The Kunlun Mountains are shrouded in a layer of mist in the early morning.
A flying boat breaks through the fog, flies over thousands of miles of frozen mountains, and flies to the distance with the morning mist and billowing white steam.
Feng Ci stood on the deck of the flying boat, poking his head and looking down quite curiously.
This airship is actually an improved ferry. The interior of the ship is hollow, divided into three floors, and a deck platform. The deck has a wide view, and there is a layer of transparent and thin glass cover outside, which wraps the entire hull and deck, and has the effect of sheltering from the wind.
This thing is not something that can be produced by the tricks that Feng Ci passed down back then.
In fact, before Feng Ci was chosen by the Heavenly Dao to save the world, he was just an ordinary disciple of cultivation. At that time, there were not so many cultivators in the world. Facing the invasion of the demons, mortals had almost no power to resist.
In order to prevent the disaster of destroying the world, Heaven chose him, passed on the supreme law to him, gave him immortality, and poured him a lot of knowledge beyond that era.
For example, witch doctor voodoo, such as various spell formations, and... Yanjia organ technique.
Being suddenly infused with so many abilities is no different from the cultivation of seedlings. Feng Ci has not fully integrated many of the spells here. At that time, the war was urgent, and he was not given time to explore slowly.
For example, Yanjia Mechanism, the greatest use for Fengci, is to create a mechanism trap that cannot be sensed by spiritual power, and the first generation of flying kites for communication.
As for using it to make daily necessities, Feng Ci never thought about it back then.
In fact, not only the Wanfa Pavilion, but also the Six Gates and even the entire cultivation world, are no longer what they used to be.
Every time he thought of this, Feng Ci felt quite emotional.
—The creativity and imagination of ordinary people cannot be underestimated.
***
Suddenly there were footsteps behind him, Feng Ci turned his head, and a boy who was only half a person tall walked in front of him.
The boy looked delicate and cute, with big eyes, wearing a tan short shirt, looking up at Feng Ci with his head up.
Feng Ci blinked: "You..."
How could there be children on this flying boat
Before he could ask, the boy raised his hands, raised his chest flat, and pulled out a slender fairy sword directly from his chest.
Feng Ci: "..."
Feng Ci: "???"
The boy handed the fairy sword to Feng Ci.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the boy had no aura of life on his body, and although his eyes were beautiful, they were somewhat dull.
Not a living person.
A pair of hands stretched out from the side, and took the fairy sword in the boy's hand.
The person who came was young, probably in his early twenties. He took the sword, touched the boy's head, and said with a smile, "Go."
The boy nodded, turned around and left, no matter how he walked or moved, he was no different from ordinary people.
Fengci looked at the boy's back, and the young man beside him said, "It's from Yanjia, and Pavilion Master Yuchi sent it not long ago. It looks like a real person, right? It's a pity that the function is not perfect, it can only be used to store and transport items."
As soon as he came up, he talked a lot with Feng Ci as if he was familiar with it. When he spoke, his eyes lit up, and he looked full of energy.
But Fengci didn't know him at all.
Feng Ci asked: "Are you..."
"My name is Lin Chang'an. We met before, in Lingwu Mountain." The young man winked at him and said with a smile, "I was the one who helped you get on the flying boat at that time, but you fainted at that time, probably not remember me."
Feng Ci really doesn't remember.
It was too late at that time, and he lost too much blood in his body. After Pei Qianyue left, he fell into a coma, and when he woke up, he had already arrived in Langfeng City.
Feng Ci said, "Sorry."
"It's okay." Lin Chang'an was straightforward, and waved his hands indifferently, "You were injured so badly at that time, it's really strange that you can remember me. By the way, this is for you."
He handed over the fairy sword he got from the Yanjia people.
"Langfeng City will create special matching swords for every inner disciple, but you were promoted from the outer sect, so you haven't had time to match it for you. This is a spare fairy sword on the flying boat. You use it first, and wait until you come back." After returning to the teacher's door, the senior brother will help you build another one."
