Taiping Inn

Southern Xinjiang is different from the Central Plains. The Central Plains is densely populated and wild animals are becoming increasingly scarce, while Southern Xinjiang is mountainous and densely forested, with few people. Many places are still in a wild state, so there are many wild animals, and they are gifted and very difficult to deal with.

After the Shushan Sword School disciples made their move, Qi Yinbing also drew his sword himself, standing alone in the front, like the tip of the sword. The sword energy of this great master of the Heavenly Man Realm was crisscrossed, quickly tearing apart the formation of the wild animals. Wherever he passed, there was a bloody storm and corpses everywhere.

However, the disciples of the Shushan Sword School also gradually began to suffer casualties, which was inevitable.

Qi Yinbing let out a long roar and threw the long sword in his hand high up.

Then the long sword was seen to turn into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen... and finally turned into a mighty sword rain falling from the sky.

This is the unique skill of the Shushan Sword School, the "Ten Thousand Swords Technique". Transforming the sword into countless attacks on the opponent is not the same as ordinary sword energy turning into swords. The sword transformed by the "Ten Thousand Swords Technique" also has a physical body in a very short period of time, and can even replicate the magic of the main sword to a considerable extent, which is somewhat similar to Li Xuandu's "Human World".

Its principle is like the flowers and water in the mirror, which reflects the sword between heaven and earth to form a "reflection", and then solidifies it with the vitality of heaven and earth. However, there are also many restrictions. The sword used must be the natal sword that fits you very well, almost to the degree of unity between man and sword.

From this point of view, the "Ten Thousand Swords Technique" of the Shushan Sword School and the way of controlling the sword of the Qingwei Sect also have something in common. The founder of the Qingwei Sect once explained in detail in "Sword Sutra" that the way of controlling the sword is that there is no sword that cannot be used, and nothing cannot be a sword. "Ten Thousand Swords Technique" is both a sword that controls oneself and a sword that controls heaven and earth.

Therefore, the "Ten Thousand Swords Art" has extremely high requirements for cultivation. One must return to the true realm to practice. At the beginning, there are only dozens or hundreds of illusions. If one wants to have more than a thousand, one must be in the infinite realm of heaven and man, which is known as the infinite energy. Qi Yinbing is in this realm.

If it is a battle between people in the same realm, the "Ten Thousand Swords Art" may not be useful, but when encountering a situation where the few are against the many, especially when the opponent's cultivation is far inferior to oneself, the "Ten Thousand Swords Art" will be invincible.

After the sword rain, there were corpses everywhere, blood dyed the earth red, and even several gullies were filled.

Although these beasts were violent and bloodthirsty for some unknown reason and fought to the death, whether it was a secret method or a medicine, there was a time limit after all. After fighting for more than half an hour, the beasts gradually returned to normal and began to scatter and retreat, leaving only corpses everywhere.

On the other side, after three rounds of volleys from the Tang Family Fort disciples, most of the birds and beasts were killed or injured. The huge flock of birds that had covered the sky like a dark cloud began to become scattered, and the sky could gradually be seen.

Without any instructions, the Miaozhen Sect disciples began to treat the wounded. At the same time, two Confucian Tianren Realm masters flew up directly and began to act as scouts.

In fact, scouts should have been sent out as soon as possible, but people in the martial arts world are not military people after all. Even if they can form a formation to fight the enemy like a military formation, and even follow orders, they are far inferior in other aspects. Fortunately, it is not too late to make up for the loss.

As for Lan Xuanshuang, Ziyan Shanren, and Sikong Daoxuan, they never took action, but waited in full battle formation to prevent the demons from taking the opportunity to attack.

After repelling the flock of birds and beasts, everyone just stopped for a while and continued to approach the Nether Valley. At the same time, Ji Shuye ordered his disciples to leave signs along the way to guide the upcoming reinforcements from Zhengyi Sect and Xuannv Sect.

On the way, there were many traps set by the demons, but most of them were cracked one by one, without causing much trouble.

The battle progressed very smoothly, and soon they approached the Nether Valley, but there was no movement in the Nether Valley, which made people suspicious. At this time, two great Confucian masters fell from the sky. One of them was a man who knew his destiny. He had a strange appearance and elegant temperament. He was the dean of a college, and his status was second only to the mountain master. He said: "There are indeed some buildings in the valley, which should be the place where the demons are entrenched. However, there is no trace of the demons in the valley, and it seems that they have fled here."

