Number one swordsman

Xuetu Yaoshan, the top of a small hill shrouded in blood mist.

"here we go again"

Mu Xi sighed lightly.

The intermittent whispers seemed to have a strange and terrifying power, like an invisible blade that ruthlessly slashed into the soul, causing severe pain like tearing.

Mu Xi, who has long been experienced, immediately abandoned perception and used secret methods to protect his soul.

But even so, I still felt a little bored.

Without hesitation, he took out a crystal clear fiery red jade pendant and held it in his palm.

Immediately, a warm current surged through the whole body, dispelling the discomfort in the whole body.

"If it weren't for this 'Linxue Jade Pendant', it would be really hard to hear this voice."

Mu Xi murmured.

He is dressed in white as snow, plump and handsome, with bright stars and shadows flowing between his eyes opening and closing, his thin and straight figure is as tall as a pine tree.

"How are you?"

Mu Xi turned her head and looked at a middle-aged man on the side.

"It's still bearable."

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

He has swallow jaws and a tiger beard, and is dressed in a black robe. His figure is extremely tall, and a look of pain appears on his resolute cheeks carved with knives and axes.

"Ha, if it is seen by the disciples of Xingya Academy, they admire and respect Lord Puyi the most, and at this moment they show a painful appearance like constipation, I am afraid that they must be sad."

Mu Xi laughed heartlessly.

The tall man in the black robe is Pu Yi, the deputy head of Xingya Academy, one of the top ten university palaces in the world.

Being ridiculed like this, Pu Yi couldn't get angry, shook his head and smiled wryly.

Mu Xi looks to be around 20 years old, but Pu Yi dare not be disrespectful.

Because this young man well-dressed in snow is King Zhenyue, one of the nine kings with surnames outside the Great Zhou Dynasty!

At the age of 20, he stepped into the realm of a master, and at the age of 23, he proved the Taoism of Xiantian Wuzong, and was canonized as king by the current emperor of Zhou.

In the past, among the nine kings with foreign surnames, Yuliu Wang Yueshichan was the youngest king.

She became a Daoist master at the age of 15, entered the realm of Xiantian Wuzong at the age of 17, and was crowned king at the age of 19.

But now, among the nine kings with foreign surnames, the youngest is Mu Xi, who is five years younger than King Yuliu.

Although when it comes to record, talent and cultivation, it seems to be inferior to King Yuliu.

But no one dared to underestimate this young man.

After all, a 23-year-old Wang with a different surname is enough to embarrass most of the older generation of masters in this world!

"Little prince, at this point, you should tell me, what are we going to do when we come to the Blood Tea Demon Mountain this time?"

Pu Yi endured the pain and said.

Mu Xi thought for a while, and said: "According to the information I have received, there is a mysterious ancient ruin buried deep in the Blood Tea Monster Mountain, and it is very likely that there is a heavy treasure sealed in it."

"Mysterious ruins?"

Pu Yi couldn't help being stunned, "No wonder people from Kongtong Academy and Luyang Academy also came, so that's why they came here."

"They are not the only ones here."

There were strands of starlight in Mu Xi's eyes, and said, "I have a hunch that this time the Blood Tea Demon Mountain will be very lively."

There was a hint of expectation in the voice.

Soon, the intermittent whispering disappeared.

Both Ning Sihua and Shen Jiusong heaved a sigh of relief.

When they saw Su Yi standing there as if nothing had happened, the two couldn't help but startled, this guy has not been affected?

"Fellow Daoist, did you notice something?"

Ning Sihua was thoughtful.

Su Yi said calmly: "If my guess is correct, the weird murmur just now should be the fluctuation released by the power of a forbidden formation."

"The fluctuation of the power of the forbidden array?"

Ning Sihua's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "In the opinion of fellow Taoists, what grade should this forbidden formation be, and what kind of realm is it made by?"

Su Yi shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, but what is certain is that this forbidden formation is most likely located in the depths of the Blood Tea Monster Mountain, and the cultivation of the person who arranges this formation should not be weaker than the spiritual level. Cultivation."

Spirit monk?

Ning Sihua was shocked.

The road of practice is divided into four stages: Martial Dao, Yuan Dao, Ling Dao, and Xuan Dao.

The four realms of martial arts are called the ordinary realm.

Only those who have entered the path of Yuan Dao can be called monks, and they can eat rosy clouds and drink dew without eating grains.

The road to Yuandao is divided into three realms: "Bigu", "Yuanfu" and "Juxing".

On the Cangqing Continent, those who can enter the path of Yuan Dao are already called land gods, and they are like gods in the eyes of ordinary people.

In the entire Great Zhou territory, there are only a handful of land gods.

Most of them are distributed in places such as the Ten University Palaces, the Imperial Palace, Qianlong Jianzong, and Yujing City.

And Lingdao is above Yuandao!

Those who step into the spiritual path are also called "big monks", and they are divided into three realms: "spiritual transformation", "spiritual appearance" and "spiritual wheel".

Let alone in the territory of the Great Zhou, even on the vast and boundless Cangqing Continent, it is extremely rare for people to enter the spiritual path.

