There are bandits in Zhongshan

Seeing that all the attacks were cut by Liu Hanyan, Fairy Yuyuan's expression gradually changed from one of victory to disbelief.

In order to win the Chong Xiao Sword as soon as possible, she was merciless in her strikes, but Liu Hanyan was only at the stage of transformation, and had been injured before, so she was able to gain an invincible position under her stormy offensive.

This is simply not possible!

She looked at those impersonal purple eyes and shouted, "Who are you!"

Suddenly, the colossal thing in the center of the spirit array vibrated suddenly, and the flames surrounding it gradually receded, revealing the gleaming inscriptions underneath. The roar of the giant beast sounded ethereal as if it came from outside the sky, but it seemed to wake up the entire ice field for a long time.

The sea of ​​fire under the spirit array suddenly boiled up, and the calamity fires gushed out one after another, lingering around the thing, but they didn't get close to it, but just wandered around, as if caught in a vortex of spiritual power.

"It's done!" Yu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly burst into ecstasy.

Although Liu Hanyan destroyed the magic circles used to resist the fire, the remaining heat continued, and at the last moment, relying on the fire on the surface, he was able to accomplish great success.

The roar of the giant beast continued, and the Chongxiao Sword followed it with bursts of chirping sounds, as if to echo it. Liu Hanyan turned her head, and the murderous intent in her purple eyes gradually receded. She let go of her hand, but in the next moment she showed determination. With a long body, he rose up and swept towards the high platform like a gust of wind.

"Don't even think about it!" Yu Yuan seemed to have guessed her intentions, he was furious, he pushed forward with both hands, immediately gathered a wave of spiritual power, and struck at Liu Hanyan like a sharp arrow.

This blow condensed her thousands of years of skill, even if it was herself, she couldn't resist it with her body.

However, Liu Hanyan did not evade, and endured the blow, and then took advantage of the momentum to leap to the top of the high platform. As soon as she stood still, she spurted a mouthful of blood, which landed on the heavy sword, and the evil spirit that had gradually dissipated Gathering together again, she swayed and leaped high again, holding the sword in both hands, even her body turned into a part of the sword and slashed down, rushing down with all the evil spirit.

Yu Yuan couldn't help but let out a scream, and ran to the high platform in a flash, and pushed out with another palm.This time Liu Hanyan couldn't bear it any longer, his body was thrown high by the huge spiritual power, like a kite with a broken string, he fell into the flames.Before Yu Yuan could breathe a sigh of relief, his eyes fell on the high platform, his face suddenly turned pale, and there was a bit of panic in his often calm eyes.

Liu Hanyan actually let go of the sword in his hand when he received her second palm, and now he saw the Chongxiao sword deeply inserted into the high platform, leaving only a small half of the sword outside. The streamers on the screen echo each other.

The next moment, the high platform vibrated again, shaking the entire mountain. Yu Yuan rushed over and wanted to draw out the sword, but when she touched the hilt, she felt the sword's aura surging, and she hurriedly twirled to prop up the barrier The bodyguard was still thrown out by the shock.

Afterwards, there was a shrill howling sound, it was unknown whether it came from the high platform or the Chongxiao Sword, the blood color and the light blue aura intertwined together, suddenly erupting with overwhelming power.

The gravel flew, the ground was uprooted, and the entire sword furnace seemed to be held by an invisible giant hand, and everything was twisted.Then there were continuous roaring and cracking sounds. The flames surpassed each other, and the evil spirit surged like flooding water. The monks opened their barriers one after another, but they were crushed immediately before opening a layer, and the ground under their feet was torn apart. The tens of thousands of years of sword casting platform also shattered into several pieces in the turbulent spiritual power, and rolled into the sea of ​​flames one after another.

The sky is dark, the wind is surging, the mountains are collapsing, and the ground fire is running, just like the catastrophe recorded in the book is about to come.

"Over there, what's the matter?" Zhu Maolin pointed to the northwest, surprised.

After the snowstorm, a flame shot up, burning the small half of the sky red.

Lu Lin held down the buzzing Qingyang, and said coldly: "It's Zhuoguang Mountain, it seems that there is something extraordinary there, not just one."

Only when the gods collide can such power erupt.

"Azhu, you're still there..." Baili Ningqing said softly. She had a wild temper and liked to fight with Zhong Mingzhu. Glancing at Mo Chenxiang, seeing that she was concentrating on practicing her kung fu, she frowned, but finally she endured the urging words.