When he said this, he felt wrong, and quickly said: "Don't get me wrong! My master, Elder Qingxu, is the swordsmith in the sect and in charge of the swordsmith pavilion, so when the disciples in the sect need to make swords, I am almost in charge, nothing else mean!"
Feng Ci: "Pfft."
This child is different from the other disciples he met in Langfeng City, much cuter.
"I didn't misunderstand." Feng Ci took the fairy sword, "Thank you, Senior Brother Lin."
Lin Changan's ears were red, he scratched his hair, and smiled embarrassedly.
However, Feng Ci remembered another matter, and asked him: "Senior Brother Lin has been following Senior Brother Xie to investigate the disaster of Xianmen?"
Lin Changan: "That's right, what's wrong?"
Feng Ci: "Then last night when Senior Brother Xie took his disciples to rescue Wuya Valley, were you there?"
"Of course I am." When this matter was mentioned, Lin Chang'an suddenly turned bitter, "Actually, I don't want to go at all, I just want to stay in the teacher's school and learn how to forge swords with the master. But there is no way. Be careful to make the ranking higher, and they were arrested by them to assist Senior Brother Xie in investigating this matter. I would have pretended to lose earlier if I knew it."
Feng Ci: "..."
It is really rare that Langfeng City, which has a strict academic style, can produce such a salty fish that does not seek to make progress.
Feng Ci coughed lightly, and asked again: "What happened last night, why are you all well, and thank you brother for being injured?"
"It's not because Wuyagu opened the mountain sealing formation."
Lin Chang'an sighed: "I really don't know whether Wuyagu wanted to ask us for help or to harm us. When the big formation of closing the mountain was opened, the mountain was covered with fog, and our brothers and sisters got separated as soon as we entered. Brother Xie is probably just lucky." Not good, everyone is running around in the mountains, only he ran into the murderer."
“…by the time we found him, he was wounded.”
Feng Ci lowered his eyes.
It makes sense for Wu Yagu to open a maze in order to protect himself.
But why was Xie Wuhan the only one who encountered the enemy
"By the way, you have to be more careful when you arrive in Wuya Valley." Lin Chang'an reminded, "You must follow the brothers closely. If you accidentally get separated, you may not be able to get out."
Feng Ci was curious: "The Fengshan formation is really so powerful?"
"Of course." Lin Chang'an said, "After the mountain sealing formation is opened, the entire valley will become a maze, and there will be countless teleportation circles in it. Once you touch it, you don't know where it will be teleported. Yesterday, the brothers were so scattered."
Just as Feng Ci wanted to say that this formation sounded familiar, Lin Changan said, "I heard that the founder of Wuya Valley learned from Lingxiaomen before, and this formation was learned from Lingxiaomen. That's Qianqiu's ancestor." Can the things passed down be powerful?"
Feng Ci: "..."
Come to think of it, this is the maze he invented to deal with the demons before, no wonder it sounds so familiar.
Lin Chang'an sighed: "I don't know why the city lord wants to take you with me. Wuya Valley is in danger now, and it's dangerous for you to follow with a child."
child.
Feng Ci's eyes twitched.
"However, if you can be favored by the city lord, you must have extraordinary talents." Lin Changan didn't notice his abnormality, and continued, "Our city lord has been in charge of Langfeng City for nearly a hundred years. I don't know how many people want to worship him, but He has never accepted any disciples. You were brought up from the outer gate after only a short time, I couldn’t believe it when I first heard about it.”
Feng Ci is silent.
Who would believe this, not even himself.
Qianqiu Patriarch I was famous, returned to his homeland after an absence of three thousand years, was bullied and bullied by his own little pet every day, and now he has become his little apprentice.
Who dares to believe this
His Xiao Hei is really good at playing.
Feng Ci was speechless for a while, Lin Changan looked at him, but did not speak.
The young man was lively and cute, and his slender figure easily aroused the protective desire of others. At this moment, he held the sword in both hands and lowered his head slightly, looking innocent and well-behaved.
