Chapter 1116 Praying Valley
The news that Liang Yan had problems with his cultivation spread quickly. Li Xiran, Ji Lai and others were a little worried when they found out. These people came to him many times I visited the cave, but they were all turned away, and I didn't even see him once.
Shortly thereafter, Ning Xia and Lin Yueque also sent people to visit, but the result was the same as what Li Xiran and others encountered. The door to the cave was never opened, and these people had no choice but to go back and report.
Since he went into seclusion, the disputes in Wushuang Realm have become more and more intense, and the actions in Bihai Palace have become more and more frequent. However, no matter how things develop, Liang Yan has always stayed behind closed doors, as if it has nothing to do with him. .
As the Lord of the First Palace, Lin Yueque was a little dissatisfied with him, but because of Ning Xia's face, he couldn't be too harsh on him, so in the end he could only let it go.
Spring passed and autumn came, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the sky was clear and clear. Outside a valley not far away from Wushuang City, a piece of colorful cloud fell from the sky.
Two men stood on the colorful clouds. One of them was slender, with a wide mouth, a high nose, and a felt hat on his head. He looked like an old master in the secular world, which looked very funny.
The other man is very handsome, holding a folding fan and fluttering in white clothes, looking very elegant.
The two men drove the same colorful cloud at extremely fast speeds. In just a blink of an eye, they had already arrived at the entrance of the valley.
"Yun Guzi, Danxiasheng, you two are here too late!"
A rough voice sounded from the mouth of the valley. The speaker was a strong man nine feet tall and with broad shoulders.
There were seven or eight monks beside him, sitting or standing at this time. Judging from their faces, they were already a little impatient with the waiting.
"Sorry! Sorry! The two of us brothers and sisters were temporarily delayed on the way, making all fellow Taoists wait for a long time."
The monk wearing a felt hat was full of apologies, and clasped his fists Apologizing, he jumped down from the colorful clouds.
However, the handsome man behind him had a cold expression and cast a spell to himself. The colorful cloud under his feet immediately turned into a ring and was received on his wrist.
“Hmph!”
Regarding the two completely different attitudes, the rugged man just snorted coldly and did not pursue it further.
Actually, he knows that these two people have extremely high cultivation levels and have reached the peak of the Juyuan Realm. They are only one step away from achieving the Golden Elixir. If there is any conflict, he may not be their opponent. .
"Forget it, you two are not too late. The nine-tailed golden retriever was slapped by Fellow Daoist Feng and could not recover within half a year. Now it is hiding in the valley. Let's Let's go in and kill this beast together, and then divide its spirit tail equally." At the entrance of the valley, a woman in red started to smooth things over.
These people are all casual cultivators nearby. The leader is a rugged man named Tie Muyang. His cultivation is at the peak of Juyuan Realm, and he is only one step away from forming a golden elixir.
Not long ago, he discovered an injured nine-tailed golden retriever nearby. This spiritual beast is full of treasures, especially its nine tails, which are excellent materials for refining magic weapons. Therefore, he became greedy and invited Several casual cultivator friends came to help, hoping to capture this spiritual beast in one fell swoop.
Although the nine-tailed golden retriever was injured, it still had the strength of the early stage of the golden elixir. After several battles, instead of being captured, he injured one of the monks and finally escaped into the building in front of him. The valley of Qiling Mountain.
Tie Muyang and others knew that this spiritual beast was good at escaping, so they were not in a hurry to catch up. Instead, they guarded the entrance of the valley and sent people to invite the disciples of Qixia Palace to help.
The two people who came just now on clouds, the one wearing a felt hat is called Yun Guzi, and the handsome one is named Danxiasheng. They are both disciples of Qixia Palace.
On Danxiasheng's wrist, the ring transformed from colorful clouds is a magic weapon that can defeat the Nine-tailed Golden Retriever Escape Technique.
Both of them are monks with orthodox inheritance. Although their realms are similar, they still look down on casual cultivators like Temuyang from the bottom of their hearts. However, Yun Guzi is a well-rounded person and does not show it directly. Compared with Then Danxiasheng didn't look good anymore.
The female cultivator in red is a good friend of Tie Muyang. She stepped forward to smooth things over. Tie Muyang was naturally happy to borrow the Poxia donkey. He nodded slightly and said, "Two fellow Taoists, it's not right. I, Tie Muyang, am not strict, but I am worried that if I delay for too long, the beast will get away, and then won’t everyone’s work be in vain?”
After hearing this, Yun Guzi laughed and said: “Tie Dao? What my friend said is true, we Don't delay, let's go in and kill this nine-tailed golden-haired cat!"
