The monk in green hiding in the cave is Song Qingming, who has been in the inner hall for several days.
After he entered the inner hall before, he did not choose to search for spiritual objects everywhere like other Jindan monks. He also did not go directly to find the location of his target Qiu Wuxin, but came directly here. Hiding.
The reason why I chose this high mountain is that it is not far from the "Fenglei Hall", an extremely important place in the inner hall, and that is where Song Qingming must enter next.
The "Fenglei Palace" is located in the northeast corner of the inner hall. It is an extremely large ancient palace ruins. It contains many various spiritual objects left by ancient monks, as well as several tall plants that can condense fourth-level spiritual fruits. Level spirit tree.
But this place is shrouded in a special poisonous mist all year round. As long as ordinary monks get close to the poisonous mist, they will immediately fall into an illusion and be unable to escape, and slowly turn into withered bones in the poisonous mist.
Even the Nascent Soul stage monks who stand at the top of the world of immortality usually find it difficult to forcefully break through the poisonous mist outside and directly enter the "Wind and Thunder Palace".
Only every hundred years, when the vitality of heaven and earth in the secret realm is the densest, will the poison around the "Fenglei Palace" take the initiative to disperse, revealing the true appearance of the hall.
The monks who enter the secret realm at that time can directly enter the temple to search for high-level spiritual objects inside. This is why the entire "Wind and Thunder Island" secret realm will only be opened once every hundred years.
Because we know that "Luo Maple Valley" will not only send Qiu Wuxin this time, but also have many other golden elixir monks accompanying him, it will be difficult for Song Qingming alone to succeed even with Chen Shutian as an internal agent.
In order to ensure the success of this operation, before Song Qingming went to "Fenglei Island", Chen Shutian and Feng He had already made an agreement with him to attack Qiu Wuxin in the "Fenglei Palace".
In the "Fenglei Palace" that opens every hundred years, not only the monks from the six major sects will come to fight for it, but there are also many other small Jindan sects and casual cultivators in the surrounding area who will also appear here.
In order to compete for the spiritual objects, the scene will definitely be chaotic. This is also the best time for Song Qingming to take action.
Before entering the secret realm, Song Qingming also saw with his own eyes that Chen Shutian and Qiu Wuxin came in together. The two must be acting together now.
As long as Chen Shutian can seize the opportunity and provide him with the exact location of Qiu Wuxin, then Song Qingming will be very confident that he can take advantage of the chaos and kill the opponent directly.
Knowing that there are golden elixir monks everywhere in the inner hall, Song Qingming does not want to take the initiative to compete with them for spiritual objects and cause trouble.
Therefore, he came to a place not far from the "Fenglei Palace" and hid, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to practice the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Art" while waiting for the time for the "Fenglei Palace" to open.
For several days at first, there was no movement nearby.
Until today, several groups of Jindan monks suddenly appeared one after another passing by nearby, heading directly to the location of the "Fenglei Palace".
These monks all came closer at once, and Song Qingming immediately guessed that the time for the opening of the "Fenglei Palace" must be coming soon.
After getting up and packing up the things in the cave, Song Qingming removed the magic circle at the door, then took out the "Phantom Boat" and turned it into a ray of light and disappeared on the mountain.
Song Qingming's hiding place was only a few dozen miles away from the "Feng Lei Palace". Not long after, he saw a vast white fog appearing in the distance, and he quickly got off the flying boat and stopped at a place far away from the white fog.
At this time, there were many monks parked around Baiwu. Song Qingming took a cursory glance and found that there were already twenty or thirty people.
Without exception, these people are all powerful men whose cultivation has reached the Golden Core stage. Among them, there are not many early-stage Golden Core monks, and most of them have cultivation levels above the middle stage of the Golden Core.
These people were standing around in groups of twos and threes. Some were talking to each other, while others were staring at the white mist not far away.
Noticing that another monk had arrived, the five or six monks nearby immediately looked at Song Qingming's location. When they saw that Song Qingming came alone, their faces suddenly became a little surprised. color.
One of the taller middle-aged men in white robes glanced at Song Qingming and couldn't help but ask his companions: "Who is this person? He dares to invade Fenglei Palace alone!"
< br>"Haha! I guess he Either he got separated from his companions after coming in, or he accidentally met someone from the six major sects and died in their hands. Now he is the only one left."
"Not bad! We have reached the eighth level of the Golden Core. His strength should not be weak, and it is not impossible to escape the pursuit of the six major sects. He should be lucky enough to get here."
Hearing the explanations of the two companions beside him, the middle-aged man in white robes said. The man rolled his eyes and said again:
"Two fellow Taoists, I am afraid that this person has come here alone now. I am afraid that he is already worried. As long as we are willing to step forward and win over him, we will probably agree."
