Xue Tong faintly heard the sound of the waves, which suddenly made his heart freeze.
There is no sea in the vast continent, it is purely inland. This circuit is not the other circuit, and we have reached an unknown area.
The island is covered with mountains, ancient trees and overgrown grass.
Xue Tong sat on the stone and practiced Qigong to heal his injuries.
The explosion damaged his organs, his head was dizzy, and he was bleeding from his nose and mouth.
Xue Tong swallowed the healing elixir and activated the real demon power...
After a few days, nothing serious happened, but the weather felt sultry and hot, so I headed north to explore.
It took several days to figure out the conditions of the sea in a radius of more than 10,000 miles.
The sea area is extremely desolate, and there are many shadows of beasts on the large and small islands. They are all innate and master-level monsters, and the same is true for sea eagles and sea eagles.
"It seems to be a very remote place, so no one will disturb it." Xue Tong chose an island and built a simple underground palace.
"More than half of the power of the loop space has been destroyed by Hongjing. Whether it can persist until the demonic shadow appears is questionable. What's more, the internal turbulence is complicated and it is difficult to predict where it will be transmitted." Xue Tong is no longer as worried as Yunzhou.
"In the first year of nothing, the threat of the Demonic Immortal is far away in the horizon. What a coincidence that we met him in this desolate sea area and ended it with a whip!" Xue Tong thought to himself.
Xue Tong opened a furnace to refine elixirs. He took nine pills for six years and saved eighteen tonic elixirs.
During this period, the four spirit pets roamed freely on the island. This situation has not happened for many years.
That day, the sky was thundering and the rain was pouring. Xue Tong felt something in his heart and left the island on an eagle.
…
There are finally people on the island, and the architectural styles are very different.
Xue Tong didn't even have a gregarious piece of clothing.
Xue Tong, a monk on the island with an average level of martial arts, sneaked into the market at night, ransacked tailor shops and sundry shops, and took away large and small bags of clothing and several atlases.
"Qianfeng Domain"
Xue Tong read the picture and knew where he was in the spiritual realm.
Only a small corner of the map is shown, leaving a large blank space with no city or mountain marked.
Xue Tong landed across the vast sea.
There are majestic mountains, great rivers, and boundless ridges. You can fly tens of thousands of miles directly on an eagle before you can see any human beings.
Xue Tong went all the way north until the northernmost Xuanmen boundary marked on the map.
On the 3,000-foot peak, the buildings are as small as beans. At the foot of the mountain a hundred miles away, the houses are scattered and gathered together to form a town.
Outside Xue Tong Town, the Spiritual Object Shop sold several second- and third-grade magical artifacts from the "Four Cultivators of Mengshan". After buying the map, he asked the shopkeeper: "Has the shopkeeper heard of any mysterious places or transmissions?" kind?"
As he spoke, he put the spirit stone bag on the table. @·No mistake first~~
The shopkeeper scratched his cheek and said, "I have little knowledge and live in a corner. I really haven't heard of it."
"Then where is the best place to ask?" Xue Tong asked again.
"Try the Xuanshan Taoist Temple? But the old Xuanshan Taoist temple is difficult to deal with, senior, be careful." said the shopkeeper.
"How is your Taoist cultivation?"
“Basically on par with its predecessors”
The shopkeeper said he was right, but in fact it was Xue Tongduo's fault that he couldn't express in person.
Xue Tong grabbed a handful of spiritual stones and said, "Well, take it and drink it!"
…
Xuanshan Taoist Temple.
The Taoist temple is surprisingly small, and the hanging mountain is also unremarkable.
The Taoist temple is hidden among trees, simple and deep, with green tiles and yellow walls covered with thick gray.
An indescribable eerie feeling.
Xue Tong climbed up the stairs, the air from his fingertips tapping the door knocker.
"Pfft~"
High above the ancient trees in the Taoist temple, thick smoke suddenly erupted.
Two big snakes, black and white, one on the left and one on the right, hang in mid-air.
The snake's body is thicker than a bucket, with a triangular head, and its green eyes stare fiercely.
Xue Tong sneered, raised his foot lightly, and kicked open the door.
"Hoo~"
The black and white shadows rushed towards him, transformed into the talisman of the Martial Saint's twin snakes. No matter how strong Xue Tong's aura was, the Taoist temple would never be afraid and would not attack if it was attacked.
Xue Tonggang's demonic protective layer bulged and flicked away the two snakes.
