It's late at night, and the breeze is blowing in the valley, as warm and peaceful as ever. en8.
Su Yaobai came to Tianyi Pavilion at the rising of the new moon. At this time, Yun Qing was explaining the elixir recipe to the inner disciples who had borrowed the Golden Liquid Alchemy Sutra last time.
This disciple's Taoist name is Zakawa. She has been in Taoism for a hundred years. Although her qualifications are mediocre, her temperament is top-notch. She has no distracting thoughts and can calm down, so she is considered outstanding among the inner sects. After borrowing the alchemy recipe, she came to Tianyi Pavilion several times to borrow alchemy classics, and had brief exchanges with Yun Qing several times. This time she seemed to have encountered some obstacles, so she simply came to Tianyi Pavilion to stay for a few days, while consulting the classics and discussing with Yun Qing.
"Nine Pills are the key to longevity. It is something that ordinary people should have seen and heard. The pill formulas I see now have been changed many times. That's why I asked you before if you need to borrow the Jiuding Pill Sutra and the Taiqing Pill Sutra together. Mutual confirmation. Furthermore, it is probably not possible to open a furnace to refine elixirs in the valley. The elixir furnace and elixir fire require the harmony of the time and place. This place is isolated from heaven and earth, so it is not easy to refine this magical elixir. Another point is that the nine elixirs are used to help the body. External incarnations are fine, but using them to improve your cultivation is not worth the gain."
As he spoke, Yun Qing summoned the Nine Cauldron Alchemy Sutra and the Taiqing Alchemy Sutra from behind him, and then handed it to Zhikawa: "I also have the "Reexamination of the True Solution to Alchemy" that you wanted to borrow a few days ago. Do you need me to find it for you?"
Zhikawa shook his head: "Thanks for the advice, let's wait until I read a few alchemy books before talking."
She put away the jade slips and turned around, and immediately faced Su Youbai, who had been standing by the door for a long time. Zhikawa was stunned for a moment, then quickly saluted: "Master, why are you here?"
Most Taishang Dao cultivators practice behind closed doors, forgetting once and forgetting the passage of time. Seniors like Su Yaobai only appeared a few times in the Battle of Heaven a thousand years ago. Zhikawa did not expect to be here here. Kind of place to meet him.
"I'm here to bring a message to the person who is being punished." Su Yaobai nodded calmly towards Zhikawa, and then said to Yun Qing, "The Saint's Law has come down."
Wakkagawa felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between them. Did the "person who was tortured" refer to this girl? This made her a little surprised. After a few days of getting along with each other, Zakawa also got to know Yunqing a little bit. He looked very young, but he was completely out of the immature of his age. He was well-read, gentle and kind, and he was very friendly. All the Taishang Dao cultivators she had met were a little different.
"Senior, please elaborate." Yun Qing put down the book in his hand, stood up and saluted.
Zhikawa took a few steps back. At this time, she saw some clues. Judging from Yun Qing's name to Su Yubai, he might not be a disciple of the Shenyin Sect.
Su Yaobai briefly mentioned the meaning of the Immortal Saint: "The Saint asked you to stay here for ten years. During the ten years, you will defend the mountain for our sect and protect the disciples of our sect. "Ya*wen*yan* The *first* episode of love』"
In Wakkagawa's view, this is basically an "important task". Can the girl in front of him be like Senior Zhu Yan on Qingya Peak, guarding the mountain gate and building a copper wall with her own body
"Thank you, Lord Saint, for your kindness." Yun Qing bowed her head and thanked her, "Am I just going to stay here for ten years?"
Su Yaobai walked around Zhichuan and walked in front of her. Yun Qing felt that the two qi of yin and yang were like mountains and seas, and huge waves swept everything. She barely stood up straight.
"The place where you are stationed is the southern gateway to the Heavenly Divine Vein, the Darkness of the North Sea."