The other person was about thirty years old, with a slender figure, wearing an ordinary Confucian shirt, and tied his hair with a wooden hairpin. The whole person was neat and tidy, just like an ordinary scholar who could be seen everywhere in the Wanxiang Academy. However, although this person was dressed in men's clothes, she was actually a woman. She was Shi Zongxi, who was known as the fourth great priest in the Wanxiang Academy. She didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly to show her agreement.

Ziyanshanren pondered and said, "If they are not in the valley, they can't fly to the sky, most likely they are underground."

Lan Xuanshuang nodded, "That should be the case, the entrance is most likely in the valley."

Sikong Daoxuan said with a mature and steady manner, "The leader of the Five Demons is most likely an immortal, and he should set up a formation in his sleeping place, but we have to be careful."

When it comes to formations, the people of Taiping Sect are the most proficient in this, but Taiping Sect is too far away from Shuzhou and has not sent anyone to come. The three can only rely on their cultivation in the realm of heaven and man to deal with it, but considering that the person who set up the formation is likely to be an immortal, the three are not completely sure that they can break through the formation.

After discussing for a while, in order to avoid too many casualties, the three decided to go in front. Even if there is a formation or trap, the three of them can deal with it together. After all, three great masters of the realm of heaven and man can barely resist an immortal, at least they are not powerless to fight back.

There is nothing surprising about the entrance of Netherworld Valley. Although it is not big, it is not difficult for the three of them to go hand in hand, but there are many vines. A stone tablet stood at the entrance of the valley, which was also covered with vines. After removing the vines, three big characters were written on it: "Nether Valley".

Lan Xuanshuang said, "I don't know what the word "女" means. Can you say that this place leads to Netherworld?"

The man from Ziyanshan shook his head and said, "The southern border is originally the territory of the Witch Cult, and there is a method of 'Translation' in the Witch Cult. Maybe it may be possible that this place has any relationship with the Witch Cult."

Lan Xuanshuang nodded slightly. Although she was born in Posa Prefecture overseas, she entered the "Xuandu Zifu" shortly after returning to the Central Plains. She did not set foot in southern Xinjiang in the past, because of Lu Wushen and the enlightened Six Witches, the pseudo-immortals were often in the Five Elements Cave Heaven. He fought with the great witches under the command of the Six Witches of Kaiming, so Lan Xuanshuang is not unfamiliar with the Witch Sect.

Sikong Daoxun suddenly said: "At that time, the Zu Tianshi defeated the last witch sect, and the Tianshi sect thus occupied Shuzhou and southern borders. Although today, the teacher's sect has become a sect and returned to Wuzhou, the sect The inheritance is orderly, and there should be records in this regard."

The people of Ziyanshan said, "Fortunately, Zhengyi Sect is already on the way. Are we going to wait for the people of Zhengyi Sect here?"

Lan Xuanshuang remembered that Qin Su had entered the valley and shook her head and said, "I am afraid that it will change if I am late. If there is any mistake in the Master Qin, we cannot explain to Mr. Qingping and the 'Tian Dao'."

The people of Ziyanshan also changed their expression slightly. After all, no one could remain indifferent to the matter of making enemies with the two immortals, so they said, "Then it's better to go to the valley."

The three of them didn't say much, and they entered the valley first, followed by the rest. In the middle were two great masters of Confucianism and Ji Shuye, and in the end, Tang Wan and Qi Yinbing were responsible for the rear of the palace.

After everyone entered the Netherworld Valley one after another, they did not see half of the people in the Demonic Path. After walking out for about ten miles, they could see a large number of houses in the Demonic Path, but they were all empty at this time. At the same time, mist began to grow in the valley, and clouds grew above the head. In addition, the valley was already lush with vegetation, so it became increasingly difficult to see the way forward. If you look down from the sky, the entire Nether Valley is already white, like a big white cocoon.

In a moment, the fog in the valley had reached the point where there was nothing to see outside three steps, and if you were not careful, you would be left behind.

Lan Xuanshuang and the other two knew it was clear that the formation in the Netherworld Valley was beginning to work.

Suddenly, the fog rolled up like boiling water.

The three of them raised their luck and were ready to fight. But to the three of them, the formation in the valley was not hurt or trapped, but moved and changed positions.

The three of them felt that everything around them began to undergo earth-shaking changes, as if the world had changed, and as if the stars had changed. They didn't know where they were or where they were going. In other words, this is not that the formation is directly moving the three people, but that the formation divides the space in the valley into countless pieces, like a jigsaw puzzle, and then re-stitches, and the three people naturally change their positions.

When the sky is clear and the earth is clear, the three people are gone in the Nether Valley.
