Tianquan Mountain, Yishen Valley.
The steep mountains on both sides extend upward to form a cracked mountain road. The farther you go in, the narrower the mountain road becomes.
At the same time, the terrain of the mountain road goes up all the way, and the temperature gets lower and lower as we go forward.
When we reached the halfway point of the mountain, the temperature was so low that the water vapor turned into ice and snowflakes were falling.
The mountain road goes all the way in, all the way up, and finally connects to the top of the mountain.
At this time, everything was white, and the wind and snow were drifting around. When the strong wind blew, it brought out a whistling sound.
At the end of the road, reaching the top of the mountain, is a huge black palace.
There are ice sculptures more than ten meters high around the palace.
These ice sculptures are arranged around the palace. They are half human and half animal, and their shapes are extremely weird.
If you look closely, it looks a bit like the humanized form of Qianyu Realm.
The palace door is open, and the thick black pillars in the hall can be vaguely seen.
At this time, the thick clouds in the sky just dispersed, and the golden sun appeared, casting a brilliant golden glow.
The light fell just on the ice sculptures, on the black palace, and on the center of its inner hall.
Li Shenxiu stood not far away, observing the surroundings with his mind and frowning slightly.
The peak at his feet is the legendary Tianquan Mountain. It is named after it is said that there is a Tianquan in the mountain, and ordinary people can be reborn after drinking it.
The Strange God Valley is not a valley, but refers to the valley above Tianquan Mountain.
But when he came here with the Red Dank God Hou Zhou Chengming and his entourage, they still couldn't see anyone.
Thinking of this, he looked at the people beside him.
At this time, Zhou Chengming also frowned.
He put his hands behind his back, golden light flashed in his eyes, and the dragon on the golden robe showed its teeth and claws, lifelike.
"...Lengxue, are you sure that according to the previous investigation, the general of the Alienation Alliance is here?"
Zhou Chengming turned his head and looked at the person beside him.
This man has white hair, but his skin is very tight, his eyes are sharp, and his face is angular. He is wearing a red robe, with the word "capture" written in capital letters on the back of the robe.
There are fine iron gauntlets on both hands, and the knuckles are inlaid with ten-color gems, which is very dazzling.
"Reporting to the Lord God, Lengxue personally came here to investigate and confirmed that the investigation is correct." Lengxue moved his fingers slightly, with a cold expression.
"It's just that I don't know why this situation occurs now."
He paused, "Is it possible that he got the news and evacuated in advance?"
"Get the news?" Zhou Chengming took a step forward, and the golden light in his eyes suddenly flashed.
"There are no more than ten people who know that we are here. After we set off, we walked through the mountains and became isolated from the world. Why do you think he could get the news?"
He smiled as he spoke and pointed to the black palace in front of him, "And even if he knew it, why would he run away? Even leaving such a huge foundation behind?"
"There may be clues in the palace, Lengxue is willing to go and check it out." Lengxue bowed slightly and said softly.
"No need, let's go together." Zhou Chengming shook his head and looked at Li Shenxiu and others beside him.
"Master together?"
Li Shenxiu looked at the black palace in front of him and did not notice any threat.
"It's what you wish for."
Tap tap tap.
A group of people walked into the black palace.
"This is the Ability God Palace. The king used to live here." Lengxue whispered.
There was an inexplicable chill in the palace.
There was no debris in it, just thick black pillars.
The pillar stone is made of dark crystal, and mountain beasts are sealed in it.
Randomly counting, there are sixty-six pillars in total. The mountain beasts sealed in them include scales and birds.
Almost all kinds of common mountain beasts are included.
For some reason, any one of them was completely white, with a painful look on its face, and was curled up among the pillars.
"This is the Alien God Pillar, the place where the Alienation Alliance builds its foundation. It is rumored that if you build a foundation here, your success rate will increase by 30%." Lengxue continued.
Zhou Chengming nodded without saying anything, and walked deep into the palace with Li Shenxiu.
The four great gods were his direct disciples, and they all received his teachings. Among them, Qingqing was born with broken legs, but he was unparalleled in resourcefulness and was the best at planning.
Iron Hand is the most talented person. He achieved the Four Tribulations of the True Lord at a young age. He is at the peak of the Great True Lord and has the qualifications of a great saint.
Chasing one's soul and killing one's life is undoubtedly the best among the gods.
The cold-blooded ones possess the ability of intelligence investigation and are best at searching for information.
All kinds of information in the God's Catcher Sect have been obtained by him.
Soon, a group of people came to the center of the Black Hall and began to look around.
Zhou Chengming and Li Shenxiu continued to walk deeper.
But still found nothing.
In the black hall, there is nothing except the transparent black pillar and the sealing mountain beast in it.
It gives people a feeling that the building is empty.
Zhou Chengming and Li Shenxiu looked at each other, both speechless.
