Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, which could be heard in such a strong wind because there were many people making the commotion and their voices were loud.
Zhang Baoer and others hurried away quickly. When they arrived at the place where the crowd gathered, everyone opened their eyes wide with disbelief.
The land in front of you suddenly broke off, and was replaced by a cliff that was several miles long. Although the rocks on the cliff were uneven due to the influence of weathering, if you look far away on both sides, you will find that this cliff is like a huge handle.
It looks like it was cut into slices with a long knife.
There is also a cliff ten miles away on the opposite side. On top of the cliff is Tongtian Peak, which is covered by tornado clouds. However... there is a deep valley about two or three miles wide in the middle of the cliff spreading towards the top of Tongtian Peak. The deep valley forms an inversion with this place.
Written with the 'T' letter.
The cliff is about four or five miles high, and there is still thick fog shrouded below. However, everyone can vaguely see the dilapidated and devastated land in the fog, and there is suspected to be the existence of the skeleton of a giant beast.
However, these are not what everyone cares about, because everyone's eyes are attracted to the end of the deep valley: there are countless mottled steps at the bottom of the valley, like gray-white terraces spreading along the depths of the deep valley, and there is suspected to be green vegetation at the end.
The dilapidated palace was just obscured by thick fog, so the view was not very clear - the last time the storm and tornado retreated was not as far away as this time, so it was not possible to see clearly at that time.
"Could it be that at the end of the deep valley is the ruins of an ancient sect?!"
I don't know who shouted, and everyone's eyes became hot and they wanted to rush there immediately.
Suddenly, a Zhenfu powerful man spoke, his eyes were red and he was licking his lips and said:
"I have practiced a technique to improve my eyesight, but... there are no living or dead bodies in the ruins below, so..."
At this point, one person screamed and shouted:
"All those people from last time went in there?!"
"Walk!"
Not only did someone yell, dozens of people jumped out and fell deep into the cliff.
"They're fine!"
Seeing that they landed safely, everyone no longer hesitated and flew down one after another.
Shan Yuanyuan and the other three also flew down. Wu Yaner, who looked anxious, quickly cast her eyes on Zhang Baoer. Zhang Baoer was still hesitant, but at this moment, Haiping, who looked a little excited, pointed to somewhere and said
:
"It is said that the place where there is dust washing water is in that direction!"
Zhang Baoer's eyes suddenly lit up, because although that direction was not the same as the deep valley, the angle between the two was not much different. Haiping continued:
"It stands to reason that it is impossible to enter or exit that kind of tornado cloud. Could that person also pass through here?!"
Hearing this, Zhang Baoer looked at Jiang Xiaoming who looked pleading, nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Then let's go take a look..."
When they heard that Zhang Baoer decided to go, a group of people were overjoyed, and Wu Yaner even shouted with joy.
However, just when Wu Yaner was about to jump off, he quickly stopped her:
"Miss Wu, just in case something unexpected happens, if we are trapped by the tornado cloud before we come out, please those of you left behind to help me bring a few words to Zhuo Leng and others at the Sanse Building in Feixue Town..."
Wu Yaner immediately responded and said a few words to a middle-aged man behind her who had a look of pity on her face. The man immediately stepped forward to listen to Zhang Baoer's words.
This person is not accompanying him this time. He has to stay here just in case something unexpected happens. If the people here are trapped like last time, he will be responsible for returning to the palace to deliver the message.
There are many people like him, and various forces have also left people behind. In case there are only a few people left behind like last time, all other forces have a dark look and have to inquire about the situation from the forces that have left people behind——
Let’s not talk about the price, the favor is owed.
After everything was explained clearly, Zhang Baoer and others took advantage of Master Huang's real residence and went down the cliff.
When we were halfway down the cliff, there was no strong wind, and there was a faint smell of decay in the air, but there was no stench of dead bodies and blood... Zhang Baoer's heart finally calmed down a little.
What he cares most about is not whether he can get anything from this trip, but whether he can leave alive when the time comes. He has already thought about it. If something goes wrong then, he will retreat here. It doesn't matter even if the tornado cloud blocks the return.
Next year...you should be able to come in and out like today, right?
When the unicorn's feet stepped on the ground, some dust immediately rolled up under their feet. This made Zhang Baoer's heart determined - since these dusts exist, that is to say, even if there is a tornado cloud above, it will not have any impact on this place.
