The secret land of Wushan, by the Jingxin Lake.
Not far from the lake, there is an extremely hidden cave.
Shen Qinglan and Nan Qing leaned against the entrance of the cave to enjoy the pleasant scenery by the lake.
At this time, the two of them had packed up neatly, as if they were well prepared for a long trip.
Nan Qing felt a trace of reluctance, "Oh, the secret realm is only open for a month, and ten years later you and I have already established the foundation, and there will be no chance to come in again."
"Don't be sorry. There are endless scenery in this world. Tianyuan Continent is so big, and there are better places waiting for us."
"There are beautiful scenery, but those annoying people are also everywhere."
Snapped!
Just as Nan Qing finished these words, with this bang, a figure fell from the sky and fell heavily on the grass not far away!
coming!
The two people's hearts finally dropped, they gathered their breath and retreated into the cave to hide.
The previous statement that this was the Wushan Secret Realm was just their speculation. If not, it might be the ingredients raised by the big demon in captivity.
I'm scared just thinking about it, but luckily someone is here!
After the man landed, he quickly stood up and took a defensive posture. After seeing that there was no one else around, he immediately flew towards the southeast.
After confirming that the man was gone, the two came out of the cave. "Look at the jade plaque on his waist, he is a disciple of the Wanjian Sect."
Wan Jian Zongtian is one of the largest cultivation sects in the Eastern Region, and Taiyi Sect, another major sect, each has thirty places.
There are basically about a hundred people entering the secret realm every time, and Wanjian Sect and Taiyi Sect account for 60.
Second-rate sects such as Suxin Palace, Tongjianmen, Qibao Village, and Baishoumen accounted for twenty places.
The remaining twenty or so were divided among dozens of small sects, aristocratic families, and the like, and there was not even a quota for one family.
"I wonder if anyone from the Nan family will come this time?"
"Do you have a suitable candidate in your family?"
In order to give more opportunities to young disciples, each sect has disqualified disciples who are over fifty or have been here before.
After all, those from various schools and sects who are trapped in the Qi Refining Stage and unable to suddenly achieve Great Consummation are all writing.
"There are two clan brothers with average qualifications. They don't want to join the sect, so they stay at home to practice and manage affairs. If they haven't built a foundation yet, it should be one of the two."
"Then let's speed up, maybe we can meet your clan brother."
When Nan Qing heard this, a smile appeared on her face. Apart from her annoying father, she still had great affection for the Nan family.
"Okay, if anyone from the Nan family comes in, they will probably be with the brothers from Tongjian Sect."
The two of them had walked for less than half a stick of incense when they heard the sound of fighting coming from ahead.
"Let's go and have a look."
A man and a woman in front were besieging a man in gray, "Hand over the storage bag, keep your life and have a chance to turn over."
The man in gray clothes gritted his teeth and said nothing. His clothes were stained with blood and looked a little embarrassed.
"Don't even think about it!"
At this time, Nan Qing also saw the face of the man in gray clearly, and without saying a word, she rushed forward to help with her sword in hand.
Shen Qinglan couldn't figure out the situation, but it was always right to follow Nan Qing.
The originally two-on-one situation turned into two-on-three. The man and woman were surprised at first, seeing that they did not wear the jade plaques of the sect, thinking that they were children of a small sect somewhere.
"I also advise you two not to be enemies with Su Xin Gong."
Nan Qing sneered, "What is Suxin Palace? It's worth mentioning."
It turned out to be Su Xin Gong's. Shen Qinglan's originally relatively light moves suddenly became fierce. Within a few moves, the two of them could not resist, and Nan Qing snatched the storage bag and ran away.
Shen Qinglan was puzzled, "Why not just kill him?"
"There are only about a hundred people in total. If we kill them all, who will fight the Four Symbols Formation? This has been the case for many years."
Well, Shen Qinglan is a little more curious about the Liangyi Palace. How powerful it is, making these guys reluctant to kill people.
The man in gray clothes thanked the two good people, "Thank you two Taoists."
Nan Qing turned to him and asked, "Are you from the Zhou family?"
Zhou family?
Shen Qinglan observed carefully and found that the man did have the mark of the Zhou family on his body.
"Exactly, let's relax next week."
"The Zhou family is following Tongjianmen this time."
Zhou Shihuai hesitated for a moment, "Who are you two?"
"Tongjianmen Nanqing."
"Tongjianmen?"
Zhou Shihuai had a strange expression and looked around to see if there was a chance to escape. Before entering the secret realm, he was with the people from Tongjian Sect. He had never seen this Taoist Nan Qing before.
Shen Qinglan saw his hesitation, "We didn't get the quota in the competition."
