The place where the two of them were standing at the moment was in the middle of a mountain range, sandwiched between two towering peaks.
It was already dark, and the moon had not yet risen.
The mountain col that should have been dark was now filled with rays of light.
The gorgeous rays of light not only illuminated the two of them, but the entire northern foothills of the mountain range, as well as the land in the north and the vegetation growing on the earth, were shrouded in the rays of light. Everything on the earth seemed to be covered with a layer of brocade.
This is not the sunset, the glow comes from the direction they are looking.
Large tracts of colorful auspicious clouds are floating in the sky, covering an extremely wide area, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
The auspicious clouds are not static, they are always moving, but they will never leave that area.
Thick clouds cover the surrounding areas, and the earth, mountains, and living things are invisible.
The strange light emanates from the depths of the auspicious clouds, transmits the auspicious clouds, and becomes colorful and radiant.
There seems to be a sun that never sets inside, and the strange light shines in all directions at all times, no matter day or night, forever.
It is always daytime in this area. Even if the bright moon rises, under the reflection of the glow, with the eyes of a monk, he can only barely see the faint outline.
The glow was so bright that it was almost blinding. They were still more than ten miles away from the auspicious clouds. Their whole bodies were bathed in the glow, and their figures seemed a little blurry.
However, the glow will not harm the creatures here, and the vegetation nearby is even more lush than elsewhere.
Some ferocious beasts with photophilic nature will also be attracted by the glow and gather nearby.
However, there was silence around the two of them at this moment.
The surroundings of Xiangyun were so quiet that it was almost deathly silent.
The reason is that not long ago, the depths of Xiangyun continued to vibrate, and the fluctuations that came out triggered the instinctive fear of living beings, causing them to flee in haste.
The group of beasts Qin Sang and the others encountered were the spirit beasts that escaped from here.
Similar situations are not uncommon. The depths of Xiangyun are very unstable, and vibrations occur every once in a while. After stabilization, the vicious beasts will gather again.
The auspicious clouds at this moment are peaceful.
The dark-skinned weirdo stared into the depths of the auspicious clouds, his eyes glowing with a strange look, as if he was operating some kind of spiritual power.
He saw some specious shadows in the auspicious clouds. It seemed that there were immortal palaces, beautiful buildings and jade buildings, as well as the vast sea of stars and the nine-curved Milky Way. They were changing endlessly with the rise and fall of the clouds.
"Why is there such a place in Niyuan?"
The dark-skinned weirdo asked the doubts in his heart.
Entering Niyuan, there is only one feeling, which is desolation!
In ordinary people's perception, Nie is supposed to be an uncivilized place, but it has such a shocking sight that is obviously not naturally formed.
"Look there," Jiutian Jinque Censor raised his hand and pointed at the phantom of the palace that just flashed, "Does it feel familiar?"
"familiar?"
The dark-skinned weirdo frowned, and scenes flashed through his mind.
He followed Jiutian Jinque Yushi to visit several Taoist sects. Some palaces were comparable to the grand scenes of the Immortal Family, but in terms of momentum, they were worse than Xuying.
Could it be...
The dark-skinned weirdo couldn't help but be surprised, "Zhitan?"
The Censor of Jiutian Jinque nodded lightly, "That's right! According to ancient records, this was originally Gu Sanji's governance altar."
Zhitan is the core of the first government, and the Zhitan of Nakamoji and Shiraishiji are also the cardinals of the two houses of Taoism.
"Is this the altar of governance? How old was Gu Sanji before?" The dark-skinned weirdo was shocked.
Today's Gu Sanji is the largest among the four governments in the world.
The dark-skinned weirdo once heard the Jiutian Jinque Censor mention that the Zhitan altar not only conferred urns, but also enshrined a Taoist artifact called the Du Gong Seal.
The two houses of Daomen respectively hold the Zhongmao Zhidu Gong Seal and the Baishi Zhidu Gong Seal.
As for the power of Zhitan and Du Gong Seal, the dark-skinned weirdo didn't get the answer. Maybe the Censor of Jiutian Jinque didn't know everything.
It can be affirmed that the governance of the altar is the foundation of this governance and is located at the center of this governance.
The monks who have been ordained can practice with peace of mind and have something to do with the Zhiyuan. The great master cannot conceal his aura when he enters the evil world. It is said that it is because he is too far away from the Zhiyuan.
But this place is still so far away from the northern border of Gu Sanji. After all, how vast was Gu Sanji?
The rest of the sandwiches combined are not as good as Goo Sanji.
Jiutian Jinque Yushi flicked out a golden light with his fingers, turning into a golden mirror in front of him, showing the scene on the edge of the auspicious clouds. "It is recorded in the Taoist classics that Ju Shanzhi was once the first of the four rulers, until the altar was destroyed by an earth-shattering battle."
, completely in decline. You see..."
As he spoke, Jiutian Jinque Yushi changed the scene in the mirror to shine on the auspicious clouds. The scene in the depths of the auspicious clouds was reflected in the mirror. He clicked a few times casually with his fingers and said, "The shadows of these mountain peaks and rivers may be illusions, or they may be illusions."
