"When the head of the Huangfu family said this, can it be understood that even if the soul is not entering the path of death, it is still entering with bare hands?" Si Yi asked.
Huangfu responded respectfully.
Wu Pu said, "In this case, it is better to let more disciples from the family enter together. With more people, we may have a better chance of finding the owner of Guiyuan Mountain."
"This matter is no small matter." Huangfu Jing said, "Even if the magic power is disabled regardless of the realm, the strength of the physical body still exists. Even if we give up the physical body, the Yuanling can reshape the physical body without affecting it. Cultivation and state of mind, but the physical injuries suffered by those low-level cultivators have a lot to do with it."
Huangfu Qi then continued, "But we have also thought about this. After we enter the Road of Fall, we will not seal the entrance. If those low-level cultivators who want to explore the secret realm want to break in, they can just enter at will. As for the final life and death, it has nothing to do with us."
Zhao Ning only held the tea on the desk, brushing the tea leaves along the edge of the cup lid, feeling that Huangfu Jing was a seeker.
However, there seemed to be some people who did not agree with the Huangfu family's words. Pu Yan said, "The road to death is not so easy. No matter how many low-level cultivators there are, they will be reduced to withered bones."
He opened his eyes, and his light swept over everyone present, pausing only on Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan, and then said, "In the end, I'm afraid even we will get lost in it."
"Venerable Pu Yan." Huangfu Jing said with some respect, "You also went through the road of death. I wonder if you have other insights."
"I can't talk about opinions." Pu Yan said, "This is a warning."
This made everyone even more stunned.
Pu Yan continued, "I should have met the real owner of Weiyue Mountain back then. He was not an easy person to get along with."
Everyone was stunned by his words, and Huangfu Jing was even more nervous, "Why haven't you heard Venerable Pu Yan mention it?"
Pu Yan did not answer Huangfu Jing's words, and only said, "That is not the human race, but the demon race. No matter how many races there are, I am afraid that the races will be mutually exclusive after all, and..."
He glanced at everyone, "Xiang Liu, have you heard of this?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Ning's heart skipped a beat, but his emotions were usually flat and he didn't show them, so he saw the different expressions on the faces of everyone present.
Huangfu Jing, Huangfu Qi, Si Yi, and Fan Ze were all calm, while the others either changed their expressions or got angry.
"Isn't that an ancient ferocious beast?!" It was Min Lun who spoke.
Huangfu Jing was stunned by this startling statement, and after a while he asked in the weird atmosphere of the whole hall, "Ancient ferocious beast? I don't know which ancient secret scripture Master Min Lun learned from, but the name Xiang Liu is rarely heard." "
Min Lun was startled, and looked across the crowd, only to find that some people had strange eyes, some were indifferent, and Pu Yan in particular had a look that was half-smiling but not smiling.
Min Lun suddenly woke up and realized that he seemed to have exposed something.
So he sat down slowly and pretended that everything was as usual and said, "Oh? Haven't you heard about it? I saw the news in an ancient cave in Lingding County. However, the secret book is really weird. , I can no longer be found.”
Then he turned his gaze to Pu Yan, "What do you think, Venerable Pu Yan?"
He returned Pu Yan's half-smiling expression to Pu Yan.
Pu Yan was calm and didn't say anything at all. He just continued what he said just now, "I'm not talking about Xiang Liu. This Xiang Liuyi said it was a description I heard from a fellow Taoist, saying that this ancient monster has a human head and a snake body. It is very vicious, and is not friendly to humans. Thinking about it again, the shadow of the vicious beast I met at that time just feels very similar to it, so I would like to remind everyone that on this trip, I am afraid that I will face the vicious beast from ancient times. Things are more dangerous than good."
Huangfu Jing frowned, "Whether it's an ancient monster like Xiang Liu or not, since it's a ferocious beast, we have to be extremely cautious."
He looked at Min Lun and said, "Fellow Taoist was shocked to see this ancient monster just now. I don't know if there are any new clues."
Min Lun took a look and shifted the topic to himself again, "I don't know about it either, but it seems to be mentioned in the ancient secret book that this Xiangliu feeds on the human race."
As soon as these words came out, the others were no longer calm. Even Fan Ze, who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind, could not help but frown.
Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan were indifferent from the beginning to the end. They were like bystanders, seeing through Pu Yan's actions just now. Regardless of whether the monster was Xiang Liu or not, Xiang Liu was indeed the ancient figure in the legend of Yu Yu's Nine Heavens. Almost everyone knows about monsters when they reach the realm of Yuanshen. Only if there are such monsters in Tianfu, you can roughly guess it by looking at Huangfu Jing's performance.
