After Ouyang Xiaoleng and others rescued Xiaoxiao, the master of the Songshan Temple from being chased by a pack of wolves, they decided to rest outside the mountain gate for one night, firstly because of Xiaoxiao's injuries, and secondly because they would be more vulnerable to being lurked in the mountains at night. Sneak attacks by wolves and monsters.
Xiaoxiao was unwilling to immediately enter the tent vacated for her to rest, but rambled on about how she died, how she became the God Lord of Songshan Temple, and how she was deceived by the God Lords whose bodies were taken over by the fallen God's Judgement. The story of luring the wolf into the house was told to Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others. When the first harvest was mentioned, she began to cry uncontrollably.
"Chu He must be blaming me, just like I resented the friend who abandoned me..." she choked.
"No, everything he did was so that you could escape from Songshan Temple and survive." Ouyang Hongye comforted her first, and then thought that he might as well ask her about the situation along the way to Songshan Temple. , so he continued to ask, "How can we get to Matsuyama Shrine from here?"
Xiaoxiao wiped away the tears hanging on his face, thought for a while and replied: "No matter which path you choose to take, there will be two must-pass levels, and these two places are already controlled by Qingyun and the others. "
"Can you tell me what those two levels are like? Who is in charge?" Ouyang Hongye asked her.
"After we enter the mountain gate, we will first pass by Hidden Pine City, and then go down to a place called the Mountain God's Cup. There stands a huge bronze wine cup. It is said to be the cup that the mountain god used to drink. This is the base of the Black Wolves. There, they all seem to be controlled by a general named Hei Yun under Qingyun."
After hearing Xiao Xiao's words, Ouyang Hongye repeated: "Hei Yun..."
Xiaoxiao looked up at him and said, "Yes! If you can successfully pass the mountain god bottle, then you have completed half of the journey. Next is a naturally formed cave called Yixiantian. Through that cave, you can enter the real world. The path connects to Songshan Temple, but that cave is now occupied by monsters, so it’s not an exaggeration to say it is a monster cave.”
"Didn't you say that you once secretly returned to Songshan Temple? Since there are so many monster handlers, how did you do it alone?" Ouyang Hongye felt that there was some inconsistency in Xiao Xiao's words.
"Yes, there were no such guards when I went back. Those two checkpoints were obviously not set up to guard against me. They also knew that I had no ability to attack at all."
"Then I understand what's going on. These levels are used to deal with us!" Ouyang Hongye nodded.
Ouyang Xiaoleng recalled his past experience when he met Hei Yun, and couldn't help but said: "I have fought with Hei Yun several times before, but I still can't figure out how strong he is. Although he is loyal to Qingyun, Xia Qiu He once said that he seemed to be desperately searching for something."
"No matter what tricks Qingyun uses, he can't stop us. We are completely different now from that time! If he dares to look down on us again, let him look good!" Qianqi winked at Lingyu and said.
Ling Yu laughed naturally. He suddenly recalled that after rescuing Xia Qiu from the Immortal Lake Temple, he wanted to tell his companions why he became a demon with the help of the Eagle Owl Demon, but because of the failure of the action, he kept looking for him. If you don't have the right opportunity to tell the truth, or even forget about it without realizing it, you might as well tell them the truth before they attack the next temple.
He made up his mind and said to Qian Qi and a few others: "That day, I finally found the location of Teacher Eagle Owl and worshiped him as my teacher. Although he made a brand new weapon for me, it was helpless that my power was impossible no matter what. There will be a big breakthrough in a short period of time, but Sister Xia is still in danger and there is not much time to waste. In addition, Teacher Eagle Owl told me that he has always been worried about a former human friend. I deeply blame myself for his death, so I don’t want to miss the opportunity to rescue Sister Xia and make myself regret it. So when Teacher Eagle Owl proposed that becoming a demon can help me make the leap in the shortest time, but at the same time, I have to bear the greatest risk and Although I hesitated when I was in endless pain, I finally made this decision... "
"What to decide?! Decided to take on all this alone?! You really don't regard us as friends!" Qianqi patted Ling Yu on the shoulder hard and complained.
"I can teach you the song to subjugate the devil and soothe the soul in the future!"
Although Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't seem to react as strongly as Qianqi, his simple words made Lingyu feel warm. Seeing the reactions of Qian Qi and Ouyang Xiaoleng, Ouyang Hongye couldn't help but smile and nod.
The next day, just after dawn, they entered Hidden Pine. Xiao Xiaozhong transformed into an indigo bird and landed on Ling Yu's shoulder to guide them, while they rode on their own demon horses and headed to the first checkpoint, which was the Mountain God Zun not far from Hidden Pine City. There are scents left by wolves everywhere in the mountains. It seems that they have been patrolling and will notify Qingyun and his group at any time, or intercept them.
Mochizuki walked at the end of the team. He always liked to talk and laugh, but he became taciturn after hearing the news from Thorns that the poison in the little snow rabbit's body had erupted again. From time to time, he would frown and fall into deep thought. Whenever there was a bird song above his head, his breathing would become rapid, fearing that the thorns would bring some bad news.
