Gui Li threw the dead gray dolphin in the corner and carefully checked the entrance of the cave where the gray dolphin was. Sure enough, he found a very thin line coming out of the hole and connecting it to a bell in the distance. He must have gone there.
In the past few days, he and Jin Ping'er failed to sneak in many times, but they were always discovered by this little gray dolphin.
He had read the record in the ghost king sect's secret collection "Strange Stories of Gods and Demons" that the gray dolphin's nose was extremely sensitive, far better than anything in the world. He had tried his best to cover his body in the past few days, but he did not expect that he was being
This little beast was discovered.
But even though he figured out this joint, Gui Li immediately frowned and stood in the dark corner of the wall, pondering for a moment. Although the gray dolphin is not an ancient beast, it is rare in the world.
I have always heard that it can only be found in a forest deep in the Shiwan Mountains in southern Xinjiang. This beast actually exists in Fenxiang Valley, and in the past few days, I have tried to enter Fenxiang Valley from many places, but without exception, I have been killed.
It is surprising to find that there are quite a lot of gray dolphins in Fenxiang Valley.
But the most important thing is to tame many gray dolphins to such an extent at the same time. This kind of beast-controlling skills is unheard of not only in the Central Plains righteous way, but also in the demon sect. It is said that there are quite a lot of such skills among the barbarians in southern Xinjiang.
Strange magic!
Gui Li raised his eyes and turned around, looking forward, and suddenly found that amidst the noise in the distance, there was still silence in the depths of Fenxiang Valley. Darkness shrouded it like a black curtain, and it was unknown how many secrets were hidden.
The noise at the entrance to the valley gradually became quieter. Only people talking loudly could be heard in the distance, but the sounds of fighting had all disappeared. It seemed that the Fenxiang Valley side had gradually taken control of the situation.
I don’t know who he is, who dares to provoke Fenxiang Valley so openly? Gui Li retracted his gaze towards the entrance of the valley, and the figure of Jin Ping’er passed through his mind unconsciously. This mysterious and charming woman is probably still in the chaos at this moment.
In it!
At this moment, Gui Li has penetrated deep into the Fenxiang Valley from the invisible corner. Along the way, there are no more alarm bells caused by gray dolphins. I think Fenxiang Valley probably has these little beasts with keen sense of smell distributed in every edge corner of the valley.
, once you reach the middle of the valley, you don’t have to worry about these things.
The night was dark, and the valley that had just calmed down from the noise seemed particularly deep. As the ghostly figure wandered along the path of the pavilion in the valley, the world under the black curtain gradually emerged.
Fenxiang Valley is known as the pillar of righteousness in the world. Although it usually behaves in a low-key manner, it is after all a powerful sect that has flourished for eight hundred years. What gradually emerges along the way is the foundation of this sect.
Under the night, there are only a dozen paths, large or small, connected to each other, spreading out like the blood vessels of the human body, deep into the darkness deep in Fenxiang Valley. On both sides of the road are ordinary disciples' residences, or tall and majestic buildings.
The palaces, among these buildings, are mostly flowers, plants and trees, including green bamboos and winter plums, as well as bright peonies and peonies. They are grouped together and look at each other from a distance. They are integrated with the surrounding palaces, and each has its own flavor.
Because of this commotion, even though it was late at night, there were disciples from Fenxiang Valley walking around here from time to time. Gui Li had to carefully hide his figure to avoid exposing his whereabouts. However, the expressions on the faces of these disciples seemed to be very calm.
From the surprise and shock at the beginning of the commotion, I knew that the situation at the entrance of the valley had already settled.
Naturally, these few disciples of Fenxiang Valley can't stop Gui Li from wandering around. For ten years, he has practiced the true method of Buddhism, Demonism, and Taoism. Based on the weird and magical heavenly books and magic, his Taoism has progressed at a speed that is unbelievable. Even the learned and talented
The ghost king was also surprised and couldn't figure it out. In the end, he could only attribute it to the principle of Buddhist and Taoist practitioners. Maybe there is really a mystery of secret coordination and improvement.
It's just that Gui Li was hiding in the dark. Although he didn't pay attention to these ordinary Fenxiang Valley disciples, the dozens of roads in front of him gave him a real headache and he didn't know where to go. This time he sneaked into Fenxiang Valley secretly.
