Seemingly sensing what Gong Yue was thinking, his companion reminded him, "That kind-hearted senior has probably left."
Lu Yue didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly she gritted her teeth and stood up to chase after him.
"Hey, Gong Yue, wait for me!"
His companions quickly followed.
Lu Yue chased him to the fork in the road, looked left and right, and immediately saw a black shadow blocking the white light in the exit road.
Seeing the familiar figure, Lu Yue was shocked and immediately chased after him, shouting as he ran, "Wait! I have important information about Guijian!"
As soon as he said this, the black shadow in the distance stopped.
Lu Yue was overjoyed when she saw this, and immediately rushed closer. The dazzling backlight disappeared, but she did not see a familiar face, but a mask.
Lu Yue's eyes were slightly red, "I came to see you alone, can't you show your true face?"
Xiang Shu hesitated and took off his mask. Before she could speak, Lu Yue came up and hugged her, crying with joy.
"It's really you!"
Lu Yue burst into tears and choked with sobs, "I haven't heard from you since Siji City. I always thought you..."
Xiang Shu smiled calmly, "It's hard for you to still remember me."
"How come you don't remember?"
Lu Yue wiped the tears on her face and her eyes were a little bright, "That move you just made was really powerful. Has the injury from outside been cured?"
Xiang Shu smiled and said in a soft tone: "Tianyan Sect has been established for a few years, so you are allowed to come to a place like this. Are you not afraid of damaging the disciples' vitality?"
The topic was changed so abruptly that Lu Yue immediately understood what was going on and her heart twitched.
In the silence, the footsteps of his companions quickly approached.
Xiang Shu immediately put on his mask.
When his companion came over and saw the two of them, he immediately bowed respectfully to Shu, "Thank you, senior, for saving your life!"
"Easy to do."
Xiang Shu replied, staring at Lu Yue with an indifferent tone: "You just said that you have information about the ghost stream. Let's talk about it."
Lu Yue tried her best to calm down her emotions and prevent her companions from seeing anything unusual, and said respectfully: "Reporting to senior, this time we are following the orders of the teachings and entering the ghost stream. Before leaving, the teachings warned that the black tide receded early and the ghost stream The terrain changes so much that the maps collected by various sects are of no use.
Not only that, there were predictions coming from the Thousand Stars Palace, saying that this time there would be many more dangers and variables in the ghost stream than ever before.
Also, if seniors want to hunt for treasures, they must find a place called gravel beach, which is washed by the black tide. After the black tide recedes, many ancient relics will be washed up.
This is what my colleagues and I discovered. "
Lu Yue took out half a mirror from her sleeve and held it out with both hands, "This mirror can guide the road, and it is also a bit evil. This is where those evil spirits come from."
Xiang Shen took the mirror, pursed his lips and said softly: "Thank you."
After saying that, she turned around and took a step forward, her figure disappeared in an instant, and she disappeared into the white light in the blink of an eye.
"Yueer, you are too honest."
When Xiang Shen walked away, his companion, who had been holding it in for a long time, finally couldn't help complaining: "How can we walk without a mirror?"
Lu Yue looked helpless: "You have also seen how powerful that mirror is. If we continue to hold it, we will only lose our lives. It is better to give it to seniors."
"What you said...makes some sense."
The companion thought for a while and stopped worrying about the matter, "Let's go out. I don't want to stay in this damn place for a moment. We have already explored a place, and leaving now does not violate the order of the teaching."
"Okay. Let's not talk about what happened when we met our senior today, so as not to be criticized by the teacher because of that mirror."
"I know, I won't tell you."
"..."
Two days later, Lu Yue walked out of the ghost stream and looked at the dark entrance. She breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fear, and her thoughts suddenly came to her mind.
Xiang Sheng's injury has not healed, but he still insists on coming to such a dangerous place. He is probably running around to heal his injuries. Although his contribution is insignificant, it can be considered a help, right?
Xiang Shen stepped out of the maze and sank into the soft sand.
She looked up and saw that everything she could see was gray. The sand and dust rolled up by the cold wind covered her vision and blocked all spiritual exploration.
Xiang Shen walked forward and observed.
In addition to dangerous places like the Hunsha Labyrinth, most areas of Guijian are actually deserts covered with wind and sand. Danger is everywhere and cannot be predicted in advance.
I probed out my spiritual consciousness and scanned the surroundings, only to find that there were towering cliffs in all directions, which made me despair.
Hallucination?
Her eyes flickered and she withdrew her spiritual consciousness. As the old demon king said, pure vision is more useful than spiritual consciousness here.
After pondering for a moment, Xiang Chu picked up the speed against the wind. The booklet given by the old village chief mentioned that the direction the wind blows is the end of the ghost stream.
The wind whimpered in his ears, as if blowing an ancient and desolate horn. During the journey, Xiang Shu could occasionally see phantoms wearing strange clothes passing by, and sometimes he could even see scenes of wars that took place tens of thousands of years ago.
Although it was a startling glimpse, Xiang Shu could truly feel the cruelty and desolation conveyed by the picture.
Was this a battlefield?
