Chapter 273 Demon Valley [2-in-1]
“A hundred years ago, Demon Lord Dongyue Peak fought against Zhangxuan Tianshi. At that time, he had already entered the half-step into the realm of immortals. Even if he faced the real divine It's not that he didn't have the strength to fight. Although he lost in the end, the battle was still fierce."
"Later, he was broken into pieces by Zhangxuan Tianshi, and the three incarnations scattered and escaped. The pure demon blood fell into the river land and affected the people in the local village. Everyone in the village became a demon and would become a disaster to the outside world."
"Senior Daogong will bring disaster to the entire village. They all moved into Qingyang Cave, allowing them to live there for generations, slowly purifying the demonic energy. There is also a demon-suppressing weapon hidden in the valley, which was released to prevent demons from causing trouble. Now it is time to recover it. . The second trial for you is to get back the Demon-Suppressing Soldiers. You are still divided into three groups. Which group gets back the Demon-Suppressing Soldiers first will get five jade exquisites. It is up to you to decide how to distribute them. ”
On a high mountain in Qingyang Cave Sky, Taoist Feng pointed to a land not far away that was sealed by clouds and fog and prohibited from prying eyes, and slowly told them the rules of the second trial.
Demon Valley.
"Just looking for one thing?" Everyone was temporarily doubtful about the content of this trial.
Feng Daoist said before that this trial is likely to break their Taoist hearts. There must be some big hole hidden there.
"There is only so much I can tell you, and you need to explore the rest on your own." Feng Daoren chuckled, "The group list has been sent to you before, and you each entered the valley from different directions. , through the fog formation, the trial begins.”
“Go!”
As he flicked his sleeves, three strong winds sent everyone to different places.
Liang Yue's teammates this time are Qi Yingwu and Chen Xuanjiu. In fact, the last team replaced Shang Yunhai and Qi Yingwu took over. In a sense, it can be regarded as a reinforcement.
Moreover, Chen Xuanjiu and Qi Yingwu had just fought side by side in the illusion before. There was no problem with the two people's tacit understanding, and communication could be much simpler. Liang Yue was generally satisfied with this grouping.
It’s just that he felt that the eyes of these two people were a little strange.
When Chen Xuanjiu and Qi Yingwu looked at themselves, there seemed to be a hint of... admiration in their eyes.
Could it be that my feat of having an epiphany for two consecutive months shocked them? Liang Yue speculated silently in his heart.
Before entering Yunwu, he first held up his hands and said: "Brother Qi, Zen Master Xuanjiu, both of them have higher cultivation than me. I will rely on them for this trial."
This is to be polite first, and by the way, it also hands over the command power of the team. After all, these two people are among the top three in the team.
After Liang Yue came out of seclusion yesterday, he realized a little and found that his martial arts cultivation had also unknowingly risen to the middle stage of the Vajra Realm. It seems that while meditating on the Taoist rhyme, the circulation of Qi and blood has also accelerated, and it has not delayed my practice.
But even so, his cultivation level is still far behind that of his two teammates. In this team, he is the one who holds the upper hand, and naturally he will not rush for the limelight.
Winning is all that matters.
“No, no, no.” Qi Yingwu also bowed his hands and saluted, “Although Brother Liang is temporarily behind in cultivation, he is wise, brave, and thoughtful, and his excellence is beyond our reach. You have already done this before. We have cooperated once, so this time I can only rely on the two of you."
Chen Xuanjiu also shook his bald head, "My character is still lacking, and I need more experience to make up for it. I still have to rely on the two of you at the critical moment. Make up your mind.”
The three of them were very polite here, and for a while they actually tried to shirk each other.
"You two call the shots."
"You two make the decision."
"No, no, no, you still make the decision."
"..."
Qi Yingwu experienced the last time he was on the verge of internal strife. Afterwards, I couldn’t believe there was such a good team atmosphere. After the three of them pushed back and forth for a while, he finally made the decision.
"After we go in, we will discuss more and adapt accordingly." He said with a smile.
"Okay."
The three of them nodded to each other, and then entered the mist together.
……
They are not the only ones with a good team atmosphere.
Yan Shenbing, Lin Fenghe and Monk Yuansheng were in a team. The atmosphere among the three of them was a bit awkward at first and they didn’t say anything.
Yan Shenbing, who had the highest level of cultivation, realized that he should take on the responsibility of breaking the ice again. After all, he and Lin Fenghe were now acquaintances, and only Monk Yuansheng was new, so they should also welcome him.
