Xianlu Spring and Autumn

Ye Bai stepped out slowly and fell towards the bottom of the valley below.

The peach-red layer of miasma is about a dozen feet thick, and after passing through the layer of miasma, the evil spirit of death comes head-on.

Ye Bai's head was suddenly blurred and dizzy, and then a certain idea of ​​wanting to kill crazily came up in his heart, and he quickly guarded the altar to keep his sanity, and when he looked up, he was horrified.

The invisible and colorless evil spirit of death has formed a faint gray mist here. If it was not located in a deep valley and covered by the pink miasma above, the monks might have discovered it long ago.

The sound of fighting came from a distance diagonally below.

Ye Bai restrained his breath, leaned against the mountain wall, and fell slowly.

The world at the bottom of the valley is completely different from the miasma-filled desolation outside. The mountain walls are covered with long and thick vines.

These vines are criss-crossed and knotted together, each one is as thick as a human arm, as if it has been soaked in the evil spirit for too long, and its appearance is also abnormally hideous, full of long, thin and sharp thorns, and the leaves can't be seen to a slice.

When Ye Bai fell, these vines seemed to be able to detect the powerful aura in his body, and fled to other directions like a frightened big snake.

It was about a hundred feet deep before reaching the bottom of the valley. The bottom of the valley was unusually quiet and the light was extremely dim. Ye Bai spread out his spiritual sense to explore the way, and plundered towards the place where the sound of fighting came from.

The terrain at the bottom of the valley is undulating like waves. Apart from the vines, there are also clusters of [-] to [-] feet tall trees without leaves, and also full of spiky trees. These big trees stand bare on the undulating ground. , like a mace in general.

Ye Bai stepped on the void and walked among the big trees.

Not long after, two figures one after another appeared in Ye Bai's vision of consciousness.

One is a young Taoist in colorful clothes, with slanted eyebrows and eyes.His face was long and narrow, his appearance was a bit evil, his expression was frivolous, and there was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

In his right hand, he held a large black banner with a faint green glow on the banner.During the dancing, gusts of wind can be stirred up, and strange smoke is permeated in the wind. The smoke seems to be highly poisonous, and the vines and big trees full of needles will die immediately when touched, and melt into black water.

The other person was a short, fat, middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, and he unleashed two swords that shone with red light.Attacking the opponent, the two swords flew back and forth at an extremely fast speed, which seemed to be like a wave of attack, but in fact it was completely blocked by the big banner of Taoist Caiyi, which had no effect at all, and consumed a lot of mana out of thin air.

The short and fat man's face was covered with cold sweat, and his attack was ineffective.The opponent's highly poisonous smoke was eroding his protective gas shield bit by bit.

I don't know how long the two have been fighting.The short and fat man was in a precarious situation. He tried to escape several times, but was stopped by Taoist Caiyi.

The realm of the two is only in the late stage of foundation establishment. Ye Bai realized their strength and knew that they could never be the patriarch's minions.Most of them are nearby monks who came here by chance.

Ye Bai's consciousness was like lightning, and soon he found two baby fist-sized Heisha stones on the ground near the two, with strong evil spirits, presumably the edge of the Heisha mine was ahead.

"Eldest brother. Little brother surrendered. I don't want a single piece of the Heisha stone inside. It's all yours. I just ask you to let me live!"

The short and fat man was a fire-type monk, and the fiery red protective aura released from his body had already dimmed to the extreme.

"Junior Brother Wang, your kindness is for my brother's heart. Since you want to fulfill me, it is better for a good person to do it to the end. I am afraid that the black evil stone inside will not be taken away once. If the news is leaked, I am afraid it will not be the next time." It's my turn, why don't you sleep here forever and help me protect it!"

Taoist Caiyi let out a laugh, his eyes flickered coldly, and he spoke in a high-pitched voice, with an air of posturing.

His speaking speed was extremely slow, but the offensive under his hands became faster and faster, and the poisonous smoke almost condensed into smoke arrows, shooting at the short and fat man.

"Eldest brother, don't forget, the two of us left the sect together half a month ago, and my soul lamp is still in the sect. If I die here today, the sect will immediately notice and track you down." head!"

The short and fat man roared sharply, obviously his mind had begun to collapse.

Taoist Caiyi's complexion sank slightly, and then he said decisively: "So what, with these black evil stones, I can sell a lot of spirit stones. At that time, top-grade magic weapons and high-level exercises are easily available, so why stay here In the little Purple Wood School?"

