When Xiaoxiao stood on the cliff overlooking the zoo, her already big eyes turned into a pair of copper bells.
"Well, what a beautiful forest!"
Xiao Xiao never imagined that the backside of Blue Rock Peak would be such a wonderful sight.
Xiao Li smiled and said: "When big brother came a few days ago, he had the same expression as senior sister. Come on, the entrance to the second floor of the sword tomb is in the beast garden. I will take you down."
"It's so beautiful here." Xiao Xiao exclaimed, her eyes catching a glimpse of Yuan Qing's half-dead face. My interest immediately dropped by half. She simply ignored him completely and followed Xiao Li down the path.
After entering the forest, Xiao Xiaogeng felt that there were new things everywhere. There are also forests under the snow-capped mountains of the Maya Mountains. But compared with here, the forest at the foot of the mountain is too inconspicuous.
The ancient trees here are towering, the forest is green, the branches are shrouded, and the sun is blocked by the shade. Every blade of grass is green, and every flower seems to be alive, competing for the breath of spiritual energy.
Xiao Xiao stopped in front of an unknown large flower.
Xiao Li smiled and said: "Sister, if you don't leave, it will eat you."
As soon as Xiao Li finished speaking, the big flower leaned towards Xiao Xiao as if it had grown legs.
"Ah!" Xiao Xiao backed away in horror. Just hearing the sound of drawing a sword out of its sheath, the big flower broke into two pieces.
Yuan Qing sheathed his sword and said coldly: "This is the man-eating morning glory. It will spit out a stream of liquid at you soon."
Xiao Li said: "Senior Brother Yuanqing is right. This man-eating morning glory cannot hurt the monks. But if it is a mortal, it will be enchanted by the liquid it sprays. It will most likely become its nourishment in the end."
Xiao Xiao frowned slightly, she didn't know why that piece of ice wanted to show kindness to her. She was thinking wildly when she heard Yuanqing say: "That liquid is very smelly. If it sprays on you, you must wash it off. It will waste time."
"you!"
Xiao Li immediately came to the rescue: "The liquid is really smelly. I was once a victim. It is the wisest choice not to touch the flowers and plants in the animal garden."
Xiao Xiao cast a sidelong glance at Qian Qing and went after Xiao Li.
Because Xiao Li leads the way. All the spirit beasts along the way would stay away from them when they saw them, but the grades of those spirit beasts were shocking. In just one hour, they encountered four or five spirit beasts whose cultivation had reached the soul level. There was a snow monster among them, and Xiao Xiao recognized it. It was the one she had subdued on the snow mountain level to save Pei Feng, and it had now broken through to the soul realm.
"Could it be that all the powerful spiritual beasts in the snow-capped mountains were brought here?"
"Yes, most of the spirit beasts in the beast garden come from the snow mountain layer, and some are brought back from outside by disciples of past generations."
Yuanqing was completely uninterested in the content of their chat. He just wanted to keep moving forward. We walked for about an hour. They finally stopped in front of a huge tree.
They could see this giant tree when they looked at it from the rock wall before. Only when I really stood under the tree did I feel its magnificence.
The giant tree is bigger than a hill. Not to mention how tall it is, even its diameter can't be seen at a glance. Each leaf is like a futon.
The huge ancient Qinggu snake poked its head down from the branch and spat out snake letters at the three of them. Xiao Xiao's scalp felt numb.
"Xiao Qing, go back quickly."
When the big snake heard Xiao Li's harsh tone, he didn't dare to be presumptuous. He shrank back and hid behind the lush leaves.
Xiao Xiao was stunned and asked: "Is this the entrance to the second floor of the Sword Tomb?"
"Yes. There is a tree hole over there. Go straight down from the tree hole and you can enter the Sword Tomb."
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. "How many disciples of our Wuji Sect have entered the second floor?"
Xiao Li smiled and asked, "How many Tianlinggen disciples can our Wuji Sect have?"
Xiao Xiao didn't hide her pride at all. He snorted softly, "Xia Zhilan, aren't you a genius? Why are you not qualified to come to the second floor?"
