As soon as Zheng Wan stepped into the fog, she felt something was wrong.
If yesterday's mist was still the ubiquitous air, then today's mist is the turbid water soaked in rotting corpses overnight. She trudged through the black rotten water, and every step she took required great effort.
Captain Luan Heng's voice came:
"Jinhuan Zhenjun, today's mission is probably much more dangerous than yesterday's."
"Why did such a big change happen overnight?"
Bili asked.
"It must be because of training another person."
The darkness where you can't see your fingers always makes people feel uneasy. Zheng Wan slapped several vajra masks and ice shields on her body before she stopped.
The soldiers fell silent.
After a long time, someone sighed:
"It's a pity for Zhenjun Qianshuang."
Anyway, this person was also known as the number one beauty in the Xuancang world, but she never thought that the beauty would die so uselessly.
"Okay, don't hurt the spring and the autumn, let's cheer up and complete today's task. If we don't break the formation, I will die a few more tomorrow. I'm afraid no one will go back whole."
Luan Heng interrupted the team members' chatter and handed the rope to Zheng Wan.
Zheng Wan took it, tied it around her waist, and walked against the "water" without saying a word:
"According to Da Siqing's instructions, I need to arrive at Yinchi by noon, so it's better to hurry up."
The Siyin Pools in the southeast, north, and west had to be blown up at noon at the same time, not even a minute or a second away.
Zheng Wan didn't know what Cui Wang's plans were, but she also knew that this person would never target without purpose.
"Let's go."
The black iron commanders all knew the seriousness of the matter. This matter was related to their own lives, and no one dared to neglect it. They hurriedly followed the traction of the rope and walked forward together.
"Beauty, beauty, wait for me!"
Only a few steps away, a familiar shout came from behind.
Luan Heng listened and said hesitantly:
"Jin Huan Zhenjun, but... the Shujin Zhenjun of Hao Ranzong?"
Apart from him, no one dared to call her that.
Zheng Wan stopped, and Guo Tingshu Jin came panting from behind:
"Beauty, I'm on your team."
"Nonsense!"
Rao Zheng Wan knew that he was always unreliable, but she never thought that this person would drop the chain at such a critical moment.
Shu Jin belonged to the southern team, and the southern team had lost one True Lord of Strength, and now there is only one less Shu Jin, and there are only three of them.
Although the captain is a sword cultivator of Return to the Ruins Wuxu Realm, he is not so powerful that he is not afraid of everything.
In the Four Yin Ponds, if one ring is missing or one second is missing, Cui Wang's plan will be broken.
Zheng Wan didn't want to be trapped to death in this place where no bird shit. She, Aye, Auntie, was still waiting for her in Fengwu City.
"It was the captain who thought I was useless and drove me out of the team."
Shu Jin was aggrieved and authentic.
In the darkness where you can't reach your fingers, you can't see the other person's face, and you can only judge emotions by tone of voice. Zheng Wan was silent:
"What did the real king do?"
"I just said a few more words about you," Shu Jin said angrily, "The captain said, don't let me covet, covet... His family's Daojun loves a woman, so he drove me away without hesitation."
"..."
Luan Hengzhen said:
"Forget it, Biaoli Zhenjun, please go to the southern team to support."
The fourth team had just set off, and Biao Li's light body skills were excellent. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have picked Fei Zong back then, and he could still catch up now.
"yes."
Biaoli responded and left.
The five of them drove eastward all the way.
Shu Jin probably knew that he had offended Zheng Wan, so he didn't act like a monster all the way, he just followed everyone obediently.
Most of the flying zombies were tied up yesterday, and some of the harassers walked stiffly and ran stiffly, and couldn't get close to them at all. Although there was a fog, they could still cope with it with supplementary energy from time to time.
However, it took more than half an hour to reach Yinchi in the east.
It's just that when he was a hundred feet away from Yinchi, he still encountered difficulties.
The dense fog here is no longer water, but a sticky ointment sticking together. It can be overcome against the water, but if it is this sticky ointment, it will take a long time to pull out a leg.
