Chronicles of Celestial Origins

More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. In front of the huge light curtain, two escaping lights shot out, and two men appeared.

It was Tang Ning and Wu Xuan, captain of the eighth team directly under his command, who had come all the way.

Not long after the two of them waited, a corner of the light curtain melted away, and a figure flashed out from inside, welcoming the two of them into the inner room.

In the spacious and bright hall, a man with big face and pale temples walked in. He was Guan Pingchao, the captain of the third brigade.

The two quickly stood up and saluted.

"Sit down!" Guan Pingchao waved his hand.

"Thank you, Master Uncle." The two of them took their seats as instructed, and Tang Ning said, "Uncle Guan, the two of us are here this time on orders from Master Huang Yuan of our headquarters to complete the investigation within your jurisdiction within three months. There are secret realms, so I came here to disturb you. I wonder how many secret realms there are within the jurisdiction of the third brigade? "

"There is only one secret place within the jurisdiction of our headquarters. It is located in Xixian Pavilion, where Guanghua Sect is stationed. I will send someone to take you there later. Come here." Guan Pingchao called out.

A man pushed the door open and came in, bowing and saluting: "Uncle, what are your orders?"

"Go and invite deputy captain Yang Ziyi."

"Yes." The man responded and left.

After about an hour of burning incense, a tall and tall middle-aged man was seen walking out. His eyes passed over the two of them and he saluted Guan Pingchao: "Uncle Guan, are you looking for me?"

"These two disciples are directly affiliated with the brigade. Tang Ning, the captain of the seventh squad, and Wu Xuan, the captain of the eighth squad, are here to inspect the secret realm under the jurisdiction of our headquarters this time on orders from the alliance. You lead them to Guanghua Sect and fight there. Say hello and let them unlock the secret passage seal."

"good."

"Uncle Guan, let's take our leave now." Tang Ning and Wu Xuan stood up and spoke.

Guan Pingchao nodded, and the three of them left the cave, exchanged greetings for a few words, and then fled the light and left the mountain.

………

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse. In the majestic and majestic cave of Hunyuan Sect, a woman wearing Hunyuan Sect costumes leads the monks in black robes and bamboo hats behind her to a stone room and opens the door.

Sitting inside was a burly middle-aged man with slightly white temples and bright eyes.

"Headmaster, we're here." The woman bowed and saluted.

The man nodded slightly, the woman quietly exited, and the thick stone door closed with a bang.

In the room, the monk opened his bamboo hat, revealing the face of a man with regular features. He stepped forward and bowed his head and said, "Jiang Yang, the junior, pays homage to the senior."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please sit down!"

Jiang Yang followed the instructions, took out a piece of letter, and handed it to the man with both hands: "This is the letter that the young master of the house asked this junior to bring to you."

The man took the letter, but did not open it. He placed it gently on the desk: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, just tell me! What do you need? What can we get from this sect?"

Jiang Yang said: "We have tens of thousands of troops stationed in Beihai County. If there is an uprising here, the rebels from Linzi County may attack. We hope to get help from your sect. As for the reward, the young master said in the letter I have already explained it in detail. Time is tight, so I won’t go into details one by one.”

The man's face was expressionless: "What if you fail? What can our sect gain?"

"Senior, please explain clearly what you mean."

"Don't just paint cakes on paper, I want to see real benefits. If you are sincere, show your sincerity."

"I understand the attitude of senior. Please let me report this matter to the young master of the family before I can reply. I will not disturb your purity, so I will leave now."

"Please."

The man got up, put on his bamboo hat and went out.

………

Xixian Pavilion, Guanghua Sect, in front of the majestic meeting hall, a ray of light fell, revealing the figure of an old man with pale beard and hair.

"Fellow Daoist Peng, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?" In the hall, Yang Ziyi stood up and bowed his head.

"Fellow Taoist Yang is here. It would be disrespectful to greet you from afar, and disrespectful." The old man surnamed Peng returned the greeting with a smile, and glanced at the two people behind him: "I wonder who these two Taoist friends are?"

"Let me introduce, these two are Tang Ning and Junior Brother Wu Xuan, the two captains of the brigade directly under the headquarters. This is Taoist Fellow Peng Yu, the headmaster of the Guanghua Sect."

A few people exchanged greetings with each other, and then the guests and hosts took their seats.

"Several Taoist friends have come from afar, I think they must have something important to do! I don't know why?"

Tang Ning said: "That's it, Fellow Daoist Peng, we are ordered by our regiment to explore the secret realm of your sect. What is the situation inside now?"

Peng Yu said: "Our sect opened the secret realm more than 20 years ago and sent people to investigate. At that time, there were some demons in the pill-forming realm in the secret realm. The specific information is stored in our sect. I will let you know later. Give it to two fellow Taoists."

Yang Ziyi said: "Fellow Daoist Peng, we are here this time to investigate in person. Can your sect release the secret realm and let them in?"

"That's no problem, but it will take a few days to prepare. Let's do this! In three days, our sect will gather manpower to open the sealed passage in the secret realm. What do you think of these fellow Taoists?"

"Okay, just follow Master Peng's wishes."