I heard Nan Qing say before that some people will use other methods to exchange for other people's places. As long as they meet the conditions for entry, others will not care.
"Oh..." Zhou Shihuai believed a little in his heart. The quota bought with the spirit stone would always have such a person.
But I just saw how powerful these two people are. Is the competition in Tongjian Sect so intense this time?
Even someone so strong can’t get a spot?
However, this kind of thing of taking someone else's place is somewhat disdainful. It is understandable that it is not easy to reveal one's identity before coming in.
"Two fellow Taoists, naturally our Zhou family will be with Tongjianmen this time."
"Is there an appointment place to meet?"
"Southwest Kun position."
Shen Qinglan and the others nodded, and then their figures swayed past Zhou Shihuai's eyes.
So fast!
Zhou Shihuai immediately struggled to catch up.
To the southwest, Kun position, there lives a group of mountain mastiffs.
It is best to use earth escape attack, but it is not easy to deal with.
Fortunately, they have been studying these things in their spare time in the past few years. They have also tried them personally and have found a way to quickly deal with these mountain mastiffs.
"Senior Sister Li Ying!"
As soon as she arrived at the agreed upon location, Nan Qing saw a familiar face.
Li Ying was also shocked when he saw her. Even though Nan Qing had warned her through a secret message when she saw her, her surprised expression was still too obvious.
Seeing that the other teams around him had not yet finished gathering, Shen Qinglan immediately shouted, "Senior Sister Li, if you have anything to do, we can talk about it later. Let's go to Kun's position first."
As the leader of this team, Li Ying naturally has some real skills. He quickly got to the point, "I went to see some third-level mountain mastiffs before everyone arrived. It's not easy!"
"How many of us are there this time?"
"The sect has obtained five places. With the two of you, the Zhou family and Liuhetang, there are exactly ten people."
"Has anyone come to the Nan family this time?" This is a question that Nan Qing is very concerned about.
Unexpectedly, when talking about the Nan family, Li Ying looked a little awkward, "I'm here, but this time the Nan family joined the Suxin Palace team."
Nan Qing suddenly became excited, "What!"
The Nan family has always been attached to Tongjianmen!
Shen Qinglan held her back and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Time is running out."
Nan Qing came back to her senses and asked Li Ying to whisper a few words in secret. As Li Ying went from surprise to surprise, Shen Qinglan knew that things were about to happen.
Now that the two of them are included, there are a total of six people in the team. According to Shen Qinglan's plan, it should be possible.
"No wait, there will be nothing left when everyone arrives."
The two sects are also recruiting disciples, and then find their locations to discuss countermeasures. Shen Qinglan and the others have very limited time.
He led everyone to the area near the Mastiff Territory and found that there were other people hiding around. However, they did not dare to take action because there were few people. There were also monks acting alone in the dense forest nearby. They did not dare to expect anything from the Bagua location. Others The place has monsters and elixirs suitable for them.
The people from Tongjian Sect took out the magic talisman and various things prepared by Shen Qinglan and the others and rushed forward.
The characteristic of Mountain Mastiff is that it uses earth escape to surprise the monks on the ground.
Nan Qing took out the seeds she had spawned for everyone and sealed them slightly with magic. As long as they activated them with spiritual power, the seeds would quickly penetrate into the ground and entangle the prey underground.
They accidentally discovered this kind of seed in the valley. The rhizome was extremely powerful. Shen Qinglan was almost dragged into the ground by this thing.
Fortunately, they were afraid of fire. When the strange fire came out, these guys were so scared that they shrank away instantly.
After a period of research, the two finally found a method that could be used.
They had tried here before, and it was naturally impossible to trap the third-level mountain mastiff with just a few seeds, but only a moment's delay was enough for a group of people to join forces and kill the wolves.
The battle went smoothly, except that Zhou Shihuai suffered some injuries.
He was injured because he saw Shen Qinglan blowing the head of a mountain mastiff with a hammer. He was distracted for a moment before the monster took advantage of it.
Looking at the other disciples of Tongjian Sect, who joined forces to kill the monsters, they did not show the slightest surprise at Shen Qinglan's violent behavior.
As expected, he is a disciple of the great sect and is determined.
In fact, besides Nan Qing, several others were also surprised, but it was not as obvious as he showed.
Li Ying knew Shen Qinglan, and there were not many Shanlinggen disciples in the outer sect.
I thought that he was worthy of being a single fire spiritual root, and the disciples of single spiritual roots were really the darlings of heaven.
Fortunately, Li Ying herself wanted to become a disciple of Wuya Feng Xingyuan Master Liu Yongchang.
By then, Shen Qinglan and Shen Qinglan will be junior fellow apprentices in the same peak. There is only a little bit of envy, but not the slightest bit of jealousy.
