Following the clues given by Xiang Xie, Shi Chishang and others groped their way forward after leaving Qiuxian Mansion. During this period, they also encountered several groups of blood beasts and some restricted obstacles. Fortunately, they were able to successfully find the blood beast a few blocks away. Beast carcasses.
This is a bear-shaped blood beast, with only a pile of skeletons left. Fortunately, based on the smell of flesh and blood left on Snake Zhan, it can be judged that this is indeed the blood beast corpse that Nightmare and others discovered when Snake Zhan was discovered.
"Damn, this guy's flesh has been chewed up almost completely," Qian Yixiao frowned as he stared at the dense tooth marks on the bones, "What should I do?"
Hu Zhebin nodded and said: "If the corpse is still complete, we may be able to deduce its cause of death and the direction in which it came. But now, it is impossible to deduce the whereabouts of the ghost!"
Everyone was greatly disappointed and could only pin their hopes on Shi Chishang and Zhu Chaoqun.
The former was holding a snake chopper and half-crouching in front of the corpse, as if thinking about something. The latter was offering Qingyun Danxin to increase his wisdom, and then he was running his meditation mind to scan the entire skeleton carefully, trying his best to analyze what could be obtained. information.
This Qingyun Danxin is indeed an extraordinary companion treasure. In addition to being able to withstand the erosion of external forces, it can also increase Zhu Chaoqun's wisdom to a certain extent, allowing her to think about countermeasures against the enemy or comprehend the art of martial arts. Get twice the result with half the effort.
After carefully inspecting it for a long time, Zhu Chaoqun stood up with a bit of joy on his face: "It came from that direction. It should have been severely injured at that time. It didn't hold on until it got here and died. The remaining consciousness marks on the snake are still there." It is very clear, indicating that the blood beast swallowed Snake Slash not long ago, and Snake Slash did not receive a major impact at that time."
"So?" Hu Zhebin asked.
Zhu Chaoqun replied: "So I speculate that the ghost deliberately let the blood beast swallow the snake."
"Why?" Qian Yixiao asked in surprise.
Although he was said to have a perverse temper, he and Huang Chenyang were in the Zhanxie Hall together and had fought together many times, so the two of them actually had a very good relationship. He also knew very well that this comrade-in-arms valued Snake Zhan so much, how could he throw it away casually? Woolen cloth?
Zhu Chaoqun shook his head and said softly: "That's not clear. This is what I can analyze at the moment."
At this time, Shi Chishang also stood up, with a solemn look on his face: "Perhaps Snake Zhan was indeed deliberately swallowed by the blood beast, but his condition was definitely not good at that time. Let's find him as soon as possible!"
Although he did not have Qingyun's heart, Shi Chishang had an insight into the Dao, and with the assistance of the Dao of Virtual and Reality, he found a trace of residual soul power in a wound on the blood beast's corpse.
The Soul Dao was originally created by Shi Chishang, and there were very few people who practiced the Soul Dao, so it could only have been left behind by Huang Chenyang when he was fighting this bloody beast.
Based on the scar and the fluctuation of the remaining soul power, Shi Chishang judged that Huang Chenyang's situation at that time must have been bad. But now that several days have passed, he still doesn't know what his current situation is.
Following Zhu Chaoqun's guessed direction, the group of people explored and moved forward. After crossing several blocks, in the evening of the next day, they came to a sect called Lixuetang.
In Solir Xie's memory, Shi Chishang could not find any information about this sect.
Thinking about it, the Divine Blood City is so huge, with countless family sects located here. Solir has an extraordinary background, so naturally he won't care too much about these peripheral low-level forces.
But what was surprising was that when they arrived, there were several waves of people standing at the entrance of Lexue Hall, and judging from their tense looks, it was obvious that they had not reached an agreement.
The arrival of Shi Chishang and others naturally alarmed these people. When they saw the Yin Yang Sect costumes worn by the eight people, the expressions of several groups of people changed drastically, showing a little fear.
