When Ji Lanjun, Meng Jiuxiang and others walked out, Lu Feng and Xi Youmeng were nowhere to be seen.
I looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dusk.
Meng Jiuxiang signaled: "Miss, if they insist on going to Lingyan Lake, they will definitely pass through the Great Rift Valley. They may not be able to cross the boundary of the Rift Valley in time before dark. Once the sky gets dark, that area
The area is infested with poisonous insects, ferocious beasts are rampant, and the dangers are increasing. In Miss Xi's state, they will most likely not take risks, and they should find a nearby hiding place to rest, and wait until dawn before continuing on their way."
Chen Shuanghua echoed: "Not far from the boundary of the rift valley, which stretches for more than ten miles, is the ruins of the Xuanqing Palace sect. I think they will rest there."
Several people were talking at the same time.
Lu Feng and everyone in the Shadow Pavilion came to a large area of architectural ruins just as they said. Looking around, they could see scattered and ruined palaces and pavilions.
Compared with the ruins of the Holy See Sect of the Past that we passed before, the ruins in front of us are in a much better state of mess. At least we can see many pavilions that are still standing.
Thinking back to the sect's heyday, there were not as many treasures in the sect as there were in the Holy See, and there was less destruction caused by man-made looting.
With these thoughts in mind, Lu Feng hugged Xi Youmeng and walked towards the mountain gate of the ruins. He walked on the broken stone stairs that were climbing steadily. Every time he took a step, Xi Youmeng would subconsciously hug him tightly due to the shaking caused by each step.
point.
This made Lu Feng feel embarrassed again, especially when he smelled the elegant fragrance emanating from Xi Youmeng's body at close range, it made him feel uneasy and impulsive.
It seems that as the soul formation that blocked the murderous intention loosened, the blockade of the Bliss Hundred Days Powder poison was also implicated, becoming more and more unstable, and the subtle influence would always amplify his original intention.
desire.
Stepping onto the mountain gate, you can vaguely see a collapsed archway-like building, with the words "Xuanqing Palace" vaguely left on it, and both sides are covered with thick dust and sand.
Lu Feng and others didn't pay too much attention after taking a glance. The most indispensable thing in the Holy Fire Abyss was these ancient sect ruins. No matter what appeared, there was nothing surprising.
Enter the sect.
Most of the pavilions in the main palace have collapsed, and huge beams are scattered in all directions. The walls of the palace are full of cracks, and the murals on them have been eroded by countless years of wind and rain to the point where they cannot be seen from their original appearance;
However, the traces of the battle left around are still clearly visible, allowing people to understand that turbulent era at a glance, as if they were personally there.
There were basically no valuable objects in the main hall. Even some gold-embedded plaques that could not be taken away were smashed and burned in their original places.
Lu Feng and his party walked through the main hall, looking for an area suitable for temporary accommodation. However, the several side halls and pavilions they saw in succession were almost in dilapidated condition, and could not cover any rain, snow, wind and frost, let alone all kinds of rain, snow, wind and frost that might come back.
poisonous insect.
Continue walking towards the depths of the sect's ruins.
All kinds of desolate and desolate scenery came into view one by one. The once full spiritual pond has now dried up and bottomed out, and the bottom of the pond is covered with thick dead branches and leaves;
The spiritual fields where exotic flowers and plants are cultivated have become parched and barren, with no spiritual vitality left.
Lu Feng walked and looked all the way, imagining the glory of the power of Xuanqing Palace based on the messy and dilapidated scenery, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
No matter how powerful the force is, in the endless years of history, it will eventually become a bubble of the times.
I don’t know what kind of existence the Qingshan Sword Sect and the Qinghe Sect will be like in the endless years to come. I am afraid that they will probably be like the Xuanqing Palace in front of me, leaving only dilapidated ruins everywhere.
"Everyone, come quickly. There are many stone cultivation chambers behind, and the ones left behind are still intact. We should avoid them for a while."
Tu Xiaomin, who had moved forward to investigate, suddenly shouted from a distance.
Lu Feng and others followed the sound and moved closer.
Seeing behind Xuanqing Palace, there are many stone bungalows and pavilions. Although many of them have also been damaged and collapsed, the arrangement of many pavilions covers an area of space, and it can be vaguely seen that they are based on a formation similar to the spirit gathering array.
The lines are arranged in a pattern. It seems that this part of the stone chamber should be a training room used by the Xuanqing Palace of that era for disciples and elders to practice.
Lu Feng walked to a stone room near the periphery and looked in through the collapsed stone door. He saw vaguely complex patterns on the stone walls inside, some of which looked like traces of formations, but they were no longer visible due to man-made destruction and age erosion.
