Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The next day, the group boarded the Tianling Ship and left the Qiyuan Mountains. Their first stop was Sanqing Mountain outside the city.

"This place was originally stationed by the Qingyuan Sect. After the Qingzhou War, the Qingyuan Sect was removed from the list and was taken over by another C-level Xuanmen Yiyuan Sect. Therefore, the place is connected to a secret realm, so the sect dispatched the Yiyuan Sect generals The mountain gate has also been moved here," Wu Quan introduced on the deck of the Tianling Ship.

Not long after everyone was waiting outside the mountain gate, an old man with pale sideburns led several men and women to greet them quickly. He bowed his head and said, "Junior Yu Zhengqian has met all the seniors."

Wu Quan introduced: "Master Yu, these are fellow Taoists sent by the coalition forces to help our city clear the secret realm. This is Fellow Taoist Zhu Zhen, captain of the tenth column of the Tenth Army. Fellow Daoist Zhu, this is Master Yu Zheng of the Yiyuan Sect. Be a Taoist friend.”

"Master Yu, this department has been ordered to assist your sect in eradicating the monsters in the secret realm. Please lead the way!"

"Seniors, please." The group entered the mountain gate and sat down in the hall.

"Our sect looks forward to the arrival of seniors, just like a severe drought looks forward to the rain. If you have any instructions from your seniors, just ask, and our sect will do our best." Yu Zhengqian sat down and said.

Zhu Zhen asked: "Fellow Taoist, when was the last time your lord visited the secret realm?"

"The most recent time was on August 12 last year. After our sect received the order from Taixuanzong to explore the secret realm, we immediately organized manpower to go inside to investigate."

"August 12th, that is to say, your sect has not entered the secret realm for more than half a year."

"Yes, because the secret passage was opened last time, many groups of elite personnel were sent in to investigate, but unexpectedly many of them died inside. Our sect is very weak, so we dare not send people in to investigate again."

"What's the situation in the secret realm now? How many monsters have you discovered?"

Yu Zhengqian said: "According to the surviving disciples, they found many castle-like buildings in the secret realm. Each castle is filled with a large number of monsters. The specific number is unknown. There is a half-red and half-black cloud surrounding the castle. I don't know what it is. How it was formed. In addition, many monsters were found patrolling near the castle, and they seemed to regard the secret realm as their home."

"The famous junior brother Zhang Zi of our sect also cultivated the spirit form. He led his team into the secret realm, but unfortunately he was killed. It can be seen that there are at least spirit-formation level monsters in the secret realm."

Tangning asked, "Has any formation similar to this been found in the secret realm?"

"The surviving disciples did not report this matter. This junior thinks that even if there is a formation, it must be built in the castle. How can the disciples of our sect dare to break into the inner room with their low cultivation level?"

"How many people did you send in, and how many people survived?"

"Our sect sent a total of fifty disciples inside, but only thirteen disciples survived."

"When were these castles built? Did you find any castles during your previous inspection?"

"Our sect's mountain gate was not here originally. It was moved here later. The previous exploration of the secret realm was completed by the Qingfeng sect, and this junior did not know about it."

Everyone asked about the situation in the secret realm, and Zhu Zhen said: "Fellow Taoist Yu, please prepare yourself, fellow Taoist from your sect. We will enter the secret realm tomorrow, no problem!"

"I dare to ask, senior, if we need our sect to summon all the disciples to go in and eliminate the monsters."

"We won't use it for the time being. Too many people will get in the way and make things difficult. Let a few of us go in and survey first, and then make measurements."

"Yes." Yu Zhengqian responded.

…

Several people returned to the Tianling Ship to rest for the night. The next day, Yu Zhengqian took everyone to a towering peak in the northwest of the mountain range. There were huge boulders standing on it, flags were placed on it, the formation was vast, and the disciples of the Yiyuan Sect had occupied various formations.

After a few people were out of sight, a man came forward and said, "I've met all of you, seniors."

"Junior Brother Cao, are you ready?" Yu Zhengqian asked.

"The formation can be activated at any time."

"Senior Zhu, do you have any other instructions?"

"This formation requires the strength of several people to break the seal."

"It requires the combined efforts of three Divine Transformation monks and thirty Nascent Soul monks."

"After I enter, I will return from time to time. You need to open the formation seal at noon every day and wait."

Yu Zhengqian had a troubled look on his face: "Our sect is very weak, with only five god-transformation monks. Opening the seal of this formation consumes a lot of spiritual power..."

Zhu Zhen interrupted him with a wave of her hand, "There are thirty remaining Huashen monks here in our headquarters. Let them take over and take turns to contribute."

"In that case, there is no problem."

Zhu Zhen immediately sent someone to call all the coalition forces and gave them instructions.

After everything was ready, everyone in the Yiyuan Sect settled down according to the formation position and formed seals in their hands. In an instant, the sky was dark, the earth was dark, sand was flying, rocks were flying, and the wind was surging.

Symbols appeared on many stone pillars, and rays of light rose into the sky, converging at one point.

