Liang Yan looked at the giant man who suddenly appeared and was not surprised.
This person also had a relationship with him, but it was the corpse path saint Wei Wenxiang whom he met when he participated in the Xuanyuan Treasure Battle!
The corpse path can also become a saint. Ordinary monks refine corpses into gold, silver, copper and iron. The higher level is the immortal bones and the thousand-year journey. Only by cultivating the "thousand-year journey" can one transcend life and death and become immortal.
Wei Wenxiang also saw Liang Yan and nodded slightly to him without saying anything else.
"Don't worry, the 'Twelve Evils of Losing Wealth' have been prepared and are just waiting for the order from fellow Taoist." The saint surnamed Zhong replied.
Sanxiaozi also smiled and said: "Don't worry, old drunkard, he is always the most reliable! The 'Zuili Qiankun' is in the southeast and can be activated in a moment!"
"good!"
Wei Wenxiang nodded with satisfaction and added: "I have arranged the 'Corpse God Seal' below, which can be activated at any time. Now I just wait for the ugly time to come, and then we can gather the strength of the three of us to break through the 'Netherworld Barrier'
'."
"There's still a quarter of an hour left." Wu Nian said calmly.
Several saints seemed to have made an agreement a long time ago. No need to say anything at this time, they each sat cross-legged and waited quietly for the ugly moment to come.
Liang Yan was confused and looked at Wu Nian beside him.
"Senior, I still have time now, can you help me clarify my doubts for this junior?"
"Ask." Wu Nian said softly.
"Where is this place? Is this where my master is being imprisoned?"
"This mountain is called 'Youdu Mountain'. There is a layer of netherworld barrier below. After passing through the barrier, you will find the famous Fengdu City!"
"Fengdu City? 'Fengdu City', one of the twelve cities in the Seven Mountains?!"
"Not bad!" Wu Nian nodded.
"Could it be that Fengdu City, like Luotian Mountain, was founded by Emperor Zang Tian?" Liang Yan asked with a surprised look on his face.
"That's not true. The city lord of Fengdu City disappeared tens of thousands of years ago. Later, Emperor Burial Tian gained great power and captured this place. Most of the monks in the city defected to Tiangong City. Only a few people were unwilling to join and rebelled.
The city has left."
After hearing this, Liang Yan understood in his heart and said slowly: "So, the former 'Fengdu City' has become the current 'Ghost Prison'?"
"That's right." Wu Nian nodded and said, "The Burial Emperor built Fengdu City into a prison and used the unique 'death energy' here to imprison prisoners. Even saints were imprisoned here."
"Including my master?"
"Yes."
"Are we ready to break the barrier now and enter the ghost prison?" Liang Yan asked eagerly.
Wu Nian smiled slightly: "It's not accurate to say that you were the one who entered the Ghost Prison alone."
"Me?" Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, "Are there no saints sitting in the ghost prison?"
"Of course!"
Wu Nian said lightly: "There are a large number of monks imprisoned in Fengdu City, including the mountain lords of Wanshou, Shenxiao, and the Three Mountains of Heavenly Demons. Emperor Burying Heaven must have sent heavy troops to guard him! According to my investigation, among the four saints of Tiangong, Western Soul Saint Lord and
All the Northern Demon Saint Lords are stationed here."
"Two great saints are sitting here!" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Senior, it's not that I'm afraid of moving forward, it's just that in front of the saints, my moral deeds are insignificant, and my sacrifice will be in vain if I go in."
"rest assured!"
Wu Nian said calmly: "I will definitely not let you face the saint directly. When the netherworld barrier is broken, Taoist friend Wei Wenxiang and I will attack the city with all our strength and lure out the two saints, the soul and the demon. At that time, you can sneak into the ghost prison and see the opportunity.
Act!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Wenxiang, who was not far away, also spoke: "The Nether Barrier is the formation hub of Fengdu City. Once the barrier is broken, the power of the restriction inside will be greatly reduced. With your strength, I believe it is enough to deal with it.
.”
"The two seniors really think highly of me!"
Liang Yan smiled, then changed his mind and asked, "Don't we have four saints?"
"Sanxiaozi and fellow Taoist Zhongli are not from the Antarctic Immortal Continent. They will not take action directly. Being able to help break the barrier is already a huge favor."
"Can't people who are not from Antarctic Fairy Continent take action?" Liang Yan looked confused.
Wu Nian didn't answer this time, just sighed softly.
At this moment, Wei Wenxiang spoke again: "Boy, if we had other choices, we wouldn't have brought you here. Only you can do this task, because ordinary people can't enter Fengdu City, but you
It's different. You are a living dead, not affected by Fengdu's death energy, and can go down to the lowest level of the ghost prison."