If there are no clues here, it means that they are on the right track to a certain extent, but it also means that their efforts during this period will be in vain.
"Marquis Shen, I've discovered something here."
Just then, a calm voice came from afar.
Comes from cold blood.
Lengxue held a emerald jade plate in his hand, with a faint green light flashing on it, and stood in the center of the black hall,
The face that had always been indifferent showed a rare stiff smile.
"I used the Sapphire Case to gather enough energy from these sixty-six black pillars, which should be able to point us in the direction."
Zhou Chengming was overjoyed. He glanced at Li Shenxiu, Jue'an and the others and exhaled lightly.
"Cold-blooded! You have made great achievements this time! You are worthy of being one of my most proud disciples!"
Usually when there are outsiders present, in order to avoid suspicion, he and the former always match their duties according to their duties. This time, it is considered a breach of the precept, which shows that he is happy in his heart.
"It all depends on the wise teachings of the Lord God." Lengxue's whole body was bathed in the sunshine, and the emerald jade plate in his hand shone brighter and brighter.
"There is still some aura here. After Leng Xue collects it, go forward and report to the Lord God."
"Nothing, I'll come and take a look to see how many auras there are in this collection of sapphire cases!" Zhou Chengming said solemnly.
Then he, Li Shenxiu and others walked up to Lengxue.
The latter touched it with his hand and handed it over respectfully with both hands.
After taking the emerald jade plate, Zhou Chenghuang took a casual look and felt relieved.
There are dozens of auras on it, and the auras are extremely fresh. If Zhui Ming holds on to them, he can find traces even within thousands of miles.
"After today, Lengxueqian still needs to interpret the aura and mark the target persons one by one." He said solemnly.
"No need for today, the target persons can be identified one by one now."
"Huh? So fast? Is it possible that you have another breakthrough in your ability to see the heaven and the earth and listen to the Dharma?" Zhou Chengming was a little surprised and asked with a smile.
"That's not true, it's just that the calibration this time is very simple and the target person is nearby."
Lengxue laughed again, and the gems inlaid on the gloves shone with strange light.
Zhou Chengming was about to nod, but was stunned, frowned, and looked at Lengxue.
And just then.
呲呲呲.
Waves of strange noises appeared from all directions.
In the black hall, among the sixty-six stone pillars, the shapes of those pale mountain beasts began to change at some point.
Their abdomens all swelled up like an inflated balloon.
Zhou Chengming's expression turned serious, but Li Shenxiu raised his hand and clapped it forward.
when!
The light beam hanging from above is like a real thing. When the two come into contact, they make a sound of gold and iron.
Li Shenxiu frowned, slowly opened his eyes, put his five fingers together again, making a beak shape, and stabbed forward again.
Dang Dang Dang! ! !
A loud bell-like sound exploded, and the light curtain rippled and vibrated continuously.
Lengxue's face was calm, and there was no emotion on his face as he watched this scene.
The belly of the mountain beast surrounded by black pillars is getting bigger and bigger, as if it was pregnant in ten months.
"It's useless, the sixty-six divine light arrays. The light is endless and the array is unbreakable. This is the power of heaven and earth." Lengxue sighed softly, and Shi Shiran clasped his hands in front of him.
"Cold-blooded... do you know what you are doing?" Zhou Chengming's body trembled slightly, his hands hanging in his sleeves had veins popping out, and his eyes were filled with golden light, filled with murderous intent.
"Master, of course I know what I am doing, but you don't know what you are doing.
When we first came here, we just wanted to check out the 'Land and Sea Festival'. Originally, when this matter was over, we should have returned to Beijing, but out of ruthlessness, you kept staying.
To the extent that you are now on the opposite side of adults, you asked for it. "
Lengxue sighed softly, his white hair dancing in the wind, his whole body bathed in the sunshine, and his hands open.
"Master, you are already old, just like this great Zhou, you are getting old and the sun is declining, so leave the rest to us."
"Sir? Opposite? You took refuge in Chen Tianxi?! I don't know what kind of ecstasy he gave you, but today my surname is Zhou, and my surname is also Zhou!
Do you think following him can defy heaven? ! "
Zhou Chengming's voice became louder and louder, until finally it was as bright as thunder, and the four-clawed golden dragon on the golden robe was about to jump down.
Lengxue smiled, said nothing, and slowly disappeared.
Puff puff! !
At this time, a series of bursting sounds of bubbles sounded.
In the black hall, inside the black pillars, the bloated abdomens of those mountain beasts suddenly burst, and pale arms flew out from them, directly penetrating the pillars, getting bigger and bigger,
In just an instant, the entire black hall was occupied, and they all grabbed the light pillar in the center of the black hall, constantly approaching Zhou Chengming, Li Shenxiu and others.
Only half a breath of time.