Now that they were close, the three of them slowed down. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but look up. She wanted to know what would be on top of this big tree? She secretly made up her mind to climb this big tree after coming out of the Sword Tomb.
Qianqing still followed the two of them, although his face still had no expression. But if you observe him carefully, it is not difficult to find that his position is getting closer and closer to Xiao Xiao. In other words, the pace of his feet quickened unknowingly.
After a stick of incense. They heard a heavy, eerie sound. In fact, everyone is familiar with this sound, it is just snoring. But the strange thing was that the snoring was so exaggerated, like thunder in the clear sky, that it made people's ears buzz.
Xiao Xiao got goosebumps all over her body. She felt that people who could make such snoring sounds would most likely eat children, or two at a time.
Sure enough, they immediately saw the owner of the voice, which was an extremely huge body. He was lying deeply asleep between the two protruding roots of the big tree. This person was a stranger to both Xiao Xiao and Yuan Qing. He was the one who took Xiao Li to Broken String Peak more than ten days ago. He is Xiao Li's second senior brother, Lan Yanfeng Hu Da.
Xiao Li scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. He was wondering whether to wake up his second senior brother. After all, the second senior brother's duty is to guard the entrance to the second floor of the Sword Tomb. Now that someone has brought it, it would be inappropriate if he is not notified. But if he wakes up... Xiao Li can't forget the scene a few days ago.
Three snow wolves preyed on the spirit deer. The spirit deer had nowhere to escape and broke into the place, disturbing the second senior brother's sleep. Then Xiao Li had barbecue that day. That is the meat of high-level spiritual beasts, a rare delicacy.
Xiao Li was in a dilemma when he looked up and saw that the big tree hole not far away was open. There wasn't even a single leaf outside the tree hole for shelter. He immediately understood what the second senior brother meant.
Xiao Li said nothing to Xiao Xiao and Yuan Qing, and then pointed to the tree hole. He signaled that the two of them could go in.
"Ah?" Xiao Xiao frowned. She thought to herself that such an important event as entering the Sword Tomb should have a ceremony or something. If she sneaks in secretly, her ability to talk will be greatly reduced when she returns.
Xiao Li urged them to leave quickly. He was worried that these two people had woken up the second senior brother and he would be angered too.
Xiao Xiao turned around and saw that one of Qianqing's feet had already stepped into the tree hole. I don't want to think about those miscellaneous things anymore. She hurriedly followed. At the same time, she turned back and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Li, aren't you going in?"
Xiao Li shook his head. Everything on the second floor was very familiar to him. Feng Lan once told him that there was no creation of his in the Sword Tomb.
After Xiao Xiao also entered the tree hole, Xiao Li shook his head slightly, and he had no choice but to take on the important task of guarding the second senior brother outside the tree hole. I sighed in my heart that my second senior brother was too unreliable. If the master knew about this, he would definitely be punished.
In fact, Hu Da's slackness is not without reason. It has guarded the entrance to the second floor for who knows how many years. Even if the tree hole is open, no fly will ever dare to fly in.
If a monk wants to sneak into this place, he needs to quietly climb Mount Maya, quietly enter the Wuji Gate, quietly bypass the Medicine Valley, and quietly climb the Blue Rock Peak. How many pairs of monks' eyes must he avoid along the way? After reaching Blue Rock Peak, he would sneak into the Animal Park quietly. It is even more difficult to avoid the detection of all the spirit beasts in the beast garden.
And when he came to the entrance of the cave, he would face an ancient phantom beast in the shape-shifting state. Even if Hu Da fell asleep, there was still the bamboo pole of Feng Lan's top disciple in the sword tomb. Who can escape his eyes?
Of course, in the world of cultivation, there are monks who can do all this. But, what would a monk who could reach that level do on the second floor of the Sword Tomb of Wuji Sect? Come to kowtow to the dead Taoist priests inside and ask for good fortune?
Therefore, Hu Da, the gatekeeper, is in name only. It's just that Xiao Li can't see through this. He didn't dare to relax at the entrance of the tree hole.
The passage is not dark. The steps at your feet are also paved with luminous blue rocks. Moreover, there are glowing spiritual stones every ten meters on both sides of the passage. Even mortals can see their surroundings clearly through the soft light when they come in. Not to mention a monk.
