It is nearing the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and the sun rises a little later than usual. After climbing for a long time, it has only just passed the height of the mountainside. It seems that because of this, today's sunshine is a little less vicious.
The deep mountains and old forests on both sides of Longyuan Gorge can't smell the noisy chirping of cicadas and birds in the past summer, but there is a lively scene in the dense forest that has been rare in the past ten years.
The sunshine brought a little warmth to Shui Rujing and Xie Yongchang who had not slept all night. At least while they were hungry in their bellies, the external environment did not make things worse, but instead made them more comfortable.
Lively scenes always involve people, and eight people including Shui Rujing and Xie Yongchang unsurprisingly became the initiators of this lively scene.
Shui Rujing and his party of five were led by Jiang Yichen, who was carrying Murong Jing on his back, while Shui Rujing was at the back behind the four people in front.
Liu Menghen, who was in the middle, was much more relaxed than You Ming. He also shouldered the responsibility of observing all directions and coordinating the rhythm of the forward and backward march, ensuring that the group could look after each other and avoid being defeated one by one. .
From time to time, Netherworld leaves small tadpole-like marks in secret places. If you look closely, you can see that the symbols are the same shape as the ghost on his hand.
Although the two pairs of eyes of You Ming and Liu Menghen helped to look after him, Jiang Yichen was leading the way after all. Jiang Yichen did not dare to be careless at all and maintained a high level of alertness. Therefore, Liu's words could be heard in his ears from behind. Menghen and Shui Rujing's heavy breathing sounds.
Since leaving the underworld, they have not stopped to rest for a while, so it is no wonder that their pace is getting heavier and heavier now.
Of course, Jiang Yichen also knew very well that his difficulties would not escape the ears of the three people behind him.
Jiang Yichen did not feel any embarrassment because of this. On the contrary, he was very lucky that he had perfected two internal skills before he had the endurance he had now. Otherwise, if three years ago, Shuangxue Zhenqi had reached the middle level, even though he could gain a lot of The inner energy is deposited on the ground, but without a complete Dantian, it is ultimately impossible to complete a complete round-trip to the sky in the body to store more energy. This will definitely make it impossible to carry one person for a long-distance attack like today.
Now that the Frost and Snow True Qi has been cultivated to the upper level, it has completely condensed into a flawless Dantian structure. Not only can it store more inner energy, but it can also use the "Dantian" to confuse the real with the fake. Cultivating into the second door can further expand. A wood-based technique that clears the meridians and generates inner breath.
"Strength is indeed the foundation for standing in the world. Two inferior internal skills are not enough after all." Jiang Yichen sighed in his heart again.
The three of Xie Yongchang and the five of them are still more than a mile away from each other, but the distance between them is still shrinking. They have already discovered the unique mark of Netherworld, and have used it to pursue it all the way.
They themselves didn't know how far apart the two groups of people were, but at this time they were traveling in roughly the same direction, heading upwards and towards danger.
In poor condition, they all gave up the idea of forcibly outnumbering the enemy. After all, the enemy's fresh force was unknown. If they continued to press forward as hard as forcing their way into the underworld, I am afraid that their flesh and blood bodies would eventually be overwhelmed. Buried here due to heavy burden.
Going up the dangerous road would undoubtedly slow down their progress, but they had no choice but to do so.
The road up the mountain became steeper, so not only did they have to move forward slowly, but the enemy also had to slow down.
The more dangerous the road, the more difficult it is for many people to pass it. The advantage of having such a large number of people gradually becomes small and disappears.
Only in this way can we create the conditions where one man can stand in front of ten thousand men. Shui Rujing and Xie Yongchang serve as the last barriers to protect the two groups of people along the way.
Shui Rujing relied on her tenacity in fighting alone to defeat five Yinshamen hall masters who were chasing after her. Xie Yongchang, who was injured in one hand, also killed three. It is conceivable that if he is on the smooth road, If those hall masters swarmed up, not to mention whether Shui Rujing and Xie Yongchang could take one or two of them, and whether they could escape from trouble would be a question.
Therefore, Shui Rujing couldn't help but admire Jiang Yichen's choice even more.
However, the method of using swords to take risks and marching dangerously can only be used for this moment. After all, the two sides of Longyuan Gorge are not lofty peaks. Mountain heights will eventually have limits, and dangerous roads will eventually end. When the journey reaches the end, It seems that there is nowhere to go.
