"Luo Yuan?"
Qi Qingsong turned his head to look at Nie You, and asked in confusion: "Is there anyone named Luo Yuan among the outer disciples?"
Nie You, who was a little thin, thought for a moment and shook his head, "There are too many outer disciples, and there are some I don't know, but I have definitely never heard of this person."
Shen Dong was stunned.
According to Ye Fei, Luo Yuan is extremely extraordinary and is definitely not unknown in the Sword Tower. How could Qi Qingsong and Nie You not know him
"What's wrong with Luo Yuan?"
Qi Qingsong was surprised.
"nothing."
Shen Dong laughed and immediately looked at Pang Jian, who was wearing black clothes and had a sword order hanging on his waist. He smiled politely and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are Pang Jian, right?"
Pang Jian nodded slightly.
"I have heard about your deeds. You are amazing. With your cultivation in the Profound Cavern Realm, you have actually killed several people in the Condensation Spirit Realm!"
Shen Dong praised generously.
Pang Jian responded perfunctorily with a few words, then looked at Ye Fei, who was eagerly waiting for news from Shen Dong.
…
The place where the demon ship crashed.
A spiritual boat from Tianshuize slowly floated over and took all the disciples of the Demon Sect into it.
Wu Yuan and Chen Lushi were invited upstairs by Tianshuize's people.
Inside the spacious house, Jiang Chao, the leader of Tianshuize's trip, was fiddling with the tea set and drinking by himself. Upon seeing the two men come in, he smiled brightly and quickly asked them to sit down together.
After the two of them sat down, he waved to signal the others to leave. His eyes stayed on Chen Lushi's face, and he asked with concern: "Why did the Molin ship get destroyed?"
Chen Lushi smiled sweetly, the beauty mole on the corner of her lips seemed to be charming, and she pursed her lips and said, "This trip was not going well, but luckily I met you. Thank you, Brother Jiang, for your help."
After she finished speaking, her eyes showed coldness, and she snorted, "Before you, there was also a sword boat passing by by chance. Not only did they not lend a hand to rescue us, they also humiliated us."
"Qi Qingsong doesn't even give you face?"
The handsome Jiang Chao slapped his head while speaking, and suddenly realized: "I almost forgot that Wu Yuan had defeated him in a duel that year. He should still mind this matter."
"Hey, this is too petty. How many years have passed?"
Jiang Chao deliberately instigated.
"Tell the mountain and water spirit boat to be careful and try not to get close to those white clouds."
Wu Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Why?"
"That's how the Demonic Ship was destroyed."
After a question and answer.
Jiang Chao put down his teacup and left, going out to make hasty arrangements and asking the person in charge of the direction to pay attention.
However…
"That cloud!"
On the deck of the Shanshui Lingzhou, strange cries of the Demon Sect disciples suddenly came.
Wu Yuan and Chen Lushi looked at each other.
Without waiting for Jiang Chao to come back, the two of them opened the window and flew to the outside of the Shanshui Lingzhou. Wu Yuan simply climbed onto the mast.
A cluster of white clouds covering dozens of acres was very close to the Mountain and Water Spirit Boat. Due to Jiang Chao's instructions, the Mountain and Water Spirit Boat, which was supposed to float above the white clouds, just stopped.
But just when the Shanshui Lingzhou was about to turn, the cluster of white clouds moved strangely and quickly approached the hull.
"It's that beast again!"
"Damn it! It's not over yet, is it?"
The people of the Demon Sect cursed loudly.
The people in Tianshuize were in a panic.
Seeing the white clouds approaching, Wu Yuan snorted, and a fluttering dark blue flag flew out from between his eyebrows.
The flag suddenly enlarged a thousand times!
There were three terrifying figures inside with the same color as the flags, like evil spirits and demons imprisoned in the flags, and they suddenly pounced towards the white clouds along with the flags.
“Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!”
Three terrifying demonic shadows, surrounded by demonic light and fire, rushed out and sank into the depths of the white clouds.
"Demon Sealing Flag!"
"The sacred weapon of the Heavenly Demon Sect!"
The people in Tianshuize shouted in surprise.
"Last time we were caught off guard, so we were ambushed. This time, that won't happen."
Chen Lushi said with a cold face.
She was quite confident in the Demon-Sealing Flag that Wu Yuan had sacrificed. When she saw the three terrifying demon shadows entering the white clouds, she knew that this mountain and water spirit boat could not be broken into pieces.
“Swish!”
In the depths of that cluster of white clouds, endless silver-white lightning suddenly appeared and condensed into a wide vortex of lightning.
The three terrifying demon shadows that escaped into it were drastically shrunk by the lightning, and were forced to shrink into the Demon Sealing Flag.
A crane cry suddenly sounded.
The strange beast, which had intended to launch a sneak attack and destroy the Shanshui Lingzhou, seemed to realize that it was impossible, so it wrapped itself in white clouds and floated away into the distance, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Wu Yuan on the mast turned pale. He put the Demon-Sealing Flag into his sea of consciousness and continued to nurture it with his spiritual sense.
"Crane's cry..."
Lu Xiangyi, who was an inner disciple of Tianshuize, hurriedly found Jiang Chao and said, "Brother Jiang, we encountered a vicious white crane during the trial in the Yunlei Forbidden Land. I told you about it."
"I suspect that the white crane of unknown origin is not dead, it is hiding in the white clouds!"
Having suffered a great loss, she would shudder every time she thought of the white crane who used foul language and slaughtered most of the disciples of the Demon Sect, Black Valley, and Tianshuize.