With his selfish intention, he wanted to explore the secrets inside the Incense Valley, and it would be best to find out the relationship with those southern barbarian aliens.
To know this, you naturally need to go to where the important people are in Incense Valley, but the paths in front of you look like a maze, which is really a headache.
Just when Gui Li frowned and pondered, considering whether to arrest a Fenxiang Valley disciple for torture, there was a sudden movement on his shoulder, and a slight moan came from Xiao Hui's ear.
Gui Li was startled. He turned around and couldn't help but feel his body shake. He saw the monkey Xiao Hui holding his clothes tightly with his hands. The monkey's face was distorted and his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was in pain.
, but after all, it is psychic and knows that this is not the time, so it endures it.
Gui Li's surprise was not a trivial one. For some reason, there seemed to be something wrong with Xiao Hui from the moment he entered the valley. At this moment, it seemed that he was in great pain.
Reaching out and gently hugging Xiao Hui, Gui Li looked at it carefully and felt the monkey's body trembling slightly in his palm. It was obvious that it was trying its best to resist the unknown pain. Gui Li was even more worried in his heart.
, whispered: "What's wrong, Xiao Hui?"
As if because he heard the master's words, the little gray head tilted and slowly opened his eyes.
A golden light with a hint of dark red, like a strange will-o'-the-wisp in the night, or even more like a strange devil's eye under the Nine Netherworld, appeared in front of Gui Li's eyes.
The surrounding temperature seemed to have suddenly cooled down.
Xiao Hui's breathing began to gradually increase in volume, and Gui Li could clearly feel that the strength of the monkey's claws holding his hands was getting stronger and stronger, and the claws dug deeply into his muscles.
The monkey's mouth slowly opened and closed, but the strange golden light in its eyes stared at Gui Li tightly, never relaxing for a moment. From there, Gui Li suddenly felt a familiar feeling, the same as when he was crazy in the past.
The same bloodthirsty eyes...
In an instant, Gui Li suddenly felt that his whole body was cold. He suddenly turned his head and looked at his hand. Inside the sleeve robe, at some point, the blood-devouring bead above the top of the soul-devouring soul emitted a faint green light with a faint blood light.
.
Blood-devouring beads!
The most vicious and evil things in this world are actually so weird...
As if it suddenly emerged from the depths of his heart, Gui Li suddenly felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He turned his head in a daze and looked at Xiao Hui. Xiao Hui seemed to have felt something, and he called out twice.
.
Gui Li calmed down, and then found that behind the golden light in Xiao Hui's eyes, there seemed to be a hint of panic. He took a deep breath, then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "It's okay."
Xiao Hui seemed to understand his master's words. He blinked his eyes and slowly closed them. After a while, it seemed that the inexplicable pain gradually subsided, and the strength in Xiao Hui's claws also gradually decreased.
Gui Li stood in the darkness and slowly held Xiao Hui in his arms.
The night is as cold as water.
There was darkness ahead, and the figures of a man and a monkey flickered gently in the dark corners of the night.
I don’t know how long I stood there, but Xiao Hui seemed to have fallen asleep, lying quietly in Gui Li’s arms. Gui Li didn’t even care that this was the dangerous place of Fenxiang Valley, and stood in the darkness, holding him gently.
monkey.
Suddenly, Xiao Hui in his arms moved and raised his head. Gui Li looked down and saw that the golden light in the monkey's eyes had disappeared, and he became his usual lively and lively self again.
Gui Li felt relieved, but before he could say anything, Xiao Hui seemed to struggle for a moment, and then pointed to a road outside with his arm. Gui Li was startled, and looked up. After a while,
Sure enough, two people came from that road, but they were characters Gui Li recognized.
Li Xun and Yan Hong.
Gui Li frowned. He had known these two people ten years ago. They were both extremely talented people. Although things had changed in the past ten years and they no longer met each other, for a cultivator, ten years was just like a snap of a finger.
.The expressions and appearance of the two of them are almost exactly the same as ten years ago, but looking at their movements, I am afraid that their conduct is not comparable to that of back then.
I saw the two of them walking slowly and seemed to be talking to each other. When they got closer, they heard Yan Hong say: "Brother, why did those monsters suddenly rush in?"