Fairy Yuyuan set up numerous obstacles on the mountain path, all built with her spiritual power, they are firm and difficult to break, although they are not very subtle, but it will take a lot of time to solve them.If it wasn't for Mo Chenxiang's proficiency in the secret arts of the five spirits sect to draw out the ray of Yuyuan's blood essence from Huo Cheng's bloodline, and then Zhu Maolin used it as a base to perform the technique, they might still be blocked a hundred miles away.

Right now, Mo Chenxiang couldn't bear the white air rising from his head, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, as if it was a critical moment to cast a spell. Although there was a bamboo forest to protect the spell, Baili Ningqing still didn't dare to disturb him easily, and could only let his anxiety spread in his heart.

It has to be done quickly... She looked at the faint crimson color of the sky, and felt that the sense of ominousness became more and more obvious.

what happened?

Changli opened her eyes and found that she was buried under several stones. She took a breath and found that there was no pain all over her body, so she stretched out her hands to touch the stones on her body. There was a faint light of fire, and complex emotions flashed across his eyes.

Just like before, Zhong Mingzhu's fire protected her.

But why did you keep it from me, and even—— She thought of the black robe that was engulfed in flames, and felt her heart stabbed.Pursing her lips, she tried her best to suppress the distracting thoughts, then pushed away the stones and walked out of the ruins.

After seeing the surrounding situation clearly, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in astonishment as she was always indifferent.

She remembered that not long ago, she was still on the ice sheet and was pulled by Ruoye, but at this moment, she seemed to have fallen into the depths of the ground, surrounded by heat waves, mixed with sparks flying around, with dark rocks under her feet, and the fire not far away Raging, like a dark red river, slowly flowing, melting everything it passes through.

She looked up and saw a line of white snow on the dark top, and thought that it should be connected to the outside world, and she could go out from there. The next moment, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.

——She couldn't fly with restraint.

Ordinary people would probably be thrown into chaos when encountering such a situation, but she was only in a daze for a moment, then drew out her sword and swung it lightly, realizing that her spiritual power was still there, she focused her attention on exploring the surroundings.

Soon, she heard a cry for help coming from ahead, and she immediately ran to where the sound came from. There was a cliff, and Ruoye grabbed a crack on the cliff with one hand, hung on the cliff, and most of her body had already sunk into the cliff. In the fire, there were big and small burns on her body. If she hadn't used Yaoqin to form an enchantment to protect herself, she might have been buried in the sea of ​​flames.

There is no way to fly here, and all her energy is used to resist the fire, and she will be engulfed by the sea of ​​​​fire if she relaxes a little bit. Therefore, although she is safe for a while, in the long run, when her strength is exhausted, she will be swept away by the fire sooner or later. Seeing that Chang Li leaned out half of his body, she was overjoyed at first, but immediately exclaimed: "Quickly step back, this fire is very domineering!" .

Changli Nianjue released a ray of spiritual power, wrapped around Ruoye's wrist to pull her up, but he didn't pull her up at all.

It turned out that those robbery fires seemed to be alive, and they were constantly pulling Ruoye down. Changli calmed down, and with a swipe of the sword twist, the long sword flew out of the sword box, turning into a stream of light, engulfing Ruoye's flames Going, the sword light flashed, and the fire near Ruoye dissipated for a while, at this time she raised her other hand violently, and pulled Ruoye up. He ran away from the cliff, and then he saw a wave of flames jumping up and rushing towards her. If she didn't avoid it quickly, she would have to be dragged down again.

Seeing the raging flames, Chang Li was taken aback for a moment, before she could dodge, she saw the menacing flame split into two and avoided her.

At this time, Ruoye had opened the distance, and with a shake of Yaoqin, he pushed the fire dragon back. After a long time, seeing the change in Weisheng, he said with lingering fear: "Why don't they attack you?"

Changli shook his head, and then he caught a glimpse of the bright and dark flames on his body, and his heart suddenly understood. Ruoye also noticed a faint layer of flames around her, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that Zhong Mingzhu cast a spell to protect you ,No wonder."

If it is the same robbery fire, it will not be harmed.

"Where is this place?" Ruoye cast a spell to wipe away the burn marks on his body while looking around.

Chang Li said: "I don't know, maybe it's underground."