She thought that the white crane that escaped from the bottom of the lake had been killed by Jian Lou Luo Yuan after being seriously injured and dying.
Now, hearing the familiar crane cry again, she immediately felt that the white crane was not dead, but was hiding outside the forbidden area of Juetian and plotting to murder everyone.
Jiang Chao's face was solemn, and he said, "There is a clan called Thunder Crane in the Holy Spirit Continent, and they were once staunch followers of the Heavenly Phoenix. The Thunder Crane clan is most hostile to the Thunder Dragon clan of the Dragon Cave."
"Because of this, after the fall of the Sky Phoenix, the Thunder Cranes were the most severely suppressed by the Dragon Cave, and the surviving Thunder Cranes moved away from the Holy Spirit Continent one after another."
"But… "
Jiang Chao frowned and said, "We in Tianshuize have no hatred against the Leihe clan, so why is that white crane so vicious?"
Lu Xiangyi shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.
"Thunder Crane..."
Chen Lushi from the Demon Heart Sect hesitated for a moment and said, "If the Leihe clan was once under the command of Tianfeng, our Demon Sect does have a grudge against Leihe. As far as I know, our Demon Sect was also one of the participants in the death of that Lord Tianfeng."
…
A thick "strange fog" suddenly appeared.
"arrive."
Qi Qingsong looked solemn, signaling everyone to be careful, and said softly: "This is an area that has been explored and is considered safe by the higher-ups."
"However, after the purgatory world was opened, no one knew what happened inside."
"So before going in, everyone cast out protective shields and guarded their own sea of consciousness."
"Remember, this forbidden area shrouded in strange fog can only be entered by cultivators in the lower five realms."
“If you have the ability to break through the realm in the forbidden area, it seems possible.”
"… "
After Qi Qingsong started speaking, Shen Dong from the Black Valley and others who were familiar with the situation in the Juetian Forbidden Land also started to warn everyone.
Pang Jian took a deep breath and looked at the "strange fog" that was so close to him, feeling a little excited.
He has always suspected that his mysteriously missing father disappeared into the depths of the "strange fog". Even the bronze plate worn around his neck has a connection with the "strange fog".
When he left his hometown Beiqi, he was in a coma and didn't know how the Tianling Pagoda broke out of the "strange fog".
Several years later, he was in the second realm of Purgatory, standing in front of another forbidden area shrouded in "strange fog".
He also knew that there were already quite a few god puppets, including ferocious beasts and evil spirits, that were roaming the forbidden area in large numbers.
"God puppet, mystery of strange fog, forbidden land..."
Pang Jian was secretly looking forward to it.
"Brother Qi, isn't it said that practitioners from all walks of life are full of fear of the strange fog? Why did the higher-ups allow so many people to enter it this time?"
Zhou Qingchen asked doubtfully.
"The closer the strange fog is to the boundary wall, the more dangerous and terrifying it is." Qi Qingsong explained, "The forbidden area called Juetian is similar to the Beiqi you explored before, but it is shrouded in strange fog."
"The Forbidden Land of Absolute Heaven is quite far from the boundary wall of Purgatory. Some people have gone deep into it before and returned safely."
"They are not exploring the strange fog or the boundary wall this time. They just need to cross a thin layer of strange fog and enter the forbidden land of the sky."
That’s all I have to say.
Qi Qingsong lowered his voice and said, "In our Purgatory World, there are actually some people who have figured out a little bit of the mystery and rules of the strange fog. Otherwise, why would Bagua City reappear on the top of the Tongtian Jie Pillar after being submerged by the strange fog?"
"The people in the third and fourth realms are too far away from the most powerful figures in the sects of Purgatory, and are not qualified to know too many secrets related to the strange fog."
"In a word."
"The great figures of the First Realm spent endless energy to explore the strange fog and paid an extremely painful price for it. They did gain something, more or less."
"… "
After a detailed description.
"Prepare!"
Qi Qingsong shouted loudly.
Everyone, including Pang Jian, cast their protective shields one by one and guarded their sea of consciousness silently.
“Whoosh!”
The sword boat then stabbed into the thick "strange fog".
The thick gray smoke instantly submerged the sword boat. Pang Jian felt anxiously and found that there was no strange force infecting the green shield.
but…
The smooth back of the bronze plate sticking to his skin suddenly became rough, and the four words "Gate of Purgatory" that had been hidden before reappeared instantly because he entered the "strange fog".
Pang Jian tried again to communicate with Yunze Xiaoshu, Xuangui, and Fanguzi in the "strange fog".
Perception cannot be established!
In the forbidden land of spiritual prayer, he could resonate with those strange objects and borrow the power of the black tortoise and the small tree, but it was impossible in the "strange fog".
The "Gate of Purgatory" was hanging around his neck, but as the sword boat whistled, he felt that he was getting farther and farther away from the world of Purgatory.
"Black tortoise shell..."
"Leaf of Life..."
He tried again to activate the two magical objects in his heart.
The talent of the Black Turtle Armor can still be used, and those leaves of life can still provide life energy, but because it cannot establish perception with the small tree, the life energy is no longer inexhaustible.
This means that once he enters the "strange fog", his combat power is weakened and he cannot seek support from the turtle or the small tree.
"There is no terrifying alien force infecting the body."
"Except for the inability to extend my perception and the lack of any power, it's like traveling through a vast sea of fog."
"It seems that there is no need to continue to keep the barrier forever."
"… "
The disciples of Jianlou and Heigu gradually relaxed their vigilance, and some began to remove their protective shields.
Then, these people began to die one after another, as if their souls were invaded by evil spirits!
The death was inexplicable and extremely abrupt.
…
