Under the desolate mountain, the main hall of the Ghost King Sect is hidden in a hard rock cave. In the winding tunnel, somewhere deep and quiet, there is no one in the long tunnel, only the stone walls on both sides.
There is a copper lamp embedded in it, illuminating some places.
You Ji, whose face was covered with black gauze, had an erratic figure, walking forward alone. From a distance, she looked like a ghost in the darkness.
This place is already the forbidden area of the Ghost King Sect. Together with the Ice Cave where Baguio is located, it is the most mysterious place in the Ghost King Sect. Ordinary disciples have always been strictly prohibited from entering and exiting. But Youji, as one of the four holy envoys of the Ghost King Sect,
Suzaku's identity is that he is one of the core members of the Ghost King Sect, so he can freely enter and leave these places.
However, when she glanced at the deep, seemingly endless tunnel that stretched ahead, her steps suddenly slowed down. She seemed to be hesitant, but she finally walked forward.
Deep in the shadows ahead, there seemed to be several strange low roars coming from the front, like the roars of some wild beasts.
After walking through another long tunnel, the lights on both sides became increasingly dim. Finally, after turning a corner, Youji came to the end of the tunnel. There was a stone door with an inscription on the lintel.
With three words:
Trapped in Dragon Palace.
Youji stared at those three words for a long time. There was silence all around. Only the weird roaring sounds that had been heard from time to time gradually became clearer. There seemed to be a faint scent of blood in the air.
The black gauze on her face moved, as if she shook her head, sighed softly, and then walked into the stone door.
As soon as you enter the stone gate, you will suddenly see a huge grotto inside. The strange rocks on the rock wall next to it are abrupt and have different shapes. In front of the stone gate where You Ji is, there is a suspended stone path, winding forward, leading to
In the center of the grotto. At this moment, she was actually in mid-air of this huge grotto.
It was obviously not the first time for You Ji to come here. When she saw this scene, she showed no signs of surprise. She only remained silent for a moment and then walked forward along the narrow stone path. The upper part of the grotto was completely dark.
, but just below the stone path, there is a red light shining faintly, and when it is reflected, it makes the rock wall above the grotto look a bit ferocious.
The smell of blood in the air is getting stronger.
It is not known whether this suspended stone path in the huge grotto was formed naturally or was made by man. It is just hanging in the air. Looking from a distance, it is unbelievable that there is no supporting stone pillar underneath.
You Ji's black figure was walking on the stone path, but there was no sound of footsteps as she walked. She really looked a bit ghostly. But not long after walking, she saw the figure in front of her.
Ghost King.
At the end of the stone path, there is a seven-foot stone platform. The Ghost King is standing on it at the moment, with his hands behind his hands. Looking from behind, his figure is calm and heavy, and it seems that he is integrated with this huge grotto.
Strange feeling.
You Ji walked behind him and whispered: "Sect Master."
The Ghost King turned around, nodded, and said with a smile: "You're here."
The black veil on You Ji's face suddenly paused, as if she was surprised. When the stone path reaches this platform, even if it reaches the end, there is an empty space in front of it. Correspondingly, the mysterious red light under the grotto is much brighter from here.
.This time the Ghost King turned his head, and the red light suddenly shot over from where he turned, vaguely illuminating his face, and even his eyes seemed to have a faint red glow.
The Ghost King didn't seem to notice this, and just said: "Come here."
You Ji walked over and stood on the platform. Her eyes suddenly brightened up. There was no longer a stone path to block it, and she could see everything at the bottom of the grotto.
Under this grotto, there is actually a huge blood pool. The bright red blood fills the bottom of the huge grotto. I really don’t know where the Ghost King Sect got so much fresh blood. I think the strong smell of blood in the air comes from below.
came.
In the blood pool, there are two giant beasts soaked in it, one is the yellow bird in the death swamp, and the other is the strange beast Kui Niu in Liubo Mountain in the East China Sea. Most of the bodies of these two ancient strange beasts are soaked in the blood.
, at the same time, there was a dark red light from above the blood pool, shrouding them. Look at the place where the dark red light came from, it was the Fulong Cauldron that was volleyed in the air by an inexplicable force.