In other words, Pu Yan just used the name of a monster to easily capture a few people who might have come from Yu Yu's ninth heaven.
Zhao Ning sipped the cup of tea. The tea was freshly brewed, but there was no astringency at all. Instead, it was sweet and sweet in her throat.
As expected of an old guy who has lived for tens of thousands of years, it was just a small temptation. Something deeply hidden, such as Min Lun, was exposed inadvertently.
To put it bluntly, who would have thought that a casual description of a monster could determine the origin of everyone present.
At this time, Zhao Ning put down the teacup and said calmly, "Both venerables have explored the road to death. It is the road. I wonder if there is a route?"
Everyone's discussion just now became a little quieter. After talking so much, how to go is the most important thing.
Huangfu Jing did not hide it, "I haven't gone far enough, so I can only briefly show you the path I took."
As he spoke, he raised his hand a little, and a shadow gradually appeared in the void in the center of the main hall. The shadow was like a map, slowly outlined, until most of it was filled with dense forests, deserts, and swamps, and a winding road appeared. Triggered from the dense forest, all the way into the swamp.
Huangfu asked Pu Yan respectfully, "Venerable Pu Yan, I wonder if the path of decline that I have experienced is similar to yours."
Pu Yan said, "There are some changes, but the final direction is still similar."
As he spoke, he raised his hand a little, and the spiritual light shone in the map that Huangfu Jing had shown. The map was distorted, and the route slightly bypassed a mountain forest area, then went straight into the desert, until a swamp appeared, and the reappearance further behind. In the desert area, I saw him marking a point.
"It's probably at this location. The shadow of the monster I encountered."
Everyone took a look, and the memory of Lord Yuanshen allowed them to quickly remember these in their minds.
Si Yi said, "It's strange that there is a swamp in the middle of the desert."
Pu Yan said, "When I crossed the desert and saw the swamp, I thought I had reached the last area. Unexpectedly, I wandered around for a long time without finding the answer, so I had to go out and met the shadow of the monster. "
Si Yi heard this and stopped talking.
Huangfu Jing raised his hand to disperse the shadow of the map, stood up and said with a smile, "In any case, the route of this trip is not precise. If you encounter interference from the formation or ancient power again, please take care of yourself."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and picked up a cup of tea, "I wish we can get a satisfactory answer in Hidden Dragon Valley."
After saying this, the tea was drained in one gulp, and everyone followed suit.
Weiyue Mountain is located in the primeval forest three thousand miles away. For everyone in the realm of Yuanshen, Shattering Void can be reached in a moment, but there is no rush to set off now.
There were still a few hours before the moon rose, and everyone in the main hall was communicating among themselves. Perhaps because of the episode just now, Min Lun approached Pu Yan again to test, while Huangfu Jing left the meeting after being informed by his family about the matter.
Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan were just onlookers. After knowing everything they needed to know, they stopped communicating with the people around them.
Zhao Ning whispered beside Qin Keyuan, "The spiritual energy of the world is so chaotic, but the spiritual tea is extremely clear and fragrant."
Qin Keyuan said, "I don't think it was cultivated with the help of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."
"Each tea garden has a dedicated tea server, and even their techniques are related to the essence of tea." Si Yi suddenly approached and took up their topic.
Zhao Ning glanced at her and nodded slightly, "I see, I don't know much about it."
Si Yi smiled, but the smile did not catch his eyes. He just asked, "Are you going directly to Hidden Dragon Valley like this?"
Zhao Ning knew what she wanted to say, but he got the news about Yanran and the others but didn't seem to care about their life or death.
Before Zhao Ning could speak, Qin Keyuan replied, "Hidden Dragon Valley should always be a necessary step."
Si Yi stopped smiling and just glanced at them, knowing that Zhao Ning had told Qin Keyuan everything. She was not surprised but did not agree with it, but in the end she said nothing more and returned to her own seat, wondering what she was thinking about.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the new moon was already high in the sky.
Everyone walked out of Huangfu's house. Huangfu's house looked quite lively. Huangfu Jing and Huangfu Qi arrived late.
Huangfu Jing apologized and said, "The other Yuanshen Masters of our family have returned and handed over the family affairs to their hands. It took some time. Don't blame me."
Naturally, no one said anything. Pu Yan had already cut open the void, and a crack in the sky connected the unknown area. He had already entered first.
