Chapter 22: Things in the Black Mist
Zheng Yi’s eyes fell on the inner gate token in his hand again.
With a slight movement in his heart, he poured the aura and spiritual power of the soul-capturing flag in his body into the inner disciple token.
Sure enough, with a flash of light, the white light emitted above turned into a bit of red, revealing a strange arrow.
Zheng Yi did not hesitate and continued to move forward in the direction indicated by the red.
This time the distance was not very far. After walking about a few hundred meters, Zheng Yi passed through the area covered by thick fog, and the scene in front of him was suddenly revealed.
Looking up, Zheng Yi couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Both sides are actually bottomless cliffs!
Looking down, the black fog is rolling, and it is impossible to see clearly what the scene is at the bottom? It just feels dark and eerie, which makes people feel frightened. Those who are timid and afraid of heights may even feel dizzy and have a feeling of weakness in their legs and feet.
Under his feet, there was a staircase about one meter wide, going up to a deep valley hidden in a thick fog.
It has to be said that all sects in the world of cultivating immortals like to play tricks on themselves, and this is true for both the demon sect and the righteous sect.
It’s just that the righteous cultivation sect is more fairy-like, while the demonic sect’s methods are more mysterious and weird.
Who would have thought that following the guidance of the inner disciple's token, when we came to the stairs going forward, we would see cliffs on both sides of our feet.
If you hadn't paid attention just now, you might have stepped on the air and fallen directly into the abyss.
Monks in the Qi-training stage cannot even fly short distances. If they fall off a cliff, they are all mortal, and they are almost certain to die.
Zheng Yi didn't dare to bet that the monks of the Demon Sect would be so kind and give him a hand at the last moment.
Moreover, when he stopped and looked down, Zheng Yi felt that there was rolling black mist under the cliff, which exuded a terrifying aura that made his soles chill, as if something was staring at him for a moment. Got him.
That kind of terrifying feeling is like ordinary people facing a tiger and a giant beast, with the terrifying pressure of encountering huge danger in life.
In the black mist, which was turbulent and rolling, Zheng Yi looked away, wondering what terrible things were hidden under the cliff.
Even if you fall and survive, I'm afraid there won't be any good results.
First the illusory formation, then the fog, plus the cliff. The methods of the Soul Captor Sect are really elusive.
Maybe this is the style of the Demon Sect!
There were two disciples wearing soul-catching sect costumes stationed outside the valley. They saw Zheng Yi appearing and seemed to be talking about something.
Zheng Yi tidied up his clothes, tied the white jade token representing the identity of the inner disciple around his waist, and strode upwards.
After verifying the token, the guardian disciple looked at him with a strange expression, and without stopping him, he allowed Zheng Yi to enter the valley.
In the blink of an eye, all the fog gradually dissipated, and what appeared in front of us was another heroic scene, which was completely different from the previous weird and gloomy atmosphere.
In front of him was a continuous group of buildings. Towering buildings stood in the valley, and some figures could be faintly seen walking among them.
Looking at the majestic valley, Zheng Yi took a deep breath and walked down.
Walking all the way, Zheng Yi found that there were not many people in the valley.
Even the few Soul Capturing Sect disciples I met on the road were coming and going in a hurry, as if they were not to be approached by strangers.
Only then did Zheng Yi remember that it seemed that at this time, the Soul Capture Sect was having a sect war with the adjacent Hundred Beast Sect because of a vein of spirit stone.
When he came to the sect’s headquarters for the first time, Zheng Yi was completely blind to the large and continuous building complex in front of him. It was extremely unfamiliar. He didn’t know where the so-called internal affairs hall was?
I don’t even know who to ask now.
Suddenly, at this moment, a figure not far away came towards me.
Zheng Yi's eyes couldn't help but light up. He clearly saw that the token on the man opposite was an outer door metal token, and he had already made up his mind.
He couldn't help but take a step forward and block in front of the man.
"Junior brother, I have something to ask you." "May I ask where the sect's internal affairs hall is?!"
Liang Qing just received a The sect mission is about to leave the sect and go to the nearby city to prepare.
He is now approaching the late stage of the third level of Qi training. He has been practicing hard for many years. As long as this task is completed, he will be enough to receive a Qi Nourishing Pill rewarded by the sect.
If you're lucky, it's not impossible to get to the next level.
However, deep down in his heart, he was still thinking about how to complete the integration task?
Suddenly a blind person stood in front of me. I hurried forward and almost bumped into that person.
Liang Qing couldn't help but feel angry. She looked up with cold eyes and found a completely unfamiliar young man. He was dressed in simple clothes and had a vicissitudes of life. He looked like he was on the road in a dusty way.
“A country bumpkin who doesn’t know where he came from.”
“The new sect servant…”
Liang Qing raised the corners of his eyes, about to get angry. , accidentally saw the inner disciple token tied around Zheng Yi's waist.
In fact, this conspicuous inner disciple white jade sign was hung up by Zheng Yi on purpose.
Suddenly, a stream of ice water poured down directly from the top of his head.
Liang Qing's eyes changed, and the anger that had just risen in his heart was immediately extinguished. His face was suddenly filled with a smile, and he hurriedly bowed and asked respectfully.
"Hello, senior brother!"
"The location of the Internal Affairs Hall is over there."
After saying that, he gave Zheng Yi directions.
“Huh?!”
Zheng Yi nodded and walked forward directly.
Behind him, Liang Qing’s expression changed, and he finally gritted his teeth and said respectfully behind him.
"This senior brother..."
"Is there anything else?"
Hearing the voice coming from behind, Zheng Yi paused, turned his head, and said slightly Frowning, he said in a low voice.
During this period of time, he was killing zombies and refining ghosts in the apocalyptic world, but he had developed an invisible chilling aura.
In particular, immortal cultivators are good at the art of looking at energy, and can clearly sense that Zheng Yi naturally has an invisible and gloomy aura condensed in him.
That is the result of natural cohesion and precipitation after dealing with ghosts too much. It cannot be easily faked.
This aura is because Zheng Yi’s cultivation is still shallow. If you don’t pay attention, it is really possible to ignore it. However, once you look carefully, you feel that there is an invisible evil spirit wrapped around his body, and there are endless resentful spirits. The devil is roaring.
Such an aura, coupled with the invisible identity of an inner disciple, immediately had a great intimidating effect.
Hearing Zheng Yi's deep voice, Liang Qing's face couldn't help but turn pale, and she quickly said respectfully.
"Senior brother, don't be surprised. I think this is my first time coming to the mountain gate."
"Speak clearly..."
"What do you mean?"
Zheng Yi looked down at him with an indifferent expression on his face.