Five miles away from them, at the gate of Yinsha Underworld, there was a silver-haired middle-aged man standing with his hands behind his back.
If it weren't for the two rows of eight men in silver standing two feet away, with swords and swords, and their chests were rising and falling, and their breath was still unsteady, anyone would think that this man was walking slowly to enjoy the mountains and rivers. There is no appearance of traveling all the way and being dusty.
The middle-aged man has long hair that reaches his waist, and his white hair is as white as snow, like the stars in the sky, long, beautiful, and elegant.
This man not only has silver-white hair, but also has two sword eyebrows hanging on him like two miniature silver-white long swords. Even though he does not show any emotion at this time, he has an innate sense of not being angry and self-powerful.
It seems that because of his thinness and tallness, coupled with the blue and white robe he wears, he makes people feel that he is somewhat of a fairy from heaven.
This person is none other than Xiao Yincai, the master of the Yinsha Sect.
The five people standing beside him were dressed in dark green trousers, embroidered with four-clawed flying fish patterns, and carried swords. Compared with the submissive appearance of the two rows of people, they did look a bit majestic.
After Xiao Yincai's eyes moved away from the underworld, he came to the weapons worn on the waists of the five people. Not only were they of different shapes and colors, but they were all famous in the world.
Before Xiao Yin could speak, one of the five people spoke first: "It seems that Clan Master Xiao doesn't have many treasures hidden in the underworld, haha."
This person was born with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and sharp edges, but his voice was rather sinister and strange. When compared with Xiao Yincai, one is really a croaking toad, while the other is a dignified and elegant swan. The contrast is strong.
Xiao Yincai said calmly: "How can we see Yin Qianhu?"
The man named Yin Qianhu said: "Anyone who has some good treasures and is ruined by such bloodshed will always frown and sigh. But along the way, plus standing at the door for a while, I watched Xiao The sect master is calm and calm, his expression remains unchanged, I guess there is either no treasure inside, or he was moved first, right?"
Xiao Yincai chuckled and shook his head, saying: "Yin Qianhu's words are wrong. This is a good place that Xiao spent a lot of effort to find and even put a lot of effort into building. If there are no treasures here, Then why should Xiao be so extravagant?"
Yin Qianhu frowned and said, "Then Master Xiao..."
Xiao Yincai naturally knew what Yin Qianhu was planning, so he cut off his words first: "The necessary sacrifices are always worth it. What's more, the other party only came with a few people to force their way in. They can kill all my people and theirs." They could be rescued, but they were unable to take away the treasures in the underworld together. After the incident was completed, Yin Qianhu and several brothers could each choose the one they liked, and it was assumed that Xiao had thanked the five people for their help. .”
After receiving Xiao Yincai's affirmative reply, the five Yin Qianhu people were naturally overjoyed and expressed their thanks and promises.
The world seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, and the five of them naturally covet the rare and exotic objects hidden by Xiao Yincai in the Yinsha underworld, so they will be the first to intervene in the operation of the twelve Tiansha sects.
Xiao Yincai was naturally not ashamed of the actions of the five people, but as he was able to handle this situation with ease, he would never show any discomfort on the surface.
Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky like a white dove and landed lightly beside Xiao Yincai. Without having to see who it was, Xiao Yincai asked, "Can you find out clearly?"
The visitor replied: "I understand most of it."
Xiao Yincai's brows finally trembled, as if he heard uncertain information from this person, just like seeing the sun rising from the west, feeling strange and puzzled.
He repeated: "Most of it?"
The visitor said: "There were seven people who forced their way into the underworld. Leng Yue Kuang Dao and Li Huo Blade were here. The descendants of Ghost Jian Chou were also here. The other three people were Liu Menghen, the Zheyue Dao, and Xuan He, a disciple of Wudang Xuan generation. The first of the Seven New Swords of Emei is as clear as a mirror, and the last one... has never been seen or heard of."
It was strange, but Xiao Yin would not get too entangled in unimportant links. He knew very well that as long as all these people were stopped, their identities could be traced. He asked: "In which direction are they going?"
The visitor said: "With the efforts of Rakshasa and Yaksha, they were forced to split into two groups. However, the distance is now much closer, and they are heading towards the mountains and dangerous roads."
Xiao Yincai smiled and said: "This is a temporary solution, but the underworld has been established for so long, how can they still understand the situation here as well as us?"
The visitor said: "Of course it's just a fight between trapped beasts."