, otherwise everything here would have been blown away by the strong wind.
All you can see is a dark gray color, ruined walls and the skeletons of giant beasts, with decayed broken knives and swords everywhere; there seemed to be buildings here before, and although I can't tell what style they were, they were at least
It proves that this place was once a place where humans lived.
Zhang Baoer hugged Cai'er and got off the horse, then took out the animal skin gloves and put them on, then squatted on the ground and picked up a long and thick thigh bone to look at it.
"Brother Zhang, what are you doing?!"
Wu Yaner and others had already made up their mind to advance and retreat together with Zhang Baoer and the others, so they were not as eager to leave as others. After seeing Zhang Baoer's behavior, she came over with bright big eyes.
Zhang Baoer didn't look at her, frowned and stared at the bones and murmured:
"Look at this, these are tens of thousands of years old, if not a hundred thousand years old. After such a long time, the swords have decayed, but these bones are still there... Although they can be crushed now, how old were they once?
How hard is it?!”
When Wu Yan'er was wondering what he was doing, he suddenly stood up and almost hit Wu Yan'er's head.
Wu Yaner was so embarrassed that she quickly took a step away, only to see him suddenly pointing to the hill-like skeleton not far away and asking Haiping:
"Senior, do you know what kind of giant beast's skeleton that is?"
Haiping didn't answer immediately. He took a few steps to walk around the giant beast's skeleton and took a look. After walking around in a circle, he shook his head and said with a bitter smile:
"I can't tell... This skeleton has three neck bones, and it seems to have three heads, but the body doesn't seem too long, it doesn't look like a giant python... I really can't tell! But..."
"But what?!"
Seeing his frown, Zhang Baoer quickly asked.
Haiping suddenly broke the largest bone with one palm, then pointed at the fracture and said:
"The color is light yellow and golden... It can still be preserved after so many years! This beast was at least a mid-term beast king during its lifetime! Moreover, its bloodline must be very high-ranking!"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod. Zhang Baoer originally wanted to explore again, but thinking that the items that were intact might have been picked up by others... he finally gave up the idea and walked towards the depths of the valley with everyone.
.
The speed of everyone was not slow, because thousands of people had already walked this road before them, so there should not be any danger.
Soon after, they passed through a platform covering an area of about forty or fifty feet, and then stepped on the stone steps about three feet wide. They also saw clearly that the spots they saw at high places were either damaged areas.
Or the place where the body had been lying.
"Miss Wu!"
After thinking for a while, Zhang Baoer said to Wu Yaner on the side:
"It's not advisable to stay up there for a long time. There are not only humans but also monsters here, and I don't know what happened to the storm and tornado... Please inform the big brother on the cliff and let him leave first, and come back to investigate in two or three days.
.”
Wu Yaner thought about it and thought it made sense, so she sent someone to inform that person.
At the same time, Wu Yan'er took out a small disk. There was a red pointer on the disk, which was very similar to the earth's compass, but there were no scales, only some strange lines - Zhang Bao'er knew that those were formation patterns.
When Wu Yan'er poured spiritual power into the disc, the red pointer not only glowed faintly but also moved, pointing straight into the depths of the valley.
Seeing this, Wu Yaner was overjoyed and said loudly:
"My brother did get inside. Although he seemed to be injured, he was still alive!"
At this moment, the man returned, and the group of people continued to move forward and entered the steps in the fog.
"Um?!"
After about half an hour, they finally reached the end. The fog disappeared in front of them, and their eyes suddenly became clear.
The first thing that catches the eye is the densely packed tall trees. The steps under the feet are transformed into a huge stone brick road, which goes straight through the trees with no end in sight.
There are cliffs on the edge of the trees on both sides. Looking around, I can see that this is a huge valley. The valley covers an area of about ten miles. There are dilapidated high-rise buildings in the middle. There are gray and white wind and tornadoes in the sky.
Although there was wind here, it was not strong. Zhang Baoer looked at these trees with great curiosity, wondering how they could grow so lushly in this dark place... However, he found that he had not seen these trees before.
Others said they didn't know.
He tried it and found that these trees were vigorous and tough, with a texture like iron, and exuded a refreshing and mysterious fragrance.
Afterwards, the group continued to move forward along the dark tree-lined road towards the center of the valley.
