Zhilinsou only drew 1,300 feet on the map of Black Wind Cave.
The person who entered the cave was not Zhi Linsou himself, but a friend and partner of his. Judging from what Jianchou saw now, this person might very well be Qu Zhengfeng!
Unless, there are other people here, and they have walked along the way without leaving any trace.
One thousand feet is just the end of ordinary people.
As for body training, it seems that there is still a long time to go.
Two-thirds of the black wind-patterned bones in Jianchou's body have been completed, and most of the bones have turned black. As for the rest of the body except the bones, it is unknown how many times it has regrown.
As long as the head doesn't fall off and the bones aren't broken, those who have practiced "Human Device" will be so strong in their ability to recover that they are almost immortal!
"Human Instrument" says that when the Black Wind Bone Tattoo is two-thirds tattooed, it is considered complete.
But in theory, the more the better.
Jianchou felt that he still had some energy left and didn't want to stop here.
Taking one last look at the words written on the wall of the cave, Jianchou himself smelled a strange smell of gunpowder.
Maybe…
If there were people who came later, they would think that Yashan was showing off, right
She shook her head, then turned around and continued walking towards the Black Wind Cave.
"Woo woo..."
At this point, the sound of the wind passing through the gaps in the cave wall has become soft and gentle, like the sound of a flute.
Walking in the sound of the wind that is almost like music, I see sorrow going against the wind.
Inside the cave, there was only the change of the black wind, and one was unaware that winter had turned into spring, and summer had turned into autumn outside.
Things change, time passes by in a flash, it’s always so fast, it’s gone in the blink of an eye.
***
Three hundred miles away from the Black Wind Cave is Yashan, the top of the mountain.
The weather is nice today. Even when sitting on the unsheathed Yashan Sword, you can still see the mighty waters of the Jiutou River flowing below.
Elder Xihe held a pile of jade slips and muttered: "More than 20 months ago, the Jianzhu Sect falsely accused my Senior Sister Yashan Jianchou of murder, but now they can't even find the body of their own disciple. It's simply slanderous! Their people dared to block the entrance of the Black Wind Cave, causing a lot of trouble, and you, Uncle Fudao, don't do anything about it? There are still seven days until the small meeting, this is like-"
"Shut up, mountain man!"
Fudao Shanren, who was sitting on the Yashan Sword and gnawing on a bone, could no longer endure it and threw a chicken bone to Elder Xihe!
“Bang!”
Elder Xihe's snow-white hair was immediately stained with oil. He stared at Fudao Shanren in a daze, unable to speak.
Ever since the day Yan Chensha and the other two guys brought back the news, the people of Fudao Mountain have been getting calluses on their ears.
"You keep saying that the Candle-Cut Sect is bad here and there, and you want to find a chance to wipe them out, but you never think about it, can you destroy the Candle-Cut Sect just because you want to? Do we in Yashan still have some shame? This is not the way to do things. I say you, you have never experienced big storms, and your hearts are not black enough!"
"… "
Elder Xihe has never known what it means to have a black heart.
With trembling hands, he peeled off the chicken bone on his head and was about to go find Fudaoshanren to argue.
"Master Fudao—"
“Shut up!”
Fudao Shanren glared again and held up a whole chicken leg towards Elder Xihe.
"Hermit, do I need you to teach me how to do things? Huh? Are you better or am I? Instead of paying attention to little Jianchou, why don't you go and see why that idiot Qu Zhengfeng hasn't come back yet? It's been almost two years. Hermit, I understand that Jianchou went to practice his body, but he spent two years exploring the hidden world of Qingfeng Temple. If our Yashan was full of unreliable people like them, we would have collapsed long ago!"
"Uncle Master..."
Elder Xihe felt that the eldest senior sister and the second senior brother were both very powerful people, especially the second senior brother, who should not bear the blame.
He wanted to speak up for Qu Zhengfeng as soon as he opened his mouth.
Unexpectedly, Fudaoshanren seemed to have guessed that he was about to speak, and shouted decisively: "You are also unreliable!"
"… "
When did I become unreliable
Elder Xihe is totally wronged!
This is simply a huge accusation made out of thin air. Master Fudao, do you have any shame
Fudao Shanren said: Shanren never have face.