It will definitely be a tough battle for us to enter the Fenglei Palace next. If this person can join us, we can also get a lot of help. If you two also have this intention, I am willing to go and make peace with him. You What do you think? "
Hearing the suggestion of the middle-aged man in white robe, a trace of hesitation suddenly appeared on the faces of the two people beside him. After a while, one of them slowly said: "Brother Xue's suggestion is indeed true. There is some truth.
However, this person’s cultivation level is not low. We don’t know where he came from. It would be a bit unreliable to go with him rashly.
Besides, he only came here alone. It is very likely that he has met people from the six major sects before. If this person offends them, we will be implicated.
A few of us just want to come in and try our luck. One more person or one less person will not have that big of an impact. I think it’s better not to deal with such people rashly. ”
After saying this, the companion gave the middle-aged man in white robe a meaningful look, as if he was a little confused about his sudden suggestion.
"Uh-huh, if I say this, if the two fellow Taoists think it's inappropriate, then let this matter go. We will leave him alone and let's go in as originally agreed!"
Feeling that both companions did not agree with this, the middle-aged man in white robe immediately smiled and shook his head, giving up his original thoughts and looking away from Song Qingming.
These people all used secret methods to transmit their voices when they spoke. Song Qingming, who was standing far away, had no idea what they were just talking about him.
After landing, he took a careful look around and saw that there were scattered golden elixir cultivators all around. No one from the six major sects was found. Song Qingming slowly felt relieved and took out a bamboo hat from his storage bag. Put it on his head.
The people around him also didn't pay much attention to Song Qingming who came alone. They basically looked at Song Qingming for a few times and quickly withdrew their gaze when they saw that he was not someone they knew well.
After standing there and waiting for a while, three more escaping lights suddenly flew from the sky and landed directly not far in front of Song Qingming.
Song Qingming took a closer look and found that these three people were actually people he had dealt with in the "Wind and Thunder Island" market before, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
The three people who came were a young woman in white, a hunchbacked old man with white hair, and finally a charming-looking woman in black. She was also the one who used her charm skills to have sex with Song Qingming in the workshop. The people in the city fighting for the formation.
Seeing the appearance of these three people, Song Qingming was also a little afraid that they would recognize him and cause some trouble for him. When the other party did not notice him, he took the initiative to step back a little and pulled away. the distance between them.
However, his somewhat inconspicuous behavior unexpectedly attracted the attention of the hunchbacked old man, who looked towards him with a hint of surprise.
"Mr. Qi, what's wrong?"
The woman in white standing aside saw the hunchbacked old man next to her suddenly looking towards where Song Qingming was, so she asked curiously.
Hearing this, the hunchbacked old man immediately turned around and replied with a smile: "It's nothing. We have dealt with this person in the market before, but we didn't expect him to come here alone."< br>
“You have dealt with us, is it the person who robbed my formation board?”
After hearing what the hunchbacked old man said, combined with the aura of cultivation exuding from Song Qingming's body, the woman in black next to them suddenly thought of Song Qingming's figure, with a look of surprise on her face.
At that time in the market, Song Qingming had no intention of giving in to the three of them. The three women in black always thought that Song Qingming had some background behind him.
It was only now that she saw that Song Qingming came to the "Feng Lei Palace" alone, that the woman in black realized that her previous speculation seemed wrong. Song Qingming should be just an ordinary cultivator, not as they imagined. So complicated.
Seeing the woman in black showing a bit of displeasure towards Song Qingming's position, the hunchbacked old man nodded calmly, then sighed and continued:
"This person has a strong spiritual consciousness and is not low in cultivation. He dares to come here alone. He must have some confidence. We'd better not provoke such a person at will."
"Well! What Mr. Qi said is that this person came here alone, and he was probably just joining in the fun. This time we came to the secret realm to grab the treasure, but don't miss the opportunity because of him."
Listen. After being reminded by the hunchbacked old man and the woman in white, the woman in black withdrew her gaze and ignored Song Qingming who was not far away.
Song Qingming naturally felt the looks that the other three were looking at him. Suspecting that the other party had recognized his identity, he felt helpless at this moment.
The hunchbacked old man among the three people had very advanced cultivation. He was one of the few masters among the golden elixir monks that Song Qingming had ever seen. He didn't seem too surprised that this person would see through his disguise at such a close distance.
Fortunately, after the other party talked for a few words, he quickly turned his eyes away and stopped paying attention to himself. Song Qingming breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the "Wind and Thunder Palace" is about to open, everyone's targets are the various high-level spiritual objects in the ancient ruins behind the white mist. Under normal circumstances, no one would choose to trouble others at this time.
After the three women in white arrived here, not long after, five or six waves of monks arrived. These people were all casual cultivators like the surrounding monks.