It may really exist, but it is definitely not the mountains and rivers that the world knows, but is transformed by magical powers and Taoism. Pindao has gone deep into the Gushan Zhi altar many times, and once saw the intersection of two galaxies transformed by magical powers. We are still in a stalemate.
After paying homage to him, he retreated silently. If the two galaxies were touched, Fellow Daoist Mo might not be able to see Pindao again."
The Censor of Jiutian Jinque laughed at himself.
Our ancestors fought great battles, but their supernatural powers still remain to this day.
The Imperial Envoy of Jiutian Jinque is in the late stage of Dongxuan Realm, only one step away from the Great Master, but he admits that he cannot even save his life.
"The battle of the true king? Or...the heavenly master?" The dark-skinned weirdo was shocked and inexplicable.
The great master of the Taoist court cannot be seen in the political arena, and the true king and the heavenly master seem to be just legends.
The scene of Ju Shanzhi Altar shows that at least in ancient times, there were true kings and heavenly masters in this realm.
Shaking his head, Jiutian Jinque Yushi said: "It's enough for Taoist friend Mo to know that it is very dangerous inside. There are ancient powerful magical powers, as well as folding and shattering spaces. For countless years, every time the auspicious clouds tremble, it is because of each other.
Adjustments are made in time to maintain a stable but fragile balance. Because the great master cannot restrain himself, it will cause qi vibrations, so he dare not enter the Jushanzhi altar. We must be more careful. Xiangyun is better outside, and enters the Jushanzhi altar.
Deep inside the altar, there is a danger of eternal disaster!"
With today's cultivation level, the dark-skinned weirdo naturally understands the principle of caution.
He looked solemn and asked: "Are we going into the depths of Gushanji Altar this time?"
Jiutian Jinque Censor said 'hmm', "According to Taoist Friend Mo's description, the scene you saw before you fell into coma was somewhat similar to the scene deep in Jushan's Zhitan. I suspect that you fell into Jushan when you broke through the boundary.
Sanji Altar was thrown out of it for some reason. After all, there are countless eternal cracks inside, which may be directly connected to other realms. Moreover, as far as I know, before I found my Taoist friend, there was turmoil in the depths of Xiangyun.
It was more intense than previous records and lasted for a long time.”
Knowing the origin of Xiangyun, and then listening to Jiutian Jinque Yushi talking about this, the dark-skinned weirdo couldn't help but feel scared.
When he broke through the boundary, he suffered a terrible impact and fell unconscious on the spot. When he regained consciousness, he found that he had been rescued by the Censor of the Nine Heavens Golden Palace.
Gu Sanzhidan is surrounded by dangers. When he is unconscious, any disturbance can easily crush him.
He was thrown out of the political arena, and although he was seriously injured, he had to be said to be extremely lucky.
Thinking of this, the dark-skinned weirdo Wei Wei sighed, "I still remember some fragments, all of which are bizarre pictures. If I find that place, I should be able to remember them."
As long as you find the place in your memory, you can hope to find the door to the two worlds.
Not only did he want to leave, the Censor of Jiutian Jinque was also very interested in it.
"It's a pity that Pindao sent so many letters and couldn't find the whereabouts of Taoist Friend Mo's companion. Since she is in better condition than Taoist Friend, she may not be in a coma and walked out of the Jushan Temple on her own... There is no need to rush for success.
This time, I mainly focus on exploring the plot of Guifang Kingdom. If I have free time, I will explore the road. I will be fully prepared in the future and then explore with all my strength. Of course, it is best to kill two birds with one stone..."
Just as he was speaking, the Censor of Jiutian Jinque suddenly paused and said softly, "Someone has arrived."
The picture on the mirror moved quickly, reflecting another valley.
The valley is covered with grass, which is as lush as a small tree, but there are no people in it.
Seeing this scene, Jiutian Jinque Yushi praised loudly: "The concealment method is good! It's a coincidence that the auspicious clouds have such a wide range, but they happened to pass nearby. Even further away, Pindao's sky view talisman couldn't illuminate them.
."
As he spoke, Jiutian Jinque Censor pressed his finger on the center of the golden mirror, causing ripples to appear on the surface of the mirror, and then four blurry figures emerged.
The four of them were hiding among the grass, admiring the auspicious clouds and the wonderful scenery.
They stayed where they were, seeming to be discussing something.
"Four of us should be able to cause some trouble to Guifang Country..."
Jiutian Jinque Yushi nodded with satisfaction.
Inside the Jushanji Altar there are treasures left over from the ancient wars, and there are also people with unlucky luck who received great inheritances left by great powers before they died.
However, after countless years of exploration by Taoist courts and demons, there are very few treasures left. Even if there are fish that slip through the net, they are located in extremely dangerous places and are impossible for ordinary people to obtain.
Returned without success again and again.
Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer monks entering the Gushan Temple.
At this time, four immortal Dongxuan people appeared. They must have been summoned by the Taoist sect to explore the way for them.