So he looked left and right, and at that moment a gray figure flew into the forest in front of him, so he asked: "Have you ever eaten bats?"
Lin Fenghe: " ?”
Monk Yuansheng hesitated, not knowing what he meant... Was he threatening himself?
If it were before, he might get angry on the spot. But after practicing with Wang Rulin for a few days, he learned a mental method.
If they are friends, then have a good relationship with the other person. If it is an enemy, then it is even more important to have a good relationship with the other party first.
So, after a pause, he replied kindly: "Brother, I am a vegetarian."
"Let's eat hot pot another day." Yan Shenbing nodded and said: "You came back yesterday It’s too late, maybe you don’t know, but the three of us have become sworn brothers, and Lin Fenghe is now my second brother. You take Wu Handing’s place in our team, and we work together.”
“ Hehe." Monk Yuan Sheng smiled, "Then I will be the third brother. The two brothers should support me more."
"No." Yan Shenbing shook his head, "You are also the second brother." br>
Monk Yuansheng was startled again, "How many more of these can there be?"
Thinking about it, he smiled again, "Whatever, a few doesn't matter to me anyway."
...
In contrast, the team atmosphere on Wen Yifan's side may not be that good, but they entered Yunwu very quickly.
This time she is on the same team as Shang Yunhai and Wu Handing.
Needless to say, Shang Yunhai is not only her Xuanmen senior brother, but also her old partner in Zhuxie Division. But this was their first time dealing with Wu Handing, the arrogant and arrogant young master of the Whale Clan.
Fortunately, Wen Yifan has some tips on leading a team and knows how to communicate.
"During the trial, if you cooperate well, we can win together." She looked at Wu Handing and said in a calm tone, "If you don't listen to the command and make your own decisions, I will deal with you first and then finish it. Mission."
She said this so calmly and without any sense of threat. It was as natural as saying that you should eat dumplings with vinegar.
But when Wu Handing heard this, his eyebrows raised.
If anyone feels that this tone is not scary, they can try it themselves in front of Wen Yifan.
He dared to disobey Qi Yingwu and challenge Yan Shenbing, but he did not dare to show his teeth in front of Wen Yifan. Because of this sister, he has no chance of victory.
Others may still be concerned about his identity as the young master of the Whale Clan, but this Supreme Immortal Body of the Xuanmen will be the most conservative successor of the Sword Control Sect in the future. He might also be the Palm Xuan. The successor of the Heavenly Master. You really don't have to care about his identity.
But just agreeing like this is a bit embarrassing. Although I was a little angry, I couldn't refute it.
So he gave silence instead of answering.
Fortunately, there is a good old man like Shang Yunhai in the team. He smiled and comforted: "Junior sister Wen didn't mean that. What she meant was that the solution... Let's sit down and have a good talk, but I believe it won't happen. Yes, after experiencing the setback last time, Wu Shaoxia will definitely make progress."
"I will definitely..." Seeing the steps, Wu Handing was about to get down first.
Wen Yifan turned around and added: "I'm talking about using a sword to solve it."
With one sentence, Wu Handing's expression froze again.
It’s okay if you don’t give me steps. If someone else gives me a small step, you just kick it away.
How excessive!
Do I have to be subdued? Then where should I put my face?
Soon, Wu Handing stepped forward quickly, looked at Wen Yifan with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Wen, wait..."
In Wen In Yifan's slowly raised eyebrows, he dropped a powerful sentence.
"I will definitely obey the command this time!"
...
There are no traps in the clouds and mist, it seems just to cover up the atmosphere inside. But out of caution, Liang Yue and the others still walked very slowly. After all, every step in this place may be dangerous.
After walking for a long time, I finally saw the light ahead.
Taking one step, Lian left the area of clouds and mist, and stepped on a fallen leaf, making a clicking sound.
"Eh?"
The three of them were a little surprised by the scene they saw.
This is a small mountain pass surrounded by low green mountains, with rows of trees on both sides. The autumn wind blows, the fallen leaves are flying, and the yellow and green are mixed.
In front of the open passage in front of the mountain pass, there were about two hundred people standing neatly, including men, women, old and young, holding colorful flags and bouquets, as if they were lining up to welcome us.
Standing at the front was an old man wearing a brown and yellow cloth robe. He put his hands in his sleeves and said with a smile: "Oh, these young heroes have finally arrived. We, the people of Nangu Village, can count. You’re looking forward to it!”
Then he waved, and the sound of gongs and drums sounded behind him, followed by a burst of celebration, "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"
The three of them had thought about many scenes after entering, and they had guessed all the dangers. But I didn't expect it to be such a passionate scene.
