Outside Yi An's door, everyone said their goodbyes and said their goodbyes. The morning wind was biting cold and snow was flying in the air. For some reason, this year's Qing Qiu Mountain nearly never stopped snowing after entering winter. This winter was especially cold.
In the thin snow, Yun Jiuchang and Shen Zhongyang hugged each other, unwilling to part with each other. Brother Yun, after more than a month of living together with the wild sea beast, you have changed my view of the demon realm. I have made this friend of yours my friend. "Shen Jingyang patted Yun Jiuchang's shoulder as the memories of the adventure together to kill the wild beasts were still engraved on the youth's handsome face." I don't know when we'll meet again, but please take care.
"Brother Shen, now that the Qing Qiu Mountains are covered in snow, where are you going?"
"Qing Qiu Mountain is so big, why should I worry about not having a place for Shen Jingyang to stay? I still have things I haven't done yet, and maybe after I finish, I will find a quiet and beautiful place with Yuyin and live a happy and carefree life like I live in peace." Shen Jingyang tightly held Yu Yin's hand as he walked forward, looking at her gloomy face, and casually said.
"That's good. Brother Shen, let's part ways here. Don't forget about our Cave of Absolute Mountain …"
Shen Jingyang quickly interrupted Yun Jiuchang's words, "As long as you and I remember each other."
At this moment, the snowflakes were even tighter. They were blown along with the wind onto everyone's hair. The stars were white in color and were exceptionally clear in their black hair. Dugu Jiuyi watched as the group of people disappeared into the distance, turning into a black dot. He stood there for a long time, until a thin layer of snow covered his eyebrows, blurring his vision. Only then did he regain his senses.
"Father, what's wrong? It's already snowing heavily, hurry up and enter the house." Hua Hua held up an oil-cloth umbrella as she walked over and said.
"Oh, let's go back. I'm a bit reluctant to watch these young heroes leave." Dugu Jiu turned around and walked back. At this moment, he thought of Yun Jiu Tang and Shen Ying Yang who were listening to him in the pavilion late at night and was filled with emotions. He sighed with emotion.
Xuanyuan Yan was located at the edge of the three realms of Qing Qiu Mountain, Spirit World, and Great Sea. Thus, after exiting Xuanyuan Yan, he could directly enter the Spiritual Realm. The three people of Yun Jiu Tang, Gu Xue Luo, and Murong Dawn rode their horses, Wang Qing Chuan and Gu Xue Luo riding on the same horse. This way, they could ensure that the almost unconscious Wang Qing Chuan wouldn't fall under the horse.
As they were about to enter the capital of the spirit world — Ling Chuan, the three of them slowed down. Looking from afar, Ling Chuan sat on a piece of flat land with his palace building towering like a fairyland. The three of them were so focused on travelling that they forgot to appreciate the scenery along the way. For the three of them, this was their first time entering the spirit world. Although Gu Xueluo had been cooped up in Broken Bowel Valley for ten years, this was still their first time coming to the spirit world.
The spirit world was different from the four seasons of the world. In the spirit world, there seemed to be only autumn. There was no scorching sun, and there were very few blizzards. The three of them looked around, looking at the maple leaves and flowers along the way.
"Did you know that this is the place in my dream? It's simply a paradise," Murong Ming's voice was filled with shock, as if he had found his home. He was wild with joy.
Yun Jiuchang shot a glance at Murong Dawn, a smile appearing on his face. "This place is much better than your Wing City, right? It can provide the materials for your novel yet again."
"Of course, that's right. In my strange novels, you're the male protagonist!" With a face full of smiles, Murong Ming greedily looked at the scenery around him, then turned around and spoke to Yun Jiuchang.
Very quickly, the three entered Ling Chuan, and for the first time in their lives, they walked into a place that was rumored to be breathtakingly beautiful. In Spirit Creek, there were wide and wide streets. The pedestrians were like Jade Wall City. On both sides of the street, there were many teahouses and teahouses that were as flourishing as if they were in the mortal world.
The Spirit Palace was spacious and mysterious; purple smoke lingered in the air. The three of them handed Wang Qingchuan over to the maidservant and sat down in the main hall.
Sigh, Miss Xue Luo, your Immortal World's Feng Lin Continent should also be bustling with wealth and wealth, right? "Murong Ming came over and asked curiously." If you have the chance in the future, you must bring us to visit your Feng Lin Continent.
As the three of them were speaking, the sound of light footsteps and resounding footsteps could be heard. Mu Sangqing walked into the hall with her hair flowing behind her. Before they even arrived, her voice floated over, "Thank you for your efforts. If it weren't for you sending Yue Lingzi back to Qingchuan, she would be in trouble by now."
When Yun Jiuchang saw Mu Sangqing walking over, he signaled Gu Xueluo and Murong Yu to stand up and bow. "We failed to protect Lady Qing Chuan from this beast hunt, causing her to suffer severe injuries," Yun Jiu Tang said calmly, feeling extremely guilty in his heart. "If the Mu realm were to punish us first, Yun Jiu Tang would be willing to accept the punishment."