Seeing that Elder Xihe was choked by him and couldn't speak, he was satisfied. He snorted and said, "For people like us in the cultivation world, two years is nothing. Even if Jianchou doesn't make it to the meeting, I'm not worried. Anyway, I don't see Xie Buchen from Kunwu making it. Hehe, who knows what bad things Qu Laoer is doing in there."
Touching his chin, Fudaoshanren narrowed his eyes in pleasure.
He took another bite of the chicken leg and thought, "I should ask about the situation in the Black Wind Cave."
As he spoke, he directly took out a sound transmission jade slip.
"Sinking sand, sinking sand!"
Caiyao Peak, under Sheshen Rock, in front of Black Wind Cave.
Yan Chensha, who had been sitting cross-legged in meditation, had not moved for a long time.
At the moment when the sound transmission jade slip lit up, he finally opened his eyes, spread out his palm, and the jade slip was already in his palm.
It was Fudaoshanren who came to ask about the situation.
well…
I turned my head and saw that the old pear tree in front of the Black Wind Cave was full of green pears. It was almost two years old.
Yan Chensha also felt an indescribable sense of bitterness when he thought about his experiences in the past two years.
Who could have imagined
Initially, I came to investigate the unexplained death of a monk in Feitian Town, but I didn't expect that there would be no result. Instead, I had to deal with the matter of Master Jianchou. I originally thought that I could only spend one or two months with Jianzhu Sect at most...
Now, whenever they think of the judgment made two months or half a year ago, they all want to slap themselves in the face!
Let you go crazy, let you guess!
You deserve to be slapped in the face!
The entrance of Black Wind Cave looks the same as it did before!
people
fart!
Not to mention two months, almost two years have passed and there is not even a shadow of me!
Who swore so confidently that Jianchou would come out immediately
Countless formations collapsed under the bloody gazes of the Jianzhu Sect members...
One, one...
How many seats are there
Yan Chensha couldn’t count them anyway!
Pan Qi, who was as excited as a fighting cock at the beginning, now sat listlessly like an eggplant hit by frost.
In the past two years, the Jianzhu Sect's formation has become smaller and smaller, gradually changing from the original one-time consumption formation to a formation that can automatically absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, which finally gave relief to the people who were already stretched to the limit.
But even so, a huge number of spirit stones are needed to provide the energy for the formation to operate.
During this period, some disciples of the Jianzhu Sect could no longer tolerate it and asked their master to let them go back. They didn't expect that Xu Lan'er, who had spoken kindly to them at first, had turned against them and refused to let them go back no matter what.
Everyone cursed the woman to death in secret and just stayed there in anger.
As for Zhao Yunbin, he became much more obedient after being knocked unconscious by Yan Chensha's slap.
There is another reason why she is honest.
Some time ago, after waiting for Jianchou in vain, Yashan proposed to check the body of Zheng Yuner from the Jianzhu Sect. Zhao Yunbin was hesitant and took people to Feitian Town to check.
Unexpectedly, after pushing open the door, the house was empty!
The dead Zheng Yuner disappeared out of thin air!
God knows how terrifying that moment was!
Zhao Yunbin shouted that it was impossible, but no one believed her.
How can a dead person disappear
Is Zheng Yuner dead or not? Where did she go after her death
Zhao Yunbin shouted towards Yashan like crazy, insisting that they deliberately stole Zheng Yuner's body in order to clear Jianchou of the suspicion of killing innocent people.
pity…
Yan Chensha just looked at her coldly.
In his opinion, this was a frame-up from the beginning to the end, and he just said coldly: "If I, Master Jianchou, want to kill someone, what does it matter if you, Zhao Yunbin, are there?"
If we are going to kill, of course we will kill them all together!
Killing without leaving any survivors is the safe principle.
The fact that Master Jianchou could stay in the Black Wind Cave for so long is enough to prove his strength. If he still doesn't have the strength to kill Zhao Yunbin, it would be a real disgrace to Yashan.
So when Yan Chensha said this, Zhao Yunbin's face turned pale. Even though he felt extremely aggrieved in his heart, he didn't dare to say another word.
The dead person is gone, and there is no evidence.
No one saw the eldest sister from Yashan kill anyone, only the Jianzhu sect insisted that it was true.
No matter how you look at it, it's a mess.
However, Yan Chensha had his own purpose and was not in a hurry to knock down the Jianzhu Sect with one slap.
They all returned to the despairing Black Wind Cave in a strange tacit understanding.
