At this point, the list of Broad Sea Beastmen has been determined as follows:
Yun Jiu Tang, Shen Ying Yang, Gu Xue Luo, Li Zongyin, Wang Qing Chuan, Murong Ming, Yu Yin. Amongst these seven people, Shen Jingyang, Gu Xueluo, and Wang Qingchuan had all participated in the first extermination of a wild sea beast thirteen years ago. Compared to the team from thirteen years ago, this one was small, but stronger. Yun Jiu Tang could be said to be a few times stronger than thirteen years ago when he was under the control of the ancient hidden bow. Shen Jingyang's cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds during this period. Gu Xueluo and Wang Qingchuan had also made significant progress. Li Zongyin had risen from the seven disciples of Supreme Profound Capital to become three disciples.
The sun rose. The snowstorm had stopped. Outside Taixuan's capital gate, Yin Bao Scrolls and the sword ruler shaped eyebrows came to bid farewell to the Beast Descending Soldiers. In the cold wind. The two disciples walked over carrying a huge vat. The vat was filled with a white mist, and the fragrance of alcohol assaulted the nostrils. It turned out that this was a warm wine for a grand journey.
Everyone raised their bowls and drained them in one gulp. "Yun Jiu Tang finished it in one gulp, from the back of his throat to the bottom of his heart. There was a warm, sweet, and faintly burning pain in his throat." "What wine is this?" he asked himself.
"Compared to Jade Wall's spring colors, does the Mysterious Grand have no decent wine?" Murong Ming muttered as his mouth twisted into a ball.
Yun Jiuchang thought, it seemed like this magnificent wine really wasn't a jade. This trip to the Great Sea was fraught with dangers and the future was uncertain. Why didn't he dissuade Gu Xueluo at first and let her take the risk? If he encountered danger on this trip, wouldn't he regret it for the rest of his life? He turned his head around and saw that the Yin Yang treasure scroll and the sword and eyebrows were gradually becoming blurry, turning into a black dot and disappearing bit by bit.
"Aiya, brother, don't think too much. When the boat arrives at the bridge, it will naturally straighten out." Murong Ming raised his head, patting his shoulder as he consoled him in a low voice.
Yun Jiuchang turned around to look at Murong Dawn with a face full of surprise, as if he was guessing something. How do you know what I'm thinking?
Murong Ming's eyes were hazy, and he revealed a mysterious expression. He laughed, "Your thoughts are all written on your face."
The wind was blowing far away, as soon as he entered the deep blue snow of the Great Sea.
The longsword was solitary, relegated to a dream, of course, time has its own regrets.
At this moment, a cold wind blew, the banner fluttered in the wind, Yun Jiuchang's heart was suddenly filled with a sense of desolation, and he couldn't help but be filled with a myriad of emotions. Life was short, the years were hard. Hopefully, there would be an end to this. When they all returned, they would still bring back their wine and wine.
The path out of the capital extended all the way to the bottom of the mountain. Yun Jiuchang felt that the pace was slow, like the end of a distant road that he could not see. He must have walked this road frequently thirteen years ago. It must have been a pleasant experience and feeling, far from being as preoccupied and distracted as he was now. If possible, he really wanted to experience life in Taixuan once more, to experience life, death, joy, anger, and sadness as a mortal.
First, they left Taixuan and arrived at the intersection of the Mortal Realm, the Great Sea and the Spirit Realm. They passed through the Great Sea's snowy plains, and finally arrived at the Snow Beast's lair where Qiong Qi was. Walking along this path, Shen Jingyang, Gu Xueluo, and Wang Qingchuan were all very familiar with it. They could try to avoid detours and avoid detours in order to save as much time as possible, as well as stamina.
After a while, they arrived at a fork in the road.
"Wait a minute, don't be impatient. Which way should we go?" Murong Ming twisted his fat body and ran to the front, reaching out his hand to block everyone's path. He pouted his mouth, and the "eight" on his moustache instantly changed to "one".
