Alternative white lotus

Yan Xuezi squeezed the hilt of the sword so hard that even the joints turned white. She suppressed the anger in her heart, put away the sword, and gritted her teeth word by word: "Ning Ze, you will regret it sooner or later."

Ning Ze turned his head directly to talk to Zhang Wenhu, without even looking at her.

Yan Xuezi was still about to speak, when someone exclaimed: "Senior brother Yun won!"

Yan Xuezi hurriedly turned her head to look, and one of the Yun Jian in the field was wearing a blue shirt of Tianxuanmen, with a smile on her face, she bowed her hands to the disciple opposite: "I have accepted."

Tianxuanmen had two victories and one loss, overwhelming Huang Xuangu.

Fang Wensheng's expression was not very good, and he didn't say a word. Ren Zhou Chengtong taunted him, and he quietly arranged for his disciples to compete with several other sects.

After noon, the winners and losers were determined among the five sects.

The rankings from one to five are: Tianxuanmen, Huangxuangu, Wanshoumen, Changyunshanju, Linghai Pavilion.

Ning Ze didn't know until the time of the ranking that the sect whose disciples wore white clothes was Changyun Shanju, which was also a small sect, but it seemed to be stronger than Linghai Pavilion.

Now that the rankings have been determined, the next step is to arrange for the disciples to enter the secret realm.

The first ones to enter were of course the disciples of Tianxuan Sect. The restriction outside the secret area was slowly opened under the influence of the formula. Ning Ze and the other fifteen disciples passed the restriction in an orderly manner and walked to the interior of Changmeng Valley.

Yan Xuezi seemed to be in a bad mood, and walked in slowly behind everyone.When she crossed the restriction and was about to enter Changmeng Valley, she flicked her finger, and some white powder floated up silently, sticking to the corner of Ningze's clothes.

After the disciples entered Changmeng Valley, their figures suddenly became blurred, and then disappeared at the entrance of the valley.Just when the leaders of the sects were about to close the ban, a red shadow suddenly flew from a distance, and flew into the Changmeng Valley from the opened ban passage in an instant!

"It's the Firebird!"

Fang Wensheng's face turned livid.

But at this time, halfway through the spell, he couldn't free his hand to catch the fire bird, so he had to watch the fire bird fly in helplessly.

****

Just stepped into the scope of the Changmeng Valley, Ning Ze felt that when the surrounding scenery changed, he had already arrived in a completely strange place, and the other disciples were no longer around.

Someone had explained to them before they came that Changmeng Valley would randomly send people to different places in the valley. The next thing they have to do is to occupy the places with the most aura before the disciples of other sects come in.

However, Ning Ze came here for another purpose, which is to find July Flower and Zhu Lanxin. In addition, his efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy is relatively low. Even if he cultivates here for half a month, he may not be able to make much progress, so he is not in a hurry. Instead, he decided to look for the spirit grass first.

Changmeng Valley is a huge valley with a mild climate and four seasons like spring.At this time, the flowers are in full bloom, the vegetation is luxuriant, and the cool breeze is blowing, which is quite like a fairyland on earth.

Ning Ze identified the direction on the map, then called out the flying sword and flew towards it.

He is still on the edge of Changmeng Valley. It is marked on the map that he needs to go deeper than ten miles to find traces of herbs.

There is a higher slope, the bottom of the slope faces the sun, and it faces a warm stream. There grows a lot of spiritual grasses that love warmth and sunshine. place.

Ning Ze planned to go there first.

When he arrived at Nuanxi, Ning Ze squatted down and began to look for herbs among the grass.

The Soul Devouring Vine slipped down from his body, almost greedily absorbing the aura in Changmeng Valley.But Xiaopang jumped into the Nuanxi River out of boredom, stretched his neck, and caught a big fish.

Struggling desperately, the fish threw the water off Ning Ze's face by the stream, and was swallowed by Xiaopang in one gulp.

There are a lot of herbs here, but there is no July Orchid that Ning Ze needs.However, Ning Ze still packed all the herbal medicines with enough years in a jade box and put them in the storage ring.

The next sunny place is far away from here, and is already extremely close to the center.

The aura in the center of Changmeng Valley is still strong, but there are monsters running rampant inside. Fortunately, there are restrictions, monsters will not come outside, as long as they don't go in, there will be no danger. Zhou Chengtong has warned them in every possible way before.

When approaching the center, Ning Ze put away his flying sword and prepared to walk there.

There was already a small hill ahead, and Ning Ze quickened his pace.

But at this moment, a strong wind came from behind his head, Ning Ze rolled on the ground subconsciously, a sword light flew towards his head, and lifted the jade hairpin on his head away.

Before Ning Ze could react, a figure had already rushed in front of him.

The Soul Devouring Vine reacted extremely quickly, and immediately rushed out to block it.

The blade stabbed right at the vine and was immediately ejected.

The figure seemed to be a little surprised when he missed the shot, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all.

As soon as she raised her hand, she threw down a few spells.

After the spell was released, it turned into a hurricane, sweeping Ningze into the restriction in the center!