But during this half-day, the vitality was exhausted extremely fast, and the effort of taking a Rejuvenation Pill in his mouth, the leg that was raised just stuck back again, it was completely useless.
At this time, there was only one moment left before noon.
To make matters worse, the closer to Yinchi, the more severe the stiffness. They rush forward with claws and teeth, defying life and death, and they are endless.
Luan Heng raised a row of earth thorns to force the flying zombies back:
"There is no way to go on like this."
"It seems that the rest of the fish that slipped through the net are all lurking around this Yin Pond," Zheng Wan said, "I always feel that these flying zombies are smarter than the previous ones."
The ones before did not make fake moves, but these flying stiffs will make some unexpected moves at a certain moment, for example, dodge. Even, at the same time, he will attack a certain True Monarch—
Attempt to break each one.
"Jinhuan Zhenjun," Luan Heng smiled wryly, "If we are escorting Zhenjun, with the small magical power of Zhenjun's piercing through the sky, maybe we will throw the sword pill into Yinchi when he is unprepared?"
There is no time to lose.
The sun can't penetrate the thick black mist, but it can feel that the pool of Yin not far away is rolling more and more violently. Zheng Wan poured Yuanli into her eyes and looked forward intently.
In the Yin Pond, there are dense bones, and the wind is blowing, but there is nothing beside the pool.
There is no jumping or flying stiffness, but it makes people feel hairy for no reason.
If you use the blue sky flash, you can indeed pass directly to the Yinchi and drop the sword pill. If the speed is fast, you can flash back with the blue sky flash in an instant. In this way, she will be fine—
But what if there is something in Yinchi that she can't deal with
Zheng Wan came from the mortal world and never dared to make too much of a big deal. She didn't know how many mysterious things happened in the Taoist world, so she was always in awe and acted prudently in order to save her life.
"Yes, yes, but - each of you must hand over a life-saving item to me."
Zheng Wan's request is not too much.
If she fails in this trip, everyone will be trapped to death in this cage.
Therefore, Zhenjun Luan Heng took out a jade bi beforehand:
"This thing is specially refined by my master. In a critical moment, it can be turned into a water mirror to bounce back the opponent's attack."
The captain took the lead, and everyone else also took out their own treasures, most of which were given by the elders, and some were obtained from the secret realm—
Of course, not all will come up with the best things.
However, Zheng Wan is also content.
She accepted them all with a smile, and when it was Shu Jin's turn, he seemed to empty out the entire storage bag, and after a while, a pile of treasures piled up in front of Zheng Wan.
It can be seen that the Shu Yudao Lord of Haoranzong has broken his heart for his precious son.
What deep-sea shark beads, what dragon tendons refining nets, what phoenix feathers glow, all were prepared for his son, for fear that his life would be lost, and now he threw them all to Zheng Wan:
"Beauty, you must be careful."
Shu Jin also gave her a Thousand Miles Escape Talisman.
Zheng Wan looked at it, and in the end only picked out the Earth Escape Talisman and the yellow deep-sea shark bead. At a critical moment, this bead can defend her against an attack from the Magic Realm, which is very good.
With such a stir, there is almost no time left.
Zheng Wan stared at Yinchi right and wrong, and in the last ten or so breaths, a blue sky flashed, and the person had arrived in front of Yinchi, only a foot away from the black water in the pool.
But this ten feet, like a moat, separated her from Yinchi.
It was only then that Zheng Wan realized that the Yin Pond was not defenseless, it had been set up with a protective shield, and if she broke through the protective shield, the best time would have passed.
Suddenly, she thought of the hundred or so sword pills that Cui Wang stuffed into her arms.
That's too late!
At the same time she threw out the sword pellets, all the life-saving items given to her by the team members were also thrown out. Layers of tortoise shells were stacked on her body, and they were lifted off by the air wave that was close at hand.
"Bang bang bang bang—"
There were constant explosions.
Array plate shattered.
The amulet burnt.
The tassel hairpin is broken.
The deep-sea shark beads shattered into pieces.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was the peach branches randomly thrown by Zheng Wan that supported her.
