Chapter 1538: Gate of Life and Death

The storm finally came to nothing.

What was surprising was that, despite the fact that the Tianyuan Spiritual Tree had fallen into Jiuyan's hands, no one in the Yaoshen Sect made a statement, and they just went about their business as usual.

Ye Chunyang had been watching the situation until the Tianyuan Spiritual Tree had become a foregone conclusion, and then he finally met Fangyu and Zhongming on the pretext of visiting to express his intention to leave.

Everyone thought that the Tianyuan Spiritual Tree had been taken away by Jiuyan, which was also a good thing for Ye Chunyang, at least no one would pay attention to him because of it.

Hearing his farewell, Fangyu and Zhongming were a little surprised at first, but they did not stop him. Obviously, Ye Chunyang's intention to leave the island was already within their expectations.

Even before Ye Chunyang left, he had told him to be careful of Jiuyan.

In response, Ye Chunyang seemed a little stunned. Although he did not take Jiuyan too seriously, he did not reject their good intentions.

After everything was ready, Ye Chunyang stayed on the island for another two days. It was not until the third day at dawn that he and Yu Guzi escaped from the barrier without alarming anyone and disappeared into the vast sea.

…

A majestic mountain, towering and majestic.

Standing on the top of the mountain, you can reach the sky and look down at the mountains.

Looking at Zhongzhou, only the inner gate of Kunlun Ruins can have such a magnificent view.

However, what is surprising is that there is nothing else in this magnificent mountain, only a dilapidated Taoist temple, which looks very old.

All Kunlun Ruins disciples know that this is the place where the supreme elder Hao De Zhenren practices in seclusion, and all those who pass by here pay respect in awe.

However, most disciples know that there is another reason why Hao De Zhenren practices in this dilapidated Taoist temple.

This is not only a Taoist temple, but also the entrance to the gate of life and death, guarded by Hao De Zhenren himself.

Today, outside the Taoist temple, there were many people, from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and the disciples from all the peaks gathered together, but it was silent. Everyone was looking forward to it, as if waiting for something.

In the front, Master Haode and Taoist Dengxuan were playing chess, looking indifferent as usual, without any anxiety.

Taoist Yichen and other nine peak elders stood silently beside them, sometimes paying attention to the two people playing chess, sometimes looking at the top of the mountain, but no one spoke.

After an unknown period of time, Taoist Dengxuan looked up and suddenly said, "Brother Haode, how long have they been in?"

"It should be three days." Master Haode made a move and replied.

"Three days, if nothing unexpected happens, there will be a result soon." Taoist Dengxuan's eyes flickered slightly, and no one could see what he was thinking.

Master Haode said, "Brother, you lost this game."

Taoist Dengxuan was stunned and looked at the chessboard. There was no way out, and it was a dead end.

"After all, Senior Brother is better at chess, and Deng Xuan admits defeat." Taoist Deng Xuan said gracefully.

Master Haode smiled and said, "Junior Brother was undecided, so he naturally lost this game, but it seems that Junior Brother is very concerned about the results of the trial of the two juniors."

Taoist Deng Xuan did not answer, but his eyes were slightly condensed.

"Everything is destined by heaven. Who of the two of them will eventually pass the Gate of Life and Death depends on luck." Master Haode smiled and said, "Junior Brother, don't worry too much. Although the two juniors have only advanced to the Spiritual Transformation Realm not long ago, they have a solid foundation. Although the Gate of Life and Death is dangerous, it may not be difficult for them."

Taoist Deng Xuan frowned, and after a long silence, he suddenly said, "That being said, Senior Brother, you also know that there have been frequent strange phenomena and many changes in the Gate of Life and Death in recent years. I am afraid that something unpredictable will happen."

After saying this, Taoist Deng Xuan's expression was obviously depressed.

"That's their fate, and you and I can't change it." Master Haode shook his head, "What's more, you and I let them in this time, in addition to training, isn't it also to find out the truth?"

Deng Xuan Taoist pondered for a moment and stopped talking.

As the two giants finished talking, there was a silence beside them.

The elder Jiufeng stood quietly, always looking at the top of the mountain. They had been waiting here for three days and three nights, and had not moved a bit.

In the back, many disciples were also waiting, with fanaticism in their eyes.

"Daddy, do you think Senior Sister Gu will win?"

In the crowd, a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old asked a middle-aged man in black robe.

The middle-aged man in black robe frowned slightly and did not answer.

The girl looked at his solemn look and wanted to ask something else, but the words on her lips finally stopped.

"Ruoruo, don't worry, Senior Sister Gu has advanced to the spiritual realm and cultivated magic power. This time, she will be safe and sound in the life and death gate training." A cold and beautiful woman in her early twenties next to her said.

"I hope so." Guan Ruoruo pursed her lips and said, "Although who becomes the head of the sect has little to do with us, Sister Yu, you have also seen that Zhang Wuchen's actions in recent years have made people unhappy. In comparison, I would rather see Senior Sister Gu as the head of the sect."

The cold and beautiful woman's expression was slightly stagnant, and she did not answer.

"What Zhang Wuchen has done in recent years is indeed a bit excessive, but it is also to win over forces for his own competition for the position of head of the sect, which is not considered out of line. The two elders did not stop it, and you two should not discuss it lightly." The middle-aged man in black robe said faintly.

"But Daddy, Zhang Wuchen secretly suppressed his disciples and did everything he could. Now many disciples are forced to support him. His means are too despicable." Guan Ruoruo was dissatisfied.

