After handing over the "Red Butterfly" in the spirit stone sarcophagus to Mu Lao, Jiang Ning finally felt at ease.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Jiang Ning left Huaxia Pharmaceutical at noon and prepared to go to Qihuang Valley.
Baiyun City.
city gate.
Jiang Ning glanced ahead, then slapped Najie, and the red flame flying sword flew out with a roar.
After the red flame flying sword appeared, it immediately suspended in mid-air.
Jiang Ning jumped up and landed on the flying sword. The red flames emitted a ray of light, and Jiang Ning's figure suddenly disappeared into the world.
In the vast world.
Jiang Ning just flew with his sword.
According to the map, the Qihuang Valley is at least 7-800 kilometers away from Baiyun City, so even flying with Jiang Ning's sword would take almost a day.
Fly all the way.
At noon, Jiang Ning saw a small town appearing in his eyes from a distance.
The town was not big, but Jiang Ning's spiritual consciousness swept through and he noticed the aura of a cultivator coming from it.
After pondering for a while, Jiang Ning stepped on the flying sword and flew towards the small town.
The town has only two main streets, east and west.
At the west end of the town, there is a teahouse. The teahouse has two floors, and the aura of several cultivators emanates from the teahouse.
After Jiang Ning glanced at it, he put away "Red Flame" and walked towards the teahouse.
When Jiang Ning walked into the teahouse, he saw several cultivators sitting on the second floor.
in.
There is a couple in the early stage of foundation building, a great monk who has just established foundation, and on the far left side, there is a thin black old man in the middle stage of foundation building.
Jiang Ning just glanced at them briefly and noticed the cultivation level of several people.
but.
He didn't say anything. After walking into the inn, he found a place to sit down quietly.
"Sir, what would you like to order? We have three different varieties of spiritual tea here, the best of which is fire fruit tea..."
A wine shop asked with a smile immediately after seeing Jiang Ning come in.
Jiang Ning didn't even think about it and said directly, "Whatever."
"okay."
The wine shop also saw it
Jiang Ning was a cultivator. After asking, he quickly retreated.
After a while, a fruit tea with a strong fragrance was served.
Jiang Ning sat there, tasting it quietly while observing the other cultivators.
Those cultivators also glanced at Jiang Ning after Jiang Ning came in. When they saw Jiang Ning's Qi Condensation stage cultivation, they shook their heads.
"Zhong Daoyou, are you telling the truth?"
It was the cultivating couple who spoke.
They looked at the great monk and asked.
The great monk clasped his hands and said, "Everything I said is true! Because some people have been killed around the Qihuang Valley in the past few days! And most of them are not low in cultivation, and they are around the foundation building stage."
Hearing the words "Foundation Building Stage", the middle-aged couple had an ugly look on their faces.
The two looked at each other, and the middle-aged man asked, "What does Zhong Daoyou mean?"
"I suggest we go together!"
"In this case, we can take care of each other! After all, if we go to Qihuang Valley alone, there will be too many dangers."
The middle-aged couple pondered for a while and said, "What Zhong Daoyou said is absolutely true. We and I are willing to go with Zhong Daoyou."
After hearing this, the great monk smiled.
Then he looked at the thin black old man sitting next to him who had the highest level of cultivation.
"Fellow Taoist Xiang, what do you think?"
The thin, black old man in the middle stage of foundation building smiled and said, "I have no problem! As long as you are willing, I'll do whatever you want."
Upon hearing this, the great monk said, "Then it's settled, the four of us will travel together from now on."
Say it.
The four of them continued to drink tea.
Jiang Ning has been sitting quietly opposite.
From the conversation between the four people just now, Jiang Ning roughly judged that these four cultivators should be preparing to go to Qihuang Valley just like him.
only.
The cultivators they mentioned were killed? This made Jiang Ning feel slightly curious.
Could it be that there are other dangers near the Qihuang Valley?