Looking carefully today, he was indeed a brilliant young man. He was even more convinced by his courage and insight into the vast sea, "Young Master Yun, where are you from? The killing of beasts in the sea is extremely dangerous, it would not be easy for you to kill off the Qiong Qi and retreat safely. How can you take care of each other?"
"Yeah, I was fortunate enough to be present at that time and witnessed the entire process of their battle with Qiong Qi." Murong Dawn seemed to have felt it and thought about the scene where everyone was fighting in the Snowy Beast Catacombs and almost died, his face was solemn as he said, "That scene was really shocking. Miss Qing Chuan showed great courage, but unfortunately, she was plotted against by someone on the way back …"
He clearly said: "That masked man appeared very strange, moreover he could easily avoid Young Master Yun and Young Master Shen's counterattack, did none of you see his face at all?" Fang Yunyi was extremely dissatisfied with Wang Qingchuan's serious injuries. She believed that it was caused by the lack of assistance from the others and the scattered sand, so she had her suspicions regarding the beast hunt.
"Being attacked by the black clothed man this time around was purely an accident, just that the black clothed man's attack was too strange." Yun Jiuchang did not mind his doubts, but at this moment, he was more concerned about Wang Qingchuan's injuries, "Chief Mu just checked on Lady Qing Chuan's injuries, I wonder how she is doing."
Pills and medical skills in the Spiritual Realm were top-notch in the Six Realms. After Wang Qingchuan was delivered to Mu Lengqing, she quickly checked her injuries. Originally, the injuries in the sea could only be healed through meditation. However, the palm attack from the black clothed man was strange and landed right on his chest, injuring his Essence and inner force and requiring him to recover his Spiritual Qi and Essence.
"It's not life-threatening at the moment, but the palm of the man in black was very vicious and had injured Qing Chuan's vital energy and internal energy. It would require a lot of Zhen Qi and the spiritual herbs in the spiritual world, so it shouldn't be a big problem." Mu Wenqing revealed a troubled expression as she continued, "If we had the Great Desolate Blood Herb to concoct the soup, Qing Chuan's injuries would quickly recover."
"Mysterious Blood Grass?"
"Mm. The Profound Blood Grass is a rare medicine in the world that can help people quickly recover their true energy and inner strength. However, because it's extremely rare and grew in the great wasteland, it's even more precious."
"Master, we've invited the spirit child to wake up!" Suddenly, a servant girl came to report. The crowd followed Mu Lengqing.
In the deep room, Wang Qingchuan's pale face was drained of all color. The sockets of his eyes were sunken, and the water that had not dripped for days had caused his lips to dry up. Looking at Wang Qingchuan's sickly appearance, Yun Jiuchang's heart suddenly throbbed and twitched, his heart throbbed with an indescribable pain. Although he hadn't spent much time with Wang Qingchuan, he could clearly feel her chivalrous tenderness, her enchanting charm, and especially her spirited voice that left a deep impression on him.
Wang Qingchuan slowly opened his eyes and spoke like he was in a dream, "Chief, Young Master Yun, I …" This is... "Where is …?" She stared at Yun Jiuchang with her weak eyes, unwilling to move away. Only Yun Jiuchang could feel that her eyes were filled with gratitude, trust, deep affection and reluctance.
"Qing Chuan, don't be afraid. You have safely returned to the Spiritual Palace, and no one can hurt you anymore."
After a while, Wang Qingchuan fell asleep again. At this time, it was time for Yun Jiu Tang to take his leave. He made up his mind that if Qing Chuan's condition did not improve even after he dealt with the current situation, he would personally go to the Wasteland and pick the Mysterious Blood Grass for him.
After walking out of the spirit river, Murong Ming seemed to be reluctant to part, "Young hero Yun, where are we going in such a hurry? Can't we stay here for a few days?"
Gu Xueluo smiled as she looked at Yun Jiuchang, "If I'm not wrong, we're about to head to the Supreme Mystery City. We haven't reported back to Elder Yin even after killing the beasts in the Great Sea."
When he heard that he was going to see Yin Bao Scroll in Taixuan, Murong Ming's face instantly lit up with displeasure. "Really? I'm most afraid of meeting that old Taoist. When we meet, I'll inevitably have to nag him again."
Yun Jiuchang couldn't help but laugh. He exchanged glances with Gu Xueluo and whipped his horse. Firstly, he came back to report that he had returned from Hanhai, and secondly, he had a lot of questions that he had regarding the situation after killing the beast. Secondly, he wanted to tell Yin Mo about: About the situation after killing the beast, about the man in black, about the situation in the six realms, and even about the real situation of Qiong Qi. He urgently needed to clear away the layers of fog and find the answers to the questions, so he needed someone to confide in. However, he knew that this person was definitely not a sword ruler, nor was he Candle Jiu Yin.
The Supreme Mystery stood tall in the winter snow with its fangs high and its walls circling around it. It still looked like an old man who had gone through many trials and tribulations, but was still dignified.