The huge Black Wind Cave was like a monster with a huge mouth, constantly devouring the countless spirit stones they threw in!
Formations are something that only sects with deep roots can use. If a large sect spends two years setting up formations and burning spirit stones for two years, it would probably be difficult, let alone a medium-sized sect like the Jianzhu Sect
The more despair you experience, the more numb you become.
Except for their still bleeding hearts.
The only thing they learned was silence: when a formation collapsed, those who used to shout and scream in anger would now just glance at it indifferently and set up a new one.
Yan Chensha knew the situation of the Jianzhu Sect very well and had seen a lot of jokes in the past two years.
After taking a quick look at the surroundings, he told Fudao Shanren: "Master Uncle hasn't come out yet. Do you want me to go in and look for him?"
“… Seven more days.”
The hermit Fudao who was on the other end of the sound transmission jade slip suddenly sighed.
Yan Chensha fell silent.
Seven days refers to the time until Zuo Sanqian’s meeting begins.
Seven days after Yashan, we set out from the sect in the morning and headed for Kunwu.
Seven days later, the Central Region will usher in the biggest event in the past ten years, and Kunwu's stage will be the focus of attention of thousands of cultivators in the entire Central Region.
It will be a huge arena of fame and fortune, with countless celebrities of the new generation stepping onto the huge stage of the entire Central Region and the entire Nineteen Continents.
If Master Jianchou missed out on meeting Zuo Sanqian because of the incident at the Black Wind Cave...
It is undoubtedly a huge regret.
Yan Chensha’s suggestion is the most prudent.
The reason they didn't go in to find Master Jianchou before was, firstly, that he wanted to trick the Jianzhu Sect, and secondly, that this was Master Jianchou's own business and it was not appropriate for them to interfere.
But it's different now.
Fudao Shanren thought about it and replied, "Okay, let's do as you say. If Jianchou doesn't come out after three days, you can go in and find her. If she is at a critical moment of cultivation, don't disturb her. If not, bring her back and go to Kunwu together."
"Yes, Uncle Master, don't worry."
Yan Chensha responded, but couldn't help but feel excited.
Grandmaster Uncle was still thinking of letting Grandmaster Jianchou join Zuo Sanqian's small meeting.
A long time passed, and every time he asked about the situation, his great-grandmaster never said a word. He thought his great-grandmaster didn't mean that.
Unexpectedly, I still have Master Uncle in my heart.
It's another year of three thousand small meetings...
This year is the year when the stars truly shine.
Longmen has Zhou Chengjiang, Baiyue Valley has Lu Xiangleng, Wuyi Sect has Tao Zhang, Tongling Pavilion has Su Wuque, and Fengmo Sword Sect has Li Boshan...
What's more, Kunwu is disloyal, and there is sorrow on Yashan!
There was a hint of memories in his eyes.
Yan Chensha smiled slightly, put away the jade slip of sound transmission in his palm, then looked towards the position where Pan Qi was in front of him, and then was stunned.
Pan Qi is actually also reading the sound transmission jade slip now
Could it be that the Candle-cutting Faction is finally ready to give up
Yan Chensha became curious.
Over there, Pan Qi himself was also very surprised when he received the message from his master Xu Lan'er.
Ever since he suspected Xu Lan'er's intention of forcing them to stay here and was scolded by Xu Lan'er, Pan Qi has never contacted Shimen again. Unexpectedly, after such a long time, Xu Lan'er actually took the initiative to send a voice transmission
After being stunned for a moment, Pan Qi originally wanted to put the jade slip away with one hand.
He didn't want to bother.
However, at the moment when he was about to put it away, he hesitated again.
Frowning, Pan Qi still checked.
Xu Lan'er's voice came into his mind from the jade slip: "Junior Brother Pan, you have worked hard in the past two years. Now that Zuo Sanqian's small meeting is approaching, our chance has also come. The most outstanding genius in Yashan in the past ten years is this one, and she is the only one who can compete with Kunwu. So no matter what, no matter how long Jianchou has been hiding in the Black Wind Cave, she will definitely come out by now. Even if she doesn't come out, the two Yashan disciples who are guarding here with you will go to find her."
When Pan Qi heard this, he was suddenly stunned, and a gleam of light burst out in his eyes!
right!
yes!
Seeing that Zuo Sanqian's small meeting was about to start, Jianchou couldn't not participate. If she wanted to participate, she had to come out.