As the three top sects of the Holy Tang Dynasty, the Yin Yang Sect is undoubtedly the local overlord in the eastern part of the Holy Tang Dynasty. Even if a few of them are wearing the clothes of outer disciples, they still make these people extremely fearful.
Seeing the wary looks of everyone on the opposite side, Shi Chishang, who was walking at the front, couldn't help but recall the three years he spent wandering outside, and secretly sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, he had his back against a big tree so he could enjoy the shade. Before, when he was wandering around alone, almost no one would care about him. He could fight and kill him whenever he wanted. But now, it was just a face-to-face meeting. The clothes on his body alone made the other party look like a group of people. Facing a powerful enemy.
"The person opposite is the daughter of Zhu Cishi's family in Xiuzhou?"
At this time, a middle-aged man opposite seemed to recognize Zhu Chaoqun, and hurriedly came forward with a smile on his face: "I am Yin Fei from Xia Yuehu Mansion. This is Quanzi Yinzhe and my daughter Yinxia."
"Master Yin." Seeing the person coming, Zhu Chaoqun was slightly startled, then smiled and nodded in greeting.
The three people opposite, Yin Fei, Yin Zhe, and Yin Xia, are from the Yin family in Yuehu Prefecture. They are considered a small family, but since the two families are separated in two places, they don't have much contact on weekdays.
Shi Chishang glanced at the three people from the Yin family for a few times, then looked at the remaining two groups in the distance. Suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly and he laughed and said: "Friend Blood Daoist, long time no see!"
Facing Shi Chishang's greeting, a young man in blood-clothed clothes in the crowd opposite secretly complained in his heart, but recalling the "painful" experience of meeting this group of people, he quickly put on a smile, cupped his hands and said: "Brothers and sisters of Yin Yang Sect, It’s been a long time.”
This young man in blood-clothed clothes is actually the blood-line monk who appeared in several cases of massacre of villages in Xiuzhou that year.
Xue Yi was born in Xue Guan Dao, Jun Shuizhou, Jiangnan Province. At this time, he was also followed by three Hades Lords, and judging by their clothing, they were all Xue Guan Dao disciples.
After much hesitation, Xueyi led several junior brothers and sisters forward and said with a smile: "Are several senior brothers and sisters also interested in Lexue Hall?"
"No, we are here to find someone, we are just passing by." Shi Chishang shook his head. When everyone from Xueguandao and the Yin family looked happy when they heard this, he grinned again, "Come here anyway." Come on, let’s join in the fun!”
Xue Yi's smile that just appeared suddenly froze.
Yinjia Yinzhe was young and energetic, and could not hide his thoughts. His expression changed instinctively, and he was about to speak, but his father Yin Fei held him down, and said with a smile: "Since all the masters of Yin Yang Sect are interested, then naturally this place is free of charge. A few people call the shots.”
After hearing what Yin Fei said, the expressions of the dozen or so cultivators in the distance changed, and they stared at each other with murderous intent behind them.
Hearing the other party's provocation, Shi Chishang's eyes flashed slightly, but he said calmly, "Fellow Blood Daoist, who are those?"
"Those people are loose cultivators from all over the country," Xueyi didn't know why the other party was staring at him, but he could only answer in a low voice, "Senior brother, please be careful, there are two of them who are quite powerful..."
Listening to Xueyi's narration, Shi Chishang looked calm and glanced at the group of casual cultivators, and finally his eyes rested on the man and woman who were the leaders.
Wu Ju Dao casual cultivator, Zhi Zhi!
Nanling Road casual cultivator, Cui Shuangyin!
These two people are quite famous among the casual cultivators at the level of Ming Lord. The former seems to have a giant master and has a long history. Although the latter comes from a low-level background, he has gathered a group of people with his courage to fight and kill. The desperadoes are quite powerful on Nanling Road.