At that time, she was stopped by Ruoye to inquire about Zhong Mingzhu's whereabouts. Ruoye said that the road to the south was blocked by Yu Yuan's barriers, and she was not familiar with formation techniques, so she had to turn to Zhong Mingzhu for help if she wanted to leave.

Before she could answer, she heard the continuous roar from Zhuoguang Mountain, and then there was a burst of earth-shaking, and when she woke up, she was already here.

Like her, Ruoye found the white line on the top after looking around, but she already knew that it was impossible to fly here, so she made an annoyed voice before trying: "The spiritual energy here is disordered, and I don't know what's going on." She suddenly thought of something, spread her hands, and there was a simple mirror in her palm.

The streamlines on the Eight Desolation Mirror are inconstant, buzzing from time to time, and when they appear, the stream fire under the cliff rises several feet high. Seeing this, Ruoye thought, "Could it be a god?"

Today's magic tools in the cultivation world, even if several magic tools in the cave realm are stacked, they can't make the entire mountain collapse.And those calamity fires should have been contaminated with the domineering aura in the artifact, so they wanted to annex the Eight Desolation Mirror, which is also a sacred object.

Changli caught a glimpse of the Eight Desolation Mirror, and felt something trembling in the depths of the spiritual sea, subconsciously took a step back, staring at the same dark mirror with his dark eyes, his body tensed up.

Seeing this, Ruoye remembered all the criticisms she had received in Liuhe Pagoda that day, smiled apologetically, put away the Eight Desolation Mirror, and said, "Let's find a way to leave first."

"This mirror, the Eight Desolation Mirror..." Chang Li asked thoughtfully, "Will we be able to find her?"

"Her? Zhong Mingzhu?" Ruoye hesitated. Hearing Changli's "hmm", she frowned, looked at Changli, and then at the sparks flying nearby, feeling a little uncertain.

When Changli sent a letter to Longtian Li, Zhong Mingzhu actually sent a letter to Muyun and Ruoye, telling them that he had told Changli about the past, and he and her had temporarily settled their suspicions.

But Ruoye always felt that Changli was a little weird. When he mentioned Zhong Mingzhu, he was not angry, but he didn't have any expectations. There was hesitation between the lines, as if he was struggling.

"You still want to seek revenge from her?" Ruoye asked tentatively.

Chang Li pursed his lips, and after a long silence, he said softly: "I want to find her and ask some questions."

How many things are still hidden from her, why do you do this, why do you use her——

Thinking of the word "use", she felt a soreness welling up in her heart, which was almost unbearable.

Seeing her lowering her eyes, Ruoye showed sadness on her pale face, her heart was shocked, she couldn't help holding her hand and said: "Did she do something else to make you unhappy?" Chang Lishui Without saying a word, she said again: "This person has a bad stomach, no one can guess what she is thinking, but she has not given up looking for you for so many years, knowing that it is a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, she will also go there. If she has a bad mouth, Don't worry about it either. At worst, I'll scold her for you when I find her."

She often complained about the inhumanity of long distance, but now seeing the fragility between her brows, her heart softened, and she thought of a lot of words to comfort her, and even mentioned such things as scolding Zhong Mingzhu, completely forgetting that she was more than Once, he was furious and speechless after being provoked by Zhong Mingzhu's few words.

Apart from Zhong Mingzhu, no one else has ever treated her like this. Others are either in awe or through the rules of the teacher's order. Ruoye's frankness and enthusiasm surprised Changli a little.Although she had heard about the past from Zhong Mingzhu, and knew that she and Ruoye had intersected several times, but from other people's mouth, it finally seemed unfamiliar. In addition, Ruoye was Zhong Mingzhu's helper, she didn't know who the other party was. He didn't know Zhong Mingzhu's plan, so he was always on guard against her.Seeing her sincere expression now, there doesn't seem to be any perfunctory, a bit of relief suddenly appeared in the bottom of her heart that had been shrouded in confusion for a long time, she withdrew her hand a little embarrassedly, and then said softly: "Thank you."

Afterwards, the two found an open space away from the cliff and would not be disturbed by the fire. Ruoye took out the Eight Desolation Mirror, twisted a handful of spirit stones, and carved runes on the ground. Changli suddenly found those runes and Zhong Ming The patterns drawn during the candle array were very similar, so he asked, "What are these patterns?"

Ruoye kept his hands on, and replied in his mouth: "This is my clan's script, inherited from the ancient gods, not my clan, not only can't understand it, but I can't even copy it."