Claw shadows streaked across the air.
Huimeng's claws grasped the necks of the two snakes and squeezed them hard.
The four eyes of the big black and white snake instantly dimmed, the snake's neck was crushed, and the snake's skull rolled down.
"Is this how Xuanshan Taoist Temple treats guests?" Xue Tong shouted.
There was a panic in the Taoist temple, and the Xuanyi Taoist priests dispersed.
After a moment, the figure shook, and the old man with a yellow face and black clothes appeared.
.
Xuanshan Old Taoist Martial Saint, in the late stage, frowned and looked at Xue Tong, and said in a dark voice: "My fellow Taoist does not report his family name, and ignores my black and white protector, kicks the door to cause trouble, is it still reasonable?"
When Xue Tong first arrived in the new territory, he needed to take advantage of the evil monks and was not too cruel. He smiled and said: "Xue came from afar, but the Taoist priest threatened him with two snakes. This is not the way to treat guests."...
"What do you do, Taoist Master?" Old Taoist Xuanshan asked in a gentle tone, concerned about his strength.
"Just say it here?" Xue Tong asked.
"Oh, please come in!" Xuanshan Old Road gave way.
Xue Tong entered the Taoist temple in a grand manner.
Living room.
"Xue has been practicing hard for more than two hundred years. From the beginning to the end, he wanted to travel and seek opportunities. My fellow Taoist is well-informed. He specially visited the gate of Baoguan Mountain. He just had to use force. I hope you don't mind." Xue Tong handed over. said.
"oh"
Old Taoist Xuanshan rolled his eyes, half convinced.
"Whenever you gain something, never forget the benefits of fellow Taoists." Xue Tong said again.
"Looking for an opportunity...there is something right in front of me, I don't know my friend..."
"Speaking"
"Liu Qianli Sect, Zong Zhenren, fellow Taoist disciples are not inferior to him in strength, so we try to seize his position. Is it an opportunity to become the sect leader?"
"Haha."
The treasure of suppressing the sect, the human-ghost cauldron, can attract ghosts and suppress souls, can this be regarded as a chance?" Old Taoist Xuanshan asked again.
Xue Tong's heart moved, remembering the snake god sacrifices in the past. This kind of magic to attract ghosts and invite gods is definitely not unique to the Qiang Du people.
"What's the specific use?" Xue Tong asked.
"Assist in practicing exercises and resist foreign enemies."
"Is there no one else who covets the tripod?"
"After several cultivators fled, the monks near and far have given up their thoughts. I haven't heard of any stronger true monks coming. If my fellow Taoists get the treasured cauldron, remember to share some of the benefits."
After the old Taoist Xuanshan finished speaking, he raised his tea cup and drank it all.
"Xue said goodbye!"
…
Xue Tong finally got some information and figured out a new goal.
"How can Old Taoist Xuanshan be so kind? He just estimates that he can't defeat me, so he uses the treasures he can't get to send him away."
After asking around the mountain, the legend of Baoding was similar to what the old Taoist said, but the reputation of Xuanshan Taoist Temple was unanimously bad. When he returned to Xuanshan and wanted to clarify it again, he saw only the subjective eaves, erected The banner is high and the word "closed" is written on it.
"Oh, close your eyes. @*~~" Xue Tong stopped and looked in front of him.
…
"I am a stranger to you, and what I am thinking about is the treasure that can suppress the clan." Xue Tong felt abrupt. He didn't really want to seize the cauldron, just because it attracts ghosts and calms the souls, which is extremely beneficial to the soul beasts. I wonder if I can spend money to use the cauldron?
Xue Tong rode into the town on an eagle, followed closely by the bone puppet, which had already attracted attention.
In full view of everyone, he entered the spiritual object shop, chatted for a few words, and then got down to business.
"I have refined a ghost object and want to borrow your sect's precious cauldron for use. I am willing to pay a high price." Xue Tong said.
The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hands: "Young man is just the shopkeeper, how can he be qualified to talk about big things?"
"Go and report quickly."
"Young man has no place to report. Even if he goes to the peak, he has no right to make decisions. If he makes a random report, he will be punished. Senior, please let me go." The shopkeeper begged.
"You'll have to try it before talking. Speedy sound transmission will reach the peak!" Xue Tong warned sternly.
"Senior, have mercy on me, senior, have mercy on me..." the shopkeeper bowed repeatedly.
