Nanling is so vast that many monks cannot cross it in their entire lives.
However, it is not a prosperous place because there are too many mountains and natural barriers separate one area after another.
There is a mountain stream somewhere in the Nanling Mountains, with a small stream flowing underneath. On both sides are moss-covered cliffs, cutting the sky into a thin line.
At this time, a narcissistic and unpleasant singing voice kept coming from the mountain stream.
"I'm heading north~leaving the season with you~"
"Okay, Uncle Master, stop singing!" Qin Yun in front held the Xuanhuo horse and said dissatisfiedly.
"What do you know? This is called art! Lao Sha, was my singing okay just now?" Xu Yue turned around and asked.
Behind him, Sha Chenfeng was carrying a pole, with an embarrassed smile on his face and said nothing.
Xu Yue made a sound and lectured: "You guys just don't understand the ways of the world. If Liu Ang were here just now, he would have praised me for singing well."
Qin and Yun finished the topic with a few perfunctory words.
Several people have been gone for a few days, but they are still within the influence of the Spirit Sword Sect.
The Lingjian Sect's territory is in the form of a strip, adjoining the Tian Jue Sect to the east, and to the north is a vast wilderness.
"Bring me the map."
Xu Yue reached out and asked for it, and Qin Yun quickly handed over the map.
"Well, after climbing over this mountain, we will reach the boundary of Lingjian Sect. Further ahead is Yunpu Gorge." Xu Yue said to himself.
Hearing this, Qin Yun looked excited and happily communicated with Xu Yue what he had heard along the way.
Sha Chenfeng on the side opened his mouth, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
"Lao Sha, what do you want to say?" Xu Yue noticed his expression and asked with a smile.
"Uncle Master, my village seems to be near here. Can I have a look?" Sha Chenfeng asked.
"How difficult is this?"
Xu Yue chuckled lightly, moved his butt forward, and signaled Sha Shenfeng to mount his horse.
Sha Chenfeng was extremely grateful. He picked up a pole and mounted the Xuanhuo horse. The two of them jumped into the air, while Qin Yun followed with his own sword.
The three of them came to the air. The terrain here was much flatter, and they could see the horizon at a glance.
In the distance to the west, there is a small village located in the mountains and forests, looming.
The only thing that was clear was the wisps of smoke that floated high into the sky and merged with the clouds.
Sha Chenfeng looked there with a kind face and fell into memories.
"Why, don't you go and take a look?" Xu Yue asked.
Sha Chenfeng came back to his senses and waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, how could I mess up my uncle's plan for personal matters?"
Hearing this, Xu Yue didn't say anything. The three of them slowly returned to the ground and continued to move forward.
Not long after, a figure in the distance got closer and closer, and Liu Ang came back.
"Uncle Master, the front has been checked and there is nothing unusual." Liu Ang bowed.
"good."
Xu Yue nodded and waved his hand, and the Xuanhuo horse started to run at full speed. Liu Ang and Qin Yun on the side were holding swords on the left and right. Sha Chenfeng also took steps to chase after him. The speed of the four people instantly accelerated a lot. .
Nearly ten days later, a canyon stretching to the sky lay in front of them, and the four people's movements slowed down again.
This is Yunpu Gorge, a natural cliff.
Because the terrain on both sides is too high, clouds and mist pour down through the mountain walls and deposit at the bottom of the valley like a waterfall, hence the name.
The four of them began to step into the canyon, but not long after walking, they felt a biting chill coming over them.
The Xuanhuoma that Xu Yue sat down was extremely uncomfortable and began to tremble slightly.
And Sha Chenfeng, who had a low cultivation level, couldn't bear it any longer, and his pace slowly slowed down.
Seeing this, Liu Ang immediately made a gesture, and a small fire dragon emerged from his body and surrounded himself, warming everyone's body from the cold.
After walking for another half an hour, the sun gradually hit the front, indicating that the canyon was about to end.