The location of the Fulong Cauldron was quite far away from where the Ghost King and You Ji were standing, but You Ji could still see a black figure casting a spell on the Fulong Cauldron, but it was blurry under the red light. But even so, she
But he still knew who he was - Mr. Ghost, the most mysterious figure in the Demon King's Sect.
As one of the four great envoys of the previous generation of the Ghost King Sect, You Ji knows almost everything about the Ghost King Sect, but this Mr. Ghost is an exception. The reason is very simple. This person was not a figure in the Ghost King Sect originally.
After the contemporary Ghost King came to the throne, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared next to him. The Ghost King respected him very much, and the strange Taoist techniques displayed by this mysterious figure in a few of his attacks also made Qinglong and Youji
Wait for the masters of the Ghost King Sect to be moved by it.
But in You Ji's heart, she has always been deeply wary of this person. The most important reason is that under the strong promotion of Mr. Ghost, the Ghost King finally started to activate the "Four Spirits Blood Array" ten years ago.
.
The "Fulong Cauldron", the sect-suppressing magic weapon passed down by the Ghost King Sect through the generations, has a mysterious origin. It contains endless spiritual power, is neither good nor evil, and is extremely weird. On the body of the Fulong Cauldron, in addition to ancient patterns,
There are also many mysterious inscriptions engraved on it, which the ancestors of the ghost king sect of all generations have been unable to understand. But when it comes to the current generation of ghost kings, he has everything in his mind, and he is really an unparalleled genius. Just around him, another person who seems to have a special knowledge of this kind of mysterious writing suddenly appeared.
Mr. Ghost, the two of them worked together to decipher these mysterious words.
It turns out that the inscription on the body of the Fulong Cauldron records a strange magic array called the "Four Spirits Blood Array", which requires the spiritual power of four strange beasts from the ancient prehistoric era to trigger the strange magic power of the Fulong Cauldron itself, and then it becomes a magical formation.
A peerless magic formation with unparalleled power. According to what is said in the inscriptions of the ancient tripod, once this four-spirit blood formation is formed, its power will be enough to destroy the world.
The Ghost King is an unparalleled hero with great talent and great strategy, so naturally he will not turn a blind eye to such a powerful force. Ten years ago, in the battle between Qingyun and Qingyun, the Qingyun Sect's Immortal-killing Sword Formation was so powerful that it was so powerful that it was invincible and beyond human power. After careful consideration, the Ghost King found out that only
Only with this four-spirit blood formation can we defeat the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
From then on, all the actions of the Ghost King Sect began to revolve around the Four Spirits Blood Array.
You Ji withdrew her eyes from the blurry figure of Mr. Ghost, and looked at the two spiritual beasts in the blood pool. Although surrounded by blood, the yellow bird, which had lived for who knows how many years, was obviously not willing to do so, and would make noises from time to time.
With an angry roar, his wings spread out, causing a huge wave of blood around him.
It's just that the blood in the blood pool seems to have a strange restraint effect on it. The yellow bird's spiritual power and strength are obviously far from what it was back then, especially when there is a dark red light emitting from the Fulong Cauldron above its head.
Looking at it. As soon as the yellow bird made any movement, the dark red light suddenly became brighter. The yellow bird enveloped by it suddenly felt like being suppressed by Mount Tai. The body that had just been raised was immediately pressed back by the unmatched gravity.
After several rounds of this, the yellow bird's movements gradually slowed down. Although it was still resisting, it became increasingly weak. On the other side of the blood pool, the strange beast Kui Niu with one leg and a huge body was soaked in blood.
There was no movement in the pool, except for the occasional glance towards the yellow bird. I wonder if it was because he had been trapped here for a long time and had completely given up resistance.
Seeing these two originally arrogant spiritual beasts end up like this, You Ji couldn't help but frown slightly under the black veil, feeling an inexplicable disgust in her heart.
The Ghost King standing next to her seemed to feel something. He looked at her and suddenly said: "What are you thinking about?"
You Ji was startled, then calmed down and said calmly: "It's nothing, Sect Master."
