After bypassing Wangxuan Peak and flying for only a few miles, the endless sea finally appeared in front of Qu Wuming's eyes.
Stepping on the deserted beach, smelling the salty and wet sea breeze blowing from the direction of the sea, he turned back and looked at Wangxuan Peak in the distance. Qu Wuming then raised his head and looked towards the place where the sea and the sky meet. Apart from the endless sea water, there is nothing else. Even when he couldn't see it, Qu Wuming couldn't help but open his arms and shouted to the sea: "Ah~~~~~ the sea! You are all water!!!" After shouting, he suddenly felt relaxed and energetic. Toru, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly and muttered to himself: "When I saw someone shouting at the sea before, I always felt like I was sick. Unexpectedly, it was really fun after shouting. However, it does look a bit silly." After finishing speaking, , Qu Wuming couldn't help but look around again with a guilty conscience, and then he felt relieved after confirming that there was no one else in sight.
"Originally, I may have set off later than some people, but others may not have a shortcut like the Fox Clan Teleportation Formation." Qu Wuming looked at the endless blue sea and sky, and thought to himself,
"Maybe when the fairy island appears, we can be the first to land on the island and enter the underworld." Thinking of this, a light flashed between Qu Wuming's eyebrows, and the silver eagle puppet that Han Tian gave him flew out again, slightly After circling, it transformed into a giant silver eagle that was more than two feet tall and landed aside.
Qu Wuming thought, a soft sound came from the back of the Silver Eagle puppet, and a wide passage appeared that could allow two people to enter and exit at the same time.
When Qu Wuming jumped into it, the hatch was closed again. From the outside, it was actually tight and there was no gap at all.
Qu Wuming sat in front of the control desk and filled the Silver Eagle Puppet's spirit stone energy store. With a click of the button, the Silver Eagle Puppet immediately spread its wings and soared into the sky!
When the Silver Eagle Puppet flew so high in the sky that even Wangxuan Peak under his feet looked like a small dirt bag, Qu Wuming then hovered the Silver Eagle Puppet high in the sky again, revealing that Looking past the screen of the Silver Eagle Puppet, towards the depths of the sea far away.
At this time, the height of the Silver Eagle Puppet has reached far higher than Wangxuan Peak. Even on Wangxuan Peak, you can see a trace of the Xuanshui waters at the edge. Qu Wuming should naturally be able to see it more clearly at this moment.
However, when Qu Wuming looked towards the end of the horizon, he found that where the sea and the sky met, there was no legendary dark water, but instead a fog that seemed to be quite large.
Because the distance is too far, it can't be seen clearly. Although he didn’t know what the mist was, after using the telescope system on the Silver Eagle Puppet to magnify the farthest scenery several times for observation, Qu Wuming did not find anything related to the legend anywhere else within his sight. middle
"Xuan Shui" has any resemblance.
"The mysterious water must be in that mist..." Qu Wuming guessed. Thinking of this, Qu Wuming pushed the joystick of the Silver Eagle Puppet, driving the Silver Eagle Puppet to draw an arc in the sky and fly towards the direction of the fog.
The Silver Eagle Puppet flew quietly through the sky. The flying height was far beyond the limit that ordinary Void Refining Stage monks could reach. In addition, its flying speed was extremely fast. At this moment, the mist was far away from the coast. Qu Wuming still just used it. In less than half an hour, he had arrived near it.
It was only when Qu Wuming came to the sky above the fog that he realized that the fog he had seen from a distance on the shore was actually extremely vast, seemingly covering hundreds of miles around.
Not only that, as time goes by, the fog seems to be continuously expanding to the surroundings, and its expansion speed seems to be gradually accelerating.
Before, he had never heard of mist above Xuanshui. Qu Wuming actually felt a little hesitant for a moment, wondering whether he should enter the mist to find out.
Just as Qu Wuming was hesitating, a white dot suddenly lit up on a screen of the Silver Eagle Puppet, flashing and approaching rapidly in his direction.
Qu Wuming pressed a few buttons on the console, and another small screen immediately displayed the scene from the direction of the little white dot.
