I will survive with proficiency

After crossing the virtual bridge, the road is unimpeded, and the peak that has been looked at for more than ten years is close at hand.

The color of the virtual bridge behind is gradually fading as time goes by.

But Chen Ping didn't care anymore. It seemed that the bridge could last for a few more days. At this moment, all the monks had already crossed the bridge. If the remaining monks scattered in the forest saw the vision in the sky, they should know to rush this way.

The peak was quickly conquered.

These routes and the passage out of the ink-chasing field had already been learned during the process of questioning the demon captives, so everyone quickly arrived at the passage.

Yinyue was the first to enter the passage without any hesitation.

Chen Ping followed closely behind.

After a burst of dizziness, Chen Ping appeared in a forest, and he checked his body immediately.

came back.

All came back.

All Jindan cultivation bases have returned.

In the distance, Yinyue stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes slightly closed, breathing the long-lost air here.

"Senior Yinyue, where is this?" Chen Ping fell beside Yinyue, not completely relieved.

"Savage."

Just two words came.

Savage?

It finally came out.

Not only Chen Ping, but also many monks who were teleported one after another behind him wept with joy.

Eleven years.

Finally came out alive again.

"I was able to come out this time because of the blessing of Zhenjun Yinyue. I am the head of the Jiyang Sect. If there is something that Zhenjun can use in the future, Zhenjun will give me an order, and I will die." One person Come by and say thanks.

The other monks followed suit.

Yinyue glanced at everyone, and said something that surprised everyone:

"What's the use of just saying thank you?"

"Everyone should show some sincerity."

Everyone:? ? ?

For a moment I thought I had heard wrong.

This is obviously an opening to thank.

But

It always feels wrong, usually when you become a hero, when someone says thank you, shouldn't you say 'where, where'? Why did you even ask for a thank you gift?

"Hehe, that's, that's. These are the only one thousand top-grade spirit stones that I have, all of which are given to Zhenjun Yinyue, please accept it." A person with better eyesight took the lead.

With the demonstration effect of this eye bag, other people are also willing (buganxin) to offer their thanks.

"This is my jade pendant. It's not a peerless treasure, but it's worth more than 800 top-grade spirit stones. Please don't dislike it, Zhenjun."

"This is more than 1,300 high-grade spirit stones, a small gift is not a respect."

"."

Yinyue accepted them one by one with a smile, and never refused to come.

Next is the return journey.

The elders of several big sects all brought spaceships, so dozens of people returned in three spaceships.

Chen Ping followed Yinyue and their spaceship.

On the uppermost floor of the spaceship, when there were only Yinyue, Chen Ping, and Bailiye brothers and sisters left, Yinyue threw a storage bag to Chen Ping.

Chen Ping was taken aback.

This storage bag is the storage bag that Yinyue used to store everyone's thanks just now.

"Give it all to me?" Chen Ping was taken aback.

"Your credit, of course, is for you. I don't lack these." Yinyue said lightly.

Chen Ping looked at the storage bag in his hand, which still had the faint scent of Yinyue on it, he said "thank you", and took it away without any formality.

"How much did your master tell you about the current situation in Misty Continent?" Yinyue returned to the present.

"Which aspect is the senior referring to?"

"For example, the Misty Continent may be isolated. To be precise, even all continents will be isolated and form their own barriers. It may even be specific to a certain continent or a certain area."

Chen Ping was slightly shocked:

"Why?"

Bailiye and Baili Xianling also cheered up.

In Yinyue's next explanation, Chen Ping knew that this was a means for the upper-level senior monks to find the passage to the demon world.

Once separated, the demons will not be able to move between continents. There will be more and more demons in the continents with passages, and the opposite will happen in the continents without passages. Over time, it will be easy to check which continent, or even which continent has a passage from the demon world to the human world.

This is very helpless.

But the trend seems irreversible.

"If the situation gets worse in the future, Fellow Daoist Chen can come to Luanluo City, and there will always be a place for fellow Daoist in Luanluo City." Yinyue threw out an olive branch.

Thank you Chen Ping.

But he still can't think about the future. Back then, he couldn't wait to see his wife.

Eleven years have passed, and I don't know how Ling Xiaozong is doing now.