Too clear, no longer has any power;
There is a three-point depression in the middle of the stone chamber, as well as some broken iron pieces, as if there were heavy objects like medicine cauldrons. There are a lot of broken jade bottles piled under one side of the stone wall.
Thinking about it, this stone room should have been used as an alchemy room for alchemy.
After a quick glance, Lu Feng continued to walk forward. He saw Song Wenbai pushing open a door of a stone chamber that was ajar, and looked over.
There were many shelves of weapons placed inside, but the weapons displayed on them had long since disappeared. Only some broken or rusty knives and armors were left scattered on the ground. At first glance, they looked like they had been looted.
Song Wenbai nodded, as if he was very satisfied with the stone room, and said loudly: "It's quite spacious inside. If you tidy it up, it won't be a problem to have a night's rest."
Dong Li said at the door of another stone chamber a hundred feet away: "The stone chamber here looks like a book collection and practice room. It is also very empty. All the practice books have been taken away. I checked the stone door and it is still there.
It can be tightly closed, and poisonous insects and the like will not easily get in."
Facing the increasingly dark sky, everyone searched and found the most spacious stone room with a large stone bed inside.
Although Xi Youmeng was still in a coma, after recovering all the way, his aura was obviously much more stable than before.
After Lu Feng entered the stone room, he helped to calm it down for a while, and finally successfully removed it from his body and settled it on the stone bed on one side.
"Thank you so much, sir," Song Wenbai said with a cupped hand.
Dong Li echoed: "It's causing trouble for the young master."
Lu Feng nodded, took out an array plate, and gestured: "This array has the effect of isolation and concealment. If there is really an infestation by poisonous insects later, it can be placed in the stone chamber."
He walked straight out and said, "I always like to be quiet. I don't like people around me when I practice, so I went to find another place on my own."
Song Wenbai and Dong Li looked at Lu Feng walking out of the stone room in astonishment. Although they considered Xi Youmeng's reputation, they both thought about asking Lu Feng to leave temporarily, but considering the latter's repeated rescues along the way, they felt embarrassed for a moment.
When he opened his mouth, Lu Feng unexpectedly brought it up on his own initiative.
"What do you think?" Song Wenbai's eyes showed some deep meaning.
Dong Li shook his head, "I can't see through it... He knows etiquette and knows how to advance and retreat. He is not like an evil cultivator."
Tu Xiaomin smiled slyly and said: "In my opinion, he is clearly looking for an excuse not to stay here. After all, we are all prostitutes. It is very inconvenient for him, but he doesn't want us to think that he is a gentleman, so he found such a bad excuse."
.”
Dong Li was stunned: "But why does he have to pretend to be an evil cultivator?"
Song Wenbai thought for a while and said in a solemn voice: "Maybe he is just an evil cultivator with a little conscience. Considering the evil methods he has used, we still can't trust him easily. At the moment, we should take care of the young pavilion master first.
Bar."
…
Not long after Lu Feng walked out of the stone room.
They bumped into Ji Lanjun, Chen Shuanghua and their group walking from a distance.
Their eyes faced each other.
Lu Feng's mind suddenly tensed up. Although his steps remained unchanged and he continued to move towards the stone room in the distance, the spiritual energy around his body was already in a very active state, and he was ready to challenge Chen Shuanghua and others at any time.
He didn't think that Ji Lanjun would be able to let go of all the previous grudges in the Misty Valley. Now that Xi Youmeng was no longer in his arms, and the other party was no longer wary of him, there was no chance that he would do some crazy act of revenge.
But he was only on guard and had no intention to kill again. Firstly, it was because of his own condition that it was not suitable for him to have any more murderous intentions. Secondly, because he knew the identity of the other party, he felt that he was not ready to kill him yet.
Chen Shuanghua looked at Lu Feng with a cold face, several bits of cold light in his hands secretly condensed, waiting for Ji Lanjun's order.
But after walking several steps, Ji Lanjun didn't see any movement.
Waiting for consultation.
Ji Lanjun's voice sounded slowly, but it was not directed at her, but instead shouted to Lu Feng, who had already walked some distance away, "Stop!"
Lu Feng was startled and subconsciously stopped.
I thought this was going to be the last battle.
But he heard Ji Lanjun yelling angrily: "The grudge between me and you will not be settled like this! Just wait for me! I will make you sacrifice your life to wash away the revenge of today's humiliation!"
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He just sneered without responding and continued walking forward.
"He, what does he mean?" Ji Lanjun's face turned livid with anger. Lu Feng's sneer and snort sounded extremely harsh to her, as if he was ridiculing her for not overestimating her abilities and having suffered a lot, but she still had no memory.