Only after the body of the pangolin mastiff was collected did the others arrive.
A group of people from Wanjian Sect arrived first, and the leader knew Li Ying.
"Fellow Daoist Li, as expected of you, you have only entered the secret realm for half an hour, and you have actually taken the Kun position!"
Li Ying was a little embarrassed, but this was not the time to speak, "Luck, luck."
The man sighed, "Okay, we have to change places quickly. If the other teams are as fierce as yours, we may not even be able to drink the soup."
After the disciples of Wanjian Sect left, other people from Tongjian Sect arrived, "Senior Sister Li! You guys! You guys!"
Li Ying didn't have time to explain, "Why are you standing still? Why don't you get to work quickly!"
At this time, she was also very excited. In previous years, it was extremely difficult to win a place. After all, time was limited. After you tried a few times, Wanjianmen and Taiyimen had already been won because of the large number of people.
Shen Qinglan called her, "Senior Sister Li, the wall grass at the entrance of the cave has been picked. Let's change places now."
"Change place?"
Shen Qinglan looked around, then turned back and said to Nan Qing, "At this time, the teams from all over the place have almost gathered, and we can only try our luck. I think there will be no chance in the south."
"Well, I suggest going to the Northeast. That thing is a bit troublesome, and it will be difficult for others to get close to it for a while!"
"I think it will work."
Li Ying was confused, "Going to the northeast?"
The two nodded affirmatively, and Li Ying's heart skipped a beat, "I'll listen to you and go to the northeast. Let's go!"
Others were still immersed in the joy of the harvest, and were a little reluctant when Li Ying shouted, "There are spiritual plants behind the cave."
Shen Qinglan waved her hand, "Those can't be exchanged for a few spirit stones. There are good things in the northeast."
As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately rushed to follow. Faced with the temptation of the spirit stone, not many people, even the monks, could resist.
Sure enough, when we arrived in the northeast, there were already several waves of people waiting here.
People kept running toward them from the northeast, and the fear on their faces was very obvious.
It was far away and Nan Qing couldn't see it with her consciousness. She turned to look at Shen Qinglan, "What's wrong?"
Shen Qinglan rubbed her arms, "It's completely black."
"superior?"
"There are still people, please wait a moment."
Like everyone else, they found a secluded place to hide. From the northeast, monks would escape with injuries from time to time.
Someone in the team was curious, "Junior sister Nan, what kind of monster is there, so terrifying?"
"spider."
"Spiders? What's so scary about that?"
Nan Qing grinned and said, "Of course one or two is not scary, but if there are tens of thousands, the smallest one is bigger than my head, and the largest one is bigger than a liger, don't you think it's scary?"
…
The man shrunk his shoulders and said, "We might as well go hunting for other things. In addition to this Bagua location, I heard that there are several good places with a lot of elixirs."
To deal with tens of thousands of scary spiders, he felt it was better to save his life.
Shen Qinglan and Nan Qing looked at each other, wondering if there were any other elixirs in other places!
Haven't they been solving other problems besides the Bagua position in the past five years?
The two of them didn't do too much, and they couldn't let the monks who came in this time go away empty-handed, but there weren't really many of them!
Just like their conscience, there is some, but not much.
Only Li Ying in the first team knows something about the past few years. After all, she is the team leader and will have to hand over responsibilities when she returns to the sect.
Two disciples who had been missing for several years suddenly appeared in the secret realm of Wushan. Why did they come in under someone else's quota? Are the elders of the sect so easy to deceive?
One lie is easy to tell, but what about the next hundred lies that need to be fulfilled?
Sometimes confession is also a way of protecting yourself.
As for the other people in the team, they can definitely guess some. At that time, the two of them have made their way through the sect over the years, so there is nothing to worry about.
Finally, several teams were frightened back by the swarm of Darkness Ghost Spiders. Each team suffered casualties. After thinking about it, everyone began to wait for other teams to assemble.
When I saw the ten people from Tongjian Gate rushing in, I wondered how many would be left when they escaped back.
In order to avoid being chased by the Dark Ghost Spider, this place is far away from their nest, and the spiritual consciousness cannot detect the situation inside.
So after an hour, some people wondered if Tongjianmen was completely wiped out?
"You are too brave. Although the treasure is good, you must live to enjoy it."
"That's right, a team of ten people dares to rush in!"
"That's all, let's see if Taiyi Sect or Wanjian Sect will collect the bodies for them."
Someone sneered, "Where are the corpses? As long as they can find a bone, they are lucky."
Most of these gossips are from those who went in and suffered a defeat. If they can't do it themselves, they naturally feel that Tongjianmen can't do it either.
Then someone suddenly said, "They are back."