I don't know how Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan are doing.

"."

After more than ten days, the spaceship entered the Western Wilderness. When he saw that some sects that he knew before were now overgrown with grass, Chen Ping felt a little bit in his heart.

Ling Xiaozong is close at hand, so what will happen?

After entering the Western Wilderness, you can see that there are much fewer active Xiuxian City than before, and there are also much fewer active monks than before.

The sense of desolation is stronger.

When the spaceship docked above Ling Xiaozong, Chen Ping's heart sank.

below.

The temples are in ruins, the Xiuxian City is lifeless, and the dojo is empty.

In a daze, Chen Ping seemed to see the moment when Ling Xiaozong fell many years ago.

"Do you want me to take you to Tianyanzong?" Yinyue said softly.

She said no other words of comfort, and there was no point in saying too much at this point.

"No, I'll go down and have a look. You guys go back." Chen Ping suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

Could it be that after he was forced to enter the Rising Sun Boundary, Chi Liang really attacked the small sect?

Isn't there no Nascent Soul cultivator from the human race to contain Chi Liang?

"Brother Chen" Baili Xianling hesitated to speak.

She originally wanted to invite Chen Ping to go to Luanluo City, but she thought that Chen Ping's Taoist companion was still in this sect, and knew that Chen Ping could not just leave like this, so she didn't say anything.

"Go back and practice hard. I'm still waiting for you to detoxify me one day?" Chen Pingqiang laughed.

Ignoring everyone, he jumped off the spaceship.

After landing on the platform outside the main hall of the main peak and watching the spaceship disappear towards the east, his attention was once again focused on the main hall of the sect.

Walking between these familiar stone roads and the main hall, there are many thoughts.

The place that was clean back then is now covered with dust and weeds, apparently abandoned for some years.

The main peak, which was full of aura back then, can't feel much aura now.

I don't know if the entire spiritual vein was destroyed, or what.

The objects in the hall are crumbling here and there, and some places are even very bright, obviously they have been patronized not long ago.

Um?

The more Chen Ping looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.

‘There is no trace of a fierce battle here! '

The main hall is still intact, and has not turned into ruins.

The other palaces are not bad either.

Could it be that the head of Sima retreated without a fight, chose to preserve the inheritance, and voluntarily quit here?

Thinking of this, Chen Ping withdrew from the main peak and quickly flew to Xiaozhu Peak.

Time has passed, and things have changed here.

Those rich spiritual plants have long since disappeared, and even the rare black prison hibiscus tree at the door has disappeared.

But the situation here is the same as on the main peak.

The temple was not extensively damaged.

Chen Ping quickly checked the formation again. It was discovered that the small sky protection formation above Xiaozhufeng was not destroyed, but completely dismantled, not even a single of those very hidden formations remained.

This formation was laid out by Chen Ping himself.

If someone can dismantle it intact, then apart from himself, there is only one person in the entire Ling Xiaozong who can do it.

That is Yun Haitang.

Did they retreat from here in an orderly manner?

Chen Ping hurriedly went to the quiet room again, and found that the entrance to the teleportation array had indeed been demolished.

This made him feel relieved.

This at least shows that Yun Haitang and the others are not running away in a hurry.

Instead, he left after making full preparations.

It proved that Yun Haitang and the others were still alive at that time.

Chen Ping walked out of the small bamboo peak, flew down, and stayed in the sky above Sanxiu City. After scanning with his consciousness, he found that there were still people in some houses.

He landed in the yard of a house.

The moment he landed, his consciousness sensed that the two people in the house quickly hid in the basement.

"It's me, Chen Ping, the lord of Xiaozhufeng." Chen Ping said flatly.

As soon as these words came out, there was still silence in the house. After waiting for a while, an old man and an old woman came out from the basement.

"Master Chen? Is it really you? Are you still alive?" The old man looked at Chen Ping, holding an evil-breaking talisman in his hand.

Chen Ping: .

"Don't be afraid, I'm not dead."

"What about the others? Why are you still here?"

After confirming that Chen Ping was really Chen Ping, the old man's chatterbox suddenly opened up.

turn out to be.

In the second year after Chen Ping fell into the Rising Sun Boundary Wall, the sequelae of the surrounding sects being swallowed up by the demons began to appear, causing chaos everywhere.