Using a magic talisman to spy from a distance, Jiutian Jinque Yushi was also worried about being noticed by the other party, so he did not activate the power of the talisman to the extreme. Moreover, he recognized Master Youhuang among the four.
The other three people were traveling with Master Youhuang, and they must be about the same strength.
The Censor of Jiutian Jinque waved his hand to wipe away the golden mirror, and then played several spiritual talismans one after another, arranged the talisman array, and prepared for the next plan, but did not notice the strange behavior of the people around him.
The moment he saw the four people in the mirror, the dark-skinned weirdo's eyes suddenly froze, staring at one of the four people.
This man stood at the front of the four people. He said nothing while the others were discussing. He flexed his hands and was thinking about something.
At this time, the man seemed to feel something and suddenly raised his head.
It was also at this time that the Censor of Jiutian Jinque removed the Sky View Talisman.
The mirror dispersed, but the blurry face was firmly reflected in the heart of the dark-skinned weirdo, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"How could it be him! Coincidence? Or..."
"Could it be him that time he ascended to heaven?"
The dark-skinned weirdo was filled with turmoil, but his expression did not change at all.
Glancing at the busy Jiutian Jinque Censor, the dark-skinned weirdo remained silent and stood aside quietly.
…
In another valley.
The four of Qin and Sang passed through layers of beast tides and arrived at the last mountain range close to their target, hiding in an uninhabited valley.
"This is where it is," Master Youhuang pointed at Xiangyun with a look of nostalgia on his face, "When I first broke through the Cave Mysterious Realm, out of curiosity, I went in-depth exploration with other Taoist friends and saw shocking scenes."
"I have never heard fellow Taoists mention it before," Master Gu Yun asked curiously, "Have you entered the depths of Xiangyun? I only wandered around the periphery and returned empty-handed. Have you ever obtained the ancient treasures?"
Master Youhuang shook his head and sneered, "There are no treasures left by ancient cultivation. There are countless experts from Taoist Court and Guifang Kingdom. How can it be our turn? The poor Taoist is just here to gain experience and inspire his own desire to seek the Tao."
"That's right." Master Guyun turned to look at the sword-wielding master, "Will those demon princes enter the depths of Xiangyun? If they encounter them inside, it will be difficult to guarantee safety."
The sword-wielding master has been observing the auspicious clouds on the horizon.
The clouds are unpredictable.
He waited and watched for a while and said: "The clouds are not stable now, so it is not the best time to enter. When the clouds stabilize, there will be some scenes similar to cloud trails on the three sides except the north. The positions of the cloud trails are different each time, but they will all point to the same place."
The place is considered the boundary between inside and outside, and the scope is very wide. The demon lord was active in that place before, so we will search nearby first, and attack the lone demon directly. If nothing is gained, we will make a plan based on the situation. "
Master Youhuang nodded in agreement, "It's not that life is in danger everywhere in the depths of Xiangyun. Instead, it gradually changes as you go deeper. Stop when you sense danger. You can wait for the demon to return and attack it unprepared."
Several people discussed it with each other.
Qin Sang seldom spoke, and was devoted to two tasks. While listening to their exchanges, he also meditated on "The Seal of the Seven Masters of Buddha".
In the previous battle, he continued to use two kinds of seals, and gradually understood some mysteries.
At this time, Qin Sang suddenly raised his head, feeling that the glow was getting more dazzling and the waves were surging deep in the auspicious clouds.
"The auspicious clouds are about to shake again. Let's take the opportunity to enter the auspicious clouds and look for the cloud path," the sword-wielding master said solemnly.
Everyone nodded.
They are only more than ten miles away from Xiangyun. For immortal cultivators, this distance is negligible, but no one knows whether the demon will leave a sentry somewhere.
With the cover of the auspicious clouds, most prying eyes should be blocked.
'boom!'
The sea of clouds generated waves and surged in all directions, but it did not expand too far. It seemed as if it encountered an invisible wall and began to shrink again.
When the clouds change, the glow becomes so dazzling that ordinary people will go blind just by looking at it!
The four of them seemed to be in front of the sun, shining thousands of miles away!
Master Zhijian and Master Youhuang each offered hidden secret treasures to cover the four of them, while Master Qin Sang and Master Guyun restrained their auras.
The four of them rushed out of the valley, quickly passed through the grass and trees, and in the blink of an eye crossed the plain in the middle and entered the range of Xiangyun.
The rays of light in the auspicious clouds were even more intense, and everyone used their spiritual power to protect their eyes, but their field of vision was actually very narrow.
Qin Sang was not among them. Tianmudie was ordered to be on the alert during the journey, but no other people were found.
"I don't know if the turmoil in the auspicious clouds is a coincidence or caused by demons. Let's wait a little longer and wait for the cloud path to appear before setting off," the sword-wielding master said.
The four of them nodded silently and followed the sword-wielding master deep into Xiangyun. They stopped soon and waited in place.
After a while, the shock calmed down from the inside out, and the glow gradually faded. After waiting for a while, a cloud path happened to be formed in front of them.