It wasn’t until half a day later that six escaping lights suddenly flew from the sky, and then Qiu Wuxin dropped from the sky with five golden elixir elders from “Luo Maple Valley”.
“Get away!” As Qiu Wuxin shouted angrily, several Jindan monks who were standing nearby looked at each other. Although their faces were a little unhappy, they still hurried. They stepped aside and gave up the positions they originally occupied to the people from "Luofeng Valley".
When the many casual cultivators nearby saw the sudden appearance of the cultivators from "Falling Maple Valley", their faces also became a little more cautious, and they quickly chose to stay away from them.
Chen Shutian, who was standing behind Qiu Wuxin, arrived here and quickly began to search the surrounding crowd. However, after looking around, she could not find the person she wanted to see most, and she couldn't help but have a look of confusion on her face. .
“Junior sister Chen, are there any friends you know who are here?”
Seeing that Chen Shutian’s eyes have been searching for something, a six-level golden elixir standing next to her The elder of "Luofeng Valley" asked curiously.
Hearing this, Chen Shutian immediately averted her gaze and replied with a smile: "Senior Brother Xu misunderstood, I have just formed the elixir not long ago, how can any of my friends come here.
It’s just that seeing so many golden elixir masters made me a little curious!”
Seeing that Chen Shutian had a bit of worry on her face when she spoke, the "Luo Maple Valley" elder thought that she was a little scared, so he quickly smiled and comforted:
"Haha! Junior Sister Chen, you are Although these people are not low in cultivation, most of them are from casual cultivators, and few of them are truly capable.
And those of us from the six major sects have already done this beforehand. We have an agreement that when we compete for spiritual objects, we must not kill each other.
When we enter the Fenglei Palace later, as long as the junior sister follows us closely, there will definitely not be much danger. "
Hearing this, Chen Shutian's face suddenly became calmer, and then she directly handed over her hands and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Xu, for reminding me!"
As soon as Chen Shutian finished speaking, seven or eight rays of light appeared on the horizon in the distance. Then Xiao Haoran, who was still holding a volume of books in his hand, descended from the sky with several "Qingyang Sect" monks and stopped at the "Luoyang Sect". Maple Valley" beside everyone.
“You guys from Luo Maple Valley came early, and you actually got here before us. Head Luo is really well-mannered, and he always stays ahead of us.”
After landing, Xiao Haoran did not look directly at Qiu Wuxin, who was standing at the front of the crowd in "Luofeng Valley". Instead, he took the initiative to say hello to the leader Luo Liangshan on the side. This scene also made his colleagues "Luofeng Valley" "Gu" monk felt a little surprised.
Seeing that Qiu Wuxin had an ugly look on his face, Luo Liangshan hurriedly stood up and smoothed things over with his hands: "Fellow Daoist Xiao misunderstood, this time our Luo Maple Valley leader is Junior Brother Qiu. I'm just here to help Help."
"Oh! I have been studying in seclusion on the mountain all day, and the news is really blocked. I don't even know that Fellow Daoist Qiu has advanced to the ninth level of the Golden Core. I am really ashamed.
After Xiao Haoran finished speaking, he turned around and cupped Qiu Wuxin's hand with a hint of apology.
Although he knew in his heart that Xiao Haoran said this at first, just to embarrass himself, Qiu Wuxin, who can cultivate to the realm of golden elixir, is naturally not a person with no authority.
Although he was already very unhappy with Xiao Haoran in his heart, Qiu Wuxin still showed some magnanimity on his face, nodded slightly and bowed his hand in return.
“In the last trial meeting, it was all because I didn’t stop that Taoist fellow Taoist Qiu accidentally lost. After I went back next time, I was worried that fellow Taoist Taoist would be in ruins. I wanted to take the time to write a letter to Luo Maple Valley to comfort fellow Taoist Yes, I was just busy with other things and forgot about this matter.
Now that I see that fellow Taoist not only did not feel discouraged, but also improved in cultivation, it seems that my worries are somewhat unnecessary, and I can do it thoroughly. Feel relieved.”
"Xiao Haoran, you are going too far."
More than ten years ago, a trial meeting was held in the "Tianhai League". At that time, Qiu Wuxin was defeated miserably in the final decisive battle. Xiao Haoran, it was a huge blow to him for a while.
Because this incident happened within the "Tianhai Alliance", few people outside knew about it.
Now Xiao Haoran mentioned this matter again in front of so many casual cultivators, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations from the surrounding people. Qiu Wuxin, who had remained calm at first, could no longer bear it at this moment. As soon as the magic power was activated, a high-level flying sword magic weapon appeared in front of him.