"So what?" Taoist Yichen said lightly.

Personally, he did not agree with Zhang Wuchen's behavior, but from the perspective of a superior, if he did not have this kind of courage, even if he won the experience in the Gate of Life and Death, he would not be a leader.

Guan Ruoruo opened his mouth and muttered a few words to himself.

She naturally understood what Taoist Yichen said. Although Gu Qian and Zhang Wuchen had both advanced to the spirit realm, judging from their different performances in the past three years, Zhang Wuchen was obviously much more active, while Gu Qian mostly practiced outside. , she went into seclusion alone after she came back, without any thought of winning over people's hearts, which made her a little worried.

"Ruoruo, you don't have to think too much. In fact, in my opinion, Gu Qian is indeed more suitable to be the head of Kunlun Ruins than Zhang Wuchen. Zhang Wuchen is ruthless and extreme. If he is in charge of Kunlun Ruins, even if he has prospects, it will not last long. It may not win the hearts of the people." Taoist Yichen was silent for a while and sighed.

"That's natural. Sister Gu is extremely talented and has made great achievements in repairing the seal of Tianxuan Mountain. Who should she take as the leader?" Guan Ruoruo said proudly, obviously supporting Gu Qian.

Taoist Yichen laughed helplessly and said, "Even so, it still depends on the results of this experience. If Gu Qian cannot win, she will not be destined for the position of head."

At this point, he looked at the top of the mountain and narrowed his eyes slightly, "And there have been constant changes in the Gate of Life and Death recently. I'm afraid that their experience this time will not go so smoothly."

"Dad, what is so mysterious about the Gate of Life and Death?" Guan Ruoruo asked in surprise.

Lin Yu on the side also looked curiously.

The disciples of Kunlun Ruins only know that the Life and Death Sect is a training place that candidates for the head of the past must go through, but what is inside, ordinary disciples are not qualified to know.

Despite this, there are still some rumors circulating, which seem to be extremely dangerous, and you may die if you are not careful.

Taoist Yichen's eyes flashed slightly, and after a long time he said: "It's okay to tell you that the Gate of Life and Death is formed by the gathering of negative energy from the Kunlun Ruins. If an ordinary person walks in, he or she will escape death."

"The energy of negative veins?"

Guan Ruoruo and Lin Yu looked puzzled. They had never heard of such news.

"There is positive and negative in heaven and earth, and yin and yang in all things. What we cultivators cultivate is pure spiritual energy. Naturally, there is also negative energy in the world. Where the spiritual energy is stronger, the negative energy is also proportional to it. The huge mountain gate of Kunlun Ruins has negative energy. The Qi of the pulse accumulates over the years and has no place to release, so the ancestors tried to trap this Qi in the door of life and death."

Taoist Yichen said slowly.

"The energy of negative veins will give birth to various demonic spirits. They have been trapped for many years. Like human monks, they also know how to practice. Candidates for the head of the past generations have entered the life and death sect to experience, and they are responsible for killing these demons and hunting down the number of demons. It will be recorded in their immortal value cards.”

"but……"

Having said this, Taoist Yichen paused slightly.

"Dad, what's the matter?" Guan Ruoruo was surprised and couldn't help but ask.

Taoist Yichen looked at Master Haode and Taoist Dengxuan who were still playing chess in front of him, and said: "Some time ago, the two great elders summoned the elders of Jiufeng for a meeting. Changes occurred frequently in the gate of life and death, and the spiritual energy of the medicine garden was also greatly affected. If you absorb it, a big demon may be born, and the danger will be doubled if Gu Qian and Zhang Wuchen go in. "

Guan Ruoruo's face changed slightly.

"I once heard Fellow Daoist Ye say about the withering of the medicinal garden spiritual grass. It seemed that the sect was also shaken at that time. Is there really any relationship between the two?" Guan Ruoruo's beautiful eyes flashed with suspicion.

"Fellow Daoist Ye? That boy Ye Xiaobao?" Taoist Yichen's expression changed.

"Exactly." Guan Ruoruo said with a bitter smile.

"Speaking of which, I have never seen that boy in the past few years. Could it be that he is not in the sect?" Taoist Yichen looked a little gloomy as he recalled certain scenes.

"Fellow Daoist Ye has always been in the sect, but he usually takes care of spiritual herbs in the medicine garden. He didn't even come to this fight for the leadership." Lin Yu interjected.

Taoist Yichen nodded when he heard this and said nothing. He just thought of his interaction with "Ye Xiaobao" and his face couldn't help but look a little ugly.

Suddenly, a throbbing came from under my feet.

From gentle at first to more frequent, the entire mountain range began to tremble.

Everyone's eyes narrowed.

Master Haode and Taoist Dengxuan, who were playing chess in front, also stopped suddenly, and then, as if they had a premonition of something, they both raised their heads and looked towards the top of the mountain.

"Are you coming out?"

A dark look flashed in the eyes of Master Hao De, and he murmured to himself.

Taoist Dengxuan put down his chess pieces, stood upright, and stared at the mountain top with his hands behind his back, with expectation on his face.

For today, he spent a lot of energy on Zhang Wuchen, hoping that he would not let him down.

Elder Jiu Feng also realized something and all stepped forward.

The vibrations in the mountains continued, but no one paid attention, and their eyes only focused on the top of the mountain.

At this moment, a black and white intertwined light beam shot out of the air, straight into the sky, and then a scorching sun-like light wave swept across all directions. Everyone saw a huge yin-yang fish pattern across the void, with two figures faintly looming inside!