Lin Changan's heartbeat quickened inexplicably, and he leaned over and was about to say something more, but he heard footsteps behind him again.
He turned his head and saw the figure in the black robe.
"See the city lord!" Lin Changan quickly knelt down and saluted.
Pei Qianyue walked over with a cold voice: "It's almost here, why don't you prepare?"
Lin Changan answered "Yes", and immediately forgot all his thoughts, and ran away in a hurry.
Feng Ci looked at his back: "..."
Although his personality is very lively and his work is very salty, but in the matter of being afraid of Pei Qianyue, all the disciples in Langfeng City are exactly the same.
and…
Deliberately walking and making noise to scare others, I really don't know whether to call him childish or boring.
But Feng Ci didn't say anything, but when Pei Qianyue approached, he held his sword obediently and saluted: "I have seen the city lord."
Pei Qianyue: "What did you call me?"
Feng Ci ground his teeth: "... Master."
Feng Ci felt his scalp tingle after shouting these two words, but Pei Qianyue seemed to like it very much, and nodded in satisfaction.
Feng Ci swore that he saw a flash of a smile on Pei Qianyue's face.
The smile disappeared quickly, Pei Qianyue took a step forward, walked to Feng Ci's side, and stood side by side with him.
The flying boat has penetrated the thick cloud layer and is now flying above the cloud layer. Above their heads is the blue sky, under their feet is the continuous snow-white clouds, and the morning sun rises from a distance, sprinkled a piece of light gold.
Feng Ci turned his head to look at the man beside him.
Pei Qianyue never seemed to have anything to do with Yang Guang. He always lived in darkness, lonely and cold, as if covered by an extremely hard shell, which could not let in any light.
But now, he stood quietly facing the rising sun, and the sun shone on his face, softening his whole body.
Softer and more lively.
Pei Qianyue: "What are you looking at?"
Feng Ci was confident and confident: "Look at you."
Pei Qianyue: "What are you looking at me for?"
Feng Ci: "The city lord is so beautiful, so many people can't ask for it, why don't you let people see it?"
"You think I'm pretty?"
"That's natural." Feng Ci said, "The City Lord is the most beautiful person I've ever seen."
This is what Feng Ci said in his heart.
As expected of a cub raised by him, he looks better in human form than other spirits.
Pei Qianyue stopped talking again.
Feng Ci didn't care, he thought for a while, and reminded: "Wuya Valley is dangerous, you have to be careful."
Pei Qianyue: "Why do you say that?"
"It's just a feeling." Feng Ci said, "We have seen the strength of the murderer before. He has the ability to kill people in the secret place under the banyan tree without leaving any clues. How could he be trapped by a small mountain-closing formation? , let Xie Wuhan see him, and escaped alive."
Pei Qianyue: "Didn't Tian Xuanzong also escape from his hands?"
"But as far as I know, none of the disciples of Tianxuanzong have ever seen the murderer. They don't know the appearance, figure, or even whether it is male or female." guess, it doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it.”
"You just woke up, so you shouldn't take the risk of making this trip. If you don't worry about those disciples in the sect, I'll go by myself..."
When he said this, his voice stopped abruptly.
Feng Ci is really not very good at lying to hide himself. Although Pei Qianyue has seen his ability under the root of the banyan tree, he actually hid it at that time. At this time, when he said this, he revealed a lot of information.
Recalling that before Pei Qianyue fell into a coma, the longest time Feng Ci and Pei Qianyue spent together was the day and night when he followed him down the mountain. But in just one day and one night, Pei Qianyue found out that he was not Lu Jingming, and his cultivation level was not low.
If he continued to stay with Pei Qianyue for another two days, Xiao Que might not be needed, and he would be able to expose his identity completely.
Feng Ci was helpless.
But Pei Qianyue didn't seem to take this to heart, but asked, "Are you worried about me?"
Feng Ci: "..."
He was talking about business, but this man was thinking about something.
