In an inconspicuous crack in the valley, jumping fire illuminated the entire cave.

A few split branches were placed around the bonfire, and a few slightly worn clothes were inserted on the branches. The dripping water quickly became clear under the scorching of the bonfire.

A simple stove was built around several stones on both sides of the bonfire. In the center of the stove, a half-sized bamboo tube, about the size of a hand, rolled with a rich aroma of meat, making people unable to keep their index fingers from moving.

The figure of a boy was sitting quietly on the other side of the bonfire, with a fire reflected in his eyes, and he rubbed the sharp cluster of iron feather arrows in his hand, looking very worried.

This young man is Chang Xi.

Chang Xi sighed long.

Although he had already attached great importance to this trial of the 20,000-mile path to immortal cultivation, when he truly left the familiar village and entered a strange environment, he realized that this trial was much more difficult than he had imagined.

After leaving the village, he was penniless and had become a common place for wind, dining and dew. He had to look for streams and rivers when he was thirsty, but it was easy to solve the problem of hunger. The most delicacies in the mountains and forests were wild game. Although he was young, his archery skills were no less than experienced hunters.

Whenever he hunts prey, he will cut the pieces of meat into dozens of thin layers with a knife on his own, layer by layer, neatly spread the slices of meat in half of the bamboo tube, and slowly simmer it with stream water. When the broth in the bamboo tube rolls open, add some salt grains that he usually doesn't want to use, which is a rare delicacy.

After drinking all the broth in the bamboo tube in one breath, Chang Xi felt as if her fatigue was wiped out. After packing up half of the bamboo tube on the stone stove, Chang Xi stood there silently for a while, bent down to pick up a stove stone that was still slightly hot, walked to the edge of the cave wall, and carved a line of crooked words heavily.

Sixty-seven.

This was the sixty-seventh day he left the village.

"It has been more than two months now, and I have only walked nearly a thousand miles away. Considering the possible errors in the direction, there may be even fewer. In this way, it will not reach Qingyun Mountain in three years. There is still about half a year before the beginning of winter. If the mountain is closed due to heavy snow, it would be bad..." After throwing away the stove stone in his hand, Chang Xi slowly sat down against the wall of the cave, looking at the burning "crackling" bonfire, murmured to himself.

As the night gradually became deeper, Chang Xi shrank his stiff neck and took the warm clothes roasted by the bonfire and covered his body. In the end, he couldn't resist the tiredness that came. In this cold and quiet cave, he secretly held the arrow in his hand and fell asleep.

...

The northwest of Huizhou.

In the night sky that is out of reach for ordinary people, the fierce wind is whistling everywhere. Looking down, the mortal towns are all flashing with bright lights, so gorgeous.

At this moment, an amazing scene appeared.

In the originally quiet night sky, spiritual power rioted without warning. A space was shattered like a mirror. With just a few breaths, the broken space suddenly collapsed, and the sharp wind around the broken space was instilled into the space, making the space around it become increasingly unstable. In the extreme depth of the broken space, there seemed to be a rippling light as broken as a candle, gradually becoming brighter.

"Um?!"

In a secret room in Qingyun Mountain tens of thousands of miles away, Qinglan, who was breathing cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes. As his eyes opened, the light in his eyes was as solid as possible, causing some cracks to appear on the wall of the indestructible secret room.

Qinglan stood up slowly, his face was extremely solemn, his figure became blurred, and the next moment he appeared on the top of Qingyun Mountain.

"Master!"

"Master!"

Two figures with amazing auras of a man and a woman also reached their peak at an extremely fast speed.

The man was wearing an elegant moon-colored robe with his pretty face, which looked like a gentle scholar in the mortal world. Next to him was a beautiful palace dress, and the brilliant red palace robe made him look particularly charming. Both of them stood behind the head and said respectfully.

"You two are on duty tonight?" Qinglan asked lightly.

"That's right." The two people behind him clasped their fists.

When Qinglan heard this, he did not look back at the two of them. A powerful divine thought condensed from the sea of ​​consciousness and swept towards the crack in the space thousands of miles away.

Seeing the head sect in front of him activate his divine thoughts without saying a word and headed towards the distance, the two realized that the head sect might have discovered something late at night, and then they also activated their divine sense to spread towards the direction of the head sect's detection.

"Such a huge space crack?! It's hundreds of feet wide. The aura in this crack...is the demon clan?"

The elegant man who was still calm had already stirred up a huge wave in his heart. Those who could tear out the space crack of such momentum must have extremely profound cultivation. Behind this space crack is the top-level monk of the demon clan, the intention of coming here late at night will be obvious!

"The Sect Protection Sword Formation, activate with all your strength! All Qingyun disciples are ready to face the enemy!"

Qinglan's cold and unemotional voice instantly resounded throughout Qingyun Mountain.

"yes!"

The elegant man and the woman in the palace dress looked at each other and nodded slightly. There was a flash of light in their palms, and they each took out half a black and white yin and yang fish jade key. The jade key of their two slowly rose in their palms, and then they formed a complete jade key.

"Sword Protecting Sect, Start!"

As the two of them heard the same sound, blue sword energy containing terrifying power gushed out from various places in Qingyun Mountain. The sword energy in the sky gradually gathered into a huge blue shield to protect the entire Qingyun Mountain. The powerful floating sword energy condensed into countless substantial giant swords in the air to form a super-large sword formation covering the entire sect.