Peach branches turned into vines, wrapping her in a round rattan ball, and the air waves colliding with the protective array couldn't break through the scorched and weak vines at all.
"boom-"
The takraw ball was thrown far away and scattered in all directions, like a goddess scattering flowers in the air.
The branches and vines fell to the ground, and were blown by the wind, turning into dust.
There is a faint fragrance of peach, mixed with scorched peach, which is not a pleasant smell, but it awakens a certain part of Zheng Wan's memory. Outside Haoshu City, she was trapped in the mist for a month.
The moment he walked out of the mist, what he smelled was also the faint fragrance of dead wood and peach.
Omnipresent, extremely astringent and extremely shallow.
Cui Wang,
Oh it's you.
Zheng Wan closed her eyes, and Luan Heng penetrated through the fog:
"Jinhuan Zhenjun, it is now!"
She opened her eyes, raised her hand and threw the biggest sword pill into Yinchi.
"boom-"
The Yin Pond was tumbling, and the white bones were lifted by the sword waves, "crashing", splashing water all over the ground.
At the same time, there was a loud bang in the south, west and north.
With a roar:
"Li Wei, how dare you!"
"Yinqing, if you insist, I don't mind having one more dead soul under the sword."
Zheng Wan found that in such a noisy voice, she could still recognize that the voice came from Cui Wang.
A streak of light streaked across the sky.
It seems to rise from chaos, break through yin and yang, clear as promised, bright as day, cut through the darkness that covers the sky and the sun, and go down.
"boom-"
The earth shakes and the mountains shake.
There was a burst of "cracking", as if someone knocked a crack in the eggshell, and light penetrated the darkness little by little, and came in.
"The formation is broken! The formation is broken!"
Amid the cheers of the crowd, the gap was quickly smoothed again, and the darkness between the sky and the earth returned.
Failed.
Zheng Wan thought with great disappointment.
The dense fog surged, and the flying zombies in the fog seemed to go crazy, biting everyone they met.
Zheng Wan realized that she couldn't flash the blue sky.
She couldn't move, she couldn't even use a little energy, the Yin Pond was blown open, countless black water leaked out, seeping into her skirt, Tianyu Liuguangyi suddenly made a "sizzling" sound, and jumped up. Puffy smoke.
There are seven or forty-nine small formations engraved on Tianyu Liuguangyi, and these small formations are aggregated into a large formation. Zheng Wan found herself covered in a mask, and all the flying zombies who attacked were blocked from the mask, but the black water But it had already touched her skin, causing a violent shudder.
Not painful, but extremely itchy.
The itching penetrated into the bone marrow, like thousands of ants crawling on her body.
Sooner or later, Tianyu Liuguangyi couldn't hold on, and the teammates not far away were too busy to take care of themselves. In the distance—she stared at it, she could only see the direction of the Hall of Beauty, the white light that suddenly rose, and mushroom clouds one after another.
But after a while, she guessed Cui Wang's plan, he sent out all the envoys to destroy Yinchi, and he wanted to destroy the foundation - the Hall of Beauty himself.
Can only save themselves.
Zheng Wan felt itchy, and stuffed a Rejuvenation Pill into her mouth. The moment the medicine liquid took effect, she patted the Thousand Miles Escape Talisman and the Invisibility Talisman she bought from Qibao Pavilion last time.
The last bit of vitality was exhausted, Zheng Wan only felt that she had landed on a piece of soft grass, she tried her best to open her eyes, but only saw the dark sky and the ubiquitous thick fog——
It turned out that they still hadn't left the range of Molan Town.
A few running around jumped up and down, they ran to the edge of the grass and sniffed suspiciously, Zheng Wan curled up and hid herself in it, trying to use her burnt-out head to think about what the black water was , why would...
She swallowed back the moan that was about to come out of her throat, only to feel like a fire was burning inside her body.
The zombies bounced and walked away again.
The breeze was blowing on her face, but it didn't extinguish the heat all over her body. Zheng Wan only felt that she was getting hotter and hotter. She knew something was wrong with her, but she didn't know what was wrong.
