart moved, and said, "Do you know Zhao Wuregret?"
"You mean no regrets sister? I know you, you are really Yuan Shaoqin, you have hurt your sister without regrets for the past ten years, and you still have the courage to come to me, forget it, I will kill you reluctantly, so that my sister without regrets will not miss you, I can become Mu Zilin, and I don't have to play your role every day. ”
This young man of the ghost clan named Mu Zilin showed two long fangs when he spoke, and suddenly seemed to be very sad, shaking his head and saying: "Hey, what can I do even if I kill you, I can't get out after all, my sister without regrets will only come to see me when she is sad, no, she didn't come to see me, she healed her heart." You caused all of this, Yuan Shaoqin, do you think you deserve to die?"
Suddenly, in Mu Zilin's green eyes, Yuan Bao seemed to feel a trace of sadness, his mood seemed to have been affected, and he became extremely sad, he said ashamedly: "I should die, I deceived my sister who has no regrets, I was a wild child who didn't want my father, and now that the master is gone, what's the point of my life?
Master Li looked at Yuanbao's strange appearance, his face changed slightly, and he was about to speak, but he heard Mu Zilin say with pain on his face: "I can't kill you, my sister who has no regrets about killing you will hate me for the rest of my life, this is the River of Bones, you can jump into it yourself." ”
Yuanbao's mind seemed to be completely controlled by this young man named Mu Zilin, his head was dizzy, and he only felt that it was completely superfluous for him to survive in the world, so he turned around and walked towards the Bone River.
Master Li snorted angrily and shouted, "Demon." ”
Yuan Bao's body trembled, and he suddenly woke up, at this moment he had already walked to the edge of the Bone River, and fell down in two steps at most. Fortunately, Master Li's anger was timely, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Yuan Bao turned his head to look at Mu Zilin, shocked in his heart, and shouted: "I almost caught your way, ghost clan soul dementorship!"
Mu Zilin no longer had the sad and desperate look just now, walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "Good eyesight, but if it weren't for this Master Li Miss Li, she would have given birth to a demon and fallen into this river of bones." ”
Yuanbao's face became cold, this young man of the ghost clan named Mu Zilin was unfathomable in his ghost arts, if he was placed in the world, it would definitely be extraordinary.
He held the dragon slaying sword and said coldly: "Soul dementorship is powerful, but I can kill you with one sword." ”
Mu Zilin didn't refute, his green eyes looked at Yuanbao's sword, nodded and said: "Yes, I'm not sure to take your sword, but I don't feel ashamed, on the contrary, I feel very happy to see your appearance today, because you are not as handsome as me at all, hahaha." ”