Following Murong Ming's suggestion, the three of them entered the Supreme Profound City through a side door. This side door was the closest to the Blue Firmament Hall and the Black Cloud Palace. However, they had to pass through Extreme Abyss, which was a place Yun Jiuchang had never passed by before. Yun Jiu Tang searched his memories frantically for information regarding the origin of the lake and found out that there was actually an inescapable connection with the abyss: At the Slaughtering Beast Convention, the fifth Hidden Spirit fought against the Water Qilins in his previous life and won the fame of the Immortal Martial Immortal with four amazing skills; in his previous life, after the fifth Hidden Spirit died, blood and undead souls flowed from the depths of the lake and were frozen, sealed, and then were brought back to the Demonic World by Candle Jiu Yin … However, the Twilight Jade Qi that he was wearing, disappeared from the depths of the abyss. "From the depths of the abyss, he once had an unforgiving feeling towards the Cloud Nine-Tang. Today, he finally experienced such a magnificent sight.
As they neared the surface of the abyss, waves of cold wind assaulted their senses. It was extremely cold, and gave off an indescribably solemn feeling. The water from the depths of the abyss was deep, yet it was not frozen even in the flying snow.
Many years later seeing this love once again, Gu Xueruo's thoughts seemed to drift back to a dozen or so years ago. That year, she had experienced such a bustling change that had caused the heroes of the six realms to flock to her like a flock of birds. That year, at the Extreme Abyss Beastslayer Meet, it was probably from that moment that Gu Xueluo fell in love with the fifth Hidden Spirit. From that time onwards, she had flourished for two lifetimes, and would never change from the moment she died.
"Looking at such a magnificent scene from the depths of the abyss, I recall the Slaughtering Beast Guild that year …" As one of the seventeen judges, he had witnessed the extraordinary demeanor of the twelve pots of disciples in the past. "Fifth Hidden Spirit, the original Daoist Master Su, Shen Jingyang, Ning An Stage, Zhao Yuyi, Li Zongyin, and others, who were all famous throughout the world, starting from here."
"What? Mayor Murong knows about the fifth hidden spirit?" Yun Jiu Tang looked at him, puzzled.
"Of course, we've met several times." Murong Ming casually said.
"Oh, really?" Yun Jiu Tang became suspicious as he searched his memory for memories of Murong Dawn. Unfortunately, he still couldn't find anything. It was obvious that he was lying.
As the three of them were discussing, suddenly, a dark current surged on the surface of the calm Abyss. Huge vortexes continuously appeared, mixed with waves of muffled sounds. It was like the muffled sound of an explosion from a sealed jar. The three of them were shocked. Yun Jiuchang gripped his black iron sword tightly, ready to block the incoming danger at any time.
In a split-second, a pillar that was stirred up by a monstrous wave suddenly rose from the depths of the abyss. It was several zhang high, which made people's hair stand on end. The huge wave turned into a rain of ice, raining down on the three of them. Immediately, it became so cold that it pierced their hearts. Before they could wipe away the cold rain, a green fanged head appeared on the surface of the chasm — the Aquatic Qilin!
This was the first time in Yun Jiu Tang's life that he saw such a grand thing. His heart trembled in fear as he tightly held onto Gu Xue Luo's hand, shielding her behind him. At this moment, Gu Xueluo felt that Yun Jiuchang's hands were actually so warm. How could those large hands be so similar to that person's, soft and safe?
The Aquatic Qilin raised its head. Its huge nostrils continuously emitted dense moisture. The dragon whiskers on its head swayed in the wind. It stared at the three people on the shore with its empty eyes while growling incessantly. Murong Yu wanted to turn around and flee, but Yun Jiuchang held him down tightly. He struggled to break free in fear. "Hurry and run, it'll be too late if you don't run now …"
"What are you running for, calm down!" Yun Jiu Tang looked at the Aquatic Qilin and saw no intention of attacking. He slowly submerged his upper body into the water. After a while, his entire body was submerged by the surface of the lake. The entire lake quickly regained its tranquility.
The three of them finally snapped out of their daze and tidied up their wet clothes. With his eyes fixed on the grass on the ground, Murong Yu found a small piece of unpolished jade lying on the ground. He carefully picked it up with his hands. It was a square piece of unpolished jade. Its entire body was polished until it shone, and its dark blue luster exuded a mysterious feeling. Putting the unpolished jade on his palm, he could feel its coldness and strangeness. It was as if there was a power that could take one's heart and soul and lead them to fly into the distance.
"This piece of unpolished jade is so strange. It looks like it's a treasure. Mayor, this time you're rich." Gu Xueluo looked at the unpolished jade, and seemed to be speaking seriously to Murong Dawn.
"Really? Where did this jade come from?" Murong Ming raised the unpolished jade over his head and carefully observed it, as if he was trying to understand its origin and origin. "It seems like it's just an ordinary jade.
Yun Jiuchang looked at the unpolished jade in Murong Ming's hand. That dark blue light gave him a sense of familiarity, as if it was the colors in his memories. He searched through his memories, but couldn't find them no matter how hard he tried.
Sigh, that's fine. I've finally thought of its use. "A hint of a surprised smile appeared on Murong Ming's face, and his eyebrows shot up." We just happen to be going to participate in Yu Chang's birthday celebration.