Yun Qing had never heard of the Beihai Ming at all. This time she went to the Tongtian Divine Vein through the Great Movement Formation. The southern gateway of the Tongtian Divine Vein must be similar to the Nanhaiguan Pass of Wuwu Demon Realm.
"Senior, can you lead the way?" Yun Qing asked with a good attitude.
Su Yaobai said indifferently: "I don't have time. Zhikawa, please tell her clearly."
"Yes!" Zakikawa immediately replied, the Darkness of the North Sea is not a good place...
Su Yaobai walked out of Tianyi Pavilion with his hands behind his back. He said to Yun Qing: "This is a punishment, not a vacation. I hope the demon will take more snacks... The riot cycle of the central turbulence has been shortened, and the North Sea current is affected by it. Kunpeng's migration may be It will be ahead of schedule, I hope Demon Lord will not die there."
As he spoke, he turned into the breeze and disappeared.
Zhikawa suddenly understood after hearing Su Yaobai's last words: "Are you a disciple of the devil?"
"A disciple of the Six Paths of Yama Sect." Yun Qing put the book in his hand back on the shelf and said regretfully, "Let's go."
Zakikawa knew her identity as soon as he heard it, but he didn't ask any more questions. She must be the notorious Demon Lord Huangquan. The first direct descendant who died in this war died at her hands.
For inner disciples like Wakikawa, direct inheritance is almost a kind of belief. Their strength also means the strength of the Taoist tradition. They protect the sect and fight in the war, but no one thought that direct disciples would also be able to do so. Fallen—until the Underworld Demon Lord killed Ling Feizi.
"Why don't you need to pay with your life?" Zhakawa looked at her and said, there was no resentment in his words, just pure confusion, "If it only takes ten years to kill the direct descendant, then the cost is too low, and the future wars will be chaotic. There will be more people in China who will attack the direct descendants."
"First of all, there are very few people who can kill the direct descendants, so there is no need to worry about the possibility of 'more people attacking the direct descendants'. Secondly, I don't have to pay for it with my life, but not everyone in the world can become a ghost."
Yun Qing's tone was no different from when he explained the pill prescriptions in the past few days, but Zhikawa still felt the subtle attitude of unscrupulous and reckless behavior.
She said no more, just silently leading the way. To say how much attachment Zhikawa had to his direct disciple who died, it’s really hard to say. The Tao of the Supreme Being itself transcends selfish desires and emotions, not to mention that Zhakawa has never even seen the face of Ling Feizi.
She just instinctively felt that the girl in front of her was not suitable to be approached.
"What kind of place is Beihai Zhiming?" Yun Qing asked as he walked.
Zakawa received Su Yaobai's instructions, so he knew everything and said: "The Darkness of the North Sea is a place without light. It is the northernmost point of the world. At that port, there is a gate that leads to the divine veins of the sky."
"Kunpeng...is there any danger?" Yun Qing asked next. In the past ten years, she has been either in the Nanfeng Continent or in the Wuwu Demon Realm, and she doesn't know much about things on the sea.
Zakawa was a little embarrassed. She sent Yun Qing to the mouth of the valley, and then said: "Well... I only heard that Kun sleeps in the underworld of the North Sea, but I don't know much about the turbulence and the migration of Kunpeng that the uncle mentioned. .”
"I understand." Yun Qing nodded, "Do you have anything else to ask about the pill recipe?"
Wakkagawa didn't expect her to mention this: "No, no more. By the way, this is a nautical chart. It shows the location of the North Sea Darkness and the seasonal changes of the currents in various places. There should not be any major changes in these within ten years. , the Demon Lord can just pay attention... In addition to the strong wind, there are countless dangers on the North Sea, and the Tongtian Divine Vein is the important town of our sect, the Demon Lord must not take it lightly."
