Baishan, the vast lake with rippling blue waves in the boundary of the Lianshui Alliance, becomes completely noisy at night like an awakened giant beast.
This vast green lake is the foundation of Bihumen, and it is also one of the several large lakes surrounding Lianshui City.
The aura lingers in this lake all year round. Its grade is approximately between the first level and the lower level. It is rich in aquatic resources and is famous for producing many low-level delicious spiritual fish, which are also the products of surrounding sects. The main business is to make a living, and in recent hundreds of years, it has brought a steady stream of wealth and resources to Bihu Sect.
At this time, groups of monks were submerged into the lake. They used various methods to avoid the erosion of the lake.
Jiang Kui already has water-attribute spiritual roots, and she is even more at home in this place where the water spiritual energy at the bottom of the lake is particularly rich.
She led eight old monks to cast a spell and dive into the water. Following the route announced by the Bihu Gate, she slowly sank into a secret deep ditch at the bottom of the lake.
Bihu is much deeper than ordinary lakes. Jiang Kui and others sank all the way, as if they had fallen into an endless abyss.
A little over half an hour passed before they finally sank to the bottom. The long process was like a pilgrimage to the unknown.
After sinking for a long time, everyone finally sat down and looked up. There was an illusion in front of them. The illusion was incompatible with the surrounding environment, and it had obviously been cracked.
At this time, there was a beautiful female cultivator sitting cross-legged outside the entrance. Her figure was elegant and her temperament was otherworldly. Her beautiful face and peaceful demeanor made people fall in love with her.
Jiang Kui took a closer look and found that it was Nangong Meng, the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Nangong family. She was just sitting here cross-legged alone, but she exuded a powerful aura, making everyone feel awe-inspiring when they saw her.
The aura seems to be an invisible pressure, covering the entire area, making people unconsciously feel a sense of awe.
Jiang Kui calmed down, stepped forward, and saluted respectfully:
"Jiang Kui, the junior Qingyuan Sect, has met senior Nangong."
She The voice sounded particularly clear in this quiet environment, but it also contained a hint of caution.
Nangong Meng raised his eyes slightly, swept the crowd coldly, and finally landed on Jiang Kui.
"Qingyuan Sect? How many of you are here?"
Jiang Kui lowered his head slightly and replied respectfully: "Senior, I will come here with these fellow disciples. , I want to explore opportunities in this secret treasure. Although I am small and weak, I still want to give it a try."
Nangong Meng nodded slightly, his expression still cold: "There are many dangers in this secret treasure. You must think clearly and don't lose your life because of greed." Jiang Kui looked firm and saluted again: "Senior, don't worry, junior and others must be careful, and if they are in danger, they will be careful. I will make prompt decisions and never act rashly."
Nangong Meng nodded, and then said slowly: "In that case, you can go in. I hope your dreams will come true."
Nangong Meng. After saying that, just lift it upOpen a corner of the illusion formation and let everyone in.
Then the next group of monks came. Nangong Meng just glanced at them and didn't bother to talk nonsense. He interrupted the introduction with a wave of his hand and drove them in.
Inside the illusion formation is a separated space. There are already many monks there. Most of them are in groups of three to five. Their cultivation levels are also different, but judging from their temperament, they should all be from the big sect. Origin.
These people gathered around a jade portal on the ground, pointing and talking, with different expressions.
And here, there is another Nascent Soul monk floating in mid-air to monitor everyone.
This man's white hair is fluttering like snow silk, his face is wrinkled like the ravines of time, his sparse and pale eyebrows are drooped, his eyes are cloudy but occasionally shining, and his dark robe is slightly swinging, and he can be seen above. Cloud logo.
He floated quietly, like a silent mountain peak, his gaze swept over everyone, and those who were watched felt tense.
This man's eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and no one dared to move rashly. They occasionally frowned, as if they were dissatisfied with certain actions. His presence was like a huge shadow, making the atmosphere in the scene a little more tense and depressing.
Seeing this person, Jiang Kui's body trembled slightly. This movement could not be hidden from this Nascent Soul. He glanced over and paid a little more attention to the Qingyuan Sect monks, but it was only Limiting it to this, after all, two foundation-building monks and seven Qi practitioners are not worth mentioning at all.
Jiang Kui’s trembling was also regarded as nervousness when meeting the Nascent Soul cultivator.
After a few breaths, a monk came to ask Jiang Kui's identity, then took out the token to compare, and finally led everyone from the Qingyuan Sect to the designated location.