"I see"
Liang Yan now understood why he was asked to perform this task.
Although Fengdu City is full of dangers, he will not refuse as long as he thinks that the angry monk is also imprisoned.
Liang Yan didn't hesitate at all, and said with a solemn expression: "Seniors, don't worry, as long as we can rescue Master, I will break through even if it is a dragon's pond or a tiger's den!"
"good!"
Wei Wenxiang nodded, with a look of approval in her eyes.
"Under the saint, your scheming and strength are first-class, but what you have to face this time is the entire Fengdu City. There are tens of thousands of ghost cultivators in it, many of whom are very powerful. Even if you have great swordsmanship, you will never be able to do anything.
Don’t do it forcefully!”
Having said this, he turned his eyes and looked at Zhongli who was not far away.
"Friend Zhong Dao, I heard that you still have an 'Imperial Water Pill' in your hand? I wonder if I can give up my love?"
"how?"
Zhong Li raised his brows and said with a half-smile: "The idea has come to me? You are also the president of the Chamber of Commerce after all. You should know that nothing is free in the world, right?"
"Of course, it's all a transaction."
Wei Wenxiang chuckled lightly, moved her lips slightly, and switched to voice communication.
The two of them didn't know what they said. A moment later, Zhongli smiled broadly and took out a small white jade bottle from his sleeve.
"Boy, you're in luck, go on!"
After saying that, the small white jade bottle rose into the air and was in front of Liang Yan in a blink of an eye.
Liang Yan reached out to take the jade bottle and glanced at the two saints.
He was not a fool. Of course he knew that the two of them had made a deal secretly. Wei Wenxiang must have promised some reward before Zhongli gave him the "Imperial Water Pill".
"What's so magical about this elixir?"
Liang Yan opened the bottle, and a strong medicinal fragrance hit his nostrils. He had an illusion for no reason, as if he was a monk like Lu Qinghe, who could control thousands of true waters with a single thought!
I just heard Wei Wenxiang say: "'Chi Shui Dan' can help you control Luo Shui in a short period of time. Although you can't use Luo Shui to cast any mysterious spells, you can pour it out in one go, which can be regarded as a big killer!"
"Um?"
Liang Yan's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
He was a little strange, how could he know that the Luo Shen bottle was in his hand before he smelled the fragrance?
But as soon as his thoughts changed, he immediately figured out the cause and effect. This Luoshen bottle was set up by Linghu Bai to let himself get it. It must be a part of the plan. It was most likely to prepare for the prison robbery, so it is not surprising that Wu Wenxiang knew it.
"Understood."
The surprise in Liang Yan's eyes flashed away, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, senior, for the pill."
Wei Wenxiang shook his head: "No need to thank me, remember, the 'Imperial Water Pill' can only last for a quarter of an hour if swallowed, so it must be used at the critical moment!"
"good!"
Liang Yan put the stopper on the bottle and put the vial into his sleeve.
After Wu Nian and Wei Wen Xiang's answers, he already had a general understanding of this operation.
Although there are four saints in front of them, Sanxiaozi and Zhongli will not participate in the rescue. They will only help them break the barrier outside Fengdu City. As for Weiwenxiang and Wunian, they have to deal with the souls guarding the "Ghost Prison".
, the two demon saints.
In other words, I have to sneak into Fengdu City alone!
This is a very risky matter. Even if Liang Yan's current strength is comparable to that of Ya Sheng, how many masters are there in Fengdu City? How many traps and formation restrictions are there? These are all unknown.
It is simply unheard of for one person to fight against a city!
However, there was no hint of retreat in Liang Yan's eyes. He had countless reasons not to go to the ghost prison, but there was one reason why he had to go.
"Master, I'm here!"
Liang Yan muttered silently in his heart, his eyes extremely firm.
At this moment, Sun Qianli came over and said to him: "Brother Liang, with all due respect, your task this time is very difficult. If you go to the ghost prison alone, the chance of survival is probably less than 10%."
"I know." Liang Yan nodded, his expression unwavering.
Sun Qianli sighed: "We have a close relationship. We have known each other since the Qi refining period, and we have cooperated many times before. Sun couldn't bear to see you die, but I have a treasure that I can give you. In critical moments, I can
Use it to get out of trouble.”
After hearing this, Liang Yan did not ask what kind of treasure it was, but instead showed a half-smiling look.
"Fellow Daoist Sun, what you just said was 'can be given away', which means that if you want to get this treasure, you have to pay something."
"Haha, Brother Liang is really smart. I am from the Chamber of Commerce. Anything can be used as a bargaining chip."
