early morning.
Several figures appeared in the open space in front of the wooden building, namely Yuqiu, Wengui, and four foundation-building disciples.
Following the custom here, the disciples guarding Pu Ze were divided into three groups and took turns going out for inspection. The appointed time has arrived, but two people have not shown up yet.
"That's unreasonable!"
Wen Gui paced on the spot and said anxiously: "I told you again and again yesterday not to miss the time, Yu is in charge -" He stopped suddenly, cupped his hands towards Yu Qiu, and said righteously: "Those two disciples This is the first time you have taken on an important responsibility, so you are so presumptuous, please be sure to punish me severely, otherwise where are the rules and regulations of the sect!"
Yuqiu's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.
Suddenly I heard someone whisper: "Two seniors are here..."
Under the hazy skylight, two figures came in a hurry.
It was Zhan Kun who looked middle-aged. He raised his hands repeatedly to apologize and said with a smile: "Oh, I kept everyone waiting for a long time!"
The other young man was naturally Yu Ye, who was still arranging his robes and tying his tokens in a hurry.
Wen Gui was so angry that his beard trembled, and he stretched out his hand and shouted angrily: "You have no respect for your elders, do not listen to discipline, and delay time. Do you know your crime?"
"snort!"
Yu Qiu Xu couldn't help but snorted and was about to have a fit.
Zhan Kun suddenly threw out a warning and said: "I respect my teacher and respect my principles. No matter what crime I am guilty of, it is up to Yu to make a clear decision on the right and wrong!"
Yuqiu took the ring, his face softened a little, and he shook his chin and said: "Be careful on the way, go -"
"As you command!"
Zhan Kun agreed.
"Why……"
Yuqiu was slightly startled, but saw Zhan Kun, Yu Ye and the four foundation-building disciples rising up with swords in their hands. He had no choice but to flick his sleeves and chase after them angrily.
But before the seven figures had gone far, the tokens around their waists flashed with light.
Yu Ye glanced back.
The entire hill is shrouded in a huge formation. With the help of the Immortal Gate Token, you can open the restriction and come and go freely. And that three-story wooden building should be the center of the formation.
In the blink of an eye, Wen Gui was ahead of the pack and said loudly: "This inspection is from Puze to Guangmu, a journey of thousands of miles, and a round trip of half a month. You are not allowed to return in advance, and you are not allowed to act without authorization, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind! "
"Haha, no one dares to disobey Senior Brother Wen's orders!"
Zhan Kun responded with a smile.
"snort!"
Wen Gui glared at him, turned around and flew forward.
Zhan Kun looked at Yu Ye behind him and said through the message: "What do I say? If this guy is allowed to be arrogant, he will inevitably be bullied by him. I will give him a little correction today. I hope he will find his way back!"
"Hey!"
Yu Ye grinned and said, "If Yuqiu doesn't accept the spirit stone, wouldn't you be self-defeating!"
"Haha, human nature cannot escape the word greed."
Zhan Kun is well versed in human nature and said: "Even if there are only fifty spiritual stones, it is enough to bribe a disciple in charge. What's more, it is not easy to stay in this desolate place for ten years. If it is profitable, who will Indifferent!"
Yu Ye nodded secretly.
Deliberately delaying the time today was Zhan Kun's plan. In order to rectify Wengui, he tried to bribe Yuqiu with fifty spiritual stones. I thought it would be difficult for him to achieve his wish, but he succeeded successfully.
Wen Gui may not be a treacherous person, but he is headstrong and conceited and eager for success. And he shouldn't offend Zhan Kun, otherwise he would inevitably be asking for trouble. Although Zhan Kun, Linghu Bei and Xun Yuan come from the remote Qizhou Xianmen, they are all top masters who are good at deceiving and harming others.
Well, no matter where you are, don't offend people easily. Unless you have strong means, you can be fearless of any conspiracy!
An hour later.
Wen Gui ordered him to land and rest.
Since the inspection period is only half a month, there is no rush. But it fell on a sand dune, with the scorching sun above our heads and endless desolation in all directions. Occasionally, a gust of wind and sand would hit, making the sky dark and the earth dark, making it difficult to breathe and breathe.
"Senior Brother Wen, how can you rest like this?"
Zhan Kun complained loudly.
He, Yu Ye and the four foundation-building disciples sat together. Although they were protected by magic, they were still covered in wind and sand, making them look like six natives in a state of embarrassment.
Wen Gui sat alone on the high place of the sand dune and said disapprovingly: "As a person who cultivates immortality, he is thinking about heaven and earth, but he keeps clamoring for the little wind and sand. How unbecoming it is!"
"As the leading senior brother, you can't be considerate of your fellow disciples and find a place to take shelter?"
"Hmph, the situation here is terrible, and we must beware of intrusion by thieves. Otherwise, if trouble occurs, no one will be able to afford it!"
"Haha, alarmist!"
"you……"
Wen Gui closed his eyes in anger.
Zhan Kun and the four foundation-building disciples looked at each other and smiled.
The four foundation-building disciples were all young and strong. They also disliked Wen Gui's reliance on his elders, but they did not dare to contradict him. It was rare for Zhan Kun to help him, so he naturally became a little closer to him.
Yu Ye was looking at a jade slip in his hand.
He had no idea about the dispute between Zhan Kun and Wen Gui. What he focused on was the specific location of Pu Ze and the six Nascent Soul elders of Tianji Sect.
The jade slip, from Laitai, contains not only a detailed map of the Immortal Gate of Yeonju, but also a list of prices for buying and selling elixirs on Buyeo Island.
Tianzhu Mountain is located in Yunxia County, bordering Lelang and Yulin counties in Yanfang, and Rinan and Jiuzhen counties in Lifang. The Tiantong Sect in Lelang County and the Tianfu Sect in Rinan County are both one of the six immortal sects. Tianzhu Mountain is so heavily guarded. Could it be that these two immortal sects are targeted?
