As a hidden sect, the Yinxian Sect is hidden in the Hongmu Waters at the junction of Qingzhou and Xuzhou.
Now Chang Yue and his party are going to Honghe City, a border city in Xuzhou.
Red River City is close to the Red Mother Waters, and is considered a place where martial arts are very prosperous. Because it is close to the Red Mother Waters where you can practice, a large number of warriors gather there all year round.
The Red Mother Waters is an extremely dangerous place. It is full of swamps and is filled with the miasma of the swamp that persists all year round. The miasma is inhabited by countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants. It is very deadly. If you are not careful, you may end up with no body left. .
Ordinary warriors simply don't dare to go deep.
It is precisely because of the special environment of the Red Mother Waters that it has bred a large amount of cultivation resources, so that there is an endless stream of warriors who venture there.
The Hidden Immortal Valley where the Hidden Immortal Sect is located is in the deepest part of the Red Mother Waters.
How do ordinary people know that the Red Mother Waters they rely on for survival were actually only formed under the influence of the Yinxian Sect's sect-protecting formation!
According to Aunt Feng, the sect-protecting formation of the Yinxian Sect has an extraordinary origin and was left behind by an ascended immortal from the sect.
Of course, it remains to be verified whether it is true or not. It has been so long ago that it is impossible to verify whether there were any immortals in the history of the Yinxian Sect.
After leisurely following Cangyue Pavilion's caravan for more than a month, Chang Yue and Aunt Feng finally arrived at Red River City.
In the black market of Red River City, in front of the Cangyue Pavilion branch, Chang Yue and Aunt Feng were saying goodbye to the leader of the caravan.
"Thank you for escorting us all the way."
The leader of the caravan is a young man in his twenties, a blue-clothed disciple of Cangyue Pavilion named Zhong Ming. He was ordered to deliver medicinal materials to the Red River City branch.
Because there are many poisonous animals and insects in the Red River waters, detoxification drugs are very popular here, and the supply is often in short supply.
Zhong Ming cupped his hands towards Chang Yue and Aunt Feng and said, "Saint Qingyi and Aunt Feng have made serious promises. It's an honor for us to be able to walk with you two."
"Hope you all take care, see you soon." Chang Yue also cupped her hands and said to everyone in the caravan.
At this time Zhongming asked again: "Does the Saint have a place to rest in Red River City? If not, why not stay in Cangyue Pavilion temporarily!"
Chang Yue waved her hand, "No, we won't stay in Red River City for long."
Zhong Ming was stunned when he heard this, "I'll see you later."
After bidding farewell to the caravan, Chang Yue and Aunt Feng left Red River City directly and came to a swamp covered in white mist.
This is the edge of the famous Red Mother Waters!
Looking at the richness in front of her, Aunt Feng said: "It seems that there is enough time, almost just in time to catch up with the Saintess Festival."
The so-called Saintess Festival is a ritual activity in which all Saintesses return to the Hidden Immortal Sect after the Saintess Trial, and the sect examines the results of the trial.
Changyue and Aunt Feng returned this time precisely because they received the notice that the sect's trial was over.
Changyue nodded, "Let's go!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and saw the ruby swam out of her sleeve, turning into a giant python dozens of meters long in the blink of an eye.
"Hiss, hiss~~~"
Hongyu twisted her body and swam into the swamp. Changyue and Aunt Feng jumped up and landed smoothly on Hongyu's head.
Changyue sat down cross-legged, patted Hongyu's head and said, "Okay, let's go!"
"Hiss, hiss~~~"
Ruby spit out the snake message and disappeared into the thick fog in the blink of an eye.
The miasma in the Red Mother Waters is indeed powerful, but it has no effect on Changyue and Aunt Feng. It would be ridiculous if the saints and saint aunts of the Yinxian Sect were poisoned to death by the poisonous miasma guarding their own gates.
I saw a black shadow suddenly shot towards Changyue. Changyue pinched it with two fingers, and the black shadow was tightly clamped between her two fingers.
What attacked her was a poisonous insect that is very common in the swamp, called the poison arrow insect. Its appearance is as long and slender as an arrow, and its speed is extremely fast, making it difficult for people to guard against it. Warriors who ventured into the red mother waters died at the hands of this poisonous insect. There are not a few.
Similarly, this kind of poisonous insect is also a kind of medicinal material. If you catch it in large quantities, you can send it to Cangyue Pavilion on the black market in exchange for training resources, because warriors often take risks to catch it.
I saw cold air coming out of Changyue's fingertips, and the poisonous arrow insect was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture. She flicked her finger again, and the ice sculpture turned into ice shavings and dissipated.
Hongyu was very fast, and soon he swam out of the outer edge of the Hongmu waters and arrived at the middle.
The swamp here gradually disappeared, replaced by an endless lake, and above the lake were countless pink jellyfish the size of a palm floating.
The red river jellyfish is extremely poisonous, and warriors below the Condensation Realm will die if it touches it. This kind of jellyfish is the origin of the name of the red river jellyfish.