The scene of being whipped appeared in her mind inexplicably, and her face turned red again for a moment, whether from anger or shame.
Chen Shuanghua secretly held back her breath and surprisingly breathed a sigh of relief.
Meng Jiuxiang on the side noticed it and said with concern: "Are you sure you can kill that kid?"
Ji Lanjun suppressed his anger and looked at Chen Shuanghua.
"Only 30%," Chen Shuanghua said with a solemn expression, "This boy is quite weird. In the misty valley, he was not only broken by my cold needles, but also received a slap from me. It stands to reason that he should be severely tortured by the cold energy of the ice soul, and he will not be able to survive until he dies.
It will feel better, but now he is like a normal person with full aura. I think there should be some kind of evil method that can resolve my ice soul cold energy. Without the advantage of suppressing this method, I am only 30% sure to kill him.
Kill."
Ji Lanjun and Meng Jiuxiang were startled at the same time.
Chen Shuanghua paused and added: "If he wants to kill me, he is probably at least 30% sure."
Ji Lanjun was shocked, "He, is he so powerful? But his appearance is not talented..."
Chen Shuanghua shook his head, "How can an evil cultivator judge his age based on his appearance? He may be an old monster who has practiced the art of preserving his appearance."
Ji Lanjun's heart was twitching, and Yu Xi Youmeng was even more worried.
Glancing at the stone room that Lu Feng walked out of earlier, he realized that Xi Youmeng and others were probably resting inside.
He then signaled: "You guys wait here, I'll go see You Meng."
Chen Shuanghua and Chen Shuanghua saw that Lu Feng had gone far and went straight into a stone room. Their anxious hearts calmed down a lot and they did not stop them.
Ji Lanjun successfully entered the stone room and saw Xi Youmeng passed out on the stone bed. A look of deep self-blame and worry suddenly appeared on his face.
"Ji, Miss Ji~" Song Wenbai and others couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised when they saw the visitor.
"It's great that you're okay," Song Wenbai said with concern: "We, the Young Pavilion Master, were extremely anxious when we saw your signal asking for help."
Ji Lanjun looked at Song Wenbai and others in surprise. Seeing that they were all sincere and no longer joking, he couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't the evil cultivator tell you what happened in the Misty Valley?"
"I told you," Song Wenbai responded subconsciously.
Ji Lanjun's heart trembled.
Then he heard Song Wenbai spat: "Isn't it just that I met the evil formation master invited by that villain Liu Chenzhou and encountered some troubles, causing the young pavilion master to fall into an illusion and suffer some stimulation."
Ji Lanjun was full of astonishment, "He, he told you this?"
As he spoke, an inexplicable feeling of gratitude flashed through his heart.
"Isn't it?" Song Wenbai and others looked at him suspiciously.
Ji Lanjun looked a little uncomfortable, and after a few words of prevarication, he began to inquire about Lu Feng.
I heard Song Wenbai mention that the Shadow Pavilion group had been protected by Lu Feng many times and survived.
Ji Lanjun's face looked a little complicated. He hesitated and asked, "Does your young pavilion master have any special relationship with that evil cultivator?"
Based on his understanding of Xi Youmeng, after coming out of the Misty Valley, Ji Lanjun felt more and more unusual.
Ordinarily speaking, if it is really just a short acquaintance, even if there is trust, it should not be handed over to him before unconsciousness.
There must be some relationship that she doesn't know about!
However, they did not get any useful response from Song Wenbai and others, they all just said it was ordinary.
This made Ji Lanjun couldn't help but become more concerned.
He retorted without any reason: "If it was normal, then how could the evil cultivator risk his life and accompany You Meng into the misty valley to save me?"
"This..." Song Wenbai hesitated.
Dong Li hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "It's the Young Pavilion Master. The evil cultivator asked the Young Pavilion Master to perform a soft dance for him afterwards. Only in this way did he agree to rescue him."
"Rou, Rouwu!?" Ji Lanjun was startled.
Then his face suddenly turned red.
The anger and murderous intent suppressed in his heart rose again.
"Damn evil cultivator, how dare you threaten You Meng like this!"
"I'm going to kill him!"
Ji Lanjun turned around and left in anger.
"No~" Song Wenbai quickly stopped him and blurted out subconsciously: "Aren't you doing this to make us, the Young Pavilion Master, avenge your kindness and break your trust?"
The moment he finished speaking, a thought suddenly occurred to him. It seemed that Lu Feng's behavior just now didn't even mention that condition. He thought it might just be a joke and he didn't take it to heart.
Ji Lanjun was stunned on the spot, secretly realizing that Song Wenbai's words were not unreasonable, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
a long time.
As if he had made some decision, his eyes suddenly became firm.