"When you get there, be careful to hide your cultivation and don't make any noise." Xu Yue said lazily.
"Why, uncle?" Qin Yun was puzzled.
Liu Ang didn't ask, Xu Yue had already told him something a few nights ago.
The sound of steaming water gradually came from all around, the clouds and fog became thinner, and the temperature began to slowly rise.
Finally, the sun pierced the last fog and shone on the four people.
"Wow!"
The moment he saw the scenery ahead, Qin Yun's eyes widened, full of joy and surprise.
In the hinterland between the several large mountains ahead, there is a plain that is extremely rare in Nanling, stretching as far as the eye can see and vast.
On the plain, grass grows, warblers fly, flowers are red and leaves are green, and small animals are constantly scurrying back and forth, playing with butterflies.
On the other side of the grassland, a mountain city is located there, and vaguely visible figures can be seen flickering.
There is a sea of clouds floating over the mountain city, which is the air-conditioning sinking from the surrounding mountains.
In the sea of clouds, fish-like white birds appear and appear, light and misty, and beautiful.
"There is such a beautiful place outside the sect!"
Qin Yun couldn't help but feel happy, and ran towards the grassland with a smile.
Xu Yue looked helpless and winked at Liu Ang.
"As ordered, Junior Sister Qin, wait!" Liu Ang nodded, then chased after him with a wry smile.
"Let's go too."
Xu Yue chuckled lightly and slowly fell behind with Sha Chenfeng, watching Qin Yun playing in front.
The girl grew up in the mountains near Lingjian Sect and had never seen such a wide grassland.
"Master-uncle! How is it?"
After a while, Qin Yun picked a wild flower from nowhere, put it on his head, and asked Xu Yue with a smile.
"Well, it's ugly enough." Xu Yue laughed without giving her any face.
Qin Yun snorted, didn't care, and continued to look for those unheard of flowers and grass.
On the side, Liu Ang came to Xu Yue and asked: "Uncle Master, is this city in front of you Linshan City?"
"Why, have you been here?" Xu Yue turned around and said.
Liu Ang smiled and said: "No, I just heard from Tianjue Sect before that Linshan City is an important town in our area and has a precious teleportation array."
Xu Yue nodded, took out the map and pondered: "Yes, according to what the sect leader said, we are going to Cangyun Mountain through Linshan City, and then to Yidi Mountain through the large teleportation array there."
Although Linshan City is large, it is only for this area. Yidi Mountain doesn't even bother to ask for direct management rights.
But Cangyun City is different. It is a real important town under the rule of Yidi Mountain. Not only is there a branch rudder located there, but there is also a teleportation array on the mountain that leads directly to Yidi Mountain.
Xu Yue thought about it, looked at Linshan City marked on the map, and asked: "The sect that controls Linshan City is called Yunhai Sect. Have you ever understood it?"
Liu Ang bowed and said: "I know a little bit! Yunhai Sect is slightly larger than Lingjian Sect and Tianjue Sect. The sect leader's surname is Murong. His cultivation level is unknown. He is acquainted with Duan Xun, the former leader of Tianjue Sect."
"What's the surname of the clan leader?" Xu Yue asked in surprise.
"The surname is Murong, what's wrong?" Liu Ang was a little confused.
"Murong Yunhai? He's so damn amazing." Xu Yue raised his eyebrows and hurried forward.
He wanted to see what this Murong Sect Master looked like.
"Yun'er, stop playing around and catch up."
Xu Yue called Qin Yun back, gathered the three of them together, and said seriously: "Listen carefully, after leaving Lingjian Sect, we can no longer be as casual as before. From now on, without my instructions, we will all declare to the outside world that we are merchants." Loose cultivators, do you understand?"
"Why, Uncle Master, our Lingjian Sect didn't provoke anyone!" Qin Yun said dissatisfied.
"You haven't provoked anyone. I have many enemies, right?"
Xu Yue glared at her angrily, then looked up at the sky.
After all, there is a sect nearby, called Mutian Sect.
