At three o'clock in the hour of Hai, there is the mountain behind the Five Elements Sect.

Although it was already dark at this time, in the dense forest at the back of the mountain, lights were flashing and shouts were heard from time to time, causing birds and animals to scatter.

"Junior Brother Luo~?"

"Junior Brother Luo, where are you?"

At this moment, Zhang Wu held a torch in one hand and a long sword in the other. He was waving the thorns from time to time and searching forward. At this moment, a light blue figure suddenly appeared in front of him! The long sword in the man's hand was flashing with ice crystals.

Like a clear blue light.

Zhang Wu immediately exclaimed: "Senior Sister Lu!"

Seeing that Senior Sister Lu also came to look for Luo Yu, he looked at Lu Bingning expectantly. When he saw the worried look in Senior Sister Lu's eyes, Zhang Wu lowered his head and sighed.

Lu Binning didn't seem to notice Zhang Wu's look, but still asked with expectation: "Junior brother Zhang, have you found anything?"

Zhang Wu looked at her after hearing this, then shook his head with a sad face and blamed himself: "Senior Sister Lu... they all blame me. If I had known that Junior Brother Luo wanted to enter the back mountain, I should have stopped him today... They all blame me.

..!”

While blaming himself, he swung his sword to cut off the thorns around him.

Looking at Zhang Wu who was extremely regretful at this moment, Lu Binning didn't know what to do. At this moment, she was naturally worried about Luo Yu. You must know that Luo Yu was in danger several times, and he was always in the back mountain...

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Binning casually comforted Zhang Wu with a few words, and then the two met and went together.

After searching for a while, the two met the You family sisters again. They both said that they had not found anything at all, so the four of them had to look at each other helplessly.

But just when they were about to return, Zhang Wu, who was silent on the side, suddenly shouted: "That's right! How could I forget that?"

In the dead of night, Zhang Wu's sudden voice suddenly shocked the three women and looked at him with bewildered faces!

At this moment, Zhang Wu's eyes flashed and he said confidently: "Junior brother Luo has always wanted to escape, right? The last time he escaped was on the cliff at the back of the mountain! Maybe..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Binning rushed out, bringing with her a gust of fragrant wind, and the place where she disappeared was in the direction of the cliff. Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and then quickly followed her.

The four of them passed through the dense forest and rushed to the cliff! They saw the autumn wind blowing, the clouds and mist dispersed, but there was no trace of Luo Yu!

At this moment, Lu Binning suddenly closed her eyes slightly, holding her breath and concentrating. The three people beside her suddenly felt their consciousness trembling, and they knew that she was using their consciousness to sense the bottom of the cliff.

After a while, under the expectant gazes of Zhang Wu and others, she slowly opened her eyes, looked at the three of them, shook her head with frustration on her face and said: "My cultivation is not enough, and my consciousness cannot reach the bottom of the cliff...

."

The three of them sighed at the same time.

But at this moment, Lu Binning suddenly looked at the cliff and wondered: "There are no trees in the empty cliff, how can there be a dead tree?"

Upon hearing this, the three of them hurriedly stepped forward. Zhang Wu quickly picked up the dead wood and looked at it carefully, then said: "Looking at the uneven fractures,...it should have been caused by strong force."

"Fight?!" Upon hearing this, the You family sisters guessed in unison.

However, Zhang Wu still held the half piece of dead wood and recalled with a frown: "... When Junior Brother Luo and I were assassinated earlier, we used 'wooden sticks' to defend ourselves... And everyone in the sect,

Only Luo Yu doesn't have a sword, it's probably Junior Brother Luo..."

Zhang Wu was even more worried when he thought of the experience he and Luo Yu had with using wooden sticks to defend themselves, and he did not want to say any more.

At this time, You Xiaoxiao seemed to have discovered something, and said in surprise: "Look! There seems to be footprints on the edge of the cliff! Hey, these footprints are clear and so huge, they don't look like they belong to humans!"

With the silver light cast by the waning moon, Lu Binning leaned over and looked at the footprints on the cliff, and then exclaimed: "Look at these footprints... could they be monsters? But how can there be monsters in the back mountain!?"

Zhang Wu and You Yingying were also surprised when they suddenly heard about the monster! Although they had heard about the monster, they had never seen what the monster looked like, and they seemed a little at a loss. On the contrary, Lu Binning explored it with her hands.

Tan then looked at the footprints, which were about less than an inch thick. He then showed a solemn expression and said with certainty: "It must be a monster. Judging from the size and depth of the footprints, the size of this monster should be about one foot, and it should be about 10 feet."

A monster with great strength! Junior Brother Luo, I’m afraid he has no cultivation..."

After listening to Senior Sister Lu's resolute words, several people frowned and became even more worried. It seems that Junior Brother Luo probably fell off the cliff again...! Thinking about it, this cliff is really the nemesis of Junior Brother Luo's life...

After a moment of silence, Lu Binning suddenly raised her eyebrows and said, "My cultivation level is the highest here. I will go down the cliff to look for Junior Brother Luo. You guys should go back to the sect first to report this matter."

Shocked to hear that Senior Sister Lu wanted to take risks alone, the You family sisters were not willing to comply, so they hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade her: "Senior Sister, please don't do it. You haven't entered the Ningxing and can't fly with a sword. You'd better wait to report to the Ming Sect and ask the elders to go down the cliff to rescue you."

Not too late."

Zhang Wuyi advised: "Yes, Senior Sister Lu. You can't even reach the bottom of the cliff with your spiritual consciousness, which shows that the cliff is bottomless. Senior Sister Lu, if you continue like this, even if you are in the Immortal Stage, you will inevitably be in danger!"

At this moment, Lu Binning was sure that Luo Yu had fallen off the cliff, and was even more worried. How could he waste another half moment?

