Baihu carried him through the mountains and forests, and after about eight days, he finally approached the Sunset Gorge.
The seventy-two caves that Xia Mang entered from the Sunset Gorge naturally had to leave from the Sunset Gorge.
In front of the Sun Never Sets Canyon, Xia Mang looked at the purple divine sun hanging in the air at the end, his eyes changed slightly, and said to himself: "After all, I was unable to see the true Sun Never Sets Sword Intent, it's a pity...
"
The Sun Never Sets Sword Intention is one of the "Extreme Swords" and a sword of righteousness. Xia Mang covets it very much. Unfortunately, the Sun Never Sets royal family will not allow it to be leaked.
"Luoyang is the true successor of Sword Intent that the Sun Never Sets."
Bai Hu said: "This time there is chaos in Guiyang Pass, Luoyang should have gone to Guiyang Pass to slay demons and eliminate demons... Well, speaking of it, Guiyang Pass is the most lively place, but you have to leave and cannot participate in the war.
, what a pity.”
"Seventy-Two Cave is not a vegetarian. The chaos in Guiyangguan should be put down soon." Xia Mang shook his head and said to himself: "As for Luoyang... there will always be opportunities to fight in the future."
The Seventy-Two Cave has such a rich foundation. It has been suppressing the demons and ghosts in the ruins for many years without any major troubles. This is not due to luck, but to strength. The chaos will surely be pacified soon.
Xia Mang jumped across the Sun Never Set Gorge, glanced back at Baihu Lake, and said with a smile: "I said I would give you your freedom. I hope we can see you again in the future."
"Never again!" Bai Hu rolled his eyes.
Xia Mang chuckled lightly, waved towards Baihu, turned his back to the direction of Sunset Gorge, and strode away.
Behind him, Bai Hu looked at Xia Mang's back for a moment and then left, returning to the Seventy-Two Cave. He was going to the Ghost Demon Pass to join the battle.
Suppressing demons and slaying demons is the duty of every creature in the Seventy-Two Cave.
According to rumors from the outside world, the Seventy-Two Cave is home to the world's giant owls and demons, with dragons and snakes mixed together, making it a place of great evil. In fact, they have been guarding the Ghost Demon Pass for generations to protect the peace of the place.
At the end of the Sun Never Set Gorge, the everlasting purple sun trembled slightly, and washed out thousands of beams of light, spreading the sky with auspicious clouds, making it extremely dazzling.
In the purple sun, a huge eye suddenly opened. The eyes were pitch black, like a black hole, and extremely scary.
The huge black eyes looked towards the direction where Xia Mang left, and suddenly a voice of vicissitudes came out: "The ruins of Tai'e, the green sun of Taichu, the years have reversed, and they have reappeared in the world... Is this a cycle of cause and effect, or a reincarnation of fate?"
"That sword's faint glow is a bit interesting."
The voice coming from the giant black eye was ancient and vicissitudes of life, but also a bit playful, "The son of Xia Shaohuang, the son of Xia Wushang, who has been silent forever, has come to Canglan. It's really interesting..."
…
Xiamang wears stars and wears the moon, walking alone.
I don't know how long it took, but he finally returned to Qifeng Valley, but he didn't stop here. He climbed up Fengyu Cliff along the huge sycamore tree.
After passing through the sycamore forest, several days passed, and one evening, he finally returned to Nanzhao Mansion.
About two hours later, he arrived at the ancestral temple, but instead of going to the ancestral temple to see the mute old man, he went directly back to the small courtyard next to the ancestral temple.
At this time, a slender figure stood in front of the courtyard door. She stood in front of the door, her expression calm and peaceful, neither anxious nor impatient, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Xia Mang stopped and looked at Xue Nianchu in front of the door.
At that moment, the bright moon was thousands of miles away, the stars were brilliant, and a beautiful figure was covered with clear moonlight, quietly stopping and waiting.
This picture has been frozen in time since then, engraved in the depths of Xia Mang's heart, and will never be forgotten.
Xia Mang looked at Xue Nianchu at this moment, his eyes soft and full of warmth.
He never knew that no matter when he left, no matter how far he went, no matter when he came back, there would be a woman standing behind him, looking from a distance, with bare hands, praying sincerely, just for his safe return.
Even if this woman is blind, her eyes are hollow and she cannot see.
Xia Mang walked towards Xue Nianchu, his steps were very light, as if he was afraid of scaring the woman in front of him.
Xue Nianchu's eyes were dull, but her hearing was very good. Although Xia Mang's steps were light, they could not hide her from her. She raised a bright smile at the corner of her mouth and said softly: "Xiao Ling is back."
"It's me."
Xia Mang stepped forward quickly, took Xue Nianchu's cold hands, frowned slightly and said, "It's cold outside, why did you come out?"
Xue Nianchu smiled slightly, but did not explain.
Xia Mang didn't ask any further questions. He held Xue Nianchu's hand and returned to the thatched cottage.
In the room, Xia Mang helped Xue Nianchu sit on the bed, and then lit the red stove. The fire rose and the room quickly became much warmer.
"Have you had any episodes of cold syndrome during this period?"
Xia Mang asked, Xue Nianchu's cold syndrome would attack every once in a while, and that was also the most difficult time for her. When Xia Mang left, this was what she was most worried about.
Xue Nianchu shook her head slightly and said: "After I took the phoenix marrow, I also carried the sycamore bone with me, and the cold syndrome no longer occurred."
Mu Chu brought back the remaining half of the Wutong bone to her. She now had a complete Wutong bone in her body, and she had taken phoenix marrow. Indeed, she had not suffered from cold symptoms for a long time.
"How was your trip? Have you ever been in danger?" Xue Nianchu wanted to know Xia Mang's situation.
Xia Mang did not go into details. He mentioned many dangerous things in one sentence and mainly mentioned some interesting things. He was also afraid that Xue Nianchu would be worried.
Finally, Xia Mang said: "I will tell you these things slowly in the future." He let Xue Nianchu rest and left the room.
He went directly to the ancestral temple.
In front of the ancestral temple, the mute old man was still carving wood carvings. When he noticed Xia Mang approaching, he slowly raised his head and looked at Xia Mang. A strange color flashed across his turbid eyes and said: "I really found the Ksitigarbha Pagoda.
, your trip is considered complete."
After Xia Mang obtained the Human Spirit Pagoda at the ancestral temple, it was under the guidance of the mute old man that he decided to go to the Seventy-Two Cave to look for traces of the Ksitigarbha Pagoda.
"It's a pity that I couldn't get back the Phoenix Heart and Bone." Xia Mang shook his head.
"The heart of the Phoenix is not in the Seventy-Two Cave?" The dumb old man's snow-white eyebrows twitched slightly, and he said to himself: "It shouldn't be..."
"Twenty years ago." Xia Mang said.
"Twenty years ago?"
"Yes!" Xia Mang nodded, "Twenty years ago, someone went deep into the Immortal Wasteland and forcibly took away half of the Phoenix Heart..."
The mute old man was suddenly enlightened and said to himself: "Twenty years ago, I was in a critical situation of life and death, but I missed some things..." He paused and asked: "Who can actually take advantage of that old and immortal thing?
To take away the heart and soul of Phoenix?"
In his impression, the Immortal Ancestor was not easy to deal with when he was in danger of death. If he could snatch the heart and bone of the Phoenix from his hands, he would definitely be the most powerful person in the world.
Xia Mang was about to speak when a plain voice came from afar: "It's Pei Muya."
Xia Mang suddenly turned around and looked at the powerful man coming in the distance under the moonlight. His pupils shrank suddenly and he said in a deep voice: "Xuelong Yong!"