Hongyu swam into the lake without any scruples, turning a blind eye to the red river jellyfish. If any red river jellyfish dared to look at it, it would open its mouth and suck them all into its mouth like noodles.
Although the red river jellyfish is poisonous, it can only be an appetizer for Hongyu. Ever since it broke through to the Zhoutian realm, Chang Yue has never seen anything more poisonous than it.
Hongyu swam all the way towards the depths of the Red Mother waters, and suddenly a cry came from the mist behind them. The cry was like a baby crying.
Chang Yue and Aunt Feng looked back and saw a giant eagle flying in the wind. There were two long curved horns on the head of the eagle.
Gu carving!
Changyue recognized the identity of the giant eagle at a glance, a ferocious bird and strange beast.
The Gu eagle seemed to be deliberately against Chang Yue and his party. When it flew not far from Chang Yue and the others, it deliberately set off a strong wind, trying to fly Chang Yue and Aunt Feng away from Hong Yu.
But Chang Yue and Aunt Feng were as immovable as a mountain. No matter how hard the Gu Diao flapped its wings, they could not move the slightest bit.
"Hey~~ Isn't this our Saint Qingyi? We haven't seen her for a few years. She is very capable!"
There were two people standing on Gu Diao's back, a woman in blue with a charming face, and a middle-aged woman in plain clothes. It was the woman in blue who was speaking, and her expression was really unflattering.
Needless to say, the visitor must be one of the pair of saints and saints who returned from the Yinxian Sect.
"Liancheng Yun?" Chang Yue asked Aunt Feng in a low voice the woman's identity.
"It's her!" Aunt Feng nodded gently.
Over the past few years, Chang Yue has learned all about Luo Qingyi's interpersonal relationships from Aunt Feng.
Lian Chengyun is a saint in the same class as Luo Qingyi. Like Luo Qingyi, she is at the bottom of the ten saints in the same class. If Luo Qingyi is the last one, then she is the last one. two.
She and Luo Qingyi were very at odds with each other. She used to bully Luo Qingyi when they were in the Hidden Immortal Valley. She didn't expect that she would rush back to the Hidden Immortal Sect on the same day as Chang Yue.
It’s really a narrow road between enemies!
Lian Chengyun kept chattering: "Luo Qingyi, I'm really surprised that you came back alive. I thought you were definitely going to die outside!"
"Noisy!"
As soon as Lian Chengyun finished speaking, Chang Yue said. She waved her hand casually, and in an instant, several thin red-gold threads shot out, accurately penetrating the Gu Diao's wings.
The thin thread is Changyue's own red flame gold thread.
The red flame golden thread is composed of Zhiyang Qi, exuding terrifying high temperature. The moment it penetrates the Gu Eagle's wings, the golden flame rises and the Gu Eagle's feathers are ignited.
"Wow~wow~~wow~~~"
The Gu carving was only at the Condensing Yuan realm, so it could not withstand the long months of Zhiyang zhenqi burning. It let out an unpleasant scream, and not a hair was left after it was burnt.
If Chang Yue hadn't been merciful, the Gu Eagle would have been burned to ashes at this moment.
The featherless Gu Eagle screamed and fell from the sky. It was about to fall into the lake. The Liancheng Yun on its back also fell uncontrollably.
Fortunately, Saint Long Xiao beside her took action in time, which saved her from becoming a drowned rat.
"Luo Qingyi, you are so brave!!!" Lian Chengyun, who was being led flying in the air by Saint Long Xiao, screamed in surprise.
At this time, Aunt Long reminded her: "Holy girl, take the Gu sculpture back quickly, it is going to drown."
It is not easy for the Gu Eagle to drown, but don't forget that there are highly poisonous red river jellyfish swimming in the water. When they see the Gu Eagle falling into the water, they immediately swarm up and want to suck the flesh and blood of the Gu Eagle.
Only then did Liang Chengyun remember that her Gu Eagle was still flapping in the water. She quickly took out a palm-sized bag and put the Gu Eagle inside.
Changyue was a little surprised when she saw the bag. It turned out to be a beast bag!
The beast holding bag is a kind of treasure specially used to store and use strange beasts. Its rarity is even better than the storage items. Unexpectedly, Lian Chengyun actually has one.
It seems that Lian Chengyun is also a person who has a chance.
When Chang Yue was observing Lian Chengyun, Aunt Long was also observing her.
Looking at Saint Qingyi's decisive attack, Aunt Long thought to herself: Saint Qingyi is very different from the past. Sure enough, going out to experience can best train people.
She couldn't help but sigh.
The saintly Qingyi saint who only knew how to be noble in the past has grown up, but my own saint... ugh~~~
Without the Gu Eagle as a mount, Lian Chengyun and Aunt Long could not stay here longer. Although Aunt Long was an innate realm warrior and had the ability to fly in the air, staying here for too long would consume too much energy.
"Sister Feng, Saint Qingyi, Saint Lian and I are taking the first step." Aunt Long said.
Chang Yue and Aunt Feng nodded to Aunt Long at the same time.
