And this wait lasted for more than half a year.
On this day, two old men finally came to a place not far from Tongyou Gorge.
A closer look revealed that one of them turned out to be Han Jing, the sixth elder of the Wuchen Taoist Palace. However, after so many years, Han Jing still maintained his initial bottleneck cultivation and still had not broken through to the middle stage of integration.
The other person was a short, fat old man with a white beard, whose cultivation level was similar to that of Han Jing. As for his identity, he is actually the seventh elder of Mingxin Sword Palace, named Bao Huibing.
The two of them noticed the deep canyon in front of them from a distance. After looking at it for a while, both of them showed expressions of surprise and uncertainty.
Han Jing said unexpectedly: "This is the first time I have encountered such a strange place along the way. Even the power of the soul cannot penetrate it."
Bao Huibing nodded: "It looks like there is a natural formation here. I don't know what the situation is inside. Fellow Daoist Han, how about we go over and take a look?"
"I think so too."
Han Jing smiled softly, said hello and flew towards the entrance of the canyon.
The two landed at the entrance of the canyon, looked up at the towering cliff in front of them, and then looked inside. After a while, the two didn't seem to find anything. After a few words of discussion, they flew into the canyon.
The two of them walked slowly westward along the canyon. About an hour or two later, Bao Huibing suddenly changed his expression, revealing a look of surprise and uncertainty.
This scene happened to be caught by Han Jing from the corner of his eye, and he couldn't help but ask: "Have you discovered anything, fellow Daoist Blister?"
"ah?"
Bao Huibing pretended to be dumbfounded, shook his head and said: "No, I just feel that this canyon is too long, and there is something wrong with it."
Hearing what Bu Huibing said, Han Jing did not become suspicious, and then he paused for a moment before slowly flying inside again.
Before we go very far, there is another narrow fork in front of us.
Bao Huibing's expression changed when he saw this: "Fellow Daoist Han, this branch looks longer than the previous branch. Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Han Jing glanced along the branch road and saw nothing except the mist at the end. He couldn't help but said with a lack of interest: "Forget it, this branch road doesn't look long. Don't waste this time. Let's go ahead." Just follow the main road.”
Hearing this, Bao Huibing pretended to sigh: "Hey! I haven't seen anything along the way. I think it's better to be in vain than to indulge. Since fellow Taoist Han is not interested, you should go first. I'll go in and take a look."
"As you wish."
Han Jing wished that Bao Huibing was behind him, so he walked along the main road after saying that.
When Bao Huibing saw this, he couldn't help but curl his lips, and then flew towards the fork in the road.
Han Jing couldn't sense it, but as a person with golden spiritual roots, he could sense it. There was clearly a breath of metallic Dao Yun in it. Although it was relatively weak, it was definitely not the ordinary Dao Yun contained in the spiritual energy.
Based on his experience, he was confident enough that there must be some kind of metallic Taoist aggregate hidden in this fork in the road.
Soon, Bao Huibing went four or five miles deep into the passage, and the fog in front of him seemed to be getting thicker, which made Bao Huibing feel that something was wrong.
He stopped and stared at the fog to observe, and found that in addition to greatly weakening the soul's induction, the fog could also block his eyesight. He couldn't help but frown, and became a little hesitant.
After a moment, he seemed to have made some kind of determination. Golden light surged all over his body, and he formed a Yuan Gang to wrap himself up. Then he suddenly accelerated and rushed into the mist.
"Haha! It turns out to be an ancient meteorite!"
Not long after flying into the fog, Bao Huibing saw an ancient gray stone the size of a washbasin lying at the foot of the rock wall in front of him, and the metallic Tao Yun Qi emanated from it.
Immediately, with a face full of joy, he moved towards the ancient meteorite from the air, preparing to catch it.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the surrounding fog suddenly heard a roar and began to roll violently. In the blink of an eye, the originally vast white fog turned into pitch black.
Bao Huibing was caught off guard and took a big sip. He suddenly felt dizzy and turned pale with fright. Without thinking, he squirmed and wanted to escape from this place.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden explosion above his head, and a silver-white stream of light suddenly cut through the space and hit him hard on the head.
Bao Huibing had no choice but to protect Yuan Gang desperately in order to block the blow.
However, he was destined to be disappointed. He only heard a muffled bang, and with the billowing energy sweeping wildly around him, his Yuan Gang exploded into pieces without even being able to hold it back.
A giant mace slammed down on his head.
But fortunately, after Yuan Gang's slight block, Bu Huibing found a chance and narrowly escaped from the mace. The huge mace was almost pressed against him. His back hit the ground!
There was a boom.
The powerful residual power hit Bao Huibing's back, causing him to fly forward.
Bao Huibing's heart was beating wildly as he survived the disaster. He didn't dare to pause at all. Taking advantage of the opportunity to swoop in, he suddenly accelerated and was about to escape forward.
"Jiejie...die!"
At this moment, the black air in front suddenly squirmed, and a sharp knife tip flashed with a faint cold light, protruding from the black air.
In a panic, Bao Huibing had no time to react and hit the tip of the knife straight away.
Poof!
The crisp sound of meat entering immediately sounded.
Bao Huibing looked at the black blade on his chest and the dark-skinned sword demon elder behind the blade in horror, his heart filled with reluctance. And his body was quickly shriveling up.
Countless bloodshot threads poured into Elder Sword's body along the blade, making Elder Sword's face full of joy: "Hey, hey, strong human race, feel comfortable..."
"Dao Bi! You've gone too far. Didn't we agree to share it equally, but you actually have it all to yourself?"
Seeing that Bao Huibing's body turned into a mummy in the blink of an eye, and even his soul was swallowed by Elder Dao, Elder Man who followed was immediately furious.
"Hey, I'm sorry, I couldn't control it."
Dao Bi licked his lips, looking unfinished.
"You! Okay, in that case. Let's each play our own way, and I won't accompany you!" Elder Man said with an angry look on his face and was about to walk out.
"Hey! Don't, don't, don't be angry. Brother Man, don't be angry. I already told you that you didn't mean it. At worst, I'll let you swallow them all next time. With the ancient meteorite here, are you afraid that no fish will come... ." Seeing this, Dao Bi quickly stopped Elder Man and said with a playful smile.
"Seriously?" Elder Man stopped immediately.
"Really! I can swear to Master Zumo that if I don't give it to you next time, I, Dao Bi, will no longer be a human being!"
"Are you a human when you step on a horse?"
"Well, it's not a demon, it's not the Demon Headquarters."
Boom! ! !
Just as the two demons were bickering, a shocking loud noise suddenly came from the other direction of Tongyou Gorge. Dao Bi and Elder Man couldn't help but change their expressions, and then disappeared from the place...
