Chapter 769: The situation is tense and shocking the group of cultivators
The green-clothed monk hiding in the cave was Song Qingming, who had entered the inner hall for several days.
After he entered the inner hall, he did not choose to search for spiritual objects like other Jindan monks, nor did he go directly to find the location of his target Qiu Wuxin, but came here and hid directly.
The reason why he chose this high mountain is that it is not far from the "Wind and Thunder Hall", a very important place in the inner hall, and that is also the place where Song Qingming must enter next.
"Wind and Thunder Hall" is located in the northeast corner of the inner hall. It is a very large ancient palace site. There are many spiritual objects left by ancient monks, and there are several high-level spiritual trees that can condense fourth-level spiritual fruits.
But this place is shrouded in a special poisonous fog all year round. Ordinary monks will immediately fall into an illusion and cannot escape as long as they get close to the poisonous fog, and slowly turn into dry bones in the poisonous fog.
Even the Yuanying stage monks who stand at the top of the cultivation world usually find it difficult to force their way through the poisonous fog outside and directly enter the "Wind and Thunder Hall".
Only every hundred years, when the heaven and earth energy in the secret realm is the most dense, will the poisonous substances around the "Wind and Thunder Hall" dissipate on their own, revealing the true appearance of the hall.
At that time, the cultivators who enter the secret realm can directly enter the hall to search for high-level spiritual objects inside, which is why the entire "Wind and Thunder Island" secret realm will only be opened once every hundred years.
Because it is known that "Falling Maple Valley" will not only send Qiu Wuxin alone this time, but also many other Jindan cultivators will accompany him. It is difficult for Song Qingming to succeed alone even with Chen Shutian as an insider.
In order to ensure the success of this action, before Song Qingming went to "Wind and Thunder Island", Chen Shutian and Feng He had already agreed with him to choose to attack Qiu Wuxin in the "Wind and Thunder Hall".
The "Wind and Thunder Hall" that opens every hundred years will not only have cultivators from the six major sects come to compete, but also many other small Jindan sects and various casual cultivators will appear here.
At that time, in order to compete for spiritual objects, the scene will definitely be more chaotic, and this is also the best time for Song Qingming to take action.
Before entering the secret realm, Song Qingming also saw Chen Shutian and Qiu Wuxin coming in together, and the two must be moving together now.
As long as Chen Shutian can seize the opportunity and provide him with the accurate location of Qiu Wuxin, Song Qingming will have a great chance to take advantage of the chaos and kill him directly.
Knowing that there are Jindan cultivators 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 "Wind and Thunder Hall" and hid there, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to practice the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" while waiting for the time when the "Wind and Thunder Hall" will open.
At first, there was no movement around for several days.
Until today, several groups of Jindan cultivators suddenly appeared in succession and passed by the vicinity, and went directly to the location of the "Wind and Thunder Hall".
These cultivators all approached at once, and Song Qingming immediately guessed that the time for the "Wind and Thunder Hall" to open must be approaching.
After getting up and packing up the things in the cave, Song Qingming directly removed the magic circle at the door, and then took out the "Phantom Boat" and turned into a beam of light and disappeared on the mountain.
The place where Song Qingming was hiding was only a few dozen miles away from the "Wind and Thunder Palace". Not long after, he saw a white fog in the distance, and hurriedly landed the flying boat and stopped at a place far away from the white fog.
At this time, there were already many cultivators around the white fog. Song Qingming took a rough look and found that there were already 20 to 30 people.
These people were all strong people who had reached the Jindan stage without exception, and there were not many Jindan early stage cultivators among them. Most of them had a Jindan middle stage or above.
These people stood in groups of three or two, some were talking to each other, and some were staring at the white fog not far away.
Noticing that another cultivator had arrived here, five or six cultivators nearby immediately cast their eyes on Song Qingming's position. When they saw that Song Qingming came alone, their faces suddenly showed a little more surprise.
One of the taller middle-aged men in white robes glanced at Song Qingming and couldn't help asking his companion beside him: "Who is this person? How dare he come to the Wind and Thunder Palace alone!"
"Hehe! I guess he got separated from his companions after coming in, or he was unlucky enough to meet people from the six major sects and died in their hands. Now he is the only one left."
"Yes! This person's cultivation has reached the eighth level of the Golden Core. His strength should not be weak. It is not impossible for him to escape the pursuit of the six major sects. He must be lucky to get here."
Hearing the explanation of the two companions around him, the middle-aged man in white robes rolled his eyes and said:
"Two fellow Taoists, this person is now alone When one person comes here, he must be already worried. As long as we are willing to go forward and win him over, he will probably agree.