As far as Ning Sihua knew, there were only some vague rumors related to spiritual monks in the territory of the real practice country "Big Xia" in the Cangqing Continent.

Right now, in the depths of the Blood Tea Monster Mountain, there seems to be a mysterious forbidden formation arranged by spiritual monks. How can Ning Sihua not be surprised?

Shen Jiusong was a little confused, and said: "Dare to ask Mr. Su, what is spiritual cultivation?"

Su Yi said casually: "A cultivation path above Yuan Dao."

Shen Jiusong froze for a moment, then gasped, his scalp numb.

For a prince like him, it is naturally clear that the land gods are monks who have set foot on the path of Yuan Dao.

But it was the first time he heard that there is a higher way beyond Yuan Dao! !

He subconsciously looked at Ning Sihua, but saw that the latter's expression was normal, obviously he knew this secret already.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel his heart churn, and then he suddenly realized that whether it was Ning Sihua next to him or this young master Su who was only 17 years old, there might be secrets in him that he couldn't understand!

"Let's go."

Su Yi didn't want to waste any more time, and went straight forward.

The group immediately took action.

Along the way, they still encountered waves of monsters from time to time. Although it was more troublesome to kill them, they still could not threaten them.

Moreover, seeing the animal skin map drawn by Wu Linghou Chen Zheng, they avoided many miasma-covered and poisonous fog-filled areas along the way.

Until another three hours later.

Shen Jiusong was already showing signs of fatigue, exhausting a lot of energy.

Along the way, he was almost the only one who hunted and killed monsters, and Ning Sihua would occasionally help out.

As for Su Yi, he has always held his hands behind his back, and has never hunted down a monster.

It's not that you don't want to help, and it's not that you're lazy.

Rather, he was accumulating strength and waiting for monsters above the eighth level to appear.

But until now, only a dozen seventh-level monsters have been seen along the way, and no eighth-level monsters have been seen at all.

This made Su Yi a little speechless.

"Let's take a break for a while, and I will kill the enemy on the next road."

Ning Sihua spoke in a clear voice.

Shen Jiusong felt relieved immediately, and did not refuse. He took out a bottle of elixir and began to replenish the consumed strength.

Su Yi stood on a rock and looked around.

I saw that the sky was covered with thick red blood mist, and looking around, there were strands of scarlet mist floating in the void between the nearby mountains and rivers, making the world dark and dull.

"Unfortunately, the elixirs I saw along the way were all contaminated by the evil spirit of blood, so I couldn't pick them up and use them."

Su Yi felt a little regretful.

Not only the elixir, but the bodies of the monsters encountered along the way were also corroded by those bloody forces, and the usable spiritual materials on their bodies were also polluted, making them worthless.

Withdrawing his gaze, Su Yi took out the wicker chair from Mo Yupei, lay lazily on it, and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

Seeing this scene, Ning Sihua couldn't help laughing, this guy is too good at enjoying himself, and he even brought a wicker chair with him

Time ticks by.

An hour later, Shen Jiusong had recovered his strength, and the group was about to set off.

Suddenly, a muffled thunderous roar resounded through the sky——

At this moment, the entire Xuetu Demon Mountain seemed to tremble, the mountains and rivers shook, and the rocks and vegetation trembled.

Immediately afterwards, the manic and restless roar of monsters resounded continuously, resembling panic and madness.

Rumble!

Just like an earthquake, the dull roar shakes the ground, and an unknown number of boulders roll down from the mountain, smashing the trees down, and filling the air with smoke and dust.

Su Yi immediately got up from the rattan chair, glanced around, felt a little, and said:

"This vibrating force seems to come from the depths of the Blood Tea Demon Mountain. Could it be that, five days ago, Wu Linghou Chen Zheng decided to enter the Blood Tea Demon Mountain alone after he noticed such a change? Shan Cha Tan?"

Ning Sihua nodded and said, "It's very possible."

"It's getting more and more interesting. There should be a terrifying power sealed under the Blood Tea Demon Mountain, and the strange murmur we heard before came from a forbidden formation."

Su Yi's eyes were deep, and he deduced, "There is only one possibility, and that is the forbidden formation deep in the Blood Tea Demon Mountain, which is arranged to seal that terrifying power!"

"In other words, the recent anomaly in Xuetu Monster Mountain is most likely due to a change in the sealed power deep underground, trying to escape from the suppression of that forbidden formation!"

Both Ning Sihua and Shen Jiusong couldn't help being moved. They never expected that Su Yi would have such keen insight and knowledge.

From that weird murmur, he deduced that it was a fluctuation of the power of a forbidden formation.

But now, from the dull thunderous roar, he infers that there is a terrifying power sealed under the Blood Tea Demon Mountain.

Moreover, it was further deduced from this that the forbidden formation was prepared to suppress that terrifying force!

And all of this was beyond Ning Sihua's and Shen Jiusong's thinking, let alone making inferences from it.

How could this not surprise the two of them?

For a moment, both of them couldn't help but rejoice that Su Yi was invited to participate this time!

Otherwise, they probably wouldn't even notice that there would be such a mystery hidden in these abnormal scenes and movements.

"Fellow Daoist, do you know what the sealed power is?"

Ning Sihua couldn't help asking.
