We also need to go back in time a little bit.
Just when Qiu Huahe was on the top of Pinghai Peak, in order to find the egg of Qingluan that might be there, he made his spiritual bird, the human-faced owl, use various methods to create countless clones, leaving Tang Ping and others at the foot of the mountain stunned. At that time, at the same time, in the distance, Chu Yuan and others were following all the way in order not to be thrown away by the money tide.
Pinghaifeng is already considered the southern end of Wuling Sect. It is difficult for Chu Yuan's people to approach Qian Chao and the five others from any direction. After all, the seaside is to the south. Generally, disciples of the sect rarely go to the seaside when doing errands, so If you get close to the five people here, you will definitely be suspected, so Chu Yuan asked everyone to hide their bodies as much as possible, and cautiously moved towards the place where Qian Chao and others were stopping. At the same time, he also sent out the most astute men under his command. When people went to inspect it, they were specifically told not to get too close. They would rather not see clearly than expose Xingzang.
Chu Yuan did not expect what he would encounter here today. Although his cultivation was at a high level in Qi Refining, to be honest, in terms of knowledge, he was still a little behind, at least worse than Qian Chao and the other five. Quite a few. Therefore, when he first saw a dark cloud-like scene appearing at Pinghai Peak from a distance, he didn't realize at first that what he saw was the method of the alchemy monk, or because he was far away, he just thought The weather was not very good, and the sudden dark clouds seemed to be just dark clouds blown by the strong wind from the sea. In the blink of an eye, there might be a heavy downpour nearby.
But then when the dark cloud quickly covered the entire mountain peak as if falling from the sky, Chu Yuan immediately understood that it was not a dark cloud at all, it was... He had to distinguish it carefully before he became frightened. He discovered that... they were demonic birds that he had never seen before. They were hiding in countless numbers and were circling up and down the mountain peak!
And at the foot of that mountain, there were five Qianchao people!
Firstly, he had limited experience, and secondly, he had suffered a lot. The suspicious Chu Yuan's heart immediately turned upside down!
Have you been fooled again?
As for why the word "you" is used, it is because after Chu Yuan saw Qian Chao's ten-game winning streak, he always felt that Qian Chao was a more powerful and unpredictable figure than Luo Ying, so he decided to The nightmare they encountered the first time they followed Luo Ying was a trap set by Qian Chao for them.
He must have been fooled, Qian Chao must have set some trap there, waiting for people like him to break through!
Just like that night, a terrifying earth nightmare suddenly emerged from the ground. In just a few moments, at least 30% of the people Chu Yuan brought with him were swallowed by the earth nightmare. The terrifying scene that happened in the darkness never stopped. Chu Yuan was still frightened. If he hadn't seen the opportunity early and escaped quickly, he would have become a delicacy in the belly of the demon.
And now the vision in the distance ahead... Chu Yuan naturally didn't know what it was about, but it was because of this fear of the unknown that he never dared to move forward.
Not only him, but everyone around him was also stunned, and they were all shocked and frightened.
"Senior Brother Chu, what is that in front of you?" Someone next to Chu Yuan asked in fear.
"I don't know, but now... we must not go any further. Let's wait and find out what is going on there." Chu Yuan said.
To understand it, you have to go to the front and take a closer look, but at this time, no one around Chu Yuan had the courage to get close.
Now most of the people around Chu Yuan had experienced the nightmare that night. Even if Chu Yuan was still giving orders at this time, they would all turn pale with fear.
After watching for a while, Chu Yuan found that the monster beasts seemed to be flying up and down around the mountain, and there was nothing unusual about them. There seemed to be no sign of rushing toward them. He looked carefully, and the monster beasts appeared from time to time. Falling down on that mountain peak and flying up again, it seems that you are... looking for something?
What's so weird about that mountain peak?
Was the vision caused by the money wave?
Is he looking for something there... treasure?
treasure!
While he was thinking wildly, Chu Yuan suddenly heard a strange cry from the distance, and then he discovered that the countless monster birds that covered the entire mountain peak suddenly flew into the sky together. Then it suddenly dispersed. Was it found or not found?