Entering the Wind and Thunder Palace next will definitely be a tough battle for us. If this person can join, we can also get a great help. If you two also have this intention, I am willing to go and make peace with him. What do you think? "
Hearing the suggestion of the middle-aged man in white robes, the faces of the two people beside him suddenly showed a trace of hesitation. After a long while, one of them slowly said: "Brother Xue's suggestion does make some sense.
However, this person's cultivation is not low, and we don't know where he came from. I'm afraid it's a bit unreliable to go with him rashly.
Besides, he came here alone, and it is very likely that he had met someone from the six major sects before. If this person had offended them, we would be implicated.
We just wanted to try our luck here, and one more or one less person would not have such a big impact. I think it is better not to deal with such a person rashly. "
After saying this, the companion looked at the middle-aged man in white robe meaningfully, as if he was a little confused about his sudden suggestion.
"Well, if you two Taoist friends feel that it is not appropriate, then let's just leave it at that. Let's not care about him and go in as agreed! "
Feeling that his two companions disagreed with this, the middle-aged man in white robe immediately smiled and shook his head, dispelling the original idea in his mind and retracting his gaze from Song Qingming.
When these people spoke, they all used secret methods to transmit sound. Song Qingming, who was standing far away, didn't know what they were talking about him just now.
After landing, he carefully looked around and saw that there were some casual cultivators around, and no one from the six major sects was found. Song Qingming also slowly put his mind at ease and took out a bamboo hat from the storage bag and put it on his head.
The people around him also didn't care too much about Song Qingming who came alone. They basically looked at Song Qingming a few times, and when they saw that he was not someone they were familiar with, they quickly retracted their gaze.
After standing there and waiting for a while, three more escape lights suddenly flew from the horizon and landed directly on Not far in front of Song Qingming.
Song Qingming looked carefully and found that these three people were the people he had dealt with in the "Fenglei Island" market before, and his face suddenly showed a bit of surprise.
The three people who came were a young woman in white, a white-haired old man with a hunchback, and finally a charming woman in black, who was also the one who used the charm technique to compete with Song Qingming for the array plate in the market.
Seeing these three people appear, Song Qingming was a little afraid that they would recognize him and bring him some trouble in the future. While the other party didn't notice him, he took the initiative to step back a little and distanced himself from them.
However, his somewhat inconspicuous action unexpectedly quickly attracted the attention of the hunchbacked old man, who looked at him with a hint of surprise.
"Old Qi, what's wrong? "
The woman in white standing nearby saw the hunchbacked old man beside her suddenly looking at Song Qingming's location, so she asked curiously.
The hunchbacked old man turned around and smiled and replied: "Nothing, we dealt with this person in the market before, but I didn't expect him to come here alone. "
"He dealt with us before, could he be the one who stole my formation plate? "
Hearing what the hunchbacked old man said, combined with the cultivation aura emanating from Song Qingming, the black-clothed woman beside the two of them immediately thought of Song Qingming's figure, and a bit of surprise appeared on her face.
At that time in the market, Song Qingming had no intention of giving in to the three of them, and the three black-clothed women had always thought that Song Qingming must have some background behind him.
Until now, seeing that Song Qingming actually came to the "Wind and Thunder Palace" alone, the black-clothed woman realized that her previous speculation seemed to be wrong. Song Qingming should be just an ordinary casual cultivator, not as complicated as they imagined.
Seeing that the black-clothed woman showed some displeasure towards Song Qingming's position, the hunchbacked old man first nodded calmly, then sighed and continued:
"This person has a strong spiritual consciousness and a high level of cultivation. He dared to come here alone. I guess he has some confidence. We should not provoke such a person casually. "
"Well! What Elder Qi said is that this person came alone, and he probably just joined in the fun. This time we came to the secret realm to seize treasures, so don't miss the opportunity because of him. "
Hearing the reminders from the hunchbacked old man and the white-clothed woman beside him, the black-clothed woman retracted her gaze and ignored Song Qingming who was not far away.
Song Qingming naturally felt the gazes of the three opponents. He suspected that the other party had recognized his identity, and he was helpless at this moment.
The hunchbacked old man among the three people had a very high level of cultivation. He was a rare master among the Jindan cultivators that Song Qingming had seen. He was not too surprised that his disguise was seen through by this person at such a close distance.
Fortunately, after talking for a few words, the other party quickly turned his gaze away and did not say anything. Paying attention to himself, Song Qingming was slightly relieved.
Now that the "Wind and Thunder Hall" is about to open, everyone's goal is to find various high-level spiritual objects in the ancient ruins behind the white fog. Under normal circumstances, no one would choose to trouble others at this time.
After the three women in white arrived here, five or six waves of cultivators came one after another not long after. These people were all casual cultivators like the surrounding cultivators.