"Of course we're going to take the main road. Mayor Murong, if you don't know, then don't mess around." Shen Yushi pointed at a wide road in front of them. "This is the road to the Great Sea."
Murong Ming glanced at him, tilted his head, and purposely raised his voice as he said, "How could I not know? I was well-prepared before coming." Young Hero Shen is indeed right, this road is easy to take, but have you forgotten that the last time this road led to the Great Sea, they had to pass through the Ice Mountain Snow Plains?
The faces of Shen Jingyang and the others immediately turned deathly pale. Fear was written all over their faces, and no one dared to speak a single word.
Li Zongyin looked at everyone with a puzzled expression, "In the end, the Ice Mountain Snow Plains …" What is it? "
Murong Ming's round eyes shot out a cold, serious light, "Flying Blood Bat!" These few words that came out of his mouth sent shivers down everyone's spines.
Yun Jiu Tang looked at the crowd's silent appearance and thought to himself, "Just what kind of vicious beast is this Flying Blood Bat? It can even make the experienced Shen Jingyang pale in comparison." Just as he was guessing, Murong Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Brother Yun, looking at your calm and indifferent expression, you probably still don't know how powerful it is, right?"
"I'm willing to listen to the details!"
"Good, then let me tell you, the Flying Blood Bats are gathered on the snowy plains near the edge of the Great Sea. They are the most bloodthirsty fierce beasts other than the poor magical beasts, and they grow in groups and groups of fierce beasts. They can instantly devour a horse to the point where not even a bone is left behind."
As Yun Jiu Tang listened to Murong Ming's spirited narration, he suddenly recalled the bloody records of the Flying Blood Bat in the 'Ancient Heavenly Spirit Record'. He then asked, "Did you meet the Flying Blood Bat last time?"
"That's exactly what I want to say. Thirteen years ago, when the team of beasts was attacked by the Flying Blood Bat right after they entered the Wild Sea, I think Young Hero Shen, Xue Luo and Lady Qing Chuan will still remember that bloody and cruel scene, right?" Murong Yu went on and on, as if he was the person who had experienced the whole incident personally, but he changed his speech and said passionately, "It's the road ahead that leads to the snowy plains of the Ice Mountain. If we follow the old route this time, then we will fight a bloody battle in the Wild Sea first! Everyone, at that time, let's all leave it to fate! "
Upon hearing his last sentence, Yu Yin immediately curled her lips: "Pei pei, can you not be so unlucky when speaking!"
Yun Jiu Tang said, "Then let's see what the mayor has to suggest."
Murong Mingtian's face was suddenly covered in smiles, unlike an ordinary person who remained expressionless. He could still explode with anger in one second, and start laughing in the next. He pointed at another path and said in a clear voice, "Although this path is rugged, it's a shortcut to the Great Sea." He pointed at another path and said in a clear voice, "Although this path is rugged, it's a shortcut to the Great Sea.
Shen Jingyang was a little disapproving as he coldly replied, "You've never been to Hanhai before, how do you know where this road leads to? It's most likely just some nonsense." City Lord, this is not a child's play, it's related to the safety of the Six Realms.
Initially, the two of them were separated by more than three meters, but the crowd was unable to see how quickly Murong Ming had jumped over. "Who said anything nonsense, I've personally measured this road, and I remember that the road ahead is windy, and after crossing the crossing we'll reach the west side of Xuanyuan Cliff. After half a day we'll reach the sea, and if you don't believe me, we can make a bet!"
Yun Jiuchang was shocked. This short fatty had unexpectedly examined the road to the sea so meticulously that it filled him with admiration.
Seeing everyone look at him with admiration in their eyes, Murong Ming regained his proud and complacent expression. His round face seemed to have a flower blossoming on it, "If you don't mind, I'm willing to lead the way. We can even have a good meal here at the Wind Ridge!"