The disputes among the immortal sects in Yanzhou are no different from those in Qizhou, but they are in a different place. They are still related to artifacts and human desires.
I checked Lai Tai's elixir price list again and found two familiar names, E'an and Ying Ling, one an elder from the Tianji Sect's Tiansha Hall, and the other an elder from the Tianqitang...
"Senior, look—"
Someone exclaimed.
Yu Ye put away the jade slips.
Halfway up the sky due west, a wall suddenly appeared, gradually reaching a height of thousands of feet and stretching hundreds of miles from left to right. The scene was extremely abrupt and spectacular.
"sandstorm!"
A sword light flew up.
It was Wen Gui. Before he finished speaking, he had jumped into the sky first.
Yu Ye did not dare to neglect, and followed closely with Zhan Kun and the four foundation building disciples. But just as they flew to a height of 1,000 feet, a vast expanse of wind and sand was already whizzing past their feet. It was like a flash flood, or like thousands of beasts rushing forward, spreading for hundreds of miles with an astonishing momentum.
This is a sandstorm!
Yu Ye and Zhan Kun exchanged surprised looks.
Although Qizhou also has Gobi desert sands, it is rare to see sandstorms. I didn't expect the scene to be so spectacular and the power of heaven and earth to be so shocking!
"Find another place to go——"
Wen Gui gave an order and flew forward.
After noon.
Everyone fell among the hills.
The wind and sand have dispersed, but the sky is still filled with dust and haze. There are more spots of green in front of us, but there are thorns and weeds everywhere, large and small stone hills are undulating, and the emptiness and desolation are as before.
"Senior Brother Wen, where is this place?"
Zhan Kun asked.
Wen Gui looked up at the sky, shook the picture slip in his hand, and said, "I can't figure it out either, maybe I'm lost..."
"Hey, how could you get lost?"
"Hmph, when there is a sandstorm, it's inevitable to get lost, so make a big fuss!"
"You are the one leading the way. You have already lost your way after only walking for half a day. What a big joke!"
"How about getting lost? It's only a thousand miles back and forth, and it's just a delay of a few days. You don't have to make any noise here!"
"Haha, Senior Brother Wen, why don't you tell the truth about the route of your inspection? We may be able to help you identify where you are going!"
"No need!"
Zhan Kun's proposal was well-intentioned, but was rejected. That Senior Brother Wen was not only headstrong and arrogant, but also extremely stubborn.
"Stay here for the night!"
Wen Gui sat cross-legged on the hill and said without any doubt: "Yu Ye and the four juniors set up restrictions and lit bonfires. We must be careful to prevent accidents!"
He didn't dare to call Zhan Kun, but he didn't take Yu Ye seriously.
"hehe!"
Zhan Kun smiled and gloated.
He wanted to see Yu Ye angry, and wanted to see Senior Brother Wen embarrassed again. However, Yu Ye remained silent and led several foundation building disciples towards the distance.
"Boring people!"
Zhan Kun was disappointed.
Dusk fell, and then darkness enveloped everything.
On the hill, a bonfire was lit. Without the intrusion of wind and sand, the wilderness returns to silence at night. However, Wen Gui was unwilling to be left alone. He invited the four foundation-building disciples to sit around the fire, took the opportunity to talk about the way of cultivation, and gave them some guidance. Zhan Kun also asked him for skills, but he was sarcastic, which made him angry and helpless.
Yu Ye stayed away from the fire. He sat more than ten feet away, holding two spiritual stones in his hands, breathing and breathing alone.
Although he was stationed in Puze for ten years, excluding the days of patrolling, he only spent six or seven springs and autumns cultivating. Qing Luo said that when he reaches the realm of Yuanying, she will tell him his life experience and take him to the Nine Nether Valley of the Seven Kills Sect. Qing Luo's words might just be an excuse, but he still didn't dare to slack off at all.
This place is not Qizhou, and his opponents are no longer the five masters of Qizhou, but the Yuan Ying elders of Yanzhou and the masters of the realm of deity transformation!
At midnight the bonfire dwindled.
Wen Gui was still full of energy and ordered the foundation-building disciples to take turns guarding the bonfire. But Zhan Kun had long lost the interest in teasing, and hid aside and closed his eyes to rest.
A foundation-building disciple stood up and left, continuing to pick up thorns and weeds for the fire. When he had not gone far, he suddenly screamed.
"ah--"
Yu Ye was still sitting quietly and suddenly opened his eyes.
Wen Gui, Zhan Kun, and the other three foundation-building disciples also stood up and watched in astonishment.
The screaming disciple had disappeared, and there seemed to be an additional hole between the hills dozens of feet away.
"What happened?"
Wen Gui asked loudly.
But no one responded.
Wen Gui urged the three foundation-building disciples: "Go and check as soon as possible -"
"Wait!"
Zhan Kun hurriedly interrupted: "The situation is unknown, how can I allow this junior to venture into danger..."
"boom--"
At this moment, a muffled sound came.
The cave entrance in the distance suddenly collapsed, and the earth and rocks exploded with "bang, bang" and continued to approach, followed by flying sand and rocks and the earth shook.
While Zhan Kun and the three foundation-building disciples were stunned, Wen Gui had jumped into the air first.
At the same time, the burning bonfire exploded with sparks all over the sky, and the hill where it was located collapsed with a "bang", creating a hole.
The three foundation-building disciples were unexpected. One of them managed to escape, but the other two fell into the hole. Zhan Kun grabbed one of them and jumped up. But only three to five feet above the ground, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the depths of the cave and rushed toward him...
Some people died, but not completely...
