A crashing sound of waves reached Ye Chuan's ears. After taking a closer look, he realized that he had walked into a lake in a trance, and the lake water was submerged up to his chest.
If you take a few steps forward, you will be completely submerged under the water. The lake, which was originally calm and sparkling, suddenly started to have waves. The waves were at least ten meters high, roaring and lapping against the rocks on the shore. It was the deafening sound of the waves that woke Ye Chuan and pulled him out of his hallucination.
sharp!
Who was it that placed such a powerful ban
Ye Chuan was shocked, sweating profusely, and hurriedly retreated.
The restrictions in Xiaoyao Lake were far beyond his expectation. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your mind and get lost in hallucinations and auditory hallucinations. After waking up, you will sink back into it in the blink of an eye. Even Ye Chuan had never encountered such a restriction before, and it was even more severe than the restriction in the Siren Holy Land Tomb World.
"What's going on? Why is there suddenly no wind and waves in the lake?"
"Look, those are not ordinary waves, they are Tai Chi whirlpools. Quick, report to the elders!"
The guards patrolling nearby also quickly noticed the strangeness of the lake, and they were all frightened. Some people have been guarding the area for more than ten years and have never seen such weird waves. Standing on the beach, you can only see waves rushing towards the shore. Standing at a high place, you can find that the entire Xiaoyao Lake is full of strange whirlpools, spinning rapidly like Yin-Yang Tai Chi, and then setting off waves. Above the lake, there is an indescribable and inexplicable wave of power. This wave suddenly gets stronger and weaker with the rotation of Yin Yang Tai Chi. It is extremely penetrating. Standing a thousand meters away, your heart can't help but follow the rhythm. The slow beating makes one's heart palpitate.
The strangeness of the lake shocked the older generation of Heavenly Demon Sect disciples, and more and more people came after hearing the news. Ye Chuan took advantage of the cover of night and retreated to the shore early to hide in the willow forest, hiding aside and watching what happened.
A long dragon with torches appeared in the distance from far to near.
The sound of whizzing through the air was endless. Surrounded by a large group of elites from the Celestial Demon Sect, an old man in green clothes with a full head of heaven rushed over quickly on a flying sword. He was old with silver hair, but he was full of energy, his eyes were as bright as a torch, and his face was cold. Angry and powerful.
"See Elder Tianqing!"
Seeing this old man in green, the guards and disciples of Tianyao Sect present all bowed and saluted.
With great power in hand, Elder Tian Qing, who was in charge of the Tianyao Sect when the white-haired Queen Zhao Tianbi was in retreat, overriding other deacons and elders, rushed over after hearing the news. Ever since Tiannu Hongzixia was imprisoned in Tianyao Cave, the old guy's power has become even more powerful. The white-haired Queen Zhao Tianbi rarely appears in seclusion all year round. He basically has the final say in the entire Tianyao Sect. In the past, he had the final say towards Tiannu Hongzi. Xia and the sect masters who remained neutral either surrendered knowingly or were ruthlessly purged, and the entire Tianyao Sect basically became his one-word hall.
"What's going on? Is there anything weird in Xiaoyao Lake?"
Elder Tian Qing looked around with a serious look on his face.
It's strange to say that just a moment ago, the lake surface, which was full of Tai Chi whirlpool waves, became calm in the blink of an eye. Not to mention the terrifying whirlpools, there were not even a ripple. The lake surface was as calm as a mirror.
The Tianyao Sect disciples and guards all lowered their heads, and no one dared to look directly at Elder Tian Qing.
The surface of the lake was shocking just now, but now it is calm. No one can understand what is going on, and they don't know how to explain it to Elder Tianqing.
"Tomorrow is the sacrificial ceremony and the martial arts competition. Now, it is the time to show the strength and style of the sect. The hall is full of guests, and sects from all over the world have come to congratulate after hearing the news. At this juncture, don't you feel comfortable if you don't make some trouble? How long has it been since the Tiannu incident? Will the demons and snake gods who have just restrained themselves for a period of time be unwilling to challenge the authority of the sect again? I have stayed in the Tianyao Sect for thousands of years, from a small outer sect servant to the deacon today. Elder, why haven’t you heard about the Tai Chi Restriction or what’s weird about Little Demon Lake?”
Elder Tianqing was furious, and his eyes swept across people's faces viciously, as if he wanted to find out the person who was secretly causing trouble.
The disciples of the Tianyao Sect present lowered their heads, their hearts were filled with fear, and even their bodies were trembling slightly.