Seeing him twisting around in front of them with his fat body and his bumpy butt, the crowd secretly laughed at his comical appearance, but they did not take it to heart.
Under the lead of Murong Dawn, everyone walked quickly along this rugged trail. After a long journey, they arrived at a desperate open area at sunset.
A gloomy river lay before him. The river water was deep and blue. It flowed down and divided the rolling valley into two, forming a natural ferry beside a tall valley. Looking at this quiet and serene otherworldly realm, Yun Jiu Tang thought to himself that this was probably the legendary Wind Ridge Crossing.
Murong Kongming felt intoxicated. "Everyone, this place isn't bad, is it? Welcome to the Wind Ridge!"
At this time, the last rays of the setting sun had already faded and the sky gradually darkened. Mu Rong Kongming turned around and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Follow me. Let's go find Madam Peach Blossom and have a good meal tonight!"
"Madam Peach Blossom?!" Everyone muttered in their hearts, just what kind of place was this Wind Ridge Crossing? Why have I never heard of it before? As the City Lord of the Wings City, how could Murong Kongming be so familiar with this remote place?
Shen Jingyang couldn't hold himself back anymore, "Mayor Murong, we …"
Before Shen Jingyang could finish his sentence, Murong Dawn turned around and cut in, "I know you have a lot of questions. Eat a hearty meal first, then chat while eating. I'll satisfy all of your curiosity."
It was already dusk. They stepped through the thick snow and arrived at a bright and spacious manor. After entering the manor, Murong Dawn raised his voice and said in a high-pitched voice, "Madam Peach Blossom, your old friend is here to visit you!"
Just as she finished speaking, three maidservants wearing red gowns walked out of the hall. When they came to a stop, they saw a middle-aged lady wearing brocade silk clothing, with a high collar, and a benevolent expression, slowly walking out. "So it's City Lord Murong, why did you get blown over here by such a heavy snowstorm?"
Murong Ming smiled and said, "That's right Madam, we just happened to pass by the Wind Ridge Crossing, so we took a detour to see Madam. "Snow, snow, cold night, we are starving, do you have any hot tea or cooked food …"
"Yes, of course there is." Madam Peach Blossom quickly moved her body and brought everyone into the hall. "I'll have the maids prepare everything."
Looking at the steaming dishes on the table, Yun Jiu Tang thought to himself, on this snowy night, people are poor, hungry and cold. Having this kind of place to shelter from the cold and warm clothes is a great blessing on our journey. If he hadn't listened to Murong Ming's arrangements, he would most likely still be walking forward amidst the snowstorm.
The cold winter night had completely wrapped up all the carts and horses that everyone had come for the day. After they had had their fill of wine and food, they fell into a deep slumber.
On the morning of the next day, Yun Jiuchang, who had woken up the earliest, was incomparably depressed. Looking at the dark clouds in the distant sky, although this vast valley had not yet begun to drift with snow, the Wind Ridge Crossing not far from the garden was already filled with snow.
Such a strange phenomenon was rarely seen. The snowstorm had stopped last night, and the Wind and Mausoleum Crossing was half a kilometer away. Why did the Wind Ridge Crossing have such strange weather? Yun Jiuchang's brows tightened as he murmured, "How can we get through such a heavy snowstorm at the ferry?"
How else can we pass? Of course we have to wait, we can only wait until the snow stops before we pass. "Murong Ming didn't know when, but it was already behind him. His usual smiling face was also solemn, and his voice had become a lot deeper, as if he had lost the confidence he had when he first arrived.
"When you first brought us here, you didn't say that the weather here was changeable," Shen Jingyang said as he walked over from nowhere, feeling extremely vexed at the sudden change in the weather. "But even if the ferry-crossing is covered with snow, as long as we don't have to fear danger, we can still get through it."
Yun Jiu Tang said, "Shooting Sun, I heard that the Wind Tomb Ferry is extremely dangerous. Many people have been buried here, so we should put our safety first."