But Chu Yuan immediately stopped thinking about this, because he was extremely horrified to find that there were many demonic birds flying over from his side.
…
Whether it is between monks or monsters, or between humans and monsters, as long as there is an encounter, as long as the gap between the two parties is too great, the weaker party will immediately feel strong pressure... and boundless pressure. of fear!
This is what happened to Chu Yuan and those who followed him.
There is a short distance between Chu Yuan and Qian Chao. This is because Chu Yuan was worried that people like him would be discovered by Qian Chao in front of him, but this distance...those weird monster birds arrived in an instant. , and then Chu Yuan and others woke up and no longer even thought of escaping...
The wind and waves flapping their wings hit the ground directly. Under the threat of Qiu Huahe's human-faced owl, these people could only look up blankly, their legs as heavy as if they were filled with mercury!
Some demonic birds landed in front, while most of the demonic birds flew past and flew further behind Chu Yuan. Of course, there were also those demonic birds that flew straight down from above their heads and landed. By the side of Chu Yuan and everyone else!
The extremely powerful pressure was like invisible but qualitative shackles, which completely restrained these Qi Refining disciples and shocked them. Nearly a hundred people were standing or squatting without making any sound. It was as quiet as death. Every one of them was stunned. Their faces were ashen, and on the surface, these people were just shaking slightly, but at this time, their hearts in their chests were beating like a drum. Even so, none of them dared to move at all!
They are all afraid that even if there is even a trace of abnormality that angers the monster-like demon bird in front of them, it will start killing here!
As for escaping, they didn't dare at all. In the face of such strong pressure, running away would not only anger the other party, but also give them no chance of escaping!
What a weird demon bird... After all, no one has ever seen a demon bird with a human face!
Not only does it have a weird human face, but it also has an ape-like body, sharp claws, strong wings, and a big black dog tail swinging around!
The most terrible thing is that the person's face is still full of curiosity and disdain, sweeping it from all their faces in turn!
This human-faced owl is Qiu Huahe's spiritual bird. Logically speaking, it should be a spiritual bird of the same level as Fairy Guhuo's Ninth Girl. It's just that Fairy Guhuo spent more effort on that Ninth Girl, while Qiu Huahe was single-minded. Traveling all over the world to find a fox with the blood of the ancient true spirit (this was explained before Tang Ping became a disciple, when Tang Bonian persuaded Fairy Guhuo to accept Tang Ping as her disciple), therefore, Qiu Huahe was in front of this person. Xiao Xiao didn't put much effort into it. Although Qiu Huahe is the senior brother of Fairy Guhuo, his own skills may be superior to Guhuo, but in terms of the two soul birds, the strength of Ninth Girl is actually higher than that of this human-faced owl. The simplest An example of this is... Ninth Girl can take on the form of a beautiful young woman almost every time it appears in front of Tang Ping, while this human-faced owl can only show its true appearance to others. .
However, even so, if you look at the human-faced owl as a monk, in front of Qi refining monks like Chu Yuan, it is still equivalent to a monk in the early stage of pill formation. Therefore, in front of the human-faced owl, people like Chu Yuan It’s just meat on the chopping board!
Even though the human-faced owl next to Chu Yuan is just a clone, the powerful aura it exudes still makes these people despair!
I don’t know how long it took, but a wave of spiritual energy seemed to spread here from a distance, and then I saw the frightening demon bird fluttering its wings and flying rapidly, and then the sound of flapping wings in the air started again. The sound kept coming, Chu Yuan was sweating profusely and looked up tremblingly, and saw the countless demonic birds in the air flying towards the mountain peak again.
Fortunately, those monster birds seemed to have little interest in them.
Is this... saving a life?
When Chu Yuan thought of this, he felt a cold sweat on his back.
He had long thought that the monster he encountered that night could not have been raised by Qian Chao, and the demon bird he met today could not have been raised by Qian Chao, but it was always related to Qian Chao!
Why did he let a demon bird fall in front of him?
Are you trying to scare yourself?
Or are you warning yourself not to follow him again?