"Junior Brother Qiu, my ancestor said not to fight against the people of Qingyang Sect. I also ask Junior Brother to put the sect's great responsibility first and not to fall into their tricks of provoking generals."
As soon as Qiu Wuxin saw that Qiu Wuxin was about to take action, the Luo Liangshan people standing next to him quickly stepped forward to block him, for fear that they would really make a move here and delay the subsequent important event of entering the palace to fight for the spiritual objects. .
On Xiao Haoran's side, he kept looking at the people in "Falling Maple Valley" with a look of indifference and provocation on his face.
"Haha! I didn't expect that we would see such a bustle just after we arrived. What a coincidence!"
Right in the "Qingyang Gate" and "Luofeng Valley" When there was some tension between the two sides, another voice came from mid-air. After a while, several sword lights descended from the sky from far to near.
“Han Feng, it’s not easy for your Jade Sword Sect to watch the excitement here!”
Seeing that the person coming was a monk from the "Jade Sword Sect", Qiu Wuxin, who was still looking angry at first, immediately suppressed the anger in his heart and turned his attention to a man in white who was headed by the "Jade Sword Sect".
When Han Feng saw that Qiu Wuxin suddenly changed his target and stared at him, he quickly explained with a smile:
"Don't worry, my fellow Taoists, our Jade Sword Sect has always been unfaithful. Those of you who like to meddle in other people's business, no matter what happens here today, we will never spread it intentionally, you just Just do what you want.”
“Hmph! You really know how to come, and all the fun has been ruined by you.”
Xiao Haoran saw that Qiu Wuxin regained his senses. , suddenly lost interest, took out a book, turned around and started reading by himself, ignoring the other monks around him.
Seeing that the scene that was on the verge of breaking out just now suddenly became quiet again, the casual cultivators around who were watching the excitement were also disappointed and sighed slightly.
For these casual cultivators, when they go in to compete for spiritual objects later, they will definitely be very difficult to defeat the monks from the six major sects.
If they could fight directly outside, this would give many casual cultivators an excellent opportunity. Unfortunately, the two sides were at war with each other at any time but had no intention of actually fighting.
Seeing this, Zhongzhao, who was a little disappointed, quickly retracted his gaze and turned his attention to the white mist not far away.
After the "Jade Sword Sect" monks arrived, people from the remaining three Nascent Soul Sects also arrived here one after another, and other casual cultivators arrived from time to time.
Soon, nearly a hundred Jindan monks gathered outside the white mist.
“Look, the white mist is beginning to recede!”
Just as the last monk from the Nascent Soul Sect “Jinxia Palace” arrived, a man was trying to observe the white mist in front of him. The monk suddenly shouted, attracting the attention of many Jindan monks present.
On closer inspection, I discovered that the extremely dense white mist was slowly retreating as the man said, but at an extremely slow speed for a while before retreating less than a foot away.
After about one stick of incense, the white mist finally began to retreat faster, and the originally dense mist became much lighter.
Not long after, as the white mist quickly dispersed, a tall and somewhat dilapidated giant palace slowly emerged in front of everyone's eyes.
"Is this the Fenglei Palace?"
Seeing the appearance of this tall palace, some monks who came here for the first time immediately asked the people around them.
But before the man could get a reply, a ray of light appeared beside him and flew in the direction of the palace. The speed was so fast that everyone below was surprised.
The owner of this escape light is a seventh-level golden elixir monk. Because he has practiced a relatively advanced secret escape technique, even the ninth-level golden elixir monk may not be able to catch up with him when he is running at full speed on weekdays. .
That's why he was very confident in his own speed, and wanted to use his special magical power to enter the hall to hunt for treasures before everyone else.
However, although he moved quickly, before he could fly very far, a white light suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him.
Before this person could figure out what was happening, a huge fist suddenly appeared in front of him, sending him flying hundreds of feet away.
The owner of this fist is none other than Xiao Haoran, who is the number one golden elixir master in the "Tianhai Immortal Realm". He has put away the books in his hands at some point.
This blow directly shocked everyone below. They did not expect that Xiao Haoran was not only powerful, but also had such powerful mysterious powers that he could actually change places in the air.
"Let's go!"
After the future man was beaten away, Xiao Haoran did not continue to care about him. After glancing at the people below who were still looking surprised, he led the "Qingyang Sect" who followed him. The monk turned into streaks of escaping light and took the lead in flying towards the palace.
"Let's go."
After starting from the "Qingyang Sect", the other monks from the Yuanying Sect also followed them and quickly headed towards the direction of the main hall. Fly away.
Waiting until all the monks from the six major sects had left, the casual cultivators in the surrounding area who had just been shocked by Xiao Haoran began to turn into light-escape groups and rush towards the "Wind and Thunder Palace" in the distance. . (End of chapter)