Just at this moment, a voice came:
"Hey, look what I found?"
Daoist Niqing, who was still fighting with Cui Wang in the Hall of Beauty before, opened the grass and looked at the beauty lying in the grass, like a begonia sleeping in spring:
"Fog in the time of joy, water in deep love, beauty, have you dipped in the water of that pool of darkness?"
Zheng Wan reluctantly opened those misty eyes, only to feel that the indulgent Daoist Lord is not the same as usual.
Still very romantic and unrestrained, but in this romantic and unrestrained, there is something that people can't see through, which is definitely not good intentions.
"Li Wei ruined my beauty hall, or I will destroy his beauty, how about it?"
Her brain, which was swollen by the fire, couldn't tell the truth from the man's words at all, she closed her eyes in a daze, and shouted desperately in her heart: Cui Wang, Cui Wang, Cui Wang...
Cui Wang didn't come, but someone else came.
Zheng Wan is completely unexpected.
Shujin walked out from behind the tree with a smile on his face. He was wearing a scholar's robe and a scholar's towel, with a smile on his face, but his expression and temperament completely changed.
Even white can't hide the evil nature of his body.
He leans on a tree:
"Yiqing, if you move forward an inch, I can't guarantee that your hand will stay on your body properly."
Ni Qing stood up straight:
"Yo, stop pretending? The young master of the Seven Killing Sect."
"Should I call you Shuyuan, or Shujin?"
Shu Jin seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and answered the wrong question:
"Yiqing, when did your Hehuan Sect cooperate with the stinky mouse in the gutter of the Yin Puppet Sect? You are not afraid of getting your nose smoked."
Among the three sects of the evil alliance, Qisha is the first, followed by Hehuan and Yin Puppet.
"Then I also want to ask, you have more than ten thousand dead souls under the young master of the Seven Kills Sect, how can you be coy with a woman? You are not afraid of losing face for your young master."
"Of course, I would."
Shujin smiled and said, "Niqing, you and I fought once."
As soon as the words fell, the strike was as swift as the wind, forcing the drowning to float, and within a short while, the two of them exchanged dozens of moves in the air.
"Are you crazy? I managed to trap Li Wei in the rope of cold meteor, and you made such a noise..."
"Naturally, I want to ask him to come and rescue this gentleman, the woman that this gentleman temporarily puts in his place."
Shu Jin did not retreat but advanced, facing the doting Taoist slap, was knocked to the ground, coughed up mouthfuls of blood, he clutched his chest, and smiled slightly.
The color of drowning changed, and the person suddenly disappeared in place.
Shu Jin coughed up a mouthful of blood, stood up with difficulty, walked in front of Zheng Wan, bent down, looked at her trembling eyelashes, slid his fingertips across her cheeks, and laughed softly:
"You like to pretend, just pretend. Today, for you, I have to give up a puppet body again. Remember, the next time I see you, it will be my real deity."
Zheng Wan didn't open her eyes.
But I can feel Shu Jin standing up: "Your Li Wei Taoist Lord is here, I will avoid it for a while."
Zheng Wan opened her eyes, and Shu Jin really disappeared, and at the same time, a heavy object fell down in the air, splashing a pile of dirt.
Just now, the smug Daojun Niqing turned his face to the ground, his eyes wide open, as if he had seen countless terrifying things. A roll of black mist whizzed down, mixed with countless sharp whistling sounds, and swept him away.
There is resentment in the fog, and countless resentments and hatreds gather together to form two words:
"Love it! Love it! Love it!"
Daojun Suqing smiled miserably:
"Li Wei, you're doing great!"
Cui Wangta's sword fell to the ground.
His purple robe was blown up by the wind, his long hair was loose, and his face, which was always calm and unruffled, was pale and frightened.
"Wan Wan?"
With a low voice, he suddenly disappeared in place, holding Zheng Wan in his arms.
Zheng Wan looked at him in confusion:
"Cui Wang, why did you come here..."
Her voice was low and soft, like a young deer being bullied, with a little crying sound, as if she wanted to beat him, but she withdrew her hand halfway, and turned her head away forcefully.