Liang Yue carefully investigated and found that none of these people's auras were strange. They were indeed ordinary mortals who had not practiced cultivation. Qi Yingwu and Chen Xuanjiu, the two qi refiners, didn't notice anything, so he was relieved.
"Old man, what are you doing?" He stepped forward to say hello and asked.
“Yesterday, a letter came from the Immortal Chief of Qingyang Taoist Palace, saying that a young hero will come here to take away the demon-suppressing soldiers.” The old man excitedly stepped forward and held Liang Yue’s hand, “We But looking forward to the stars and the moon, I’m waiting for you to come here.”
"Demon-suppressing soldiers?" Liang Yue raised his eyes and glanced around. Sure enough, men, women, old and young were all looking at them eagerly. "Why do you look forward to taking this thing away?"
"Young hero, how about the demon-suppressing soldiers?" The soldiers were placed to suppress the demonic energy in the valley. Since it can be taken away, doesn't it mean that our demonic energy has been almost purified and can see the light of day again?" The old man said excitedly: "Since we were moved to this Demonic Valley a hundred years ago, we have been there. There have been several generations of people who have not left this place. It would be worth dying if we could leave this place in our lifetime!"
"That's it." Liang Yue nodded and asked, "Then do you know about the demon-suppressing soldiers? Where is it hidden? "
"In the Nayuan Mountain." The old man turned around and pointed to a corner of the distant mountain peak exposed behind the nearby blue rocks.
“We have thrived over the years and have developed four villages. They are named after the four villages in the southeast and northwest. Our place is Nangu Village, and the mountain sandwiched between the four villages is Yuanshan. It is said that At that time, the demonic energy flowed down from the mountain and polluted the village. Now it is also the place where the demonic energy is the strongest. All the birds and beasts on the mountain are demonized, and the demon-suppressing soldiers are suppressing it in that mountain. The Demon Valley is where the demonic energy still exists. We villagers have long since returned to normal.”
"Then we will try to take away the demon-suppressing soldiers." Liang Yue said: "As for whether this will allow you to leave this place, I can't guarantee it, but I will try my best to help you fight for it."
"Young hero!" When the old man heard the words, there were tears in the corner of his eyes, "Whether it succeeds or not, you are the savior of our Nangu Village!"
After that, he waved his hand again, "You are about to enter Yuanshan to fight. It’s a tough time, but please have a good meal before you start on your way!”
As he waved, several tall and round village women came up carrying plates of pitch-black dishes. The three of them frowned for a while.
"This is..." Qi Yingwu asked.
"These are the specialties of our Nangu Village." The old man introduced them one by one: "Sweet potato braised snake soup, brown sugar baked rat meat, steamed weasel..."
"I ate them before I came here." No wait. After he finished speaking, Qi Yingwu turned around.
“I am a vegetarian.” Chen Xuanjiu said without hesitation.
The old man looked at Liang Yue eagerly, "Young hero, we prepared it all night. It may be crude, but it is with great care..."
"Old man!" Liang Yue said resolutely: "Shichen It's already late, business is urgent, and we can't delay. If we take out the demon-suppressing soldiers for a while, maybe the villagers can leave these dishes here for a while. We can get the treasure back before they cool down. It’s not too late to eat!”
As soon as the words were heard, the three of them circled around, saluted, and fled into the mountains as fast as they could.
Now I know why this place is called Demon Valley. There is some reason after all.
Looking at their backs, the old man sighed to the villagers: "The three young heroes are really good people. Look at their urgency."
Nangu Village is not big, with the three of them It didn't take long for us to cross the village and arrive at the foot of Yuan Mountain. Sure enough, as soon as you get close, you can feel the gloomy air inside, with a smell of evil.
"It seems that the real test is here." Chen Xuanjiu picked up the finger formula with one hand, and a ray of golden light flashed in front of his forehead, "If the demon-suppressing soldiers are in this mountain, they should be in The place with the strongest evil spirit.”
"Not bad." The other two people agreed.
"Then follow me." Chen Xuanjiu took the lead and took the lead: "But be careful, the road ahead is dark and dense, and there may be many demons lurking there."
Just said As soon as I took a few steps on the mountain road, I saw a ferocious wolf head jumping out in front of me, its eyes glowing red, and it rushed out with a greedy roar!
"Roar——"
Feeling the eerie and chaotic energy coming towards his face, Liang Yue suddenly felt familiar.
The Rakshasa Ghost Market is filled with such aura.
This is the purest evil energy!
Good morning.