Jiexiu walked everywhere.

At that time, Wei Xun had already returned to the Zongmen from the Rising Sun Boundary Wall. After careful consideration, he decided to abandon the original site of the Zongmen together with the other two remaining Zongmen around.

Go to Tianyan Domain to join Tianyanzong.

Because there were monks from the Tianyan Sect escorting them, the retreat of the entire sect was carried out in an orderly manner.

Not only the disciples of the sect had migrated away, but even casual cultivators left here with the large team.

Today, it is said that Lingxiaozong has established a city of cultivating immortals not far from Tianyanzong, called "Lingxiao City", and it has become one of the affiliated cities of cultivating immortals of Tianyanzong.

"Have you heard of Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan on Xiaozhufeng? Were they still there at that time?"

The old man smiled and said:

"Of course I've heard that the younger generation was still working in the Yun Mansion back then. They are still alive and well. Patriarch Yun is very kind to me and these casual cultivators. Such people will naturally have great luck, of course. will live well."

Chen Ping's hanging heart finally let go.

He looked to the north and said:

"I'm going to Tianyanzong now. If you want to leave, I can take you with me."

I'm afraid the environment here is not very friendly.

The old man shook his head and said with a smile:

"Chen Fengzhu, this junior is too old, the old one doesn't want to move anymore."

"To tell the truth, Fengzhu Chen, there are still many monks in this city who have not left. They all chose to stay in the past. Not to mention, since the sect moved away, the demons seldom visit here. The harm is so big. The place now belongs to me and these people."

Chen Ping nodded and said nothing more.

It flew out with a 'whoosh' sound.

He couldn't wait to go back to Tian Yanzong, return to Lingxiao City, and meet his relatives.

All the way to the north, the places I saw were much more desolate than before.

With the advent of troubled times, the monks are all migrating to the big sects and the big Xiuxian city, and many small sects and small Xiuxian cities are gone.

Because Lingxiao City was built to the north of Tianyan Sect, Chen Ping returned to Tianyan Sect first.

When the Ninth Peak fell, Xiyue seemed to have heard the news in advance, and was already sitting under a green pine on the edge of the cliff waiting for him, holding a jug in her hand.

"Disciple has met Master." Chen Ping fell beside her.

Sitting down beside Xiyue at this moment, his heart suddenly became much more peaceful.

For some reason, Xiyue always gave him a very reassuring feeling.

This feeling is difficult for others to give him.

"Didn't you go to Lingxiao City to see your lady first?" Xiyue picked up the jug and took a sip, her voice slowly.

"I want to come and see Master first, and then go see them." Chen Ping said calmly, seeing that the jug she was holding in her hand was not the jug of 'Jian Nanchun', he was taken aback for a moment:

"Have you finished drinking the nameless wine?"

It was quite a lot back then.

"Yeah." Xiyue's eyes wandered.

Chen Ping looked at the master next to him again, only to find that her face was a little pale, not only her face was pale, but her aura was much weaker than before.

In my heart:

"Master was injured? The injury you received in the Rising Sun Boundary Wall?"

And it seems that the injury is not light.

"No. It's okay. Tell me about your falling into the new space."

Seeing that she didn't seem to want to talk, Chen Ping didn't ask any more.

I told her about the Chasing Ink Field, including the two passes I encountered before and after. The first one was related to the smiling fox, and she knew the existence of the smiling fox.

It is necessary to tell her this at this moment, which will help her make some decisions.

The latter solution is closely related to the Spiritual Heart Cave she provided, and there is nothing to hide.

As for the method of breaking it, it can only be said that Yinyue played the main role.

"By the way, Master fell into the ink chasing field back then, why didn't you join us? You came back from the Moyang boundary wall?"

Xiyue turned her head to look at Chen Ping:

"Why do you say that? As a teacher, I didn't fall into the field of chasing ink."

Chen Ping was a little disappointed:

"Master, there are still some things you don't want to tell me?"

Xiyue frowned slightly: "Is it necessary for me to lie?"

Chen Ping froze, he met Xiyue's eyes, he couldn't see any lying elements in her clear eyes, he couldn't help but be taken aback:

"Master, did you really not fall into the ink chasing field?"

