On their way back, Yun Jiuchang carried Murong Ming's fat body as he shuttled back and forth between the heaven and earth. Murong Ming felt as dizzy as if he was walking into heaven and earth. By the time that feeling was about to disappear, the three of them had already returned to the Qing Qiu Mountains.
As soon as he landed on the ground, Yun Jiu Tang hurriedly let go of Murong Yu, as though a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders, "How tiring, Mayor. How can you be so fat? Luckily my skills are profound," he said as he patted his sore shoulder, breathing heavily and waving his hand nonstop, "It's best not to look for me for something like this in the future."
Gu Xueluo couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Yun Jiuchang's breathless appearance. "Mayor, it looks like it's a lot of burden for us to be together with you."
"Sigh, there's no other way. I've always been like this …" He turned to Yun Jiu Tang, pretending to be mysterious as he said, "However, I have a way that can make you guys feel a hundred times more at ease, so you don't have to worry about me anymore." He looked at Yun Jiu Tang's doubtful and eager eyes, "Teach me all of your inner strength.
"That's a good idea." The three of them laughed heartily.
Yun Jiu Tang looked around at the unfamiliar scenery around him, his eyes could already see the hazy outline of a mountain peak. Judging from its imposing and imposing shape, it should be a magnificent rock, he naturally thought of the absolute mountain cave, he had not seen a Qiong Qi beast for a long time. He secretly laughed in his heart. What a poor little beast! In the past, Qiong Qi Divine Beast was a name that made everyone tremble with fear. But now, it was only tightly shut in a small Exquisite Pagoda. But even so, he could not be careless. If the Qiong Qi that broke out of the tower changed into the original form of the Great Sea, then that would be an unprecedented calamity for the human world.
"Now, let's get back to the main topic," Yun Jiuchang's expression became serious as he pointed towards the distant mountain peaks, "Not too far away is Taihua Rock, we have to hurry there …"
"Then how much longer do we have to walk? It's called 'not too far in front'." He said with a sullen face, "Don't tell me there's a treasure trove there?"
"Yeah, let me tell you, the treasures there are really priceless. The Twilight Jade Bind and the Mysterious Great Vein Map are simply incomparable to it."
"Really?" "There's such a precious treasure in this world, why haven't I heard of it before?"
"That's right, Mayor. After we arrive at Taihua Rock, I promise I'll give you a big surprise and make up for all the hardships you've gone through while we roamed the mountains and mountains."
The three of them ran towards the Taihua rocks in the distance, as if the 'treasure' Yun Jiuchang had mentioned was beckoning to them. However, no one could predict what kind of changes Taihua Rock's "treasure trove" would experience and what kind of disaster it would bring to the Qing Qiu Mountains.
Passing through several mountain peaks, the majestic outline of Taihua Peak Rock was already visible. The misty Taihua Peak Mountain Range was hidden and was extremely tranquil, giving off a sense of desolation and desolation as if a storm was brewing. Yun Jiu Tang looked towards the many layers of mountains as he searched for the location of the absolute mountain cave. Suddenly, he smelt a faint trace of fear mixed with a sense of unease, evil, and panic. It made Yun Jiu Tang feel extremely uneasy.
The mountain was frighteningly quiet. Occasionally, there would be the sound of birds chirping, reverberating back and forth in the valley until it disappeared, making the mountain seem even more mysterious and desolate. Xue Luo, "Yun Jiuchang became alert, his face was covered in cold smoke," Do you feel that the atmosphere is a little strange? He looked around, his sharp eyes scanning the mysterious mountains, searching for hidden dangers.
Gu Xueluo's face was blank as she followed his gaze. "No …" She didn't realize that anything was wrong. She looked around aimlessly at the rolling mountains, "Other than mountains, is there anything else that's different from before?"
"There's something different about this place. Normally, these mountains shouldn't be so quiet." His fine hair fluttered in the wind, and his green clothes seemed moist under the mist, as if they had been covered with a layer of dark grey. "Let's hurry to the dark cave at the absolute peak, quickly follow me!"
Mt. Everlasting Cave! It was only then that he thought of the Cave of Everlasting. He couldn't help but feel deeply worried. He could feel more and more that this mysterious and strange aura was emanating from the Cave of Absolute Mountain, spreading to the entire Taihua Cliff. He regretted that he had taken so long to get to the Cave of the Ultimate Ridge. He hoped that the Exquisite Pagoda was intact.
Just as they were about to cross a few mountain peaks, a loud bang came from the direction of Jue Ling's cave. It was as if the earth had been split open and the towering mountain peak in the distance had collapsed.
The faces of the three of them were as shocked as ghosts. It was as if they had met the most miraculous and most tragic calamity in the world, and they just stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. Suddenly, Yun Jiuchang snapped out of his daze and shouted, "This is bad! That is the Cave of Absolute Mountain! The Exquisite Pagoda is about to suffer!" His voice was hysterical, his tearing voice shook Gu Xueluo and Murong Dawn's ears, causing them to feel faint pain.