Chang Li tried it, and found that it was true. Once she tried to follow the drawing, either she would lose her appearance, or her mind would suddenly become foggy, and she would stop her movements unconsciously. After thinking for a moment, she said, "She will do it too."

"What?" Ruoye was startled, paused her hands, and then said thoughtfully after a while, "So that's the case, no wonder she can think of this way to drive the Eight Desolation Mirror."

"You do not know?"

"Zhong Mingzhu seldom talks about her own affairs." Ruoye frowned, "I used to only know that Lu Lin knew the scriptures. They are like brothers and sisters. Maybe they really come from the same line. She knows what to say." It's not surprising." After a while, she suddenly said "ah", and said angrily, "Zhong Mingzhu lied to me again!"

"What?" Chang Li asked.

"When you were trapped in the Liuhe Pagoda, the mantra was engraved in the pagoda. She clearly recognized it, but she couldn't explain it to me, and asked me to explain it to her word by word!" Just as the last stroke was finished, Ruoye stood up and punched Kong Kong angrily, "I have to ask her for an explanation."

"Is she always lying to people like this..." Chang Li murmured, "Why didn't she tell you the truth."

However, Ruoye sighed and said, "Oh, forget it, she hadn't recovered her skills at that time, and she was in danger. If I knew that this little foundation cultivator knew divine writing, I would definitely arrest her and question her."

She had followed Mu Yun for many years, so she was able to deliberate when something happened. After she finished speaking, she asked Chang Li to stand in the formation without noticing the ups and downs in her eyes.

Chang Li was no longer in danger, the flames covering her body dissipated, and returned to the original cluster of small flames floating in front of her chest. Ruoye raised the Eight Desolation Mirror, but seeing a flash of inspiration, she fell into the formation from the mirror, and then , a light-colored soft light flashed on the circle of runes around it, turned a few times, and finally landed on the cluster of flames. After a long time, a blurry shadow suddenly flashed in the mirror.

It seemed to be two people, Chang Centrifuge tightened, and was about to take a closer look, but the mirror darkened. Ruoye put away the Eight Desolation Mirror, pointed in a direction and said: "Zhong Mingzhu should be in that direction, but the spiritual energy here is disordered." , I can’t find out more, so I can only walk there first.”

Changli immediately walked there quickly, Ruoye said anxiously: "Hey, wait for me." As he spoke, he wiped away the traces on the ground, followed Changli and walked side by side with her, saying: "Those robbery fires are not easy to deal with. Don't leave me behind." Changli nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

The direction Ruoye pointed was northeast, and when they fell, they were in the southwest of Zhuoguang Mountain, so they happened to be going to Zhuoguang Mountain. After walking for a while, Ruoye realized that they were going to the tiger's den However, she has passed through several abysses under the protection of Changli. If she turns back alone at this time, she will probably be swept down by the fire again, so she has to bite the bullet and continue.

Along the way, she kept asking around and asking what happened between Changli and Zhong Mingzhu, but Changli either said "I don't know" or kept silent, which made her very annoyed. The stone rolled into the lava, it was really terrifying, if it kept quiet, she felt that she was going to go crazy, so she could only ramble about her experience.

It turned out that she and Yu Tong met Li Yang and others who were going to Nanming Mountain Villa halfway. Those people were exhausted and their spiritual power was weak. She was worried that they would encounter monsters on the way, so she asked Yu Tong to escort them back, and she continued to go north into the mountains Afterwards, Longtian Li and the others suddenly disappeared. She thought she was lost, so she ran around in a hurry to inquire, and soon found out that the nearby monks were frequenting, many of them were masters of transforming spirits, and she realized that she was Entering Fairy Yuyuan's lair, she wanted to leave as soon as she realized it, but the way back was blocked, so she could only put her hope on Zhong Mingzhu, who was probably still nearby.

She happened to pass by here that day, and found Zhong Mingzhu's aura nearby, but before she had time to find her, she was discovered by several monks, and then met Chang Li.

She kept talking to herself, but she didn't realize that Changli fell into deep thought when she heard that Longtian Li and the others were missing.

"That guy has the most ideas, and now I can only count on her." She sighed heavily.

But Chang Li suddenly said: "My little uncle and the others, why did they come here?"

Ruoye frowned and said, "It's a letter from the Huozheng clan, I thought you knew about it." When she saw Li Yang and the others, she subconsciously thought that the man was sent by Li Yang, and time was in a hurry , she didn't ask any more questions, and now hearing Chang Li's tone, she couldn't help but thumped in her heart, and thought to herself: Could there be something else hidden in it?