The others followed closely, Zhao Ning stepped into the crack in the sky, and glanced at the main room of Huangfu's house without leaving a trace, and saw the consciousness of Yuan Shen passing by them.
But Zhao Ning did not go into details and followed Qin Keyuan into the sky.
His vision changed, and what appeared in front of him was a dark area.
Half a mile ahead was a mountain forest, but the forest seemed to have lost its color and swallowed up all the light and color around it.
"This is the Strange Meteor Mountain."
The entire Weiyue Mountain exuded a strong death aura. At the same time, the spiritual consciousness was passed over. The mountain forest that absorbed the light and color also made the spiritual consciousness sink into the sea, making it impossible to fathom.
However, that was only trapped in the rest of the people. Zhao Ning could still sense some of the sensations, but it did not spread to the entire area.
Zhao Ning glanced at Qin Keyuan and he nodded slightly.
Maybe this Weiyue Mountain was affected by the realm and broke through the three tribulation souls. The laws here did not completely suppress their spiritual consciousness.
Si Yi was extremely cautious, and after his spiritual consciousness could not penetrate the forests of Weiyu Mountain, he expanded his spiritual consciousness outwards. There were pristine barren mountains within a hundred miles, but Si Yi said strangely, "I saw a lot of people going to Weiyu Mountain." On the road, there are still the shadows of some low-level cultivators, how come they know the dangers of Weiyu Mountain, but they still keep coming to Weiyu Mountain."
Huangfu Qi said coldly, "Wealth is sought in danger. Everyone in the Misty Meteor Mountain is a mortal. Countless people have fallen among them, and even more are powerful. If the remains of these powerful people are found..."
Needless to say the rest, everyone knows that for low-level cultivators, powerful relics are a windfall.
Since resources are scarce and we have to struggle in the primitive forest, it would be better to go to the end and go directly to the Strange Meteor Mountain.
"Okay." Pu Yan couldn't bear it anymore, "The light of the new moon has been reflected, it's time."
Everyone raised their eyes and took a look, and saw that the black forest that had absorbed all the light and color was exposed by the moonlight, revealing a crescent area.
The contrast between black and white is really obvious.
Everyone no longer waited, they jumped into the air and entered directly from the crescent moon area.
As soon as he entered, he felt an extremely oppressive force shrouding his body, as if a gravity exceeding the limit was exerted on his body, forcing all the magic power to be restrained, and even the divine light around him disappeared.
In an instant, all the venerables who had not entered this place almost fell to the ground.
Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan were not completely suppressed, but they did not show it. They just landed smoothly and looked at the surrounding situation.
The entire Weiyu Mountain was extremely quiet, and the air of death was permeating the air. From the outside, it looked like just patches of black forest, but when you entered the real Yuyu Mountain, what you saw were countless dark and rotten dead trees.
After tens of thousands of years of accumulating death energy, the wind-eroded parts of these dead trees twisted to form eyes or mouths. They looked a bit like soul trees, but they had no spirit and only had the breath of death.
Zhao Ning glanced over, and with just the technique of observing Qi, he could feel that these dead trees formed a circulation of dead Qi among each other, and the area several feet facing the eyes and mouth of the dead trees showed an invisible floating mist. .
That is the anger within the scope of sucking.
"Don't get close to these dead trees." Si Yi suddenly said, "This dead wood can swallow up longevity."
Huangfu Jing and Pu Yan glanced at her. When they first entered, they realized it after being personally affected.
Huangfu Jing hurriedly said, "I forgot to tell you that this forest of dead wood is indeed a place that sucks up lifespan. Although our lifespan is endless, we should still avoid it to some extent."
Everyone was just a mortal at the moment, so they were cautious. After hearing this, they no longer approached the dead wood, but quickly walked in a certain direction.
Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan walked behind. Zhao Ning whispered, "Since this dead wood has sucked the life essence, it is still not alive at all. Maybe it has moved to other places."
Qin Keyuan responded, "It's better to be careful."
But the strange thing is that until they reached the edge of the dead wood forest and entered the seemingly ordinary forest, they didn't encounter anything strange.
The smooth journey seems to be a dead thing.
"Why did we arrange so many dead trees in the beginning of the Road to Fall? They didn't block our path at all. Could it be just for intimidation?" Min Lun asked suspiciously.
"You can't say that. Maybe there were some abnormalities when the ancient monsters fell, which caused the changes here." Huangfu Jing said, "For example, the blood of the body's decline."
"That makes sense." Others agreed, but their eyes became more solemn because of this, "If the monsters here are in the realm of gods..."