"Let's go together!" "It's so dangerous. How can we not worry about you going alone!" As soon as his words left his mouth, his small and weak body instantly transformed into a towering figure. In the face of danger, he actually became a vanguard. He was filled with a sense of righteousness.
At this moment, within the heaven-shattering sound that seemed like it would destroy the heavens, countless shrill and ear-piercing sounds seemed to emerge. At this moment, within the heaven-shattering sound that seemed like it would destroy the heavens, countless sharp and ear-piercing sounds seemed to appear. The towering mountain had collapsed, and a moment later it was a wasteland.
Suddenly, a cry pierced the sky. This cry was a hundred times more terrifying than the one before. The faces of the three of them were ashen, filled with fear. Yun Jiuchang's face had already contorted, he had never felt such fear before.
"Aooo …" Aoo … Amidst the howls, a huge beast raised its head and roared towards the sky.
"Yes …" Yes... Qiong Qi... "Divine Beasts …" Yun Jiu Tang's voice was cut off in fear, he could not believe his eyes, but he had to face reality. In his panic, he couldn't help but tightly grip Gu Xueluo's hand. Whenever danger appeared, their hands would always tightly hold each other's hand, and they would have a tacit understanding with each other.
Murong Yu was even more shocked. "Didn't Qiong Qi already get killed in the Great Sea? Why did he come out again?" As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he turned around and vomited. This was a unique and strange way of dealing with fear that Murong Yu had experienced. Every time he was in danger and was extremely afraid, he would retch on the spot.
Without further ado, Yun Jiu Tang grabbed Murong Yu's fat waist, leapt up from the mountain peak, and ran in the direction of the Qiong Qi Beast with Gu Xue Luo following closely behind. Murong Ming was already shocked by the scene in front of him as he shouted loudly in midair, "Let go of me! I don't want to see Qiongqi anymore! " He closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look directly at the Qiong Qi blood demon's bloody fangs in front of him.
When Murong Ming opened his eyes, he discovered that he was already in a dangerous situation. The three of them stood not too far away from Jue Ling's cave. In fact, the mountain where Jue Ling's cave was located had long since been broken through by Qiong Qi. The massive body of the mountain seemed to have been cut in half from the waist down. It was obvious that Qiong Qi had broken out from the Exquisite Pagoda.
Yun Jiu Tang looked carefully and realized that this Qiong Qi was more than twice the size of when he was imprisoned in the Great Sea. Its face was even more abhorrent as it opened and closed its bloody maw, spitting out a foul air. Its eyes were blood-red, glowing red in the dazzling sunlight, like two giant red fireballs, giving people a sense of disillusionment. What shocked Yun Jiuchang was that a sharp and thick black Qilin horn had actually grown on that Qiong Qi's head, trembling as its head swung about.
What had this Qiong Qi experienced? How did he get out of the impregnable Exquisite Pagoda? Yun Jiuchang's heart was filled with doubts.
While the three of them were hesitating, Qiong Qi raised his head high and opened his bloody mouth wide. He roared towards the sky and shook the earth, shattering the trees and leaves that covered the mountains and plains. Aoo … The tragic sounds were like the wailing of ghosts and the howling of wolves, as if it was trying to wake up all the beasts hidden in the mountains. In an instant, the originally blue sky turned dark, as if covered by a thick curtain. Soon after, black raindrops fell from the dark sky.
"Why is the rain black!" Murong Ming hurriedly swatted the rain that was falling on his body, and jumped up while constantly dodging. "Awesome!" This place is turning into a tomb! " His face was covered with black raindrops, like a corpse.
At this moment, the ground where the three of them were standing shook, as if mountains had collapsed and the earth had cracked. Yun Jiu Tang looked up and saw that the lower half of Qiong Qi's body had completely broken free from the bundle of the mountain. His entire body was stretched out in the middle of the mountain range, and the majestic mountain peak looked so small under his sharp claws. Its four claws moved forward step by step. Every step he took caused the ground to shake violently.
"It's moving," Murong Dawn exclaimed. "It seems to have discovered something!"
"Something terrible has happened." Yun Jiuchang could already see that Qiong Qi was walking in the direction of Taihua Altar. "Taihua Altar is in danger!" This place was about a hundred li away from the Tai Hua Altar. Yun Jiutang stared in horror at the distant silhouette of the building. The Tai Hua Altar's life was hanging by a thread.
Yun Jiu Tang guessed right, the Qiong Qi Beast was dragging its huge body towards the Tai Hua Altar. Perhaps it was because the Tai Hua Altar was attracted to it, its bloody mouth was approaching the Tai Hua Altar amidst the storm. In the next moment, death was about to befall.