Sure enough, Pei Qianyue's next sentence was: "Speak up, my boy, are you worried about being a teacher?"
The wind is gone.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Feng Ci always felt that after waking up this time, he seemed to be in a good mood all the time, even when he was tossing Feng Ci, he didn't look unhappy, on the contrary... full of interest.
For example, let him study all night, such as forcing him to call him Shizun.
Of course, this didn't make Feng Ci happy.
I just don't want to argue with him for the time being.
Feng Ci gritted his teeth and smiled: "Yes, the disciple is very worried about Master."
Pei Qian was more satisfied.
"no need to worry."
The flying boat began to descend slowly, and through the clouds, one could see the endless mountains and forests below. Pei Qianyue lowered his head slightly, and the corners of his lips raised a shallow arc, but there was no trace of a smile on his face: "Wu Ya Gu, I have to come, after all..."
"Someone wants me to come."
***
Wuya Valley is located in a stretch of mountains, with few people and steep terrain. But now that the Great Formation to seal the mountain was opened, the mountain was shrouded in a thick layer of mist, not even sunlight could penetrate.
Feng Ci followed Pei Qianyue to the ground first, and behind them, sword lights lit up, and Lin Changan walked out with a group of Langfeng City disciples.
Lin Chang'an said: "City Master, this is the outer edge of the Great Formation that seals the mountain. From here, you can only enter on foot."
As soon as Pei Qianyue raised his hand, a few fallen leaves around his feet were lifted up by spiritual force.
The fallen leaves turned into four little snakes in the void, wrapped in a faint light of spiritual power, and flew forward lightly.
"Divide into four teams and follow them. It will take you to the exit of the mountain sealing formation." Pei Qianyue ordered lightly, "Set up a sword formation at the exit, and I want the murderer to never come back."
Lin Changan replied "Yes", and asked again: "Then you..."
Pei Qianyue said: "My beloved disciple and I will go to the valley to save people."
Feng Ci: "..."
Another name, right
Pei Qianyue didn't intend to ask his opinion at all, and walked forward directly.
Feng Ci has nowhere to vent his anger, so he can only follow.
The key to this mountain sealing formation is that it uses miasma and mist to block the mountain roads from each other, and places ninety-nine and eighty-one transmission light gates in it. Arbitrary connections between the light gates will change from time to time, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction when you are in it.
Back then, Feng Ci used this magic circle to trap the demon army for three days.
Without stopping, Pei Qianyue walked into the woods with Fengci, and soon came to the first light gate.
Seeing that he was about to walk in, Feng Ci raised his hand to stop him, and smiled: "Master, if we take a wrong step in this magic formation, we will be teleported to any place, and the whole formation will change. Are you sure it is this gate?" ?"
Pei Qianyue said calmly: "There will be no mistakes."
After speaking, he went straight in.
After a while, the two came out from another light door.
The solution to the Fengshan Great Formation is like this. Among the ninety-nine and eighty-one transmission light gates, only nine are life gates. Passing through these nine life gates is to break the magic circle.
Pei Qianyue stopped, and slightly turned his head in the direction of Fengci.
He was obviously expressionless, but Feng Ci could read a bit of complacency from this little gesture.
… Xiao Hei, you are really naive sometimes.
Feng Ci naturally knew how to solve the magic circle, and deliberately didn't intervene, because he wanted to see how much Pei Qianyue had learned from the pile of cheats he left behind.
Now it seems that I really learned a lot.
***
Knowing the solution, the Fengshan Great Formation is like nothing in front of them. Not long after, the two of them came to the last teleportation light gate.
Feng Ci suddenly grabbed Pei Qianyue: "Wait a minute..."
Pei Qianyue asked: "What?"
"It's nothing, but..." Feng Ci looked around and frowned, "Don't you think it's a little strange? It seems too... quiet."
There was no sound in the woods, as if even the wind had stopped.
not only that.
If the murderer is really still trapped in this mountain formation, why did they enter the mountain for so long without hearing a single sound.