The Ghost King looked at her, then moved his eyes to the blood pool. After a while, he slowly said: "Now the Four Spirits Blood Array is half completed. As long as we find two more spirit beasts to guide us, the day when our Ghost King Sect will dominate the world is just around the corner.
.”
You Ji was silent for a moment and said softly: "Yes."
The Ghost King stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes still not leaving the two spirit beasts in the blood pool, but he suddenly changed the subject and said: "You arrived at Death Lake before me. I asked you to observe Ghost Li secretly. Do you have anything to say to me?"
Did I say that?"
The black gauze on You Ji's face moved slightly, and after a moment, she said: "He is in the Death Swamp, leading his men to circle around the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, the Hehuan Sect and the Righteous Way, in such complicated, mysterious and murderous situations.
He still had a solid basis for advancing and retreating, and finally joined forces with others to destroy the Changsheng Hall. He is truly a general. And..."
When she said this, she suddenly paused. The Ghost King was slightly surprised and said: "How?"
Youji hesitated for a moment and said: "He suddenly attacked Qin Wuyan in the inner lake and seriously injured Wandumen's Qin Wuyan. His mind is stoic and ruthless, which should not be underestimated." As he said that, Youji suddenly felt in a trance, and she was talking about it.
Is this person really the Zhang Xiaofan from back then?
Is the person Baguio truly loves really him?
The Ghost King seemed quite satisfied, and nodded: "This boy has a persevering and resolute temperament. He is indeed a rare talent. Over the years, he has practiced my holy teachings, and he has an unparalleled evil weapon in his body day and night. He has a violent temper."
It’s normal to kill some.”
You Ji raised her head and looked at the Ghost King. She saw a faint smile on his lips, but against his calm but powerful face, there was actually a chill.
"However," the Ghost King said suddenly, "I heard that Ghost Li's situation was a little strange when he met those in the righteous path in the Deadpool, especially a Qingyun disciple named Lu Xueqi. But there is such a thing.
thing?"
Youji was shocked, but she saw the Ghost King's face was indifferent, and she couldn't tell what he was thinking, but she suddenly felt confused for some reason. She and Qinglong sneaked into Death Lake secretly, and there was some subtlety between Gui Li and Lu Xueqi.
, she saw most of it secretly. But thinking about it now, she felt an inexplicable heartache.
He kept shaking his head as he spoke, and then he rose up with his sword, headed south, and disappeared without a trace in a moment.
The ancient temple suddenly became quiet, and the insect chirping that Lu Shun had just frightened away began to sound again. The cold moon breeze brought a desolate scene once again.
But as Lu Shun disappeared for a long time, the ancient temple seemed to have lost its vitality, and there was still no movement. After a while, there was a sharp roar in the air, and a red sword light suddenly rushed down from the high-altitude clouds, landing extremely quickly.
In the courtyard of the ancient temple, after a few shakes, Lu Shun's figure appeared.
This time he came back, and he actually used an empty city strategy. He pretended to escape far away, but turned back from a distance and hid in the dark clouds in the sky. Unfortunately, despite this, no one showed up in the ancient temple. Lu Shun
A frustrated look finally appeared on his face, and he let out a long sigh. After a moment of silence, he took off with his sword again and flew towards the south. He was never seen again. It seemed that he was really gone this time.
In the ancient temple, tranquility was restored again, but after a moment, two black shadows shook, and two figures slowly appeared.
The first person walked slowly into the courtyard. The moonlight shone down coldly like water, casting his figure into a long and slender shadow on the broken bluestone courtyard slab.
It's Gui Li.
Raise your head and look at the moon.
The cold moonlight shone on his face.
Suddenly, he looked as if he had experienced some vicissitudes of life.
Even Xiao Hui, the monkey lying on his shoulder, seemed silent at the moment, just like his master, silently looking up at the moon.
"What, sir, do you like the moonlight in southern Xinjiang?" Suddenly, another slim figure behind him, still hidden in the shadows, made a sweet and soft voice, reaching his ears.
Gui Li slowly withdrew his gaze, but did not look back or answer the shadow woman's question. Instead, he asked: "Why did you kill that fish man?"
The woman who was still invisible in the shadows chuckled and said: "Those fish-men not only harmed the young master's subordinates, but also my men. I did this to save your breath, young master."