"Fellow Taoists, please take a break at our sect for the next three days."

A few people chatted for a while, and then Peng Yu invited them to a banquet. At the banquet, everyone chatted about the north and the south, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

…

At night, Tang Ning returned to the accommodation prepared by the Guanghua Sect. Within half an hour, someone sent another file of information about this secret place, which was all information obtained by the Guanghua Sect's previous detection.

Tang Ning opened the file and read through it one by one, gaining a rough understanding of the details of the secret realm here.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye. Around noon that day, a disciple of the Guanghua Sect knocked on the door of his room: "Senior Tang, the master invites you to come to the meeting hall."

"Okay." Tangning responded, her light rising, and soon she arrived at the meeting hall. Inside, Yang Ziyi and Wu Xuan were already seated. In addition to Guanghua Sect's headmaster Peng Yu, there were also several senior officials of Guanghua Sect sitting below.

After greeting each other one by one, several people left the meeting hall together and came to a barren mountain northwest of the mountain gate. At that time, martial law was enforced in a radius of ten miles, and many Guanghua Sect disciples were guarding the side.

In the center of the formation at the foot of the mountain, there are huge boulders standing there, and light is flowing. Some Guanghua Sect disciples are standing at the foot of the formation, controlling the formation.

Several people disappeared from the light, and a man quickly came forward to salute: "Greetings to the master."

Peng Yu nodded slightly: "How is it? Are you ready?"

"The formation can be activated at any time."

"Then let's get started!" Peng Yu waved his hand, and the figures of the men and women behind him immediately flashed and settled down according to the formation position. They formed seals in their hands. In an instant, the sky and the earth suddenly darkened, a strong wind suddenly rose, and black clouds surged. ,Thunder and lightning.

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

The spiritual power of the Guanghua Sect members continued to pour into it, and the stone pillars became brighter and brighter. After about an hour, a small hole was torn apart where the lights met in mid-air. As time went by, the hole became more and more torn. As it gets bigger, a black hole appears, and something seems to be surging inside, causing the black hole to change in height and become very unstable.

It wasn't until the torn black hole expanded to a size of three feet that it returned to stability.

Peng Yu said: "Fellow Daoist Tang, Fellow Daoist Wu, the sealed passage in the secret realm has been opened. You can enter. We will open the passage again in a month."

Yang Ziyi said: "Junior Brother Tang, Junior Brother Wu, you can go with peace of mind! I will guard you until you return to avoid any trouble during the period."

"Okay." The two looked at each other, nodded, and then flashed into the black hole.

Tang Ning followed Wu Xuan closely, and the two of them almost entered the black hole with both feet. A moment ago, he could still see his figure, but in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared.

There was darkness in front of him, without any light or color. In the blink of an eye, he had appeared in another space. He looked around at a desolate place, with red peaks everywhere, spewing hot molten flames.

Tang Ning looked around. The escaping light rose into the air and looked down. Wherever she looked, there were red and bare mountain peaks.

He turned over his hand and took out a topographic atlas, unfolded it and looked at it carefully for a while, and roughly determined his location. It should be in the southeast of this space. This place is an active volcanic mountain range with a radius of several hundred miles.

According to the information collected by the Guanghua Sect, this mountain range is occupied by a monster called the Fire Rock Lizard. This monster looks like a lizard, has two heads and six eyes, a red body, long pointed ears, and likes to eat fire. It is a second-level mid-level monster. , the strength is comparable to that of the human race in the middle stage of foundation building.

The secret space here is about ten to twenty thousand miles in diameter. According to the Guanghua Sect's detection more than 20 years ago, the most powerful monster in the secret realm is only the third-level mid-level monster.

Tang Ning put away the topographical atlas, raised her consciousness far away, and slowly flew towards the southwest.

This is the second time in his life that he has entered a secret realm to face monsters from another world. The first time was when he was in Qianyi Sect, which dates back hundreds of years.

The secret realm in the back mountain of Qianyi Sect is only more than a thousand miles in size, and the total area is less than one-tenth of this secret realm.

This can be seen from the level of the sealing formation in the secret realm passage. The secret realm sealed by the Qianyi Sect can be opened by five Jindan monks.

The secret realm of Guanghua Sect requires more than a dozen Jindan monks and four Nascent Soul monks to open it.

The larger the secret realm is, the more unstable the connected space channel will be, which naturally requires a more powerful sealing formation.

Tang Ning walked slowly, not in a hurry to find Wu Xuan's whereabouts. Although the two of them set off from the same place, due to the fluctuations in the space passage, there will be a certain deviation in the landing point after traveling through space. The difference may be hundreds or even thousands of miles. far away.

With their cultivation levels, they were naturally not afraid of the monsters in the secret realm and would not encounter any danger, so Tang Ning was not in a hurry to meet up with them.

Not long after walking, his mind suddenly moved, and he came to the top of a volcano crater.

Suddenly, several surrounding peaks spewed out bloody flames at the same time, rushing toward him overwhelmingly.

Many tiny threads that were invisible to the naked eye shot out from the molten flames, and the many threads intertwined together to form a huge net, covering his figure.

In the sky full of molten flames, a blurry figure was seen quickly moving away.