Mu Rong Kong Ming's face was ashen, his eyes filled with killing intent as he stared at the distant Snow Wind Ferry and said solemnly, "The Wind Ridge Crossing was originally known as the Number One Crossing Under Heaven. If the previous generation of Qing Qiu Mountain people wanted to cross the Floating Beam River, they would have to pass through the Wind Tomb. Currently, the other side of the river was a vast ocean, and no one could cross the river anymore. Therefore, the reputation of the Wind Ridge Crossing had dimmed down, but its dangers still existed. "If we rush forward in this blizzard, there's a good chance that …"
"Aiya! "Don't be so alarmist all the time, can't you say something pleasant?" Yuyin, Gu Xueluo, and Wang Qingchuan also woke up early and walked over from behind.
"I don't have any alarmist rumors. Those who are interested can inquire about it and see just how many lives have been devoured in the past hundred years …"
"Alright, alright, stop bringing up dead people all the time, we'll wait for the snow to stop before we cross the river." Yu Yin curiously moved closer to Murong Dawn, and stared at him with a pair of curious eyes, "Hey, what is the purpose of the Madam Peach Blossom here? I think she's not an ordinary person."
"It seems like only the two of us are normal people here. When we come to the Wind Ridge Passage, normal people would first be attracted by Lady Peach Blossom, rather than being infatuated with the broken ferry in front of them." Murong Mingtian's face lit up as he moved closer to the three ladies and spoke in a knowledgeable manner, "Speaking of Lady Peach Blossom's past, no one knows it better than me …" Yet, Murong Yu stopped in his tracks, looking at Yun Jiutang and Shen Jingyang, as if he was saying that the two of them weren't interested.
Yun Jiuchang was astounded, "Hey, talking about a man's strength behind his back, is this a gentleman's deed?"
"Then you two better cover your ears," Murong Ming said disapprovingly as he curled his lips. "You should know the jade ions of Taihua Altar. Lady Peach Blossom and him are a loving couple."
Ah!" Everyone was shocked.
"Back then, the love between the two of them was extremely great, and they gave birth to a daughter. However, on a dark night, their young daughter was lost and was never found again. Madam Peach Blossom was disheartened and was not willing to stay at Taihua Cliff for the rest of her life because she did not like jade and the sad cultivation path, so she came to the Wind Ridge to live by herself and eat and recite scriptures for the rest of her life. "
"Here, Madam Peach Blossom does not have much desire to recite sutras, but she still has a face that is not old for more than twenty years. With her peach forest as her home, and with her clever mind, and her fine wine made from peach blossoms, peach leaves, and floating beam of water — Peach Blossom, her name is renowned throughout the world, and is not the least bit inferior to the jade arm's spring color. "
"Madam Peach Blossom is very hospitable. Anyone who has passed through the Wind Ridge will be treated with hospitality and won't receive a dime to help them cross the river. "This kind of benevolent behavior is much better than that of that old Daoist Jade Li."
"Then does she still have any contacts with the Jade Parasite Altar's master?"
"They can't be considered friends, but they all know each other and have nothing to do with each other. The two of them are clear-minded and lacking in desires. Old Daoist Jade Li is obsessed with cultivation, and Lady Peach Blossom is here to stay for the rest of her life. However, when old Daoist Jade Li arrived at the primal chaos city a few years ago, he would have come by this place to take a look. "
"I never would have thought that even though the Jade Dragon Altar's master looks so meticulous in cultivating and looks so otherworldly, there's actually such a thing as a mortal thing. It actually has a daughter!" Yu Yin sighed.
Shen Jingyang solemnly smiled, a complicated look flowing through his eyes as he slowly said, "He's also a human. He has the seven emotions and six desires, and is a young and frivolous youth. No one can avoid him."
"Then, their daughter has mysteriously disappeared just like that? Is there no more news?"
"The world is big, and the sea of people is vast. Where are we going to find them?"