Each pale palm was tightly covered in the light pillar, overlapping and covering it until the last ray of light was covered.

Wanyicheng, Yixiangcheng.
In the prosperous Yixiang City, in a quiet courtyard.
In the secluded pool under the rockery, colorful dragon fish swim around, spit out bubbles, jump out of the water from time to time, and then fall, causing large splashes of water.
Xiang Qisheng, the Marquis of Shu, was sitting by the edge of the secluded pool. He was dressed in plain clothes and holding a rod in his hand. The fishhook under the rod was straight and without bait.
Sitting next to him was a muscular man, wearing a purple-green official uniform with a red silk scarf hanging on his shoulders, and his face was calm.
The whole person gives people an impression of being as stable as Mount Tai.
But his calm eyes could not hide his worry.
This person was none other than Zhou Xiaojue, who was appointed by the emperor to be the governor of Yi, Shu and Yan states.
"Master Hou must have gotten the news." Zhou Xiaojue spoke slowly and in a very low voice.
However, Xiang Qisheng didn't respond, as if he didn't hear him. The old god was still there, sitting with his pole in hand.
After tea time.
The bamboo pole moved slightly, and his palm lifted up.
The transparent fishing line drew an arc in the air, and a palm-sized red dragon fish hung from the straight hook.
Xiang Qisheng stretched out his hand and grabbed the fish: "Brother Xiaojue is talking about the destruction of the Tianlang Army in Zhou Shengyin's army, or the fall of the God-catching Gatekeeper Marquis?"
"After investigation, it was found that the former was a demon from the Thousand Feathers Realm, and the person from the Lingtai Sect appeared among them, while the latter disappeared mysteriously, and there were also traces of the Thousand Feathers Realm, such as..."
"It's not just Qianyu Realm."
Zhou Xiaojue was interrupted before he finished speaking.
Xiang Qisheng threw the red fish in his hand into the lake.
"As far as I know, the actual story of Wuthering Heights is that the Buddha Head of the Lingtai Sect began to fight against the demons of the Thousand Feathers Realm in the Golden Eagle Mountain Range, and then, for unknown reasons, he clashed with the Sirius Army.
The disappearance of the Red Dan Shenhou is suspected to be related to his disciple, Cold-blooded, one of the four great god catchers of the god catcher sect.
Just yesterday, someone saw him in Yiping, Yiping Prefecture Mufu. "
Xiang Qisheng said slowly.
"Brother Xiaojue, do you still think you can balance everything?"
Zhou Xiaojue remained silent, just looking at the small pool in front of him.
In the pond, those dragon-bearded fish seemed not to be afraid of strangers, gathering at his feet and swimming in circles.
No wonder even a straight hook can catch it.
After a moment of silence, he sighed softly: "What do you mean by the Marquis... to report back to the Holy One?"
"Brother Tianxi is the shepherd of a state, and his status is extraordinary. No matter how much suspicion there is, as long as there is no substantial evidence, it is of no consequence. Except for that one." Xiang Qisheng said with a smile.
"..." Zhou Xiaojue was speechless again.
"Hundreds of years ago, Xiang Yi's surname was Zhou, brother Xiaojue. Today's big events are not something we can easily plan."
"good."

Thousands of miles away.
Yinhe Shrine.
Lin Mo was sitting on the high platform, half of the Niujiao Cave Heaven Key in his hand had just been stuffed into his mouth.
But there was no next step.
He looked at the hand holding the horn, his face uncertain.
His ring finger was emitting a faint red light.
Like a warning light from a previous life, it kept lighting up, flashing, and hissing.
This is Gun Ring.
The red light lights up, indicating that within the Chi Gun organization, Tian Chi An has a regular meeting.
However, he has not attended it for some time.
This is not unique. There are many people like him who are delayed by things around them and cannot participate.
Like the previous meetings he attended, none of the organization members came.
Only this time, something is not simple.
The red light of Gun Ring actually passed through the sealing spirit he had set before.
It's an emergency?
Lin Mo was thoughtful.
He had communicated with You Shui before when he was on a mission and knew the level of regular meetings within Chi Gun.
I know that some regular meetings may be held forcibly due to emergencies.
"interesting."
Lin Mo's slightly frowned brows relaxed, and he felt a little more interested.
He casually stuffed a handful of Niujiaodong Tiankey Longmenzhong into his mouth.
Click.
The horns cracked.
Roar!
Suddenly a violent beast roar appeared, followed by a strange rhythm.
However, as Lin Mo chewed the food, the beast's roar soon turned into a howl.
Lin Mo quickly swallowed the horn in one gulp, closed his eyes, and entered the gray space.
After ten breaths, open your eyes.
Looking at the fortune point that jumped five points, there was a look of satisfaction on his face.
Then the divine will was concentrated on the Gun ring in his hand.
call!
Everything in front of him quickly turned red.