"Yes." Yun Qing nodded again and took a thick gold foil book from her hand. The book is extremely detailed, with nearly a hundred reefs, strong winds, whirlpools and places where sea beasts appear in a sea area with a radius of thousands of miles. If it is made from such a thin gold foil paper, it must contain a lot of content. It is indeed a big project to explore the entire North Sea so thoroughly. The dangers and opportunities inside are clearly laid out on the gold foil paper, which makes Yun Qing feel that the value of the book in front of him is no less than an ancient magic weapon.
She turned Fang Cunzhan to leave this quiet and warm valley and embarked on the road to the underworld of the North Sea.
Zhikawa looked up at Xinyue. She had been cultivating in this valley for countless years. Only this time, she felt an aura of restlessness and restlessness from this strange demon cultivator. The troubled times were really coming.
Yun Qing went out to sea from the west of Beichuan Continent and flew north along the sea breeze. Along the way, the wind and waves became stronger and stronger, the sky became darker and darker, and finally even the moonlight dimmed.
There is also a strong wind north of Beichuan. It is impossible to rush straight to the Tongtian Divine Vein, so Yun Qing can only choose to take a roundabout way. The sea area is much wider than the 6 areas, but it is also more empty. Not to mention the human habitation on such a vast sea, even the sea people are very rare. The further north you go, the colder it becomes, and thin ice will form in some sea areas, making it impossible for ships to pass through. Even the sea people cannot communicate with the world on the land.
Yunqing had the chart given by Zakikawa, and basically avoided all fatal dangers, but this would require a long detour.
I don't know how many days I've been flying, but the change in light between day and night is almost gone. The surrounding area is completely black, and I can't tell the difference between up, down, and four directions. Fortunately, Yun Qing only sees things with his mind and has not been greatly affected yet.
When the last ray of light disappeared, Yun Qing knew that he had arrived.
The sky is black, with no stars and moon visible. The sea is black, with no fish or crabs visible. It is extremely cold here. Thick ice forms on the sea surface, and the ice stretches into mountains and rivers. Black mountains float on the vast black sea, as if everything in the world has fallen into the void. There was a glimmer of light in the void, which seemed to be within reach and yet far away in the horizon. Yun Qing looked at the glimmer of light in the distance, thinking that it must be the gate to the heavenly divine veins.
She originally wanted to stop near the boundary gate, but the further north she went, the colder it became. She felt that her blood was flowing slower and slower. The surface of her skin was torn by the cold wind, and bloodshot oozed out and she was immediately frozen. This cold It seeped into the bones, and the whole body was stiff. Yun Qing had no choice but to stop here and no longer walked towards the boundary gate. She began to slowly run the sun and black pure energy to protect the body. However, the wind was not strong and the surrounding spiritual energy was very thin. It was definitely not an option to continue like this.
Yun Qing walked onto an iceberg, but immediately discovered that the mountain was moving slowly under the current. She originally wanted to find a place to stay with the Turtle Breathing Technique for ten years, and then she would be able to live freely at the end of the ten years, but now it seems that this may not be possible. Just as Su Yubai said, at this time, the central turbulence fell into a riot, and the surrounding ocean currents were affected by it, and the speed increased significantly. The same is true for Beihai Zhiming. If she really found a mountain to fall asleep, she would probably drift away with the mountain in more than ten days.
The Immortal Way really has no omissions, so she can't be lazy and can only stay awake all the time.
Yun Qing wandered among the mountains for a while and found an open space in the center of the entire sea area. This place was almost as vast as half of the continent. Because it was surrounded by continuous icebergs, it was less affected by ocean currents. She flew up to the empty space, used Xuanyuan Jade Transformation Technique to condense the jade platform, and built a temporary residence in the void.
"Forget it, it's only ten years..."
Yun Qing raised his hands, and forty-nine fire pillars rose up from the jade platform. The red lotus fire burned on the pillars, slightly dispelling the coldness of the deep sea.
She sat cross-legged on the jade platform, enduring the deep cold and desolation, regardless of the passage of time or the changes of heaven and earth.