Until half a day later, six escape lights suddenly flew in the sky, and then Qiu Wuxin brought five "Luomae Valley" Jindan elders down from the sky.
"Get away!" With Qiu Wuxin's angry shout, the several Jindan cultivators who were originally standing next to them looked at each other. Although they were a little unhappy on their faces, they hurriedly stepped aside and gave the positions they originally occupied to the "Luomae Valley" people.
The many casual cultivators next to them saw the cultivators of "Luomae Valley" suddenly appear, and their faces also became more cautious, and soon they chose to stay away from them without any agreement.
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 were searching for something, an elder from the "Luofeng Valley" who was on the sixth level of the Golden Core standing next to her asked curiously.
When Chen Shutian heard this, she immediately averted her gaze and replied with a smile: "Senior Brother Xu misunderstood, I just formed the elixir not long ago, how can any of my friends come here.
But seeing so many golden elixir masters made me a little curious for a moment! "
Seeing that Chen Shutian still 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, although these people are not low in cultivation, most of them are casual cultivators, and there are only a few who are truly capable.
And we, the six major sects, have made an agreement in advance that when we compete for spiritual objects, we must not kill each other.
After entering Fenglei Hall later, as long as the junior sister follows closely behind us, there will definitely not be much danger. "
Hearing this, Chen Shutian's face suddenly became calmer, and then she directly held her hands in her hands and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Xu, for reminding me!"
As soon as Chen Shutian finished speaking, seven or eight more escaping lights 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 "Falling Maple Valley". Instead, he took the initiative to say hello to the leader Luo Liangshan on the side. This scene also attracted his colleagues to "Falling Maple Valley" "The 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, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xiao misunderstood, this time our Luo Maple Valley leader is Junior Brother Qiu, I just came in to help. of."
"Oh! I have been studying in seclusion on the mountain all day long, 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 that at first, he was deliberately trying to embarrass himself, but Qiu Wuxin, who can cultivate to the realm of golden elixir, is naturally not a person with no authority.
Although he was already very displeased with Xiao Haoran in his heart, Qiu Wuxin still showed some magnanimity on his face, nodded slightly and returned the gesture with his hand.
"In the last trial meeting, it was all because I didn't stop that Daoist Fellow Qiu accidentally lost. After I went back next time, I was worried that Fellow Daoist would be in ruins. I wanted to take the time to write a letter to Luofeng Valley to comfort Fellow Daoist, but I was busy with other things for the time being. Things forgot about it.
Now that I see that fellow Taoist not only did not feel discouraged by this, but has actually improved in cultivation, it seems that my worries are somewhat unnecessary, and I can feel completely relieved. "
"Xiao Haoran, you are going too far."
More than ten years ago, a trial meeting was held in the "Tianhai Alliance". At that time, Qiu Wuxin was defeated by Xiao Haoran in the final decisive battle, which was a huge blow to him.
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. With a movement of his magic power, he fired a high-level flying weapon. The 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 beside 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. .
Xiao Haoran, on the other hand, kept looking at the people in "Falling Maple Valley" with a somewhat indifferent and provocative look on his face.
"Haha! I didn't expect that we would see so much excitement just after we arrived. What a coincidence!"
Just when the two sides of "Qingyang Gate" and "Luofeng Valley" were tense, 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 that 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 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, fellow Taoists, our Jade Sword Sect never likes to meddle in other people's business. No matter what happens here today, we will never spread it intentionally. You can just do what you want."
"Hmph! You really know how to choose the right time to come, and all the fun has been ruined by you."
Seeing that Qiu Wuxin had regained his senses, Xiao Haoran suddenly lost interest. He took out a book and turned around to read 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, if they go in to compete for spiritual objects later, it will definitely be 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, Zhongzhi, who was a little disappointed, quickly retracted his gaze and shifted 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 came 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 fog is starting to recede!"
Just when the last monk from the Nascent Soul Sect "Jinxia Palace" arrived, a monk who was trying to observe the white mist in front of him suddenly shouted, attracting the attention of many Jindan monks present.
Upon 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 a 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 dissipated, a huge, tall and somewhat dilapidated 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 a ninth-level golden elixir monk may not be able to catch up with him when he is running at full speed.
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 his movements were fast, before he could fly very far, a white light suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him.
Before the man 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 also 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 took the following "Qingyang Sect" monks and turned into rays of light to head towards the palace. It flew over.
"Walk."
After the "Qingyang Sect" set off, the other monks from the Nascent Soul Sect followed them and flew quickly towards the direction of the main hall.
It was not until all the monks from the six major sects left that the casual cultivators in the surrounding area who had just been shocked by Xiao Haoran began to turn into rays of light and rush towards the "Wind and Thunder Palace" in the distance in small groups. (End of chapter)