"Luo Qingyi, just wait for me!!!"
Liang Chengyun, who was carried away by Aunt Long's collar and flew away in embarrassment, screamed loudly.
Aunt Feng looked at Lian Chengyun's back and shook her head helplessly: "Even the saint hasn't changed at all."
Lian Chengyun and Aunt Long, who were flying far away, were also discussing Chang Yue.
"Saint, you'd better save your words. I see that Saint Qingyi is very different from before, and her cultivation has become deeper and deeper. Judging from this situation, her probability of winning is much greater than yours." Aunt Long She warned that she knew her saint daughter better than anyone else.
"Impossible!!!" Lian Chengyun exclaimed, "She has never beaten me before!"
Aunt Long shook her head: "It's been three days since we've been apart, so we should treat each other with admiration, not to mention that we haven't seen each other for more than six years."
…
To Chang Yue and Aunt Feng, the appearance of Lian Chengyun and Aunt Long was just an interlude in their return to the Yinxian Sect. After the two left, Chang Yue and Aunt Feng continued to set off on Hongyu,
Hongyu didn't know how long she had been swimming. A beautiful valley appeared in front of Changyue and Aunt Feng. Looking from a distance, the valley was filled with large and neat medicinal fields, filled with various medicinal herbs. You can see some disciples working in the fields, carrying water, applying fertilizer, or weeding...
"Holy girl, Hidden Immortal Valley has arrived." Aunt Feng said to Chang Yue.
Chang Yue nodded, still staring at the medicinal fields in the distance without blinking, her heart full of anticipation for her first visit to the Yinxian Sect.
There is a pier at the entrance of Yinxian Valley. On the pier, people are carrying things from the boat to the shore. These are also disciples of the Yinxian Sect.
Different from the disciples of the big sect in Chang Yue’s impression, the disciples of the Yinxian sect are not well-dressed and do not look immortal. Most of them are either wearing rough cloth or neat shorts, and they do not have uniform clothes. The style seems to be that of ordinary villagers.
The Yinxian Sect is actually a special sect with mainly female disciples.
Of course, it's not because the sect looks down on male disciples, it's mainly because the most important technique passed down in the sect, the "Tian Sheng Medical Sutra", is only suitable for women to practice, so there have only been saints in the past dynasties.
The only possibility for the Holy Son to appear in the Yinxian Sect is that there is a special Yin body in the sect, and this disciple is male.
The body of the ultimate yin is very rare, and most of them are women. The possibility of a man having the body of the ultimate yin is almost non-existent, so there is only one recorded saint son born by the Yinxian sect so far.
All yin bodies are suitable for practicing the Heavenly Holy Medical Sutra.
Of course, as an ancient hidden sect, the Hidden Immortal Sect has inherited the superior techniques, in addition to the "Heavenly Saint's Medical Sutra", there is also the "Hidden Saint's Void Refining Method".
"Tian Sheng Medical Sutra" is suitable for doctors and has a stronger healing effect, while practicing "Hidden Saint Refining the Void" can gain stronger combat power.
There is no distinction between the two.
Although Yinxian Valley is a sect of doctors, not all of its disciples are doctors. The doctors major in the "Heavenly Sage Medical Sutra" and the "Heavenly Medical Jue" modified from the "Heavenly Sage Medical Sutra".
The "Heavenly Sage Medical Sutra" selects people, but the improved version of "Heavenly Medical Jue" does not select people, but it is only a medium-level skill.
The non-physician disciples in the sect practice the "Hidden Saint Refining the Void" and its simplified version of the intermediate skill "The Hidden Immortal Technique".
"The Hidden Saint's Void Refining Method" can only be practiced by direct disciples and core disciples, while the "Hidden Immortal Method" is a technique practiced by ordinary disciples.
Both "Heavenly Medicine Technique" and "Hidden Immortal Technique" allow women to practice, but men can only choose "Hidden Immortal Technique". In the long run, there will naturally be more female disciples and fewer male disciples in the sect.
After Hongyu docked at the dock, Changyue and Aunt Feng got off it. The disciples instantly recognized their identities and bowed down to salute.
"We sincerely welcome the Saint and Saint to return to the clan."
Changyue waved her hands and said, "No need to be polite." After that, she took Aunt Feng forward.
Looking at Chang Yue's back, some disciples whispered: "That was Saint Qingyi just now?"
"Well...it seems so."
"Is Saint Qingyi like this? She has never looked at us seriously before, but she actually talked to us just now."
"Look what you said, after all, after so many years of experience outside, I should have learned a little bit about worldly ways, so as not to keep making progress."
"makes sense."
Chang Yue and Aunt Feng came to a tall archway together, and saw the three characters "Yinxian Valley" written on it with flying phoenixes.
This is the official entrance to Hidden Immortal Valley.
But what surprised Chang Yue was that there were several people sitting under the archway who clearly did not look like the Yinxian Sect.
The disciples of the Yinxian Sect were all dressed casually, but these few were covered in silk and brocade clothes.