Only seven days left!
Are you still afraid that she won't come out
Xu Lan'er's voice continued.
"I won't let you leave the Black Wind Cave no matter what, just to let you keep an eye on her and make sure that this person hasn't left the Black Wind Cave during this period of time. Now, you've been squatting there for two years, it's time to make a move. I don't care whether you borrow, steal, rob, or make up your own pieces, but make the best formation for me and trap her in front of the Black Wind Cave. Don't let even a mosquito escape!"
turn out to be…
Is this what Xu Lan'er intended
A light bulb went off in Pan Qi's mind, and he seemed to suddenly understand something.
"Could it be... Could it be that Senior Sister Xu wants to trap her here?"
"You're pretty smart." Xu Lan'er on the other end laughed, "Zuo Sanqian's meeting is coming up. It doesn't matter who killed someone, who died, or whether or not she can get rid of that little bitch Jianchou. What's important is that she can't show up in Kunwu on time!"
It is true.
Pan Qi sighed inwardly, thinking back to Xu Lan'er's words, and felt a little uncomfortable.
I originally thought that it was because of Junior Sister Zheng who died innocently.
"Whether she comes out early or late, if we take the opportunity to kill her here, we will have already won half the battle. As for the cultivator on Yashan, you guys can just form a formation to resist. At the same time, you can go to Sheshen Rock to call down a group of people and tell them that the formation will be removed in the next seven days. They will definitely be waiting outside the Black Wind Cave."
Xu Lan'er's voice was already full of pride.
"Under the watchful eyes of the public, Yashan will have to be cautious even if they want to take action. I don't believe they can abandon the reputation of a prestigious and upright sect!"
What a good plan, what a vicious plan!
Pan Qi understood everything, and after a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "Please rest assured, Senior Sister Xu Lan'er, we will definitely do a good job on this."
"Then I will wait and see. Not only will I be rewarded, but Master will also be rewarded."
After Xu Lan'er finished speaking, she finally cut off the voice transmission.
Pan Qi, who was holding the sound transmission jade slip, finally seemed to come back to his senses.
He had been sitting cross-legged on the ground for a long time, looking listless, but he suddenly stood up by supporting himself with his hands!
"Everyone, get up!"
He shouted at the people who had been sitting numbly on the cliff!
All the disciples of the Candle-Jianzhu Sect were shocked.
They didn't understand what happened to Pan Qi.
Yan Chensha, who was far away, suddenly had a bad premonition and stood up slowly and vigilantly.
Pan Qi didn't even look back. His skinny body was wrapped in a black robe, and he finally showed a rare enthusiasm.
"Immediately remove the formation at the entrance of the Black Wind Cave and replace it with the Five Elements Life and Death Formation!"
Everyone was suddenly horrified.
The Five Elements Life and Death Formation requires thousands of spirit stones and is extremely powerful.
Originally, the Jianzhu Sect had switched to a less powerful formation in order to cut down on expenses in this area. Was Pan Qi crazy?!
Facing everyone's shocked looks, Pan Qi didn't explain a word, but continued to lecture: "Everyone, cheer up! Those of you on the left, go to the Self-Sacrifice Rock and tell everyone that in seven days at most, we will leave the Black Wind Cave, remove the formation, and tell them to come down and wait."
Everyone looked at each other.
Although no one knew what Pan Qi was doing, when they heard that “we will leave the Black Wind Cave in seven days at most”, everyone became energized as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Oh my god!
Finally leaving!
In this barren and windy place, I've already grown hair on my body.
The repeated disappointments, the consumption of countless spirit stones, and the huge sense of loss almost drove them crazy.
Now, when the word "leave" comes out of Pan Qi's mouth, it sounds like heavenly music!
For a moment, some of the more fragile people were almost moved to tears!
At this point, who else is unmotivated
Almost everyone listened to Pan Qi and took action, some setting up their formations and some giving notices.
Just one sentence awakened everyone's fighting spirit!
This scene, when seen by Yan Chensha, was indescribably dangerous.
Pan Qi smiled once, but he looked grim. "Two seniors from Yashan, we have spent almost two years here. If we continue to waste time, our Jianzhu Sect will not be able to hold on. In these last seven days, if Senior Jianchou comes out, it is naturally our good luck. If he doesn't come out, our Jianzhu Sect will accept it. Do you have any objections, Senior Yan?"