Just when those countless monster birds gathered into a dark cloud above the mountain peak, someone suddenly shouted next to Chu Yuan in a trembling and changed voice:
"I...I'm not looking for it anymore...I'm scared!"
Then the sound of clothes breaking through the air disappeared.
Finally someone was frightened and ran away.
Fear is contagious. If one person escapes, there will be another one... Until the end, Chu Yuan could not suppress the fear in his heart and turned around to chase those who escaped!
Unexpectedly, Qiu Huahe's search for Qingluan's egg saved Qian Chao and others a lot of trouble, because in the next period of time, Qian Chao kept flying up and down the Pinghai Peak. Keep checking.
…
Let’s talk about Qian Chao.
Qiu Huahe finally left, and Tang Ping, who was tensed up, finally relaxed. He was shaken by Yan Xuan and caught him.
"What's wrong?" Yanxuan asked with concern.
"It's nothing, my Master Qiu is a scary person!"
Tang Ping did not tell the truth, but the truth is... If Qiu Huahe knew that there was a little white fox in Tang Ping's spirit beast bag, according to his acting style, he would definitely try to rob him regardless of his face. of my nephew.
Senior Guhuo must have been prepared for it. When Tang Ping told her about Shangguan Hong, the Dan-Jie elder of the Yuling Sect specially took out a spirit beast bag from his private collection for Tang Ping to use. , and told her that this spirit beast bag was specially used for spirit beasts such as Xiaobai and Dahuang. Tang Ping's other spirit beasts should still use the original spirit beast bag.
As for this spirit beast bag, it may not be that good, but it has an important function, which is to completely block the powerful induction detection of the Danjie monk. Even if one day this little apprentice of hers encounters her, As Uncle Qiu, there is no need to worry about Xiaobai being discovered by him.
This spirit beast bag came in handy today, but even so, Tang Ping tensed her heartstrings in front of Qiu Huahe. After all, Xiaobai was her life gate. If someone took it away, she would feel more than just distressed. That’s it!
"Well, almost," Lu Pingchuan interjected, "That junior uncle of yours doesn't look like... hey... he doesn't look like a good person! Not to mention he is very weird, look at the strange bird he raised, it has a human face. If you don’t speak, you can speak human words and wink at people, be good!”
Yanxuan then remembered the fear that the human-faced owl had given her just now, and couldn't help but nod her head.
"But he didn't find the Qingluan egg that Miss Tang wanted here either. This shouldn't be a lie given his status." Li Jian said.
"Then..." Qingluan's egg is the most important thing to Tang Ping. She could see clearly just now that the disappointment on Qiu Huahe's face was definitely not fake. Indeed, as Li Jian said, with his status He would not lie to a junior like himself. If he really found the Qingluan Egg here, he might hand it over to the Shangguan sisters in front of him.
"Boy Qian, what should we do if there isn't one here? Where should we look for it?" Tang Ping asked.
Qian Chao looked up at the mountain peak and said:
"This is the most likely place for Qingluan to lay eggs in the area marked out by your master, Senior Guhuo, and Master Shangguanhong's presence here proves this point. Both Senior Jiedan believe that this is the place where Qingluan will lay eggs." Here, but the Lian Dan cultivator can’t be found here... Girl Tang, the matter has come to this, I’m not in a hurry to leave, I want to take a closer look here.”
"That person named Qiu said there is no more here. Why are we still here? We have to look for it quickly. We have to find Qingluan's egg before Shangguan Granny. Huh, look at Shangguan Granny. I looked so proud when I saw him, but I felt unhappy in my heart!" Lu Pingchuan said.
"Don't be anxious. Since Qiu Huahe said there are no Qingluan eggs here, he can't be wrong. But he just didn't find the eggs. He didn't seem to find out why Qingluan didn't lay eggs here. Girl Tang, This is the place that both your master and your uncle recognized. They thought they were wrong, but they were both wrong. There must be a reason. Instead of looking around like headless chickens, we should first find out why Qingluan Maybe we can find out why they no longer lay eggs here, which will also be good for us to look for the Qingluan eggs in the future."
Tang Ping nodded.
"Okay, then it's as you say."