During the Tiannu incident, Elder Tianqing showed his iron-blooded skills. All those who publicly complained about Tiannu, from the elders of the sect to the ordinary outer disciples, were all bloody purged. Elder Tianqing, who took over the sect in place of the white-haired Queen Zhao Tianbi, sealed people's mouths with cold killing. It was only a year or two after the incident. Many bloody scenes are still fresh in the memories of the disciples. Since then, Elder Tianqing, who was already in power, has become more and more arrogant. Anyone who dares to resist his orders is either thrown into prison or imprisoned. No longer alive. Now, the old guy is furious and angry. If he misunderstands him as a so-called evil spirit, it will be over.
"Why, are all of them mute?"
Elder Tian Qing scolded loudly, with a furious and murderous look on his face, but he was proud in his heart. He was very satisfied with the reaction of his disciples and had the Tianyao Sect firmly under his control. After a pause, he looked at a master from the Heavenly Demon Sect standing in the crowd wearing heavy armor, "Man Wenjun, if I remember correctly, it is your turn to be in charge of this area today, right?"
"Yes, Elder Tianqing, I am on duty today, but it was indeed..." Man Wenjun, the commander of the guards, replied bravely, with drops of sweat on his forehead. As a result, before he could finish his words, Elder Tian Qing waved his hand, and several masters rushed forward to capture him.
"Detain him and put him in the sky prison, and then interrogate him in public after the sect's sacrificial ceremony! At this critical moment for the sect, you must stick to your posts and do not believe in rumors, let alone spread rumors. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"
Elder Tianqing glanced at the people coldly, turned around and walked away. Having said so much, the last sentence was the key point. All the disciples of the Tianyao Sect present understood it and nodded, saying that they would keep it in their hearts. The guard commander, the Manchu Army, was still struggling. He had good cultivation and was a late-stage real-person master. However, several of Elder Tianqing's personal guards were obviously more powerful. They suppressed him tightly and even dragged him down. Poor guard commander, because he was usually selfless and would not please Elder Tianqing, he was purged by the latter.
"It's unfair, it's unfair..."
"Tian Qingzi, you old dog, you must die a good death!"
…
The roars and curses of the Manchu army led by the guards could be heard in the distance, accompanied by shrill wails. Being thrown into jail is no different from being executed, it's just a matter of time.
Elder Tianqing, who was leaving with his flying sword, heard Man Wenjun's curse from a distance and paused.
"Elder, do you want to kill that guy from the Manchu Army who is deceiving others with his monstrous words now?" A personal guard stepped forward and lost no time in trying to please him.
"No, being imprisoned is enough. In addition..., the most elite Sky Demon Guards will be immediately dispatched to guard the Little Demon Lake day and night from now on, and no one will be allowed to approach!" Elder Tian Qing ordered in a deep voice.
"Elder, is this Little Demon Lake really..." The guard was shocked.
"That guy Man Wenjun is the confidant of the goddess of heaven. This is unmistakable. No matter how deep he hides it, it is useless. However, if there is such a big thing as an abnormality in Xiaoyao Lake, I understand that he does not dare to lie in public, and he does not have the ability to cause trouble behind the scenes. ." Elder Tian Qing sneered. He did one thing in front of everyone but another behind his back. His face darkened and he murmured to himself, "The Tianyao Sect will remain standing. Unless there is a change in the Little Demon Lake, is this ancient rumor true? ? Could it be that the fate of our Heavenly Demon Sect is really..."
"No, after the sacrificial ceremony is held, our Tianyao Sect's luck will definitely improve. Elder, do you want to ask the Queen for instructions?" the guard asked.
"No, don't alarm the Heavenly Queen for now. When it comes to our Tianyao Sect's luck, huh, it's all the fault of Zixia Tiannu and the boy named Ye from the Yunwu Sect. It's not him who suppressed our Tianyao Sect's luck. Forcibly borrowed and damaged, how could there be so many series of things happening in our Tianyao Sect?"
Elder Tian Qing's voice was cold and filled with deep resentment, and the group stepped on flying swords and quickly disappeared into the thick night. Unconsciously, a tall figure slowly walked out from below where they had just flown.
"The Heavenly Demon Sect will remain standing unless something changes in the Little Demon Lake..."
Ye Chuan murmured to himself, looking at the vast lake with some hesitation.
Now, one thing is certain. During the long years when I was trapped in the God Burial Valley, something must have changed in the Tianyao Sect. Someone had tampered with Xiaoyao Lake. But who exactly is that person? Is it the ban imposed by the Blue-Eyed Demon Queen herself or someone else? What is his purpose? I don’t know.
If you want to find the whereabouts of the goddess Hong Zixia and explore the Tianyao Cave, you must risk your life across the Xiaoyao Lake. Should you go or not
Standing by the sparkling blue Xiaoyao Lake, Ye Chuan hesitated.