After finishing the words, the look in this person's eyes gradually became excited and frenzied, and he smiled grinningly.

Ye Bai stood quietly watching from a distance, and finally heard the ins and outs. Ganqing is another brother of the sect. In order to fight for the treasure, he turned his face into an enemy. He was thinking about whether to save the life of the short and fat man. Become prominent!

Seeing that the opponent was determined to kill him, the short and fat man finally put aside his thoughts of begging for mercy, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and rushed towards the opponent without saying a word.

At the same time, a violent countercurrent of spiritual energy was released centering on his body.

"The primordial spirit blew himself up?"

Taoist Caiyi reacted very quickly, he noticed the abnormality in an instant, his face changed drastically, and he turned his head and fled backwards with a swish.

boom!

The sound of the explosion sounded, and the air blasted in all directions in the center of the battlefield!

The body of the chunky man was gone.

Taoist Caiyi spewed out a big mouthful of blood, and threw it forward heavily.

After a while, the man took a breath and stood up staggeringly. After taking out a few pills and swallowing them, Taoist Caiyi looked at the blood mist in the air nearby and snorted angrily, his eyes were extremely gloomy.

After recovering briefly, Taoist Caiyi immediately rushed to the front, picked up the two black evil stones, and after a few careful glances, ecstasy appeared in his eyes.

"That's right, it must be the Heisha Stone for refining defense-breaking weapons, and there must be more ahead."

Taoist Caiyi laughed loudly, and flew forward regardless of his injuries.

Ye Bai's face was stern, and he followed behind him without haste.

The terrain gradually narrowed, and the mountains on both sides gathered in the middle, as if entering an underground cave, with only a narrow gap above the head.

After another half a cup of tea, the surroundings were already completely dark, except for the excited and chaotic footsteps of Taoist Caiyi, there was no other sound.

Arriving here, the evil spirit became more intense.

Taoist Caiyi took out a piece of flint and illuminated the surroundings. The surrounding mountain walls had become strange and jagged stone walls, but most of them were ordinary mountain rocks.

Taoist Caiyi held flints and searched carefully in the cave. After a while, he found two more pieces, which were much larger than the previous two pieces. He was so happy that he was in full bloom.

A hundred feet away, Ye Bai's face gradually tightened, and a cautious look appeared in his eyes.

His spiritual sense was much stronger than Taoist Caiyi's, and he suddenly saw a piece of black stone mixed with ordinary rocks exposed on the ground in the darkness hundreds of feet in front of Taoist Caiyi.However, beside the Heisha Stone, there were still more than a dozen figures lurking, like ghosts, looking coldly at Taoist Caiyi's direction.

These figures look like human beings, but their eyes show a strange cold gray color. There is no human-like emotion in the pupils, only the extremely strong and boundless killing intent. It seems that the purpose of existence is to tear up everything that comes close Living thing.

These figures, lurking in the strong evil spirit, seem to be integrated into one body, without distinction from each other. Unless you see their bodies, it is extremely difficult to detect.

"These monks should have come here by accident in the past, and their spiritual intelligence was destroyed by the evil spirit, and they became puppets like walking corpses."

Ye Bai's thoughts turned, most of these monks were not very strong in front of them, and the highest ones were in the late Jindan stage, but it gave him a strange and dangerous feeling.

"But it seems that these guys are all monks without self-awareness. Could it be that Patriarch Brilliant has other clever means to control these things for his use?"

Ye Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.

Taoist Caiyi didn't realize that the danger was approaching, and with a smile on his face, he walked forward step by step.

Suddenly, a mutation occurs!

More than a dozen evil puppets jumped up at the same time, shot out lightning, and shot at the Taoist in Caiyi at the same time.

Taoist Caiyi hardly had any defenses. In an instant, he was sprayed with blood and fell to the ground. Looking at the strange monks surrounding him, this person's eyes were full of horror.

"who are you?"

Silence!

Among them, the one in the later stage of Jindan was a tall middle-aged man. Without saying a word, this person knocked Caiyi Taoist unconscious with a random finger.

The middle-aged man then picked up the colorful-clothed Taoist priest, and a dozen or so figures quickly fled towards the depths of the ground together.

Ye Bai's eyes that were watching from a distance suddenly opened.

"Something's wrong... These dead puppets didn't kill him, they just took him away. Unlike unconscious creatures who only know how to kill, is there still someone manipulating them?"

Ye Bai's scalp felt slightly numb, and felt for the first time that this trip to Shagu was not as simple as he imagined. (To be continued..)