At the moment of entering the restriction, Ning Ze finally saw her face clearly.

On the blue shirt of Tianxuanmen, there is an arrogant and domineering but extremely gorgeous face, her expression is distorted, but there is a cold smile in her eyes, standing outside quietly, watching Ning Ze being swallowed by the restriction.

Yan Xuezi!

It was the first time that Ning Ze wanted to kill her!

However, Ning Ze couldn't do anything at this time. The moment he entered, countless dense charms floated up in the restriction, and the violent spiritual power impacted his body, making him faint instantly.

And the Soul Eater Vine and Xiaopang outside didn't care about Yan Xuezi outside, and followed Ning Ze and jumped in.

***

"Are you awake?" the voice of Soul Eater Vine sounded in his mind.

Ning Ze sat up and saw that there were messy stones all around him. He was under a mountain wall. The sky was gray and he couldn't see the scene in the distance clearly.

"Is this the central area?" Ning Ze asked Soul Eater Vine.

Soul-eating vine shook the vine: "I don't know, probably."

……

Ning Ze stood up, rubbed his forehead, walked forward for a certain distance, and looked up at the mountain wall.

The mountain wall is not high, but there is no trace of the restriction. It is obvious that this is not the junction of the central area and the periphery of Changmeng Valley. If you want to go out, you have to find the edge of the restriction.

The map does not include the central area, so Ning Ze only needs to choose a direction and walk forward to see if he can find any clues.

Changmeng Valley has a radius of nearly a hundred miles, and most of it belongs to the central area. It is not easy to find the direction here.

After walking a few steps, there was a rustling sound behind him.

Ning Ze took out his flying sword and slashed across.

A half-human centipede between the rocks was cut into two by him, and black blood flowed all over the ground.

A centipede that doesn't matter.

Ning Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

The sleepy Xiaopang's eyes lit up, and he ran over bouncingly.

Ning Ze was still a little strange, it had already pecked the centipede into several sections.

The centipede was covered in black and blue, and it looked extremely poisonous.

Ning Ze was taken aback, and hurried up to grab it by the neck: "This is not edible!"

Xiaopang struggled desperately for a few times, and jumped out of his hand. Like a chicken pecking at rice, he swallowed the centipede in two or three bites.

Ning Ze hastily looked at the whole body of it several times carefully, and probed it several times with spiritual power, and found nothing unusual, so he was relieved.

But Xiaopang didn't care about Ning Ze's fuss, he shook his head in disdain, rolled his eyelids, and returned to his half-asleep and half-awake appearance.

At this time, Ning Ze gradually had an idea in his mind: I am afraid that Xiao Fei is really not a crane.

But what kind of bird it is, he himself doesn't know.Although the booklet in my mind introduced some spiritual objects, it only introduced parts of the body that could be used to make alchemy and medicine, Xiaopang was not one of them.

One person, one bird, one vine continued to move forward, worried about encountering any dangerous monsters, Ning Ze did not dare to fly with the sword, but ran forward with his legs.

"The direction is still not right." Ning Ze stopped, rubbed his forehead with some annoyance, and kept using Yufengjue to drive on the road, and the monsters that appeared on the road from time to time made him a little exhausted.

It seems that there is no day and night here, four or five hours have passed, and it is logically already midnight, but the sky here is still gray, without any change.

The soul-eating vine stretched out its thin vines, as if it was feeling something.

And Xiaopang also shook his head, looking around anxiously.

In front of him was a small piece of woods, the trees were dense, the ground was damp and cold, and he looked like he hadn't seen the sun.

Ning Ze didn't dare to go deep, looked outside several times, and was thinking about whether to go through to have a look, but seeing the appearance of Soul Eater Vine and Xiaopang, he hesitated again.

"Boom—" There was a loud noise ahead, and the entire forest shook three times.

One person, one bird and one vine glanced at each other, and decided to avoid the limelight first.

Ning Ze was lucky. He only encountered one monster above the foundation stage along the way, and it was solved by the Soul Devouring Vine.

Looking at the momentum in the forest now, I am afraid that it will definitely not be limited to the foundation building period.

The soul-eating vine is now at the fifth level of foundation building, Xiaopang... Although the cultivation level seems to be good, it really doesn't look like it can fight.

There are many rocky caves nearby, which are completely different from the surrounding areas.

Ning Ze spotted a pile of rubble and was about to hide in it, but the trees in front of him fell to the ground one after another. A huge monster three or four feet high flew from a distance, dragging a long trace on the ground.

It seemed to be struggling, but another human-shaped black shadow flew from the front, stomped heavily on its chest, and stretched out its hand to grab it.

The dim mountain forest suddenly lit up, and colorful lights flowed.

The black figure held a flowing inner alchemy in his hand, threw it directly into his mouth, and then cast his eyes on Ning Ze.

At this moment, Ning Ze finally saw its appearance clearly: it was a chimpanzee with thick and shiny black hair, a pair of eyes glowing red, and long fangs protruding from its mouth.

Seeing Ning Ze look over, it opened the corner of its mouth and revealed a frightening smile.