Her face showed frost, and she said coquettishly: "It's almost time now, and Junior Brother Luo's life or death is uncertain. If we wait for the elders to come, I'm afraid it will be too late! Why don't you get out of the way quickly?"

Seeing that Senior Sister Lu insisted on doing this, the three of them looked at each other in astonishment for a moment. They actually left and didn't stay, so they seemed silent for a while.

And when there was silence on the cliff, suddenly an elegant yet vigorous voice came from outside the cliff!

"Let's all go back."

Although the sound was silent, it shook the hearts of Lu Binning and others! The four of them quickly looked towards the misty clouds and mist under the moonlight outside the cliff.

Vaguely, an old man with a gray beard, wearing a gray scholar's gown, was seen coming through the air with the wind blowing! The clouds and mist rolled under his body, as if he was stepping on auspicious clouds. He took a step forward and stood beside Lu Binning and others.

in front of people.

When Lu Binning saw the visitor, she was immediately frightened, because the aura of the old man in front of her was so powerful! Just standing quietly in front of them made them feel suffocated!

When Lu Binning saw the old man clearly through the moonlight, his eyes as blue as sapphires suddenly shrank! He was so shocked that he knelt down on one knee, put his left hand on top of his left knee, and stood on the ground with a sword and pestle in his right hand in great respect.

He said: "Under Qing Ye's seat, my direct disciple Lu Binning pays homage to our ancestor."

Lu Binning's sudden appearance shocked the other three people as if they had been struck by lightning! They were so frightened that they were all broken into cold sweats.

In just a moment, the three people who woke up followed the example of Senior Sister Lu and saluted respectfully. As for Luo Yu's current situation, the three people who had a blank mind had already forgotten it!

It's no wonder that the three of them are like this. You must know that since they entered the sect, not to mention the ancestor, even the sect leader Qing Yezi has been rare to see! The ancestor is a legendary figure to them, and it is the strength of the sect.

Proof. Although the ancestors generally don’t ask about the affairs of the sect and mostly stay in seclusion. But everyone knows that they are the real heads of the sect!

At this moment, the old man in gray clothes only glanced at the four people lightly, and then nodded slightly in response. Then he left the four people who were at a loss, turned around and looked down the cliff, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Let's all go back.

."

When Zhang Wu and the others heard this, they wanted to shout "I obey" without even thinking about it. But they never thought that Senior Sister Lu next to them suddenly begged: "Ancestor, please save Junior Brother Luo. He..."

"snort!"

Suddenly, before she could finish speaking, the gray-clothed ancestor suddenly shouted!

At the same time, the four of them felt that for an instant, there seemed to be an invisible coercion coming down from the sky and suddenly sweeping across their bodies. In an instant, the four of them were tightly covered and crushed to the ground!

Lu Binning and the other four people could only feel the sound of ‘quiet...!’ that was constantly ringing, shrilling their membranes and shaking the sea of ​​​​consciousness!

At this time, the consciousness of the four people seemed to be pierced by thousands of invisible sharp swords. At the same time, the outside of their bodies seemed to be crushed by a huge mountain! Their bodies could not move at all! At this time, the cultivation level of the three Zhang and Wu people was the lowest, and their faces

Faced with the pressure of the ancestor in front of them, they were as miserable as ants shaking the sky. The three of them could not hold on for a breath before they knelt down and almost collapsed! Their veins were bulging and they were sweating like springs. You can imagine their pain.

How about the pain you endured!?

At this time, Lu Binning, who was in the middle stage of Wujin, was not much better. Although she was still struggling to hold on, from the painful expression, it was clear that there was a huge gap in strength between the two.

But even so, she still raised her head stubbornly, and the ice crystals around her body were beating continuously, flashing with azure light. The gray-clothed ancestor did not look at the other three people, but only looked at Lu Binning, who was struggling to hold on at the moment, with a flash in his eyes.

A subtle hint of appreciation.

Seeing that Lu Binning was still struggling to hold on, he scolded in a cold voice: "Why don't you retreat quickly?"

When Lu Binning heard this, his heart suddenly trembled and he said: "Ancestor...Junior Brother Luo...!"

Before she finished speaking, she saw the ancestor's majestic face suddenly condensed! Lu Binning felt that the pressure doubled in an instant! Before she could make any reaction, her vision went dark and she fainted!

At this moment, all the pressure on Zhang Wu and the others receded! Looking at Senior Sister Lu who had passed out next to them, the three of them looked at each other, their eyes full of horror. At this moment, they looked at their ancestor in awe as he moved.

I didn't dare to move, cold sweat dripped down my face, and the autumn wind blew by and brought chills to my bones!

But at this moment, a sigh sounded, and the ancestor waved his sleeves and the Cangmulg voice sounded again: "Take her back... As for Luo Yu, there is no need to ask more."

Smoke and clouds were billowing on the edge of the cliff, the waning moon was in the sky, and the autumn wind was blowing in the long robes. The gray-clothed ancestor only quietly looked at the steaming cloud sea under the cliff, rolling like a dragon...

Seeing that their ancestor had no more instructions, Zhang and Wu looked at each other and hurriedly bowed respectfully and said: "I respectfully follow my ancestor's decree. Disciple bows and retreats."

After saying that, the You family sisters quickly helped Lu Binning up, and the three of them 'escaped' towards the deep forest of the back mountain like wind.

At this time, the gray-clothed ancestor was looking up at the endless starry sky, and his originally sharp eyes gradually became deeper.

Within a moment, he stepped out of the void, and his feet spread out like ripples of golden light. His figure instantly disappeared into the clouds and mist in the void, leaving only the sound of vicissitudes of life coming slowly with the wind, echoing among the mountains of the sea of ​​clouds.