Yun Jiu Tang seemed to have guessed that the Tai Hua Altar was in a state of chaos. The black rain, the howls of ghosts and wolves, the tremors of mountains collapsing and crumbling were like a heaven's net of fear, evil, death, and blood, instantly sprinkling over the Tai Hua Altar, covering all life.
"Quick!" Come with me to Taihua Altar! " Yun Jiu Tang called out loudly, held Gu Xueluo's hand and helped Murong Dawn who had gotten up from the ground. He activated his supreme lightness skill and sped towards the Tai Hua Altar.
As Yun Jiu Tang expected, Taihua Altar had already been thrown into chaos, many buildings had collapsed from the footsteps of the poor strange beasts, and were filled with panicked and screaming disciples. Those disciples who were not strong enough to leave the altar with their luggage, and those cowardly disciples were currently trying to find a more sturdy pavilion to hide in, and there were even some who had followed the main body of the strange beasts, awaiting the arrival of the destitute strange beasts.
Yun Jiuchang and the other two staggered into the Tai Hua Altar, but before they could steady themselves, they heard Jade Ion's familiar voice, "Young Master Yun, is it really you?" Jade Ion ran over from not far away. Seeing someone helping him in the face of danger made him very happy. "Great! With your help, I have more confidence!"
Yun Jiuchang didn't have time to exchange pleasantries as the Qiong Qi beast's body was like a large shadow in the sky, covering the sky and blotting out the sun. The Qiong Qi's blood-red eyes were filled with an evil light. Without waiting for the crowd to react, it suddenly opened its bloody mouth. Flames burst out from its mouth. Although it was far away, everyone could still feel the scorching heat.
"Suddenly, the flame in Qiong Qi's mouth turned into countless fiery sparks, shooting down like a tsunami towards Taihua Altar." "Oh no, the heavenly fire is coming!" In the midst of their panic, a cowardly disciple shouted loudly. The disciple who originally still had the heart to resist ran for his life like a receding tide. The flames shot down and pierced the chests, throats, heads, and limbs of those fleeing in panic. Immediately, cries, moans, and shouts filled the air as rivers of blood flowed from the Tai Hua Altar.
Each of the disciples under the command of Jade Ion had to use their power to resist the concentrated fire sparks that were shooting towards them. Yun Jiu Tang gathered his inner Qi, his palms fluctuated, the countless palm shadows shattered the hundreds of thousands of fire edges into powder.
While the crowd was resisting, the Qiong Qi was roaring crazily once again. The powerful sound that came from here destroyed all the rocks on the ground, and the two claws in front of him were slowly approaching the Tai Hua Altar. Facing this tiny being on the ground, he seemed like the lord of all life.
Suddenly, one of its claws lifted up, leaving a huge shadow on the ground. Suddenly, the claw stepped down. Yun Jiuchang exclaimed, "Hurry and get out of the way! Everyone move out of the way! " He yelled hysterically at the crowd, not caring about the incoming fire spears. Everyone flew out of the way, and those disciples who couldn't escape in time instantly became wraiths under the claws.
At this moment, it was as if Taihua Altar had become a purgatory of the human world.
Everyone was still in shock when they saw Qiong Qi lift up his other claw and grab onto a building under its feet. It was as if he had picked up a toy and directly threw it over. The building spread out in all directions and smashed towards the crowd.
With a loud shout, Jade Ion took the lead and rushed forward, swinging her sword to chop at the flying stones, but she did not know that behind the dense rocks was a huge and thick pillar stone, directly smashing into Jade Ion's chest. Everyone looked at this scene in horror. The next moment, they were all waiting for the jade ions with their flesh and blood splattering everywhere.
In that instant, a huge, curved bow caught the incoming pillar. Jade Ion stared blankly at the person behind the bow: Shen Jingyang! Yun Jiuchang was overjoyed. Not only was Shen Jingyang present in the midst of danger, but also Wang Qingchuan was rushing over to help. It was as if he could see the hope of his rebirth.
In the distance, through the fleeing figures, Yu Yin's eyes were staring straight at Jade Ion. It was the first time in her life that she had seen him. He was unfamiliar and distant.
Shen Jingyang's hidden bow was pointed at the pillar, but he quickly retreated in the air. An arrow made by a greedy wolf emerged from his back and nocked onto the pillar. With a "hong" sound, the thick pillar turned into dust in the blink of an eye. Standing dumbstruck on the spot, Jade Ion muttered, "Good one, return to the sect with ten thousand arrows!"
In the midst of their panic, Yun Jiuchang and Shen Jingyang looked at each other and smiled even though they were separated by a great distance. It was as if they were both in the middle of a wild sea fighting against a wild beast. Suddenly, Shen Jingyang felt somewhat distracted. He could not be more familiar with that look. It was the look of fifteen years ago. How could that look be so lifelike again?
While the sky was filled with danger, Shen Jingyang thought of the fifth hidden spirit. How similar was Yun Jiuchang's gaze to his? They were clearly the same person.