"Are you really worried about me?" Pei Qianyue suddenly asked him again.
Feng Ci felt that he was talking nonsense: "If I'm not worried about you, why do I keep following you?"
Pei Qianyue: "Why?"
Fengci didn't answer.
Naturally, it was because Pei Qianyue was his little black snake, the only old friend he had in this world after three thousand years. If it was said that he was still wary of Pei Qianyue before, then during the few days when the little black snake was unconscious, he had already included it as his own invisibly.
As long as Pei Qianyue doesn't stand against him, he is willing to protect him to the end.
But these, Feng Ci still can't explain to him.
Pei Qianyue smiled lightly.
The laughter was muffled.
Then, he turned around and stepped into the door of light.
"Hey, you—" Feng Ci just wanted to call him, but his expression froze suddenly.
The Guangmen, which was still as calm as water just now, began to tremble violently after Pei Qianyue entered. The dark purple light inside the gate of light suddenly surged, and the spiritual power swirled violently, until finally, it dissipated into the void.
This way is not the gate of life.
***
Feng Ci walked quickly through the dark forest.
The last door that Pei Qianyue just walked to was not the door of life, but before he walked in, even Feng Ci didn't see anything unusual. There is only one explanation for this, the Shengmen has been tampered with.
Only the initiator of the formation can do this.
His hunch was right.
Boundless Valley, there is indeed a problem.
A sword light flashed in the forest, and the dark purple light door shattered in response. Feng Ci put his sword back into its sheath, his face sinking like water.
Just now when the light gate disappeared, all the teleportation light gates in this valley were restarted. If they want to crack the magic circle again, they can only find a way to go back to the periphery of the magic circle and start from the beginning through the nine life gates.
But Feng Ci doesn't have such patience right now.
After the light gate was shattered, the miasma and fog near the forest where he was standing also dissipated.
There is another way to break the Great Formation of Sealing Mountains, and that is to completely destroy it.
***
boom-
The last light door shattered in front of Feng Ci, and the fog in the mountains was completely dispelled.
He was rarely in such a hurry, but the other party had set up this formation, and even spent a lot of time changing the tricks, obviously aimed at Pei Qianyue.
However, Pei Qianyue had just woken up from a deep sleep, and his sea of consciousness hadn't fully recovered.
Who exactly wants to do something to him, and what exactly does he want to do
After the fog cleared, the surrounding vision suddenly became clear.
Not far from the mountain road where Fengci stood, stood a solemn and ancient stone gate with three large characters written on it.
- "Boundless Valley".
But just under the stone gate, there were several shriveled corpses. Wearing uniform uniforms, he should be a disciple of Wu Yagu.
Feng Ci's eyebrows twitched, an ominous premonition instinctively emerged in his heart, and he walked forward quickly.
After entering the stone gate, go further in, and soon come to the depths of the valley.
There is gurgling water in the valley, the houses are built against the mountains, and there is a meadow in the middle. Wuya Valley has practiced in seclusion for many years. This should be a quiet and peaceful place, but now, there are disciple corpses everywhere on the grass, and there is a mess everywhere.
Feng Ci stepped over the corpse without looking sideways, and saw the familiar figure under a tall banyan tree in the center.
Pei Qianyue sat under the tree, his face pale, but there was no sign of being injured or about to be possessed.
Feng Ci breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over: "How are you?"
"It came so slowly." Pei Qianyue was still mentally annoyed at him, "It seems that he is not worried enough about the safety of the teacher."
Feng Ci lost his temper by him.
He put away his sword and stepped forward to help Pei Qianyue up, but just as he touched his arm, he felt something was wrong.
Pei Qianyue is a black snake cultivator, and his body is cold all year round, but now... his body is very hot.
The scalding heat was accurately transmitted to Feng Ci's palm through the thick robe.
Pei Qianyue was lifted up by him, his body tilted, and he fell on Feng Ci.
He exhaled a mouthful of scalding foul air by his ear.
Feng Ci frowned: "Are you poisoned?"
