With everything ready, Wei Shiqi bid farewell to his fellow students and embarked on an unknown journey. Along with him went to Guimenyuan, in addition to junior sister Qin Zhen, there was also a green wolf. This was the first time that Wei Shiqi introduced her to an old man from Lao Yaling. His name was "Qing" and he was a wolf, not a "big dog" as Qin Zhen thought.

In late autumn, the weather was cool, and the mountains were covered with yellow leaves flying like rain. Wei Shiqi was not in a hurry. He walked and stopped along the way, taking time to catch some game and put it in his Penglai bag for emergencies.

The Penglai bag contained the bodies of the beautiful python and the eye-catching white-fronted giant insect, and there was still some surplus. Wei Shiqi tried to collect living animals, but as soon as the pheasant and hare were put into the bag, their souls were completely lost, leaving only one body. A warm body, neither dead nor alive. He was a little regretful. He was still thinking about putting Qin Zhen and Qinglang into the Penglai bag to escape in the critical moment, but now he had to give up this idea.

To hold living creatures, a specially refined magic weapon is needed, and the Penglai bag cannot be used. Ruan Jing also said that this bag has no other use, it can only store flesh and blood, and it will not rot or spoil. A thought suddenly flashed through Wei Shiqi's mind, where did the souls of those pheasants and hares go? Did it disappear into thin air, or was it absorbed by the Penglai bag?

Thinking of this, he regretted that he didn't have a powerful enough soul at hand to conduct the experiment, so he shouldn't have killed the big, eye-catching white-fronted insect directly.

From Tiandu Peak to the east, he walked for more than three hundred miles among the lofty mountains and deep into the vast Kunlun. Wei Shiqi estimated that he was not far from the Ghost Gate Abyss, so he slowed down and took precautions.

On this day, they came to a mountain col that was half dry and half prosperous. The vegetation on the west half of the col was withered, giving it a bleak scene in late autumn. The east half had towering ancient trees, luxuriant branches and luxuriant leaves, and flowers that never withered. Eight sections of evergreen grass seem to separate two different seasons in one mountain.

Qin Zhen carefully stepped into the half-mountain with lush vegetation. It was like walking from late autumn into midsummer. The warm breath hit her face, and the smell of Lihuo was unusually strong. She couldn't help but open her eyes wide, clicked her tongue in wonder, and shouted: "Senior Brother , this is a good place to practice!”

Wei Shiqi agreed, walked along the intersection of dry and prosperous places, and found a worn-out stone tablet. He lay down on the ground and brushed away the mud and weeds on the surface. He saw three simple characters engraved on it - Yin Yang Ridge. .

Wei Shiqi stroked the stone tablet and squeezed it hard with his fingers. It was as hard as iron. He became curious and took out the iron rod and smashed it hard. The stone tablet did not move at all. He knew that this stone tablet must have a mystery, and he couldn't figure it out in a hurry. He didn't want to waste more time and miss the main business. He immediately called Qin Zhen and asked her to absorb the energy of Lihuo next to the stone tablet and practice on her own.

"Senior brother, do you still want to go forward?" Qin Zhen was a little worried. Yin Yang Ridge was not as good as Tiandu Peak, and she didn't know what dangers lurked. She didn't want to be separated from her senior brother.

"Stay here, don't think wildly, I'll have Qing Lang guarding the area." Wei Shiqi touched her head, suddenly remembered something, and accidentally added, "In case of any accident, escape to the other side of the stone monument." Go, remember?"

Qin Zhen nodded obediently, then frowned and muttered: "Senior brother, you always touch my head, just like a puppy." Wei Shiqi chuckled, rubbed her hair twice hard like a mischief, Kneaded into a mess.

Qin Zhen, with her messy hair on her head, watched her senior brother drift away and disappear into the vast dense forest, her heart filled with melancholy. She said to herself: "Qin Zhen, Qin Zhen, you have to practice hard. Only when you become strong enough can you follow him!"

The iron rod was too heavy and was tied to his back with a thick rope. If he encountered a monster and had no time to take it out to deal with the enemy, Wei Shiqi simply put the iron rod behind his neck, put his hands on both ends, walked a few steps, and thought of a certain lonely bird. The monkey, feeling unlucky, changed its posture again, picked up the iron rod with one hand and strode forward.

Following the foothills and climbing over a hilltop, two huge cliffs faced each other. There was a narrow gap in the middle. At the narrowest point, only one person could squeeze forward sideways. Looking up, there was only a line in the sky, which was rolled down from time to time. Covered by huge boulders, intermittently.

After passing through a line of sky, my eyes suddenly opened up. A stone beam about a foot wide spanned the cliff. It was covered with dwarf masson pines. The abyss under the cliff was filled with mist and was bottomless. There was a faint suction force. No birds or animals dared to do so. near.

This is the abyss of hell.

Wei Shiqi randomly picked a direction and walked along the abyss for several miles, but found no trace of any monster. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then returned to the stone beam and took a few steps. He felt that his feet were floating and each step slipped, which was extremely inconvenient. He turned his head and looked carefully, and saw that the stone beam had been polished by thousands of years of wind and rain, and was as smooth as a mirror. It has a jade-colored luster. He immediately returned, found a masson pine, peeled off the rough bark, twisted it into a rope and wrapped it tightly around the soles of his shoes. He tried it and found that the effect was pretty good.

Walking step by step to the center of the stone beam, a shrill roar suddenly sounded from the abyss, the thick fog cleared, and a huge strange bird flew out.