At this moment, the portal that many monks were watching was carved from a complete piece of raw jade, in the shape of a circle about two feet in diameter, with a complete star map carved all over it.
The star map is not very strange, but the carving is a superb skill. There is no mistake in the whole star map, and it is beautiful.
A quick calculation shows that this picture corresponds to the starry sky at midnight today. No wonder the opening time can be measured so accurately.
As time slowly passed, the number of monks who came to this magic array continued to flow in like a tide, and the number of them increased.
Fortunately, the area is quite vast, and there are Nascent Soul monks above to monitor and suppress it. This makes the more than a thousand monks present very quiet and do not dare to cause trouble easily.
Now the first echelon of monks has taken shape. It is composed of Qiyun, Yushou, Heifenggu, Tianlimen and other sects in this world. There are about hundreds of people, mainly Jindan monks. .
They all have a calm aura, and their eyes reveal confidence and pride.
However, although they are all from famous sects, the monks who are willing to explore here are probably not true disciples of various sects.
Because these true disciples usually do not lack this resource, they have better opportunities and cultivation resources, and there is no need to risk coming here.
It is worth mentioning that this team of only a hundred people is divided into four or five camps.
There was tension between some camps, and the atmosphere was so tense that it seemed like a fight was about to break out at any time.Come.
But they were worried about the Qi Yun Nascent Soul monk above them, so they all tolerated each other and did not dare to act rashly.
Jiang Kui hid in the corner, mixed in with the chaotic team of hundreds of people.
Like most people, she was watching the subtle atmosphere of the first echelon. A large number of disciples were fighting each other. This could not be seen easily, but now there was this opportunity, such a good show, for everyone to see. It must be said that this trip is worthwhile.
The relationship between the Black Wind Valley and the Confucian cultivators of Tianli Sect was full of murderous intent. The eyes of both sides met, as if they could spark fire.
Qi Yun and Yushoumen are far apart, and there seems to be an irresolvable conflict between them. ????And the Black Wind Valley and the Beast Control Sect are very close, and the atmosphere is a little subtle. The Qinglian Sword Sect doesn't care about anyone, but the eyes looking at the monk Qi Yun are a little more angry. I don't know what's in it. Why.
The monks from Nanlin Temple were in the middle of the team. There were only two of them, but the peaceful aura they exuded completely separated them from everyone else.
They closed their eyes tightly and recited the Dharma, without offending anyone, as if they were outside the world.
In addition, there are some individual monks who either blend in or stand alone in a corner. The small team reflects the undercurrent among the large forces in this world.
At this time, Chu Shenchang and Chu Shen also came here at the right time. These two people were Qi Yun monks, so they were naturally in the first echelon. As soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of many people. .
The Nascent Soul cultivator above saw Chu Shen Cang arriving so late, frowned slightly, and said: "Shen Cang, you still have this temper, hurry up and join the queue."
Chu Shenchang rarely showed a smile when facing this Nascent Soul:
"Uncle Jiang, as the saying goes, it is better to come early than to come by chance. I am not pinching the spots so that I can be in the fullest state. Welcome to this exploration of the secret treasure."
Chu Shenchang bowed slightly as he spoke, with a hint of contentment in his eyes.
Uncle Jiang snorted, "You will make excuses, don't waste any more time and return to your position as soon as possible."
Chu Shenchang quickly responded: "Yes, Master Uncle."
After that, he and Chu Shen walked towards the first echelon. Along the way, many monks cast curious or apprehensive glances.
Chu Shenchang looked calm, as if he didn't care about these glances, while Chu Shen lowered his head slightly and followed Chu Shenchang silently, thinking about something secretly in his heart.
In this treasure hunt, as a landowner, even the important figures in Shuimen were missing, so he probably had no shame to participate.
Among the Five Elements Alliance, those from the Houtu Alliance and the Lihuo Alliance are all dying old people without a single golden elixir.
Only the Lingmu League and the Ruijin League sent golden elixir cultivators to lead the team. Jiang Kui was in the team, together with Lingmu League Chaixie, and the early golden elixir veteran cultivators sent by the Ruijin League. , nodded kindly and received a response.
Among the teams, another major force in Baishan, He Huanzong, simply did not send anyone. The team of Fantasy Sword Alliance and Baishan Sword Sect was composed of aThe Golden elixir monk takes the lead and is almost at the bottom in terms of strength.
As for the Dan League, after years of changes, it was about to be kicked out of one of the top ten forces in Baishan, and no one came to join in the fun this time.