Li Xun frowned, obviously not understanding. But looking at his stern face, he said coldly: "Those uncivilized beasts, who knows what they are thinking! If I say these fishmen dare to invade the valley, I will call them
They have come and gone, why bother bothering Uncle Shangguan again?"
Yan Hong said softly: "Senior Brother, don't be angry. The Valley Master is very far-sighted. There must be something about this matter that we cannot know for the time being. When we first negotiated with these barbarians, it was Uncle Shangguan who used his magical power to scare him away.
As a heavenly being, as long as he comes forward, those monsters will leave obediently. This must be the reason why the Valley Master asked us to invite Master Shangguan to come out."
Li Xun snorted and said: "Of course I know this, but I don't understand why we, the lord of Fenxiang Valley, should be so humble to these monsters, and now we have to ask Uncle Shangguan to come forward. If this matter gets spread, we will
Hasn’t Burning Incense Valley become the laughing stock of the world’s righteousness?”
Yan Hong smiled and said: "Brother, I think these barbarians still have some use for them, so the Valley Master tolerates them. In the future..." At this point, she suddenly stopped talking, but looked at Li Xun with a pair of eyes,
There seems to be more than a thousand words to say.
Li Xun curled his lips, and there seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction on his handsome face. Looking from a distance, it made him look even more chic. However, he didn't say anything else, he just sighed softly, and he and Yan Hong slowly walked onto a nearby path.
, and disappeared into the night after a while.
In the shadows, a gaze was as sharp as a knife, looking at their backs. Gui Li's mind suddenly turned, and it turned out that those who invaded Fenxiang Valley tonight were actually the fish-men aliens he was tracking. Recalling that night three days ago, he had
Lu Shun was heard talking to the fish-man in the dark. The tall fish-man seemed to be the leader of the clan.
It seems that what happened tonight was probably caused by the fact that the fish-men clan leader was killed by Jin Ping'er, and the remaining fish-men clan came to take revenge in anger. When he thought of this, Gui Li couldn't help but flashing Jin Ping'er's figure in his heart, and he thought about it.
The woman's vigilance deepened.
He stood in the shadow for a moment, then seemed to have made a decision, and looked at Xiao Hui in his arms. Xiao Hui blinked his eyes, suddenly moved, and jumped up to his shoulder, grinning, and looked
Has fully recovered.
Gui Li felt relieved, smiled faintly, and said, "How about we go see what kind of person that uncle Shangguan is?"
Xiao Hui called out "Zhi Zhi" twice and waved his monkey hand, pointing to the path Li Xun and Yan Hong walked on.
Gui Li smiled silently in the darkness, and his figure suddenly rose, as fast as a ghost, and headed towards the secluded path.
In the distance, a disciple of Fenxiang Valley was walking towards here. Suddenly he felt a blur in front of his eyes, as if there was a ghost flashing across the road leading to the "Xuanhuo Altar", the important place in the valley. When he turned to look carefully, there was nothing.
Didn't see it. He couldn't help but be startled for a moment, then shook his head, muttered, and continued walking forward, not taking it to heart.
The path is quiet, but this road is unexpectedly long. Obviously, the place where Shangguan Master is located is very secluded. Gui Li didn't go far on this road, and there were no other houses around. There were many houses on both sides of the road.
The trees, flowers and grass, the night wind blowing, under the light of the moon in the sky, the shadows of the trees danced, looking like some kind of demon dancing wildly, revealing a bit of weirdness.
Gui Li carefully walked forward along this path. After walking for a while, he didn't see any fork in the road like outside. It seemed that this road led directly to where the Shangguan Master was.
Fenxiang Valley occupies a huge area, and this trail, looking winding, leads to the depths of the valley.
Suddenly, a white square object suddenly appeared on the side of the road ahead. Gui Li's eyes narrowed and he looked intently. It was a stone tablet with two lines of eight characters engraved on it:
The land of mysterious fire
Disciple stops
Gui Li frowned, not because he hesitated because there might be some mysterious place in Fenxiang Valley ahead, but because the word "Xuanhuo" quietly touched a place in his heart.
He couldn't help but glance at his right arm. Under the clothes, the "Xuan Huo Jian" was lying quietly on his arm.
He was stunned for a moment, then sneered and walked past the stone tablet.