Gui Li's expression didn't change at all, and he obviously didn't believe these words at all. He said calmly: "I have heard for a long time that the 'Purple Light Blade' is a divine weapon of the Nine Heavens. Today, I used it in the hands of the girl. It really has unpredictable power."
The woman chuckled softly and sweetly, and suddenly the desolate night seemed to become more alive with a few colors added to it.
Footsteps sounded slowly, and she slowly walked out from the shadows.
It was Jin Ping'er who was known as "Miao Gongzi" from the Hehuan sect of the demon sect. Under the moonlight, she was still wearing goose-yellow clothes, with the soft skirt gently swaying in the night wind, and a few strands of thin hair.
It hangs down between the temples, slightly messy, but seems to have an inexplicable sultry feeling.
Ancient temple in the mountains, beauty on a cold night!
At this moment, her eyes were as full as water, and there seemed to be spring pictures between her brows, so beautiful and clear that for a moment, even the night seemed to become gentle.
Gui Li turned around and looked at her face.
There was still a smile on Jin Ping'er's lips, and she said softly: "Young master, you are carrying a rare treasure. It is an unparalleled treasure that combines the 'blood-devouring bead' and the 'soul-absorbing bead'. My little purple glow blade
, how dare you compare with your Soul Eater?"
A flash of red flashed in Gui Li's eyes, but his expression did not change much, and he said: "Is the girl going south this time also to track down these fish-men aliens?"
Jin Ping'er nodded slightly, then his eyes flashed, and he said: "But I didn't expect that this matter has something to do with Fenxiang Valley."
Gui Li glanced at her and said nothing, but he became more and more wary of this woman. Just now, she suddenly sniped and killed the leader of the fish-men alien race. This level of moral conduct seemed to be higher than that of the other day in the dead marsh.
The Taoist skills she and Qin Wuyan showed when they besieged Changshengtang Yuyangzi were much higher. I'm afraid she didn't try her best that day.
It's just that this skill is advanced, but it is second to none. He also had a back-up that day. But Jin Ping'er's sniper killing of the fishmen clearly meant to blame Fenxiang Valley and sow discord between the barbarians who secretly colluded with Fenxiang Valley.
This woman's deep scheming and ruthless methods are truly extraordinary.
Jin Ping'er's eyes turned to Gui Li's face a few times, and then he suddenly smiled and said: "Young Master must have been tracking down these fish-men when you came south this time. I wonder what you found?"
Gui Li said calmly: "No."
Jin Ping'er listened to his indifferent answer, but she was not angry. Instead, she smiled even softer and said, "It's just that now we all know that Fenxiang Valley seems to have secret dealings with these barbarian monsters. I wonder what the master plans to do?"
Gui Li's eyes flickered and he said, "What do you think, girl?"
Jin Ping'er smiled and said, "I asked the young master first."
When Gui Li asked her question in anger and laughter, he frowned and had countless thoughts in his mind: This time he suddenly discovered that Fenxiang Valley was secretly colluding with the foreign tribes of the Southern Barbarians. It would be a sensational event. If it spread to the world.
, I'm afraid those righteous people will be stunned with fear.
Under this situation, the best way is to explore the mysterious Fenxiang Valley. However, the current situation seems to have a lot to say. Not to mention that the Southern Barbarians have always been extremely mysterious. The strength of Fenxiang Valley alone
They should not be underestimated. Li Xun, Yan Hong and others who came out of Fenxiang Valley in the past, including the old man Lu Shun just now, all had extremely high moral standards.
Jin Ping'er slowly walked up to Gui Li, looked up at him, and said with a smile, "Young master, you want to visit Fenxiang Valley at night?"
Gui Li's eyes flashed and he said: "Why, does the girl also have this intention?"
Jin Ping'er smiled slightly, charmingly, as if there was something beautiful coming right in front of her. Gui Li's mind was moved by it, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.
Jin Ping'er said calmly: "Of course I am willing to go on this trip with you, but there is something I want you to agree to."
Gui Li's eyes narrowed and he said, "What?"
Jin Ping'er smiled and said: "I just hope that the young master will not suddenly kill me from the side like he did with Qin Wuyan."