Seeing this, Ouyang Hongye could only worry secretly. He knew that no matter what he said at this time, it would be impossible to alleviate Wangyue's worries. Because the reality is right in front of us. Unless the antidote can be obtained from Qingyun, the little snow rabbit's life may be in danger at any time. How can Mochizuki not be sad? !
When passing by Hidden Pine City, Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others looked in the direction of the city gate. There were already overgrown weeds outside the dark cave. After the death of Wang Jue Ghost Faced Scorpion, the city composed of connected caves was abandoned again, which was a pity for the endless metal in the city.
The little one on Lingyu's shoulder suddenly flew up, flapping its wings in one direction and saying, "Look! That's the mountain god bottle!"
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, a huge platform was built with stones on the top of a hill that was not too high. The ten-meter-high mountain god bottle stood there quietly. The bottle was supported by three legs, and the wolves happened to be resting in the middle between its bottom and the ground.
"Are those the entire wolf pack?" Ouyang Hongye asked Xiaoxiao.
"Absolutely, there should be a few responsible for patrolling in the mountains!" Xiaoxiao responded affirmatively.
"Do we have to go through there? Can't we take the road below?" Qian Qi still couldn't figure out why he had to take that road.
"Shanshenzun, Yixiantian and Songshan Temple, you can only reach the third one by passing through the first two places in order. This is the rule set by the god Gansu. In this way, as long as the checkpoints are set up, once someone wants to approach the temple, it will be very easy It will be discovered easily, and Chu He and I can make preparations in advance." Xiaoxiao explained the reason to Qian Qi and others.
"That's it!" Qian Qi said as he touched his head.
"Stupid dragon, how come you are still afraid of those wolves with your current ability?!" Lingyu couldn't help but tease Qian Qi, because the understanding from his friends made him return to his previous happiness and mischief.
Qianqi was indeed tricked and retorted unconvinced: "What a joke! Huh, I can take care of them all by myself, don't let any of you interfere!"
Before he finished speaking, he flew out, first activated the water control technique to transform into a water dragon, and drove it directly towards the wolves at the bottom of the wine bottle. But just when he was about to reach the wine bottle, he saw a familiar figure standing on top of the wine bottle.
"Hei Yun!" He shouted the other party's name loudly.
Hei Yun didn't speak, he just stretched out his hand and attracted a cloud of black mist, pushing it towards the water dragon controlled by Qian Qi.
"What's the big deal with just such a dark cloud!" Qian Qi said disdainfully.
"Qianqi, be careful!" Ouyang Hongye warned from behind him, while speeding up to catch up with him.
"What?!" Qian Qi turned around and asked.
He didn't quite understand what Ouyang Hongye wanted to be careful about, but when he turned around and looked at the dark clouds carefully, he realized that there were thunder and lightning shooting out from the dark clouds. If the water dragon encountered those thunder and lightning, , the consequences of connecting water and electricity will be disastrous. He quickly turned around to avoid the fast-moving dark cloud, but he didn't expect that the dark cloud quickly divided into several pieces and tried to surround him. In desperation, he had no choice but to put away the water dragon and retreat to his companions.
"I didn't expect Hei Yun to have such ability!" Qian Qi said angrily.
"It seems that not only have we become stronger, but the enemies hiding in the dark are also different from the past!" Ling Yu came to him and responded.
Seeing that Qianqi's water dragon had been driven away, Hei Yun took back the thunder cloud. It is said that this thundercloud has probably followed him since he was born, and its body is a black jade pendant in the shape of a cloud. He has always hung it on his chest, and it was only recently that he realized that this pendant could transform into a thunder cloud. He suddenly realized that it was a treasure, and the thunder cloud could prevent Qian Qi from using the water control technique.
"I don't know who was clamoring just now to deal with the wolves alone." Ouyang Xiaoleng called out the Bell Scale Sword and said. He just wanted to try out the new weapon he got from Meng'er. "You guys come and deal with the wolves." Qun, leave Black Fall to me!"
As he spoke, he stood up and pointed his sword towards Hei Yun. Hei Yue quickly summoned his Black Meteor Sword and prepared to fight. When the pearl-white bell scale sword collided with Hei Yun's broadsword, the sword body turned into bright red again. He felt that although this sword was not as heavy as his divine ice, it was still a good blow to Hei Yun.
Hei Yun clearly felt that Ouyang Xiaoleng's power was no longer the same as before. Although he heard that Ouyang Xiaoleng had unlocked the seal in his body and thus released the power of gods and demons, he did not expect that he would be able to do so in such a short period of time. It has grown to this point in a short period of time.
While catching his sword, he had used most of his strength to prevent him from falling into the wine bottle, but he could only barely stand still. Moreover, the weapon Ouyang Xiaoleng is using now is not his own divine ice, but the Bell Scale Sword that he just obtained from Meng'er. If he switches back to Divine Ice, his attack power will definitely increase.
"Long time no see!" Ouyang Xiaoleng said coldly to Hei Yun who was standing on the edge of the wine bottle while hanging in the air.
"Yeah, you're fine!" Hei Yun had the same expressionless face as him.
"Since we are both people who don't like to talk, let's just compete!"
"Yes, agreed!"