"What do you mean?" Xiyue looked at Chen Ping with some dissatisfaction.

Chen Ping looked at Xiyue again, her eyes were clear without any ripples, and a creepy thought arose in his heart:

"That"

He roughly told Xiyue about the situation in the heart of the spirit veins.

Xiyue frowned after listening, puzzled and unbelievable thoughts spread in her eyes:

"You mean, someone imitated my handwriting, used a code word that only you and I know, and lured you into a space crack, but it didn't harm you, but gave you such a great treasure as the heart of the spirit veins. Chance?"

Chen Ping smiled wryly:

"It sounds unbelievable, but it is the truth."

He thought of something, and quickly took out the heart of Lingmai:

"Master, help me see if there is any problem with this spirit vein heart?"

At first I thought it was a gift from Xiyue, so I didn't have any scruples about using it.

Now that he knew that it was not the master's doing, he had to doubt the motive behind it, and had to worry about whether the heart of the spirit vein had been tampered with.

For example, poisoning.

Xiyue took the heart of the spirit vein, looked at the thumping crystal heart, looked at it for a while, then closed her eyes slightly to perceive it:

"There is no problem, it is the purest spiritual heart. It is even the top grade among the spiritual hearts."

She handed the heart of Lingmai to Chen Ping:

"Take it away, don't show it to others in the future."

When more words came to her lips, she stopped again. In terms of being cautious, she seemed to have nothing to remind Chen Ping.

Even at this moment when Chen Ping took out the heart of the spirit veins, she found that Chen Ping had already created several talismans around him to isolate his consciousness.

"If it wasn't for Master, who would it be?" Chen Ping received the heart of the spirit vein.

This person knows such a detailed secret between me and Xiyue, either from the people around me or the people around Xiyue.

I don't have such a capable person around me.

Xiyue seemed to realize this too, but immediately shook her head again:

"I can't figure it out even as a teacher."

"This kind of great opportunity is willing to be handed over to others, and in the name of my seat, I hide my name."

"As a teacher, I will check it for you as much as possible. But at present, this person does not have any malice towards you, so you don't have to worry too much."

Chen Ping nodded.

It's not malicious, it just doesn't make sense.

He is actually not very familiar with many people around Xiyue, even those Xiyue's disciples on the Ninth Peak, he and them are just nodding acquaintances.

At most, I will have a better friendship with Senior Sister Guan.

Could it be Senior Sister Guan?

Not likely.

Except Senior Sister Guan.

And Silvermoon.

yes.

silver moon

Yinyue and Xiyue are relatively familiar, so they might know some of my secrets. She fell into the Zhumo field more than three months in advance, so she has the best chance to know the environment there like the back of her hand.

Could it be that she discovered that cave first, and then gifted it to me?

She knows that she is unable to break through the barrier of Chasing Mo Field, so she wants me to use the power of that chance to get out of Chasing Mo Field?

It is indeed possible.

But why secretly?

Even if it is a gift, she can give it generously, there is no need to use Xiyue's name.

Does she have some dark secret?

Chen Ping shook his head, unable to figure out the reason.

Fortunately, this person has no ill intentions towards him.

"How is the situation of the Rising Sun Boundary Wall?" Chen Ping asked, no longer entangled in the issue of the heart of the spirit vein.

In Xiyue's narration, I learned that even though some human monks fell into the ink-chasing field back then, the advantage of human monks over demons still did not change.

After a brutal fight, although there were many casualties on the human side, all the demons were successfully killed in the end.

Completely blocked the passage from the Demon Realm to the Rising Sun Realm Wall.

Originally, they wanted to completely destroy the Rising Sun Boundary Wall, but because they didn't know the situation of Zhumochang, after all, there were still many compatriots who were chasing Mojichang, so they chose to temporarily station on the Rising Sun Boundary Wall after deliberation.

Now that Chen Ping and the others have successfully walked out of the Chasing Mo Field, the Rising Sun Boundary Wall and the Chasing Mo Field should have almost come to the end of their lives.

Back then, except for a small number of monks who stayed behind, the other monks returned to Xizhou immediately.

Xiyue was among the first to return.

Also including Senior Sister Guan.