Seven days.
The timing is incredibly precise.
Yan Chensha was such a shrewd person that he guessed their intentions almost immediately!
Slander is one of them, and by the way, he also wants to plot against Master Jianchou so that she cannot arrive in Kunwu on time and attend the meeting with Zuo Sanqian
At that moment, Yan Chensha slowly raised the corners of his lips and showed Pan Qi a smile as warm as spring breeze: "Seven days, of course I, Yashan, have no objection."
During the time when the two people said this, the monks of Jianzhu Sect below had already taken out all their assets, some of which were even borrowed from other monks passing by in the name of Jianzhu Sect.
One spirit stone after another was placed in the appropriate position.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
…
After a while, a brand new five-colored formation light appeared.
The Five Elements Birth and Death Formation sounds simple, but it is actually a huge trapping and killing formation!
This formation was once used by some sects as a mountain protection formation. It had the ability to self-destruct at critical moments to ensure the safety of a sect. Although this one could not reach the scale of a mountain protection formation, its structure was exactly the same.
Once someone really steps into this formation, he will at least be seriously injured, if not die!
In this last attempt, the Candle-Cut Faction is going to make a desperate attempt.
They were disappointed every time before, except the last time.
They were gambling, betting on whether Jianchou would join Zuo Sanqian's meeting, and whether Yashan wanted her to join.
As long as any one of them "wants to", the Candle-cutting Faction will never lose this time!
A sure-win gamble!
As Jianzhu sent out people to call for help, more and more unfamiliar monks gathered, waiting for the day when the formation would be activated.
Pan Qi, who had been depressed for a long time, stared at the entrance of the Black Wind Cave like a ferocious falcon. As long as Jianchou came out, he would definitely not be able to escape!
On the cliff, Qi Shaofeng could already vaguely feel the wind and clouds surging there.
He couldn't help but look at Yan Chensha.
What he could feel, Yan Chensha could naturally feel as well. Although his brows were furrowed, his fingers were behind his back, gently tapping the flute.
Click, click.
Everyone is waiting.
All calm is brewing a storm.
***
Inside the Batu Caves.
One thousand two hundred and eighty feet!
"Bang!"
A huge azure ice sword rose up against the wind, was tightly grasped by a pair of white hands, and swung forward!
The flashing sword light gave people a feeling of ice and snow.
Wherever the sword pointed, all the wind blades that were rushing outwards along the wind direction were suddenly stopped by this terrifying sword energy, and then froze with a "crackling" sound, unable to move at all!
A blue light kept wandering on the huge ice sword.
On the ground, a huge bowl was still spinning slowly and leisurely, carrying the lingering sound of the madness just now.
Jianchou stopped, holding the ice sword upside down, and slowly raised his eyes—
Countless ice blades were suspended in the air, and were then smashed into pieces by countless new ice blades flying towards this side from behind.
The power of this sword is her greatest gain in the Black Wind Cave, apart from the fifth level of "Black Wind Bone Pattern" in the "Human Instrument" body refining!
She named it: Infinity Blade!
Taking a leisurely step, Jianchou slowly exhaled a breath, dodged the countless wind blades, and walked forward step by step.
Ahead is not the end of the Black Wind Cave, but the end of the map carried by Zhilinsou.
One thousand three hundred feet.
I'm sorry.
Standing on the wall of the cave, Jianchou saw the names that he would see every hundred feet after one thousand feet.
"Yashan, Qu Zhengfeng."
Unscrupulous and arrogant.
Only this time, there were a few more words.
"On the 16th day, we stopped at 1,300 feet. Looking at my peers, who can be defeated?"
Compared with the powerful and imposing manner of the previous few times, this last sentence has a sense of calmness, as if looking at the world with hands behind one's back.
Looking at my peers, who can lose
So light, like a sigh.
Didn't he feel a bit lonely as a master
Jianchou couldn't help but sneer.
Ahead, it’s one thousand three hundred feet away.
Since Qu Zhengfeng dared to call himself the best among his fellow cultivators, and he was clearly at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and Jianchou was able to walk 1,300 feet, he should not be unable to advance an inch.
Who can lose
Isn't she the closest to this position
It doesn’t cost money to brag!
Besides, hadn't she already reached 1,300 feet? Moreover, she was only at the late stage of foundation building!
So, Jianchou casually wrote a word: "Me!"