The spiritual power of the Yiyuan Sect people continued to pour into it. After about a full hour, a hole was torn in the air where the rays of light met.

As time went by, the hole became larger and larger, and a huge rotating black hole appeared.

"Everyone, let's go!" After Zhu Zhen finished speaking, several people flashed through the rotating black hole.

Tangning followed him into the rotating black hole. For a moment, he felt dizzy. An extremely powerful force was pushing him forward. A dark corridor flashed past him like a horse. The next moment, A strong and dazzling light surged closer, and when his eyes returned to clarity, he had appeared in another space.

Looking around, everything is desolate, like a lifeless restricted area.

Zhu Zhen and others have disappeared. Due to the fluctuation of the space channel, the footholds of several people are not consistent, and there will be errors of hundreds or even thousands of miles. This is a normal situation. He has entered the secret realm several times and has long been accustomed to it.

At the moment, he looked around, turned his hand, took out a topographic atlas, and then headed to the southwest.

Not long after, he noticed a ray of divine consciousness sweeping across his body. He searched for the source of the divine consciousness and soon saw a ray of light coming towards him.

The two sides met head-on. The person who came was none other than Wu Quan, who had entered the secret realm with him.

The two chatted for a few words, and then headed southwest together, arriving at a square mountain.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, Fellow Daoist Wu, you are here." On the top of the mountain, Zhu Zhen and others were waiting here. They had already become familiar with the terrain before setting off and agreed on a meeting place.

Tang Ning glanced over and saw that all seven people were gathered together, so she said, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, everyone is here now. What are your plans?"

"We still don't know the strength of the monsters in this space. For the sake of safety, I hope that we can act together so that we can take care of each other. First, we will go to the castles where monsters gather in the Yiyuan Sect. I don't know what you guys think. How about next?”

Several people had no objections and nodded in agreement.

Zhu Zhen took out the topographical atlas from the last visit to the Yiyuan Sect and pointed to several castles. After formulating the corresponding plan, Tang Ning volunteered: "Now I only know that the monsters are hidden in the castles, but I don't know the specific conditions inside. There are so many of us." It's easy to scare someone away. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, so it's not convenient for us to do it. Tang Mou has learned a secret method and is willing to be a pioneer to explore the situation. "

The reason why he did this was of course to facilitate the collection of magic crystals. Zhu Zhen did not doubt that he was there and nodded happily: "Fellow Taoist Tang is willing to go and collect information first. That would be great."

The two discussed the specific details of the action for a while, and then Tangning took off. After walking for less than an hour, his mind suddenly moved and he turned south. Soon, he saw several monsters walking leisurely. Flying to the left.

There were about ten monsters in that group, all with horse bodies and bird wings, human faces and snake tails.

The aura around the leader of the monster is not weaker than that of the human Nascent Soul cultivator. It stands out among a group of monsters. Its bird wings are somewhat similar to human hands, and the snake's tail gradually resembles human legs.

The aura of the group of monsters following behind him was not weaker than that of the humanoid golden elixir monks.

It seemed that this was the patrol the Yiyuan Sect was talking about. Tangning did not rush to take action, but followed behind them.

He had entered different secret realms twice before, and the monsters he saw were all very lazy and doing their own thing. This was the first time he saw such an organized patrol, so he was curious and followed behind him quietly.

This group of monsters traveled about a thousand miles, then suddenly changed direction, and after walking for a while, they came to a valley.

There are several round tomb-shaped buildings inside. In one of the larger round tombs, several monsters with horse bodies, bird wings, and human faces and snake tails gathered together.

The leader has shed his beast body. His whole body is as black as ink. His facial features are the same as those of humans. Only his mouth still retains the shape of a bird. The strength of his aura is about that of humans in the early stages of becoming gods. He is sitting on a strange-shaped stone table above the stone steps. superior.

Just hearing a burst of croaking words from the head of the monster, several monsters below bowed their heads to listen, including the leader of the group of monsters he was following.

Tang Ning lurked nearby and listened to their chatter for a while, not understanding what they were talking about. She saw several monsters lying below getting up and about to leave.

He didn't have the patience to continue fighting these low-level monsters. He flashed and came behind the leader monster. Before it could react, he punched its head to pieces.

Several other monsters were shocked and screamed. Tang Ning struck out with a palm, and the huge Xuantian palm pressed down in the air. Several monsters had no resistance and were smashed into pieces by the palm.

Such a big movement naturally caused other monsters to flee in panic. Seeing many monsters fleeing in all directions, light surged out of his body and turned into stars as big as bulls. The golden light spread and enveloped an area of ​​more than ten miles. Many monsters were covered by it. The original body was frozen, and under the squeeze of the golden space, the flesh and blood disintegrated one after another.

All this happened in an instant. Dozens of monsters were wiped out by him in the blink of an eye, leaving no one alive.

This should be a stronghold of the Monster Patrol, responsible for patrolling the south of the castle.

All the monsters here have horse bodies, bird wings, human faces and snake tails. They are undoubtedly a branch of the demon world.