Xue Tong recited a few Divine Soul Taoist formulas.
The shopkeeper was suddenly startled, with a confused expression on his face and a mindless expression, and he issued a telegraph instrument.
After a while, a figure stopped in front of the spiritual object shop.
A middle-aged man in the early stage of martial arts.
The shopkeeper took the waiters to evacuate quickly.
Xue Tong recounted it again and added: "Xue borrowed it sincerely, without any second thoughts. Whatever your sect's request is, we can discuss it."
The middle-aged martial saint didn't even think about it and refused on the spot: "No, please take it back, fellow Taoist. There have been stronger monks who have coveted it for hundreds of years, and in the end they all ended up dead. It's best for you, fellow Taoist, to give up this idea." "
Mr. Xue Tong will not be so arrogant as to go to a big town.
He took out a tonic elixir and said, "Mutual benefit, not coveting."
The spiritual power is billowing, and the medicinal fragrance is tangy.
Soothing to the whole body.
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically, "Elixir of Promotion? How many pills did you bring?"
Xue Tong stretched out three fingers. Update without error@
"Okay, the Taoist priest will wait in the backyard!"
Xue Tong nodded and put away the elixir.
…
Xue Tong showed the elixir and discussed with Jiujiu.
What Huijiu meant was that he had collected a hundred sets of the elixir formula of the elixir. It would not be difficult to buy it later. The ghost tripod is rare and hard to come by. It is worth spending a few elixirs.
The only worry is that deep in the hinterland, it is not very safe.
Xue Tongjing waited for half a day.
The sound of footsteps outside the courtyard revealed the arrival of three people.
The middle-aged Martial Saint opened the door and introduced the second cultivator.
The leader, the old man, has a dark complexion, a black robe and an agate crown, and a sinister aura in the middle stage of the Martial Saint.
The high-level ones are indeed different, because they practice dark-type ghost skills. "Xue Tongxin said.
"Master Hao, the deputy sect master, is the master in charge of the affairs hall, Master Mao." The middle-aged man introduced.
"Nice to meet you!" Xue Tong greeted politely.
The middle-aged man exited, leaving only three people in the small courtyard. Under the eaves, a skeleton puppet stood.
"Fellow Taoist, did you borrow the tripod to refine this soul object?" Deputy Sect Leader Hao asked.
The topic started and the discussion lasted for nearly half an hour.
Xue Tong proposed that the deep sect needs a safety guarantee. In addition to the oath taken by the sect leader, the natal magic weapon must also be pledged during the use of the tripod.
Hao Mao promised to go up the mountain in half a year after the sect leader was confirmed.
"Can I borrow the elixir to test it?" Deputy Sect Master Hao asked.
Xue Tong was not worried about the two of them causing trouble, so he pushed the elixir to him.
"It's not like the elixir of immortality"
"The eight-grade immortality-boosting elixir has almost no difference in efficacy. The quality and fragrance are no problem."
Hao and Mao observed for a long time and confirmed that the elixir was genuine.
"Meet at the town gate on September 6th!" Xue Tong said.
…
Xue Tong practiced in the mountainous area of Qianfeng's southern region for half a year, and settled down on time.
Meet the real person.
Xue Tong and the vultures looked at each other.
The eagle nodded.
Then the convoy entered the mountains.
After driving for two days, we turned into a dark valley, where the howling wind was eerie and terrifying.
Xue Tong once went to the ghost world and figured out where the treasure tripod was, which seemed to be a boundary.
The mountain was dark, and the stone gate at the foot of the mountain slowly moved away.
Xue Tong was accompanied by Deputy Sect Master Hao and walked into the mountain.
After twisting and turning, we entered a spacious stone room.
"The two of us are waiting here. The soul beasts have entered the inner chamber. The ghosts, gods and humans are in the middle stage. The total number is about a hundred. They will be introduced one after another within a day. In critical situations, the ape can scream for help. Once the inner chamber door is opened, the ghost cauldron practice will stop." Hao The deputy sect master said.
Xue Tong released the violent ape and explained his thoughts.
…
The stone door of the inner chamber is closed.
After a while, the ghost howled, the north wall of the inner room opened, and ghosts poured out.
The peak violent ape roared excitedly, smashed the ghost's head with one palm, and sucked the ghost's soul energy.
Xue Tong's nervousness gradually eased. His consciousness increased along the way, and he was sure that there was no trap, so he could take a rest now. .