A question that she had never seen before appeared in Xiang Shen's mind. She had heard the legend about the ghost stream many times, but it was never mentioned in the legend... Where did the ghost stream come from?
As we went deeper into Xiang Sheng, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the color of the black sand on the ground became lighter, eventually turning into pure white.
The wind stopped and snowflakes fell from the sky, making the sky and the earth a silvery white. Xiang Shen looked like the only stain on the white paper, which looked particularly dazzling.
Two days.
Xiang Shuan silently counted the time in her heart. She only walked for two days and reached the end of the ghost stream?
impossible.
There is a record in the old demon king's booklet. So far, it has taken nearly five months to break into the deepest part of the ghost stream and come out alive. The round trip time has been halved, and there are still more than two months left.
No matter how severe the "huge changes in terrain" that Lu Yue mentioned were, it would never be able to shorten the two-month journey to two days.
This is not the end, but the wind has stopped.
Xiang Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowed down and moved forward. Gradually, the outline of a lifeless valley protruded from the silver-white sky and earth.
The height of the valley reaches straight to the sky, blocking all the wind and snow behind it.
Xiang Shu stopped in front of the valley, raised his head and watched silently.
There is no ice valley in the book about Demon King Valley, and the recorded ghost stream has never snowed.
This is the "variable" Lu Yue calls.
In an ordinary cave, variables often represent opportunities, but this is a ghost stream.
Thinking of this, Xiang Shu's eyes darkened, and just as he was about to take a detour, the statue of the demon god slipped out of his arms and fell to the ground. A pair of red eyes turned for a moment, locking onto Xiang Shu, and an evil voice came out. Suddenly came out: "Go in."
Xiang Shen was secretly frightened, but on the surface he remained calm. He took a step back without leaving a trace and said, "Master Demon God, everything in the valley is unknown. I cannot take this risk for no reason."
"Jiejiejie..."
The demon god smiled sadly: "Aren't you going to find the Yuan embryo? The Yuan embryo is deep in the gravel beach. Walking through this valley can save you most of your time."
Xiang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, "How does the Demon God know so clearly?"
"You don't believe in this god?"
The demon god's voice was cold, and the red light in his eyes was even brighter, "For the sake of you being a believer of this god, I will spare no effort to help you. Mortals, please don't be ignorant."
Xiang Yu's eyes narrowed and his voice slowed down, "Master Demon God, it's not that I don't believe you. I only have one life. If you don't make it clear, I don't dare to take risks."
"Cowardless rat!"
The statue of the demon god cursed, and seemed to understand that just based on these two sentences, Xiang Shuan would not enter the valley. Then his voice calmed down slightly and he explained: "Mortal, if you want to get the Yuan embryo, what you lack most is not the opportunity, but the opportunity. It's time.
This god can sense that great changes are taking place in the ghost stream. In less than sixty days, the black tide will come back.
If you take a detour, it will take at least a month to reach the gravel beach. In addition, searching for the Yuan embryo will take far more than sixty days!
And if you walk from the valley, I guarantee that you will reach the gravel beach in less than ten days. Mortal, can you understand? "
Xiang Shen was silent for a moment, then bent down to pick up the statue of the demon god and walked towards the valley.
When the statue of the demon god hidden in his arms saw this, a hint of success flashed in his eyes, and the red light quickly receded and returned to its original appearance.
As soon as he entered the valley, Xiang Shu felt that the temperature was more than ten degrees lower than outside. Not long after, a layer of snow-white frost appeared on his eyebrows.
There is a lake in the valley, which is an extremely cold ice blue color. It is so clear and transparent that even the frozen fish in the lake are clearly visible.
Not long after Xiang Shu walked on the ice, he suddenly paused slightly and locked his eyes on the ice in front of his feet.
Beneath the ice in front of him, he saw a pale face with wide-eyed eyes, as ferocious as a ghost, and his figure still maintained the gesture of clasping hands before death.
Xiang Shu pursed his lips and thought slightly. A sword pill emerged from the palm of his hand and turned into a small silver sword. It swirled deftly in the air, and then continued to fly around Xiang Shu, weaving a A sword net firmly protected it.
Summoning the flying sword to protect his body, he slowed down and continued walking forward, becoming more and more frightened.
More and more faces appeared from the bottom of the ice, and I don't know if it was Xiang Shu's illusion. These dead people seemed to be getting closer and closer to the surface of the ice.
After walking a hundred feet, Xiang Shu's feet were severely beaten and he froze on the spot.
Ahead, countless lifelike ice sculptures stand on the ice, facing Xiang Shen from a distance only separated by a thin layer of ice.
The wind and snow hit the ice sculptures, making scattered sounds, which seemed particularly strange in this dead valley.
Xiang Shu looked at the astonishing scene in front of him and felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to the sky.
That is indeed not an illusion.
"Hide quickly!"
A sudden reminder came from his arms, and Xiang Shu suddenly came back to his senses. When he raised his head, he saw an icy blue cold wave sweeping deep in the valley like a blanket covering the sky, and he was approaching in the blink of an eye.
In desperation, Xiang Shen didn't care much and ducked behind a large ice sculpture.