Jiang Ning was thinking deeply while drinking tea.
I learned from Cheng Tianfeng earlier that the Qihuang Valley is an underground trading guild.
it's here. ??
There are three religions and nine streams, and there are all kinds of practitioners.
There are even some well-known and upright cultivators who deliberately conceal their identities and enter the Seven Desolations Valley.
it's here. ??
You can exchange things for things.
At the same time, you can also use spirit stones to buy some good magic weapons, elixirs, etc.
Jiang Ning came here this time just to find the "kunai grass" so that he could refine the foundation-building pill for himself.
As long as he has the blessing of the Foundation Establishment Pill, Jiang Ning can quickly reach the Foundation Establishment.
But, what is the danger that the great monk said just now?
Jiang Ning still doesn't know yet.
While Jiang Ning was deep in thought, the eyes of the cultivating couple fell on Jiang Ning.
When she saw that Jiang Ning's cultivation was only at the Qi Condensation stage, the middle-aged woman asked, "Fellow Taoist, that young man also looks like he is going to Qihuang Valley? Do you want to tell him about the danger? At the same time, join us together."
?”
The great monk named Zhong glanced at Jiang Ning slightly. When he found that Jiang Ning's cultivation was only at the Qi Condensation stage, he pondered for a moment.
On the other hand, the thin black old man next to him sneered and said, "It's only a Qi condensation period, so forget it!"
"It's a burden to carry around such a useless piece of wood."
Hearing this, the cultivator woman seemed to want to say something more, but the man next to her stopped her.
"Forget it, let's just listen to fellow Taoist."
The cultivator woman gave Jiang Ning one last sympathetic look, then sighed and said nothing more.
After drinking spiritual tea for a while.
These four cultivators, the thin black old man said, "It's almost time, we should set off."
"Um."
As the words fell, the four of them dropped their tea money, immediately took out their flying swords, and then flew away into the distance.
Watching the four people leave, Jiang Ning didn't say much from beginning to end.
But I can't help but think to myself that this underground trade fair in Qihuang Valley is not as simple as imagined.
After drinking a stick of fragrant tea, Jiang Ning called the waiter in the store over.
"Waiter, check out."
Soon, the boy ran over and said, "Hello, five low-grade spiritual stones."
Jiang Ning took out ten spirit stones and handed them to the boy.
The boy was stunned.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Can I ask you a few questions?"
When the waiter saw Jiang Ning being so generous, he rewarded himself with five spiritual stones as soon as he made a move. He happily said, "Excuse me, sir."
"I want to ask, has anything happened in Qihuang Valley recently?"
"Why did those Taoist cultivators just say that there seemed to be some danger?"
Hearing this, the waiter asked, "Is this your first time coming to Qihuang Valley?"
Jiang Ning nodded.
The waiter said, "No wonder! To be honest, the Qihuang Valley has been extremely uneasy recently!"
"It's not peaceful?"
"Yes."
"Because it is said that a heavy treasure appeared at the Qihuang Valley Trade Fair this time, many powerful practitioners have come to the Qihuang Valley recently, and they are stronger than in previous years! I heard that even the three-star sect Blood Knife Sect
, I also sent some disciples here.”
Jiang Ning couldn't help but frown when he heard the waiter in the shop mention the words Blood Knife Sect.
Damn it.
Why are there traces of the Blood Knife Sect everywhere!
"In addition to the Blood Knife Sect, all the major casual cultivators from the surrounding areas are also here!"
"And for some reason, many casual cultivators were killed near Qihuang Valley some time ago."
"Among those people, there are even monks who are in the middle and late stages of foundation building."
Hearing this, Jiang Ning frowned.
"Who killed those monks?"
The waiter said, "You need to ask? It must be those jealous guys who kill people and steal treasures. Just imagine, when they come to Qihuang Valley this time, everyone comes with money and magic weapons to trade! Of course, many evil cultivators can't help but take advantage of it."