When Sun Qianli said this, he smiled slightly: "As long as you promise me to leave Antarctic Fairy Continent with me, I will not only give you the treasure, but I will also wait here for you to come out."
"Leave Antarctica?"
Liang Yan frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Now that the entire Antarctic Immortal Continent is under the shadow of Emperor Burial's magic circle, how do you get out?"
Sun Qianli smiled and said: "Although Emperor Burial has great power, he has not yet become an ancestor. There is someone outside the Antarctic Fairy Continent who can take me out, so I just ask you: Are you willing to go with me?"
After hearing this, Liang Yan felt a little surprised. He subconsciously looked at Wu Nian and Wei Wen Xiang, but saw that the two saints were meditating on the same spot, looking like they didn't want to pay attention.
Sun Qianli added: "Now that the fate of the Antarctic Immortal Continent is in chaos, the heavens are ruthless, and hundreds of millions of creatures are about to turn into powder. Rather than being involved in this bloody storm, it is better to come with me and leave this place of right and wrong."
Liang Yan did not answer immediately. He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Sun, why did you take me away?"
Sun Qianli smiled and said: "I am a businessman and I have seen your potential, so I am willing to bet on you. I hope you can join my chamber of commerce and help me."
“Sounds very moving”
Liang Yan's face was calm and he said leisurely: "It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, especially for monks! The battle between the avenues has always been cruel, and everyone has to face various choices. If you make the wrong move, you will suffer thousands of consequences.
Years of hard work have all come to nothing.”
"exactly!"
Sun Qianli nodded repeatedly: "Brother Liang has seen clearly. The so-called gentleman does not stand behind dangerous walls. Today's Antarctic Fairy Continent has become a mess. The best choice is to leave here with me."
Liang Yan laughed: "Fellow Daoist Sun, if it were me two years ago, I would have left you, but now I"
Having said this, his eyes suddenly became a little wandering, and that magnificent back figure appeared in his mind again.
Wearing a white robe, spotless!
Gradually, his eyes focused again, and the smile on his face remained.
"I'm sorry, I can't bear the kindness of Fellow Daoist Sun."
When Sun Qianli received his negative reply, he was surprised and looked puzzled: "Brother Liang, Emperor Burial has been setting up the Antarctic Immortal Continent for many years, and is about to launch a major battle. You staying in the Antarctic Immortal Continent won't change anything at all.
, it will only cost you your own life! As you can see, he is willing to leave here with me. Isn't your heart for the Tao not as firm as his?"
After hearing this, Liang Yan put away the smile on his face and said leisurely: "Brother Sun, I once thought that my heart towards the Tao was extremely firm, but lately I have been thinking about it, what is the 'Tao' of my heart towards the Tao?
Is it the illusory avenue, or the Tao in your own heart?"
Sun Qianli was stunned by his question and could not answer.
Liang Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Brother Sun, everyone has a different view of 'Tao'. I practice hard so that I can do what I want to do without being forced by others. If it takes thousands of years
My practice has only yielded nothing but flies and dogs, so what is the use of my cultivation?"
Sun Qianli frowned and said: "When your cultivation level is high, of course you can do whatever you want, but before that, there are some things that you have to avoid."
Liang Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "There is no limit to practice. There is a way of heaven above the saints. After all, you can't do whatever you want. And there are some things that can be avoided, but there are some things that cannot be avoided. If I left the Antarctic Fairy Continent with you today, then
Just like the wish of heaven, in the end, it is still muddled, no matter how high the cultivation level is, it is no different from the walking corpse!"
After saying these words, Liang Yan suddenly felt much relieved.
Sun Qianli wanted to say something more, but Zhongli behind him said: "No need to persuade me anymore, you two are both right, but he is a sword cultivator, which is different from you."
"Elder Zhong" Sun Qianli looked confused and looked back at him.
Zhong Li smiled and said: "You are pursuing the path of 'Tiandao', while sword cultivators are pursuing the path of 'self'. They are completely opposite, and no one can convince anyone. This kid is indeed a malleable talent, but he has no destiny with us, so don't force it."
Already."
After listening to Zhongli's words, Sun Qianli finally gave up his persuasion.
He glanced at Liang Yan again and sighed: "In that case, Brother Liang, take care!"
Liang Yan bowed his hand to him: "Brother Sun, take care too! The way of heaven is not irreversible. The Lord Linghu can defy the destiny of the nine heavens with a seven-foot body, which shows that everything can still turn around. If we are destined, maybe we will meet in other places.
.”
"Maybe." Sun Qianli responded casually.
At this moment, Wei Wenxiang, who had been concentrating before, opened his eyes.
"The ugly time has come, fellow Taoists, take action!"
