There is a narrow path behind the corner gate. No one has walked on it for an unknown period of time. There are weeds all over the road, and there is almost no trace of earth color. Against the background of large and small blue-gray rocks all around, looking at it, the winding upward path is like a small green snake, heading straight to the top of the mountain in the distance.
The top of the mountain was pitch black, and the black clouds were extremely low, as if they were only a finger's width away from the equally charred rocks.
Streams of golden and white light and shadow fell one after another, carving long and furious streaks in the clouds and on the top of the mountain!
It's like gold falling on black satin, with white remaining in the ink.
It’s both bright and shocking!
boom!
Rumble…
Faintly, there were dull thunderous sounds coming from far away.
The explosion hit the valley ahead, and there were echoes again, but the sound also faded away a lot.
Lin Ji glanced at it from a distance and immediately discovered that the valley in the distance was also a magic circle.
It is composed of blue boulders piled up in an arc shape, and the layers are getting higher and higher, shaped like a snail ear.
As soon as the thunder that fell from the top of the cloud mountain passed here, it was weakened and eliminated.
Because of this, Leiyun Temple, which was within a thousand feet away, was not disturbed by it, and could not even hear the slightest noise of thunder.
Lin Ji stepped on the tips of the grass and walked slowly and calmly. Liao Chen let go of his four paws and ran all the way. Soon he crossed the valley and fell halfway down.
The winding path suddenly stopped when it reached here.
Standing in front of him was a majestic boulder that was three feet high.
The stone is engraved with four characters: "I want to seal the sky!"
Horizontal and vertical, majestic.
It is the handwriting of the Holy Emperor.
When Lin Ji saw these four words, he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Throughout the ages, there are only two unified dynasties in the world of Jiuzhou that can be called "I".
The Great Cang of Xuanyuan is the great Qin of the Qin family.
And the only one who can stand here with such extraordinary momentum is Xuanyuan Wuji!
It is not a secret that there is a peerless sword hidden in Leiyun Mountain - at least it is known to almost everyone among those who have entered and achieved Taoism.
That being the case: How could the several great masters in the Three Saints Cave and the Dao Formation Sect not know that what is hidden here is the Dao Sword, one of the Four Swords? !
What's more, according to what Liao Chen said, those Daochengjing people have also been here one after another.
But they told me that one of the four was missing, and the Taoist sword had long been missing...
I am afraid that my concentration is insufficient and my cultivation is not good enough. If you want to seize this sword, will you suffer harm?
Or maybe there is something else...
"Donor Lin..."
Lin Jigang was about to step forward, but Liao Chen, who had transformed into his true form, said with some embarrassment: "I don't have the Thunder Cloud Order in my hand yet, but I don't dare to go any further! Once we pass the Soundproof Valley, let alone be struck by lightning. , even just hearing the thunder is a bit unbearable! This is especially true for the demon and ghost tribes. Donor, look..."
As he said that, he glanced down the mountain again seemingly unintentionally.
Obviously, he was afraid of being caught up by the demon monk in the temple.
Originally, he almost died in prison in order to keep the Thunder Cloud Order, but he was proud and magnanimous and looked forward to death.
But after meeting Lin Ji, he suddenly felt hopeful again.
Since life is possible, who wants to die?
People talk about the afterlife, Buddha talks about reincarnation.
But as long as life hangs on a thread and the road is not over, who wants to go to the next life or reincarnation? !
Of course, another meaning of Liao Chen Wei's embarrassment is...
Until now, he has not dared to take out the Thunder Cloud Token.
"Okay!" Lin Ji nodded, raised his hand, and the Heavenly Sage flew into the air.
With a swish sound, he quickly circled around the stone tablet.
It fell to the ground and formed a large circle more than half a foot deep and about two feet in diameter: "Just wait for me here. If the demon monk comes, I will know it then."
"Okay, thank you, thank you!" Liao Chen quickly jumped into the circle and nodded to Lin Ji.
Lin Ji withdrew the holy sword and walked a dozen or so feet when he suddenly turned and stared at a piece of bluestone, raised his eyebrows and said, "Come out!"
The stone trembled slightly and suddenly grew larger.
Immediately afterwards, a thin and withered little old man raised his head from his tightly hugged knees, his wrinkles instantly smoothed out, he smiled at Lin Ji and said: "Don't be weird, Heavenly Official, I am Sun Tuzi, obey the master's orders, especially. Wait here."
Lin Ji glanced at it and saw that it was a monster transformed from a rock.
If calculated based on the realm of the human race, it would only be around the early stage of the Sixth Realm at most.
But it is extremely difficult for Shanshi to transform into a demon, and it may have taken more than thousands of years.
"Who is your master?" Lin Ji asked.
"South China Sea Fire Island." The old man stood up, cupped his hands and respectfully replied, "Huo Qianfan."
"The master ordered us five brothers to sneak to Jiuzhou and inquire about the second young master. Once we know where the second young master is, we must inform the Heavenly Official as soon as possible."
The second young master naturally refers to Huo Bufan.
"The second young master has been here for more than half a year, but my brothers have never been able to find the trace of Tianguan, so I will stay here and keep an eye on the second young master's whereabouts. If there are any changes, I will contact the others at any time. But I didn't expect...the Heavenly Official came to find him on his own. The master said that when you see the Heavenly Official, you must obey your orders and obey all orders."
I see.
It seems that the old guy Huo Qianfan is living up to his word.
Lin Ji nodded: "Sun Tuzi, right?"
"Yes!" The little old man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I have five brothers who are called metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The heavenly official can call me Xiao Wu or Sun Wu."
"Okay, Sun Wu, let me ask you, is your second young master still on the mountain?"
"Yes, it's three miles up from here."
"What has he been doing?"
"Judging from his movements and gestures, he should be refining some Taoist artifact. I don't dare to get too close for fear of being noticed by him. So I haven't seen clearly what it is."
Lin Ji nodded and then asked, "Besides him, who else is here?"
"Back to Tianguan, on the top of the mountain, besides the second young master, there is also an old madman."
"Huh? Tell me in detail!"
"Yes! That old madman, with long fiery red hair hanging down to the length of his knees, holding a three-pointed two-edged long knife in his hand, ran around around the thunder clouds on the top of the mountain all day long, without eating or drinking. I didn’t see him practicing either. Sometimes he was talking about something, sometimes he was yelling at the sky, sometimes he was laughing, sometimes he was crying! Anyway, I never saw him calm down for even a moment..."
Lin Jiyi frowned and asked, "Have you ever met the second young master of your family?"
"So it happened." Sun Tuzi responded quickly: "The two of them seemed to have known each other before. When the second young master didn't come, the lunatic didn't say a word, didn't cry or laugh, and just wandered around the thunder clouds. See you. On the day I married the second young master, the two of them sat across from each other and laughed and drank a lot of wine. For three days and three nights, they didn't finish talking. I didn't dare to come forward, and I didn't know what the two of them said. Anyway, That’s what that madman has been like since then.”
Lin Ji frowned and said, "Send a message to your master and tell him to come here quickly wherever he is!"
With that said, he stepped forward and walked straight to the top of the mountain.