So this treasure hunt, faced with the complete retreat of the local forces in Baishan, really gave the monks in other realms the illusion that they were still in Qiyun.
As the managers of this grand event, the Nangong family naturally received the best treatment. At present, in addition to the Nascent Soul monk Nangong Meng, there are seven people from Guangjindan and more than 40 Foundation Establishment monks. Moreover, it is an instant choice for people of all ages, and its strength is extremely terrifying.
Then there is the Jiang family. As the only Yuan Ying who joins hands with the Nangong family to control the situation here, this time the Jiang family, in addition to the only Yuan Ying ancestor Jiang Huan, also has five Jin. Dan, twenty foundation-building monks, almost all the life and death of the entire clan depended on this bunk.
Beside the Jiang family’s team was the protagonist who was stirring up the storm at this time, Bihumen.
Led by Bi Junwei, a monk in the middle stage of Jindan, the sect leader, assisted by Bi Junwei, a monk in the early stage of Jindan, the elder, and Qing Wanxuan, a Jindan guest recruited, the three Jindan were lined up in a row, and the momentum was not surprising. Small.
They are very close to Qi Yun and the monks of the Jiang family. It is obvious that they have an unusual relationship. They probably used this matter to get into the lap of the Jiang family, which is why they are so stubborn and have an alliance with their original master. Steel, and Lian Shuimeng probably knew themselves in front of the Jiang family, so they didn't show up to avoid humiliating themselves.
The midnight hour came soon, and the star map showed a strange phenomenon as expected. One by one, stars in the star map were glowing from the inside out. The fire was extremely bright at first. Faintly, flickering like a firefly in the darkness.
But soon, these firelights seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force and began to gradually become brighter. At this time, they were beating lightly, like smart elves, full of vitality and vitality.
Those flames spread slowly, like a smart fire snake swimming on the star map. Their trajectory seemed irregular, but they seemed to follow some mysterious law.
As the fire spread, the faint light gradually connected into one piece, like a gorgeous fire net, covering the entire star map. Finally, the fire turned into a raging fire, blazing. The temperature seemed to burn the air.
The fire mercilessly devoured the whole piece of green and white jade. The originally warm and smooth jade gradually lost its luster under the burning of the fire. The flames were like hungry beasts, constantly eroding Uncut jade, until it is burned completely, leaving only nothingness.
The fire melted quickly and disappeared without a trace like a dream. The speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to react, as if the raging fire just now was just an illusory dream and never really happened. Appeared generally.
At this time, the entrance to the secret corridor slowly emerged. The steps inside were paved with sapphire like the four walls. The sapphire exuded a warm luster, like a quiet lake.
Only from the entrance of the cave, there are some faceless immortals in white painted on the walls of the corridor. The expressions and movements of each immortal are lifelike, as if they could walk out of the painted wall at any time.
In the depths of the corridor, there was a faint gleam of light. The light was weak and mysterious, as if it was projected from the distant sky.
When the crowd saw this, they became restless and turned their attention to the two Nascent Soul ancestors, Nangong Meng and Jiang Huan, who were occupying the entrance.
Nangong Meng and Jiang Huan looked at each other, and then announced the start of the expedition. At this time, the monks in the first echelon could no longer hold back, and they all showed their magical powers and escaped into it.
The monks from the Nangong family and the Jiang family came out on top and entered immediately. Only the two Nascent Souls were still sitting here, because the secret could not accommodate the entry of the Nascent Soul monks.
At midnight, it was finally the turn of Jiang Kui and the others. They couldn't wait, and their hearts were full of nervousness and excitement.
Jiang Kui took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and then led the people of Qingyuan Sect slowly towards the entrance of the corridor.
There is a mysterious atmosphere permeating the passage, and the faint light makes people feel uneasy and curious.
Not long after just walking along the passage, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up, as if they had stepped from a narrow world into a vast world.
They poured into a hall, which was so majestic that people were amazed.
The mural on the top of the hall is also a starry sky and immortals. The gorgeous colors and lifelike pictures seem to tell ancient legends.
However, no one is interested in this mural at this moment, because there are dozens of cave entrances on all sides, and they are all densely packed with forks.
Those forked roads are like a maze, dazzling. Many people have chosen one of them to explore, and their figures disappeared into the darkness, as if they were swallowed by the unknown world.
At this time, the first point of disagreement in the team appeared. Everyone had their own plans for which path to choose.