"I don't know." Changli's first reaction was that Zhong Mingzhu talked with Li Yang behind her back for a long time, and then thought of the secret words from the jade document a while ago, all the anxiety and suspicion turned into a thorn It penetrated deeply into my heart, and every breath brought out a bit of pain.

Noticing that her complexion was different, Ruoye said with concern: "Are you worried about your little uncle? I checked the area where they disappeared, and there was no trace of a fight. It is likely that they discovered me and tried to get rid of me." .”

Chang Li didn't say anything, and asked again after a while: "Is there any way, can I directly teleport Shuo Yuan from here?"

"How is this possible?" Ruoye seemed surprised that she would ask such a question, and looked at her strangely before saying, "Shuo Yuan lacks spiritual power, and the weather and terrain are dangerous and changeable. I haven't set up a teleportation formation for many years. It is for this reason, you must not be whimsical and want to use this method to escape, right?" She paused and said: "Unless there is an artifact to help, but it is too difficult, I am afraid it will take tens or even a hundred years to do it. At this time, you can go out even if you walk.”

Chang Li's eyes darkened, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything after all.

There is no wind and snow in the ground. Although they can't fly, their footsteps are still much faster than the outside world. After walking for about half a day, Ruoye felt that most of them had entered the belly of Zhuoguang Mountain, and there were more and more flames flowing.

Originally there was still a large piece of land, and those fires flowed like rivers, but now they have become a vast ocean. They twisted and turned on the isolated island in the sea of ​​flames before they could continue to the northeast. Just when Ruoye felt that there was no way ahead , the terrain suddenly rose, and after crossing the pile of rubble like a hill, they actually stepped into a well-repaired path.

The cut marks on the bricks and stones were smooth, as if they were made by a craftsman. It seemed that they had been shaken down before, and a section in the middle was broken.

It's just that the situation on this road is not much better than that below. Rocks of all sizes roll everywhere, and they can't fly. It's quite troublesome to travel, and after walking for a while, the road ahead is blocked.

The sealing stone was made of chopping iron, and Changli couldn't split it. Ruoye didn't dare to use the power of the Eight Desolation Mirror rashly, for fear of causing another collapse.

She expected that there were at least two artifacts nearby, if they were awakened by the Eight Desolation Mirror and erupted together, the consequences would be disastrous, she was about to persuade Changli to turn around, but she saw her carefully examine the sealing stone, as if she had discovered something, Sweeping away the mountains of rubble, a palm-sized groove was immediately exposed.

"What is this?" She wondered, and then Chang Li took out a token and placed it in the groove.

The token and the groove coincided exactly, without a single gap, and then a flash of fire was seen, like water patterns brushing across the chopping iron, after that, the chopping iron disappeared out of thin air, and there was indeed a huge hall inside .

Changli took back the token and walked inside.

Seeing that the groove matched the shape of the fire order, she thought of the temple Li Yang mentioned that could only be entered with the fire order.

The temple is very prosperous, with many rare treasures on both sides, and the top is decorated with bright pearls. The radiant fire will never go out for thousands of years. In the center stands a statue more than three feet high.

Seeing the statue, Ruoye exclaimed immediately, the statue was carved out of a whole piece of Kunlun jade, and now the Kunlun jade in the lower realm is a priceless treasure, even a piece as big as a finger is enough to cause people to fight for blood, but here is such a big jade One piece, even though she had seen all the endless treasures in the East China Sea, she was too frightened to speak for a moment.

"Who is this?" She asked, but her eyes fell on the inscription engraved on the statue, and she exclaimed again, even more unbelievable than last time, "Heavenly Emperor Haotian!"

But Chang Li only took one look at the statue, and ran back impatiently. She didn't know why she was so anxious.

Even if the woman was born exactly like her, she was only a little curious, but at this moment she was so eager, as if it was something she had been waiting for for a long time, since she was born—or before she was born, she was longing for it.

The smaller apse soon appeared in front of her. She raised her hand and threw the torch into the groove, and then squeezed in without waiting for the Zhan Tie to disappear completely.

A familiar face appeared in front of him.

That's her face.

Exactly the same, as if from the same mould.

But that's not her.

"Zhuoguang..." she said softly.

The voice seemed to come from another person in the dream.