What was flying towards this side at great speed was actually a long-bearded old man who was walking in the air with a fairy sword on his feet. At this time, the long-bearded old man seemed to gradually see the Silver Eagle Puppet suspended near the fog. His eyes narrowed slightly and he gradually slowed down his escape speed, stopping at a place about dozens of feet away from the Silver Eagle Puppet.
I saw him slightly arching his hands in the direction of the Silver Eagle puppet, and using the art of amplification to say to the opposite side: "I, Jian Zong Luo Xingchen, I wonder which fellow Taoist is in front of me?" Jian Zong Luo Xingchen, the Supreme Elder of Jian Zong One of them is one of the seniors in the Void Refining Stage who has been famous in the Eastern Continent for a long time.
It is said that this man has an upright character and hates evil. He was a policeman before he became a Taoist. Later, he was imprisoned and almost beheaded for interrogation because he killed his corrupt and bribery boss.
As a result, he was found out by a Taoist monk from Jian Zong who was traveling abroad, and he rescued him and brought him back to Jian Zong. Although he started cultivating the Tao very late, his understanding of Jian Zong's mental methods was surprisingly high. In just a few years, he caught up with many senior brothers and sisters who had practiced in Jian Zong for decades. Now he has become the supreme master of Jian Zong. One of the elders and one of the top ten sword cultivators of the Sword Sect.
Qu Wuming had not directly interacted with Luo Xingchen before, but he was familiar with his deeds. Hearing this, he hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to go out to meet her.
Although they are all going to the underworld now, and there will still be a competitive relationship in the future, after all, I admire Luo Xingchen's past deeds, especially his stories of often doing chivalry and righteousness. I have admired him for a long time. If I avoid it, Qu Wuming asked himself how hard it was to overcome this hurdle in his heart.
Luo Xingchen saw a flash of light on the back of the silver eagle puppet opposite, and a tall man wearing a Wuwu hiding robe flew out.
However, the hood of the Wuwu Hiding Robe was not put on, and the man's face was not covered in any way.
Although the distance was far away at this moment, it was still easy for a person with Luo Xingchen's cultivation level to see Qu Wuming's face clearly.
I saw the man on the Silver Eagle puppet with a square face, a beard, regular facial features, and a rugged yet handsome face.
Under the Wuwu Hidden Body Robe, you can faintly see the full and bulging muscles on the man's arms and shoulders, which seem to contain infinite power.
At this time, the man's voice also reached Luo Xingchen's ears clearly.
"I'm Sanxiu Qu Wuming, I've met Senior Luo!"
"Qu Wuming?" When Luo Xingchen heard this, he thought about it briefly and realized that he had actually heard of this name. He smiled slightly and asked, "Do you recognize Master Kong Ji from Xuanfa Temple?" Qu Wuming hurriedly clasped his fists again after hearing this. "Although Master Kongji and I don't have the name of master and disciple, they are actually master and disciple."
"Haha, that's it." Luo Xingchen heard this, smiled and twirled his long beard and said,
"Have you ever heard that old monk mention me?"
"Senior Luo is a good friend of Master Kongji. Of course, I have heard of him, but it's a pity that I didn't get to meet him during the years when I became a monk in Xuanfa Temple and couldn't listen to my senior's teachings in person." Qu Wuming said with a respectful expression.
Luo Xingchen was obviously very satisfied with Qu Wuming's answer. He smiled slightly and nodded, "I also heard Kong Ji tell you about you later. The old monk seemed to appreciate you very much. He actually even used his Crescent Moon Demon-Suppressing Shovel and Six I gave you the Pinqingjing Lotus Platform! Haha, since we meet today, I can’t help but not say anything.” As he said that, a light flashed in the center of Luo Xingchen’s eyebrows, and something flew out and flew straight towards Qu Wuming.
"I heard that the exercises you practice are very complicated, and even have magic skills? Haha, this is a heart-washing stone. When you enter the Void Refining Stage and have the Zifu space, you will know about this heart-washing stone. Wonderful use." Luo Xingchen said with a smile.