Although the stone monument looked unremarkable, it seemed to be a dividing line. After passing the stone monument, for some reason, although the path still curved forward, the trees and flowers on both sides of the road were obviously much fewer.
First, the green grass on the ground gradually disappeared, then the low shrubs, and finally even the originally dense trees on both sides gradually became sparse. Not to mention that the ground began to crack, even the few remaining trees, their branches became thinner.
It was all withered and yellow, as if there was an extreme lack of water in the area and the land was scorched.
I don’t know if it has anything to do with the word “Xuanhuo”?
The little Hui on the shoulder gave a low cry and moved its body, seeming a little uneasy. Gui Li patted its body gently, and then the little Hui gradually calmed down. The scene around it was indeed very strange, but looking at it
It was there, but it didn't seem to be an important place in Fenxiang Valley. Otherwise, I didn't even see a guarding disciple along the way.
With thoughts in his mind, Gui Li followed the path and turned the last bend.
Suddenly, he was so determined that he couldn't help but tremble. A large open space appeared in front of him, and a heat wave blew in his face from nowhere.
In the center of the open space is a huge circular altar, with the bottom suspended in the air. Thirteen huge white jade stone pillars three feet high support the entire altar. There are twelve white jade stone pillars on the edge of the altar, each with a
The two people hugging each other are so thick, and the thickest white jade stone pillar in the middle of the altar looks like it would take at least five or six people to hug it.
Above the altar, all the buildings are made of a strange red stone, including steps and railings. In the center of the altar, stands a tall and majestic hall, taking on the shape of a pagoda. There are three floors, each with
The higher floor is about half smaller than the next floor, but each floor looks almost incredible ten feet high.
From a distance, this altar was like a huge burning red flame, piercing the sky. Gui Li stood under this altar, almost as small as an ant.
Gui Li took a deep breath. The building in front of him was truly astonishing. The words "uncanny workmanship" were worthy of being placed here. He never expected that there would be such a majestic building in Fenxiang Valley. He pondered in his heart, and for a moment he thought of what he had just come in.
He vaguely knew that the stone tablet in front of him was the rumored famous place in Fenxiang Valley - the Xuanhuo Altar.
He calmed down and then floated over quietly. Except for the mysterious fire altar in front of him, there was an empty space with no cover. Fortunately, there were no people guarding the left and right, and his figure was still strong.
Quickly, we arrived at the bottom of the Xuanhuo Altar in a blink of an eye.
As soon as he got close to the Xuanhuo Altar, the heat in the air suddenly became several times higher. Even though he had practiced as well as Gui Li, he felt upset and there was a faint sweat on his forehead. Gui Li frowned, secretly in his heart.
Surprised, he immediately remembered that he didn't know if Xiao Hui could withstand such intense heat, so he turned around and saw Xiao Hui lying on his shoulder, scratching his head and ears, seemingly turning a blind eye to the heat around him.
Gui Li was startled, and subconsciously felt that Xiao Hui had been unusual recently, especially since he had swallowed the elixir and strange stones from the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury on the sacred tree in the Death Swamp, and his body had obviously begun to gradually change.
But no matter what, in the current situation, it is much better for Xiao Hui not to be afraid of heat than to be afraid of heat. Gui Li has no intention to care about so many things for the time being. When he was thinking about whether to rush to this mysterious fire altar next, he suddenly
There was a sound of footsteps coming from above the Xuanhuo Altar.
Gui Li frowned and took a quick look around, but saw that there was no cover at all. After thinking for a moment, he flew under the Xuanhuo Altar and hid behind a thick white jade stone pillar.
He hid behind the stone pillar and subconsciously reached out to touch the stone pillar. Suddenly his hand felt hot. He reacted so quickly and immediately retracted his hand.
Under the mysterious fire altar, even the stone pillars were boiling hot.
The footsteps became louder, and it was obvious that someone was walking down. Suddenly, an old voice was heard saying slowly: "Since the Valley Master has invited me, I will naturally go. But please tell me why those fishmen suddenly became so violent and arrived.
To the point of attacking the valley?”
Gui Li hid in the shadow of the stone pillar and looked out, only to see Li Xun and Yan Hong walking down behind an old man in gray clothes with respectful expressions.