As soon as he said this, no one had any objection. Only Dan Xiasheng frowned and said: " If I remember correctly, today should be the day when the Nine Great Sects and Wushuang City are discussing Taoism in Cangnan Mountain. Qiling Mountain is not far from Cangnan Mountain. If we rush in, will it violate other people's taboos? "
"Junior brother, you are worrying too much."
Yun Guzi waved his hand indifferently and said: "When the Nine sects are fighting with the immortals of Wushuang City, how can they have the time to take care of us little people? Not to mention the distance here. There are still eight hundred miles to go from Cangnan Mountain. Let’s fight quickly and capture the nine-tailed golden retriever. We won’t get into trouble.”
He said this with great certainty, and everyone listened. Feeling that it was reasonable, Tie Muyang nodded and said, "What Fellow Taoist Yun said is true, but just to be on the safe side, we should quickly enter the valley, catch the nine-tailed golden retriever, and leave immediately to avoid getting burned. ”
“Okay!”
Everyone present nodded in agreement, and without any hesitation, Temuyang, Yunguzi and Danxiasheng led the team towards the valley. .
Everyone passed through the mouth of the canyon and walked all the way to the depths along the long and narrow canyon. On the way, they encountered some ferocious spiritual beasts that did not open their eyes, but they were dispatched casually. There was no danger along the way.
After walking like this for about half an hour, I suddenly heard a crisp bird song from the cliff. The sound penetrated the cracked stone and resounded throughout the valley.
"Huh?"
Yun Guzi frowned slightly, feeling strange in his heart, and couldn't help but ask: "Fellow Taoists, can you tell what kind of spiritual beast this is? Yun is here I have been cultivating nearby for hundreds of years, but I have never heard it before.”
“It’s a bit strange, this sound.”
Tie Muyang who was on the side thought carefully for a while, then suddenly his eyes widened and shouted: "No, this is not a spiritual beast, it is the 'Candle God Puppet' of Xuanguang Villa!"
"Candle God Puppet" ?”
After hearing this, Yun Guzi and Danxiasheng were slightly startled, with strange expressions on their faces, while the other casual cultivators did not know enough and had not yet reacted, so they were all confused. He looked at Temuyang with an expression on his face.
"Xuanguang Villa is famous for its puppetry. This 'Candle God Puppet' is their puppet that guards the village. It has extremely strong detection ability, and any disturbance cannot be hidden from their ears and eyes. Judging from the cry just now, We should have been discovered," Temuyang said with a solemn expression.
“So what if we discover it?”
The female cultivator in red was very puzzled and interjected: "This Qiling Mountain is not their Xuanguang Villa's territory, why don't they let us in? The Wushuang Domain is so vast, is there no place for us casual cultivators to gain a foothold?" She was a casual cultivator, and she had been ostracized by the monks of the sect before. Now that she had finally reached the late stage of the Juyuan Realm, she had to suffer this kind of birdiness, so naturally she felt resentful.
The rest of the casual cultivators also complained, but Tie Muyang, Yun Guzi and Dan Xiasheng had serious expressions.
The "Candle God Puppet" is the guardian puppet of Xuanguang Villa. It usually does not leave the Villa at all, but now it actually appears on this small Qiling Mountain. It is really incredible.
“Today is the time for discussion between Wushuang City and the nine major sects. As one of the nine major sects, Xuanguan Villa should not be on Cangnan Mountain?”
Among the crowd, a long-haired casual cultivator in green clothes suddenly spoke.
"Yes, Wushuang City is such a powerful force. In order to compete with it, the nine sects almost came out in full force. How could they disperse their strength to come to this Qingling Mountain? Let me tell you, this may just be a kind of spirit that we don't know. The cry of the beast is somewhat similar to that of the 'Candle God Puppet'." Another monk also said.
"Hmph! The Nine Sects are usually arrogant and domineering, how could they ever take us casual cultivators seriously? Now they and Wushuang City are fighting dogs on Cangnan Mountain, and there is nowhere to spare them! This Qiling Mountain I am right and wrong. No!”
“Fellow Daoist Wei is right, what happened just now Birds are chirping, maybe someone got there first and deliberately threatened us. I want to see who is pretending to be a ghost here!"
These casual cultivators are talking to each other and cheering each other up. If you don't have the courage, it seems that Xuanguang Villa is not something to be afraid of. Today, the nine-tailed golden retriever is bound to be obtained.
Only Tie Muyang, Yun Guzi and Dan Xiasheng looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of worry in each other's eyes.