Qu Wuming naturally knew that the heart-washing stone was a rare treasure used by people in the Void Refining Stage to protect their Taoist hearts and keep the spiritual platform clear. If a heart-washing stone could be refined, it would not only be equivalent to adding an extra layer of protection outside the Zifu space. The barrier of spiritual consciousness is also very useful in resisting the invasion of inner demons and calming down for enlightenment. It is really a treasure that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
Qu Wuming also didn't expect that Luo Xingchen would be so generous as soon as they met. He was about to politely refuse, but he heard Luo Xingchen continue to say: "Take it! Kong Ji and I are sworn friends, so you don't have to be polite to me. Besides, , I still have this thing, don’t worry about it.”
"Then thank you, Senior Luo!" Hearing this, Qu Wuming hurriedly took the heart-washing stone that had flown to his side and bowed again.
Then, he raised his hand and put the silver eagle puppet into the storage ring, and flew towards Luo Xingchen.
Even after receiving the greeting gifts, if you still stand on the Silver Eagle Puppet and look like you are far away from others, I am afraid that you will be scolded when you see Master Kongji again in the future.
When Qu Wuming came closer, Luo Xingchen looked at Qu Wuming curiously and said with a little uncertainty: "I heard Kong Ji say that your cultivation should still be at the stage of becoming a god. Why, you are going to the underworld this time." Want to have a chance?"
"Exactly." Qu Wuming nodded and replied.
"Haha, you are indeed a formidable person!" Luo Xingchen said with a smile.
"Just now I saw you staying above the fog, seeming to be ready to go in and take a look?"
"Yes, I just heard that Xuanshui is magical, but I don't know what this mist is. If senior hadn't called me, I would have planned to go in and find out." Qu Wuming answered truthfully.
"This mist is a strange phenomenon that only appeared before the fairy mountain appeared in the mysterious water." Luo Xingchen explained,
"As the fog spreads, the area of Xuanshui will continue to expand. When the fog stops expanding, the fairy mountain will emerge somewhere in Xuanshui. At that time, it will be time to step into the Xuanshui. When entering the Immortal Mountain and looking for Jiuquan Mountain. If you enter the mist area at this time, it is extremely dangerous, so you must not be reckless."
"Oh? I wonder what senior said?" Qu Wuming was very curious and asked hurriedly.
"Since you asked this, it seems that the homework you have done on the Xuanshui and Netherworld realms is still not enough, haha." Luo Xingchen looked at Qu Wuming and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Qu Wuming's expression was also astonishing. Indeed, both the Xuanshui and the Underworld were too far away for Qu Wuming. Even if he heard about it occasionally, it was just an anecdote. He didn't have the strength to join in the fun, so naturally he wouldn't go too far. Take heart.
If he hadn't obtained Lu Ling's boundary-breaking talisman, Qu Wuming might not have cared about the news about the underworld this time.
Luo Xingchen pointed to the endless rolling fog dozens of feet away and asked, "According to your observation, have you found any difference between these fogs and ordinary fogs?" Qu Wuming answered truthfully about his previous feelings: " These fogs are extremely heavy in yin and are not like ordinary fogs. Moreover, when the power of spiritual consciousness penetrates into them, they often lose their way or are suddenly cut off for no reason, as if they have encountered interference from the power of space."
"Well, you're right." Luo Xingchen nodded.
"In this mist, space cracks suddenly appear from time to time. If you enter it rashly, you are likely to be sucked directly into it. Every time before the Xuanshui Immortal Mountain appears, there are always some uninformed people who think that the Immortal Mountain is hidden in the mist. In order to They were able to find Jiuquan Mountain and enter the underworld first, and got in before the fog cleared. Only a few of these people were extremely lucky to survive, and the rest were either crushed into pieces by the cracks in the space. He fell into a space crack and was swept into some other dimension, and never appeared in the Shifang Realm again."
"This happened?! Then this fog... will it appear again before the Immortal Mountain leaves Xuanshui?" Qu Wuming couldn't help but secretly rejoiced after hearing this. If Luo Xingchen hadn't appeared in time, he might have really gotten into it. Gone in the mist.
Luo Xingchen nodded and said: "That's natural..."