A burst of sharp aura that made people scalp tingle came from the sword formation, and the huge blue shield in the air rose with dazzling blue light, rendering the entire night sky like daytime.

All the elders in the sect noticed the activation of the Sect Protection Sword Formation and stood behind the head sect from all over the sect. The elegant man turned around and explained the situation to the elders. The elders present were moved, and they all used all their spiritual power to be on guard against the direction of the crack in the void.

"It seems that there is a bright light in the crack, and it seems to be rushing out!" An old man with a thunderous aura was slightly narrowed, and the huge sword box behind him seemed to sense the old man's mood. Straws of violent sword energy flowed out of the sword box.

The light in the crack of the void became more and more obvious. After a while, the light became dazzling like the scorching sun and was unable to look directly at it.

A bad premonition arises in everyone's heart.

The dazzling light ignited into a huge golden fireball and rushed out of the seemingly long void corridor. The lush forests around the void cracks were instantly burned to nothing by this extremely fierce heat wave. The powerful power that was so terrifying that it could not be said to be verbally coming!

"No... impossible! This... pressure...!"

The elders of Qingyun Mountain all looked extremely shocked. Faced with the terrifying pressure that was coming, the elders could no longer maintain their posture in the air, and their spiritual power could not be mobilized at all. They all fell from the ground like dumplings put into pots. Many Qingyun disciples in the shaking sword formation of the sect were pressed directly on the ground by this powerful pressure, and even a finger could not move. The bones all over their bodies were creaking, and the blood was overflowing from their mouths and noses, which was terrible.

The only person who can stand in the air is the head coach.

Qinglan, who looked as pale as paper, struggled to use the body protection sword technique. Every bit of spiritual power was extremely obscure. Under this terrifying heat wave, the body protection spirit shields in front of him, which were densely packed with flowers, melted rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. More than a dozen spiritual flying swords cruising beside him also suffered great spiritual damage and they lost control and fell from the air.

“Above the divine travel…”

Qinglan's mouth was full of bitterness, and the terrifying huge golden fireball in front of him was so powerful that it was far beyond his divine travel realm. The bones and meridians in his body trembled and let out a wail. The original Nascent Soul, who was originally moving in his body, had become dull and dull. The spiritual power in his body was quickly exhausted, and the figure standing in the air seemed to be shaking.

"I want to destroy my Qingyun, even if I am above the sacred tour, I'm too whimsical!"

A trace of determination and extremely deep harshness flashed in Qinglan's eyes. He closed his eyes randomly and moved the obscure spiritual power flow in his body. As his hands turned and changed, mysterious magic runes flowed around him. An extremely fierce and terrifying sword energy gradually woke up in Qinglan's body like a giant beast. When Qinglan opened his eyes again, his deep eyes had turned blood red, and his black pupils turned into strange vertical pupils like sharp swords. Straws of blood-red ripples that were so rich that they could see the naked eye radiated from Qinglan's body to the surroundings.

"Does the head master want to...?! The head master! You must not!"

He noticed that the aura of the head sect in the sky suddenly became like this, and the old man sitting upright seemed to have thought of something extremely terrifying. His face turned pale and shouted loudly at the figure of the head sect.

Qinglan, who had no expression on his face, waved his sleeves violently, and the blood-red sword energy that was as surging as the sea swept across the world. The sound of swords like a giant beast resounded throughout the world. The terrifying pressure actually showed a faint tendency to compete with the power of the huge golden fireball.

Just as Qinglan was about to bite the tip of his tongue and use his essence and blood to further activate the evil sword, an unexpected situation occurred.

The huge golden fireball seemed to have sensed something, and it had originally hit Qingyun Mountain and suddenly turned to the southeast of Qingyun Mountain. In Qinglan's emotionless bloody eyes, the power of the huge golden fireball rapidly declined like a breathless balloon. After flying for only a few thousand miles, the extremely scorching golden fireball disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared. Only the long trace of the burned object on the ground showed the tragedy that had just happened here.

"The whole sect is on guard and will send the elite troops out of the door to the southeast tomorrow to investigate. The elders of Qifeng Peak will take all the injured disciples to heal the wounds, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Abide by the orders of the head of the tutor!"

There were thunders all over Qingyun Mountain, and everyone looked at the stagnant figure standing in the sky with zeal. The huge golden fireball that could block such a terrifying momentum, only the head of Qingyun Mountain had such a way to reach the sky.

Qingyun is lucky!

Qinglan withdrew the tip of his tongue in his teeth without any trace, pressing down the blood boiling like fire in his chest, and the overflowing blood-red sword energy gradually dissipated, and an abnormal pale crawled over his slightly thin face at the moment. Although this unknown terrifying fireball had disappeared, the void crack in the sky quietly healed during the confrontation. But at the moment the fireball disappeared, he clearly captured an extremely thin thing in the golden flame. The moment the fireball disappeared, he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

That thing is obviously not a dead thing. The moment you discover it, you can sense that eagerness even if you are thousands of miles apart.

Although he didn't know what that was or what that thing was anxious about, if he let it go, he might happen again today.

"The troubled times have come after all..."

Qinglan stood there quietly, looking southeastward, still in a daze.
Chapter completed!