When he noticed Chi Shang's gaze, Zhi Zhi pinched the corner of his clothes with a timid look on his face, while Cui Shuangyin glared at him with a sinister look on his face, his right hand always pressed on the handle of a butcher's knife at his waist. , seemingly not afraid of their identities as disciples of the Yin Yang Sect.
With a chuckle, Shi Chishang withdrew his gaze, turned to Xueyi and Yin Fei, and chuckled: "Since we are so destined to meet each other, why don't we go in together? Anyway, there are so many opportunities in Shenxue City, so there is no need for us to be here. It’s a fight to the death, right?”
Seeing that Shi Chishang was vaguely the leader of the Yin Yang Sect, Yin Fei and Xueyi both nodded respectfully in agreement.
Seeing this scene, the group of casual cultivators in the distance discussed in low voices for a moment, and then they all came together. Cui Shuangyin, the leader, forced out a smile, raised his hands and clasped his fists, and said in a loud voice: "Cui Shuangyin, I have seen Yin and Yang in Nanling Road. All the geniuses of the sect.”
Zhu Chaoqun's smile faded slightly and he said calmly: "Cui Shuangyin, the leader of the Nanling Dao Fengfeng bandits, the seventeenth most wanted person in the Shengtang Dynasty, with a bounty of 50,000."
Cui Shuangyin's face turned dark when he heard this, and the evil aura was flying around his body. Upon seeing this, Zhizhi quickly smiled and said: "This time we entered the Divine Blood City, the government also issued an order, promising that all past crimes would be wiped out."
Zhu Chaoqun smiled and did not answer. Shi Chishang said calmly: "Anyway, your past crimes have nothing to do with us. Let's find a way to get in together. What opportunities we get will depend on our fate."
Cui Shuangyin had a dark face and said nothing, while Zhizhi nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face.
Afterwards, people from all directions temporarily gathered together and arrived in front of the Lixue Hall.
The entire Lixue Hall covers an area of thousands of acres and spans three blocks. At this time, everyone is standing at the main entrance of Lixue Hall. The door is a hundred feet high and more than a thousand feet wide. Standing in front of the door are dozens of human figures holding blood axes. The bronze statue, since everyone arrived, has always remained motionless, like a dead thing, no matter how fierce the quarrel outside is.
And when everyone gathered together and began to approach the door, the dozens of bronze statues of blood axes all turned their necks and stared at each other. Wisps of blood mist also spread from the joints of their bodies, lingering around their bodies. Not scattered.
"Go up directly?" Qian Yixiao asked eagerly.
Shi Chishang rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and his eyebrows were a bit solemn.
When the Divine Blood City was sealed, Solir Xie was still sleeping in the Qiuxian Mansion, so there was no information in his memory about the time when the Divine Blood City was sealed, and there was no information about the inheritance methods of the major forces at that time.
If you are lucky and the forces you encounter know that the day of unblocking is far away, they may leave a legacy within the sect, and you can obtain the legacy simply by passing the assessment.
But if you encounter those who are extremely vicious and set up various death restrictions within the sect, you will be really unlucky.
Taking a deep breath, Shi Chishang was about to step forward to experience it for himself, when Zhizhi next to him suddenly smiled and said, "Senior brother, wait a minute, let me let my little sister try out the reality of this place."
"You?" Shi Chishang turned his head, Zhizhi smiled brightly, reached out and took out a stack of white paper from his pocket.
This is a stack of paper-cuts that look like window stickers, and they have all been cut out. They are all human-shaped. When the paper fat is thrown up, the paper-cuts fly and scatter all over the sky. As the clouds and smoke spread, flat human shapes emerge from the sky. Walking out of the paper-cut sky, he walked towards the door of Lixue Hall like a living creature.
"Is this...paper-cut?" Shi Chishang was slightly startled and laughed.
"It's just paper cutting," Zhizhi smiled lightly and replied softly.
"Hmph! Showing off!" Seeing her soft and frail appearance, Cheng Baihe felt inexplicably unhappy and snorted coldly.