Just as everyone was talking about it, there was another strange sound in the air. Everyone present looked up and saw several black spots falling from the sky above the cliff, reaching the top of everyone's heads in an instant.
Flying closer, everyone saw clearly that these black spots were actually monsters with snake heads and bird bodies and four legs under their bellies!
On each monster stands a man in golden robes, with a cold expression and cold eyes.
“It’s really the ‘Candle God Puppet’!”
Tiemu Yang was the most knowledgeable person among the crowd. He recognized the origins of those monsters at a glance and hurriedly raised his hands and shouted: "I'm Tiemu Yang, these two are from Qixia Palace." Descendants, we didn’t know that Xuanguang Villa was working here, I hope you can forgive me for wandering into the valley by mistake!"
He is a casual cultivator, and he is afraid that the other party will not show mercy, so he deliberately moved out of Yunguzi and Danxiasheng's disciples, hoping that the other party would see Qi. For Kasumiya's sake, don't pursue the accidental intrusion.
Tie Muyang used his full strength and the sound was heard far away. He thought that the other party would accept their apology, but he didn't expect that the men in gold robes high in the sky heard it. Instead of responding at all, they landed. The speed is one minute faster.
“Something’s wrong!”
Yun Guzi next to him suddenly muttered. He is a well-rounded and quick-thinking person. When he saw something strange, he reacted one step faster than others. He immediately made a magic trick, and with the wind blowing under his feet, he retreated to the back of the crowd.
At this moment, a golden-robed monk flying at the front suddenly stamped his foot. The "Candle God Puppet" under his feet suddenly opened its mouth, spit out hundreds of golden streams of light, and went straight to the group of casual cultivators below.
“No!”
Seeing the murderous aura in the glow, everyone realized that these monks from Xuanguang Villa did not want to argue with them at all, and they would kill them as soon as they met!
“Ah!”
Among the crowd, a monk who reacted a little slower, because he had no time to dodge, was instantly pierced by these golden streams of light, and his body was beaten into a pile of mud.
When the people around him saw this, their hearts trembled, and they hurriedly took out their own magic weapons, while protecting their whole body, they retreated towards the entrance of the valley.
“Fellow Taoists of Xuanguan Villa, we are disciples of Qixia Palace. The master of your sect, Wushan layman, is a close friend of our master. Please consider the origin of the two sects and give us a way out. "Danxiasheng flew into the air and said loudly while cupping his hands.
In his opinion, he is a disciple of a well-known and upright sect, and he does not belong to the same group as these casual cultivators, so there is no need to hide behind them.
However, what Dan Xiasheng never expected was that the golden-robed monks turned a deaf ear to his words. Seeing him flying into the air, they all activated the "Candle God Puppet" under their feet, and hundreds of streams of light streaked through it. Changkong actually rushed to call him first.
“No! You.”
With a scream, golden light penetrated his body. Poor Danxiasheng, there were many methods that he had not yet used, but he fell into the trap and became the second monk to be disemboweled.
Seeing this, the rest of the people didn’t know that these monks in Xuanguan Villa were going to kill them all today and would not give anyone a chance to survive!
"Run! Spread out and run!"
Temuyang shouted, sacrificing the magic weapon "Lingwu Bell" above his head, protecting his whole body, and flying towards the entrance of the valley. .
The rest of the people were no exception, and each used their own means to escape. Yun Guzi saw the bad opportunity and was the first to run away, not even caring about the life and death of his fellow juniors. At this time, he had already ran away a hundred feet. Outside.
However, several golden-robed monks in mid-air smiled coldly, and then each raised their hands to make a magic spell.
The seven "Candle God Puppet" opened their mouths at the same time, and thousands of golden streams of light poured down, as if a golden rain had fallen, covering the entire canyon.
Swish, brush, brush!
As the golden streamer fell, the canyon kept wailing.
In just a few breaths, all the monks who were talking about entering the valley just now were wiped out!
All the monks, including Yun Guzi, were pierced by those golden streams of light, and eventually turned into a pile of minced corpses.
The originally vibrant valley was left with only deathly silence
After a while, a man in gold robe suddenly said:
“Go! Look! See if they are all dead."
With this man's order, all the other monks jumped off the "Candle God Puppet" and began to inspect the corpses one by one along the mountain path.
However, just when everyone's attention was focused on the corpses, an inconspicuous black mosquito flew out from the crack in the cliff.
I don’t know what’s so special about this mosquito, but the golden-robed monks actually turned a blind eye to it, as if they didn’t see it, and let it fly over their heads and go deep into the canyon