"It's strange...why can't I see any living things, not even insects or ants!"
As he was walking, Master Huang, who was wearing a tiger head hat, suddenly grunted.
Hearing this, Zhang Baoer was stunned and immediately asked everyone to stop.
"Master, go to the forest and take a look..."
As soon as he said this, several screams suddenly came from far ahead. Everyone's hearts sank, and they all took out their weapons to prepare for it.
Zhang Baoer quickly turned to Wu Yaner and said:
"Miss Wu, where is your brother?!"
Wu Yaner took out her life chart, then pointed to the side of the forest and said:
"This way!"
At this moment, the screams in front stopped and were replaced by the sounds of ridicule and curses.
Although Zhang Baoer didn't know what happened, he thought about it and decided not to move forward and headed in the direction of Wu Yaner's brother.
It may be that there have been no human beings or living things for tens of thousands of years, and the trees are very dense. Fortunately, everyone did not intend to 'leave', and walked into the true mansion of Master Huang and an old woman respectively and flew from the sky.
"Eh?!"
Zhang Baoer suddenly pointed to the edge of the cliff and said:
"How come there are so many caves on those cliffs?!"
Everyone was surprised, but they didn't intend to get close. It was urgent to find him now.
It didn't take long, only a dozen breaths, before they stopped in front of a dilapidated hall, where dozens of people were already searching.
Zhang Baoer and others raised their heads one after another, because there was a huge plaque above the main hall, with two stylus and silver hooks written on it: Dan Pavilion.
This building is very similar to the ones outside. It is a stone and wood structure, but all the wood has decayed and disappeared, leaving only a sloping frame stone building with countless holes standing there.
The floor in the temple is covered with ashes and weeds are spreading. Because someone has been here, the ashes are covered with dense footprints.
As soon as Zhang Baoer and others arrived, they saw Gong Renjie and a group of eleven people. However, they had no intention of coming over to say hello. They bowed from a distance and left.
The pointer of the birth chart pointed directly at this point, slightly downwards. Half of the stone building was embedded in a dark sealed stone mountain at the back. There was no other entrance, so Zhang Baoer and others walked into the main hall.
As soon as I walked in, I heard all kinds of curses and sighs, because those who arrived here first found that there were no valuable things left in the hall, and everyone guessed that those who came last year took it away.
Seeing this, everyone no longer had the idea of exploring. They followed the pointer through the Canggu Hall, which covered an area of several hundred square meters, and then walked deeper from one side. From the left and right, this place was already located in the sealed
Within the stone mountain.
"Um?!"
Zhang Baoer suddenly frowned, looked at the two-foot high and wide passage ahead and said to Master Huang:
"It smells of blood, be careful and take out the glowing stone!"
"Blood?!"
"Door?! Stone door!"
When Master Huang took out the luminous stone, everyone saw two large dark stone doors that were closed at the end of the darkness. There were blood stains on the stone doors and on the ground, as well as a few broken steps and broken weapons, everywhere.
There were signs of a fight, but no bodies were found.
After seeing nothing unusual, everyone moved forward cautiously. When they arrived at the door, Haiping frowned and looked at the blood on the ground and said:
"It was left three or four days ago! There seems to be blood from other creatures... Eh?! It turns out to be light green!"
Zhang Baoer nodded, looked at Shimen and said:
"There are marks and scratches on the stone door!"
"Open the door!"
Wu Yaner, who was full of anxiety, shouted loudly and ordered people to come forward and push the stone door open.
However... with the combined efforts of the two late Nascent Souls, the stone gate did not move at all!
"It seems like... a star stone!"
An old woman suddenly pointed at a bright scratch and shouted.
When I heard the sound, I saw faint crystal white dots flickering there!
"Hey!"
Bang!
Master Huang punched the door. The door trembled slightly, and the dust on it shook off, revealing a flash of color like the stars in the night sky. He shouted with gleaming eyes:
"Sure enough, it's the meteorite stone... I've made a fortune!"
Hai Ping took a breath of cold air, pointed to one side of the stone wall where he had brushed off the dust and said:
"What a grand gesture! This stone mountain is probably made of star stones! It's hard to say that this valley was created by star stones!"
These words made everyone's eyes heat up, but at this moment, Wu Yan'er roared with a ferocious expression:
