Inside the Xuan Qiong Tower, somewhere on the twelfth level of space.
Purple lightning flashed in mid-air, and a snow kite fell down with its whole body charred black, and turned into dots of light on the way.
A ray of purple sword light flew down and was put away by Shi Mu, and then his body swayed down and landed next to Ximen Xue. On the other side of the woman, Yan Luo fell almost at the same time.
"Finally everything is solved." Shi Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
"I would like to thank you two more this time!" Ximen Xue suppressed the shock in her heart and bowed to Shi Mu and Yan Luo.
As soon as he finished speaking, a sound broke through the air from the horizon not far away.
Shi Mu and the others followed the sound, but saw several Kanshui Temple disciples flying over.
Seeing this, Ximen Xue frowned slightly and glanced at Shi Mu.
Shi Mu's face was calm, and the golden light in his eyes flashed.
He recognized the leader. It was the green-haired young man who came to Lihuo Temple to challenge that day. Lang Kun, who had fought with Ximen Xue, was also among them.
Several people glanced at Shi Mu and the other three, then looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"It turns out to be Junior Sister Ximen and Junior Brother Lei. It seems that we are really destined to meet here." The green-haired young man said and glanced at Yanluo, but immediately looked away.
"Senior Brother Li." Ximen Xue nodded.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at the other party without saying a word.
"I'll take my leave as soon as I have something else to do." The green-haired young man said nothing more, turned around and flew towards the distance, quickly disappearing into the distance.
"Junior sister Ximen, why are you being chased by so many fantasy beasts?" Shi Mu looked away from the retreating light of the green-haired young man and others, looked at Ximen Xue, and asked.
"I originally acted together with several fellow disciples. I had collected all the magic beads and planned to search for the space passage leading to the next level. I did find some clues to the space passage along the way. It turned out that we were passing near a snow peak in front of us.
, suddenly encountered a large number of phantom beasts, and they came here fighting and fleeing, and several other sect members have been teleported out of the tower." Ximen Xue said.
"Suddenly encountered a large number of fantasy beasts..." Shi Mu repeated softly.
"What did you say?" Ximen Xue asked without hearing clearly.
"Oh, it's nothing." Shi Mu shook his head.
"Senior Brother Lei, I have a gracious request, I wonder if I can go with you guys next time?" Ximen Xue first glanced at Yan Luo, then looked at Shi Mu softly and said.
Shi Mu was startled and glanced at Yan Luo from the corner of his eye.
Yan Luo's expression was silent at this moment, and he had not spoken since the beginning.
"This... Since we are all members of the Fire Temple at the same time, we naturally have to help each other, so we can act together." Shi Mu hesitated for a moment and said.
"That's great, thank you Brother Lei." Ximen Xue said with joy, her face blooming.
"Ahem! No, let's go." Shi Mu coughed dryly and flew towards the distance without looking at Yanluo.
Ximen Xue smiled sweetly and turned to look at Yan Luo.
Coincidentally, Yanluo also looked over.
The two people's eyes met, but immediately looked away from each other.
In the following time, since the three of them had gathered the magic beads on the Xuan Qiong Order, they immediately flew forward to find the space passage.
Shi Mu looked around. The higher they went, the smaller the space seemed to be. They met other disciples from time to time along the way, but the number of phantom beasts on this level seemed to increase.
The strength of the phantom beasts here is comparable to that of warriors in the early stages of the Heavenly Throne. After the three of them encountered the phantom beasts, they tried their best to avoid them. When it was inevitable, they took action to kill them.
Time passed quickly, and half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
The three of them first went to several places where Shi Mu had discovered clues before, but to no avail. Then, under Ximen Xue's suggestion, they went to the places where Shi Mu had been ambushed by the phantom beasts before, but all returned without success.
"It's a bit weird. We haven't found the space passage yet." Shi Mu walked forward and communicated with Yanluo through his mind.
As a result, Yanluo looked silent and did not respond.
Shi Mu smiled bitterly in his heart, vaguely aware that Yan Luo seemed a little angry at Ximen Xue's joining, and was about to think of something to make up for it.
Before he could speak, a sound broke through the air from ahead, and a large group of people flew over, there seemed to be twenty or thirty people.
Shi Mu's expression changed, and the three of them immediately stopped and were on alert. However, they relaxed after seeing the person clearly.
The crowd flying towards them were all from Lihuo Temple, and the leader was none other than Wen Hua.
"It's you." Wen Hua and others stopped when they saw the three Shi Mu.
"Elder brother." The three of them flew forward and saluted Wen Hua.
"It's good that the three of you can reach this twelfth floor alone, but by now, the phantom beasts are already very powerful and there are many of them. You three should also join us," Wen Hua said.
Shi Mu and the other three had a fierce battle before. Although they won, they consumed a lot of energy and mana. They were looking for passages and were ambushed by phantom beasts from time to time, which made them quite bored. Now that they met Wen Hua's invitation, what else could they say?
Agree.
Since Lei Ji and Lin Tao were not very outstanding in Lihuo Temple, except for a few people who knew each other and nodded symbolically to the two of them, the others just glanced at the two and looked away.
On the other hand, this girl Ximen Xue attracted most of the attention even though she was also in the early stage of heavenly cultivation.
"By the way, can you three find the space passage on this level?" Wen Hua asked.
"We have been looking for it for a long time, but we didn't find it," Shi Mu said.
Wen Hua was silent when he heard this and frowned.
The group of them searched for a long time, but could not find the space passage. As time went by, in order to save energy consumption, several teams merged together.
"Senior Brother, there are so many of us at the moment. It is better to spread out several miles apart. In this way, we can expand the search area, and if we encounter phantom beasts, we can quickly gather to fight." Ximen Xue said suddenly.
"Junior sister Ximen's method is good. I was just in a hurry before, so I didn't think of it." Wen Hua's eyes lit up and he said.
He immediately made arrangements, and a group of dozens of people immediately dispersed, forming a human wall of tens of miles, and slowly pushed forward.
Expanding the search area, Lihuo Guan and his team searched for another hour or two, but still found nothing. However, they met many people from other Observations.
At this moment, the disciples of other temples also began to gather together and take action.
Shi Mu flew forward and looked to the side.
There, a large group of people flew over, and they were disciples of Kun Di Guan.
Shi Mu's heart moved. He had met disciples from the eight major temples of the Lichen Sect, Kundi, Xunfeng, Genshan, and Duize. However, after parting with the green-haired young man from Kanshui Temple and others, Kanshui,
Zhen Lei, Qian Tian and other three people suddenly disappeared.
"Maybe they have found a space passage and have reached the thirteenth floor." He secretly guessed in his mind and became a little anxious.
At this moment, nearly half of the time has passed. If the people of Three Views gather together and continue to go to the top, they are too far behind. Even if they try their best to catch up, they may not be able to catch up.
At this moment, a cheer came from the right.
"Found the space passage!"
Shi Mu was overjoyed, and quickly turned away from the light, and together with the others, flew towards the place where the shout was coming, and soon arrived there.
I saw a white space channel suspended in the air near a snow peak, emitting a shining light. Surprisingly, there were no phantom beasts guarding it.
The Lihuo audience had gathered at this moment, and everyone was in high spirits.
Shi Mu's expression changed slightly. At this moment, Yan Luo and Ximen Xue were standing not far from him, turning their heads to look over.
The three people looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
They had been to this snowy peak before and had not discovered any nearby space passage at that time.
"How could this happen? Could it be that this space channel is moving around?" Shi Mu communicated with Yan Luo mentally.
"Probably not. If this space channel can move, I will definitely be able to detect it. It should be that this space channel was deliberately covered with formation restrictions before, and it was a very clever method, deliberately preventing others from discovering it." Yan Luo
The message from the heart said.
Shi Mu nodded slowly.
As for who did this, don’t think too much, it’s probably related to people from Kanshui Temple, Zhenlei Temple, and Qitian Temple.
He hesitated in his heart, considering whether to inform Wen Hua of this suspicion.
Ximen Xue was standing not far from Wen Hua. He looked at Shi Mu, hesitated for a moment, looked away, and did not come over.
Around them, some of the other Lihuo Temple disciples seemed to have discovered some clues about the space passage here, and they began to discuss in small groups in small groups.
After Shi Mu pondered for a while, he decided not to say anything. After all, these were just his own conjectures without any evidence, so as not to attract attention.
"Okay. Now that the space passage has been discovered, it's time to get ready. Let's go to the thirteenth floor in a quarter of an hour." Wen Hua said.
Along the way, everyone has hunted many phantom beasts, and the gems on the Xuan Qiong Token have already been lit up. Now that the remaining time is less than half, it is natural to seize the time to continue climbing the tower.
After a brief breath adjustment, the Lihuo audience flew into the space passage one by one and arrived at the thirteenth floor of space.
The next moment, Shi Mu's expression changed slightly, and the thirteenth floor was suddenly a gray world.
There is desolate and barren land all around. The ground is dry and cracked, and ravines that are more than ten feet or even a hundred feet long can be seen everywhere. Occasionally, some vegetation grows, and they all appear pitch black.
There were many black clouds floating in the sky, demonic energy billowing in the air, and strong winds howling from time to time.
The feeling given to Shi Mu here was very similar to that near the Pumice Star Sea before.
"The space environment on this level is a bit weird, everyone, be careful. I suggest we act together. Just like before, everyone lined up and searched forward." Wen Hua pondered for a while and said.
The disciples in the Lihuo audience agreed, lined up again, and moved forward slowly.
"According to my inference, the people from Kanshui Temple, Zhenlei Temple, and Qantian Temple may have been here long ago. They may have cast spells to seal the space passage here. We need to be more careful in casting spells to detect." Shi Mu and Yanluo said in a message.
said.
Yan Luo nodded slowly, a faint silver light appeared in his eyes. At the same time, a very light space fluctuation was emitted from his body, covering the surrounding area. (To be continued.)