The passage is very spacious, and the space inside is much larger than the tree hole at the entrance. Xiao Xiao calculated based on the number of steps up and down. In fact, she was walking almost straight ahead. Her current location may be more than ten meters below the ground at the entrance.
"Could it be said that Blue Rock Peak is empty?" Xiao Xiao said to himself.
The footsteps ahead are getting farther and farther. Xiao Xiao quickly followed. She gritted her teeth with hatred. I really don’t understand how there can be such a weirdo in the world. There was no concept of pity and pity in his mind. Instead, he regards girls as his burden and encumbrance.
She deeply regretted that she had been blind before. How could I have a crush on such a person? She decided that after leaving the Sword Tomb, she would never see this person again. But right now, she still doesn't dare to stay too far away from Yuanqing. Because she knew where she was going. This is a cemetery that lasts for thousands of years. As long as she thought about the countless dead people buried inside, she would feel that everything around her was eerie.
The footsteps in front suddenly disappeared. Xiao Xiao quickened his pace. Soon she saw Yuan Qing standing at the end of the passage holding a sword. They came in.
The interior of Blue Rock Peak is indeed empty. The empty space in front of her was as big as the Mayan Palace. Many huge tombstones several feet high were neatly arranged from behind. Each tombstone is very far apart. There should be dozens of large tombstones in total. After all, the leaders and cultivation giants of the Wuji Sect throughout the ages are buried here. There can't be too many.
The tombstone glowed with golden light. It has densely written small characters written on it. There are countless runes. There is a stone door engraved with runes below the tombstone. That should be the tomb door.
When Xiao Xiao really stood here, the faint fear in her heart disappeared instantly. Instead there was shock. She couldn't help but want to kneel down and worship. Every word on those tombstones seemed to contain great laws. Every symbol is worth countless years for a low-level monk like her to comprehend.
Xiao Xiaoyi turned his head and saw that Yuan Qing beside him had already started to kowtow. He had a pious look on his face, which was completely different from his usual face.
Xiao Xiao also immediately knelt down and bowed. Now is not the time to be angry with Qianqing. She would never dare to lose her temper in front of the tombs of these giants. After three prostrations and nine bows, Xiao Xiao saw a thin and long shadow spread on the ground. She followed the shadow with her eyes, then turned upward at a ninety-degree right angle, and then she looked at the "bamboo pole" she had seen in the Mayan Palace.
Xiao Xiaoman lowered his head. The look of this man could definitely scare a child to tears. What's more, he has a terrifying cultivation level. Xiao Xiao was also afraid of this "bamboo pole" from the bottom of her heart.
Yuanqing naturally turned his body towards the bamboo pole and saluted.
The bamboo pole spoke concisely and concisely. "Choose a tombstone each to comprehend. Once you understand, the tomb door will open."
Xiao Xiao regretted her rudeness just now. I was thinking about giving this bamboo pole a monk's gift. But when he looked up again, the bamboo pole disappeared like a ghost. The only living person in the entire cemetery was the scariest.
Xiao Xiao was very unconvinced. She actually lost to the most rude person in terms of etiquette today. She was worried that this would affect her success here. But she didn't dare to speak willfully anymore, she just pursed her lips and stared at Qianqing fiercely.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Qing took the initiative to speak to her. There was a little tenderness in that tone.
"gentle?"
Yuanqing said: "Xiao Xiao, go and understand that tombstone."
Xiao Xiao looked with resentful eyes. The tombstone he was pointing to was the far left one in the first row.
Xiao Xiao turned around, her eyes full of doubts. "Why?"
Qianqing said: "Do you know whose tombstones these three in the first row belong to?"
"I don't know, do you know?"
"From left to right. They are, Grandmaster Qingyunzi, former head Tianjizi, and Grandmaster Yulingzi. You will benefit the most from studying the tombstone of Grandmaster Qingyunzi."
"Why?" Xiao Xiao suddenly felt like there were ten thousand question marks in his mind.
Yuan Qing just smiled lightly and said, "Just believe me."
