After 100 years of leatherworking, I have become a giant in the magic sect

Chapter 97 96. The current situation of Jianmen, the "blind box" that no one dares to open (2.6K words - please subscribe)

His identity as a sword cultivator of Nanwu Jianmen is a good cover.

In the past half year or so, Song Yan's "Grandma Fox" shadow puppet has entered three secret realms with this identity and met many casual cultivators, but has not been able to find blood suitable for Song Yan.

But it wasn't completely undiscovered. At least in some daily interactions, Song Yan heard something about the "Ancient Teleportation Array".

A monk told him that a long time ago, the north and south of this continent were connected. The so-called "Wu, Shu, and Wei" three kingdoms were just a small country in the south of this continent that split off. In the past, there seemed to be a teleportation array connecting the north and south, but now that it has been so long, nothing can be determined.

This piece of information can be regarded as providing Song Yan with a possible direction of the "ancient teleportation array" - the north.

He didn't know where the north was, but there was a high probability that he had already crossed the mountain and sea monster country.

The three kingdoms of "Wu, Shu and Wei" are a "dead end", they either go to sea, but no one knows what is overseas;

Either go north through the "Lone Smoke Wasteland", and Grandma Fox was invited by King Wei from there. Obviously, that direction leads directly to the Mountain and Sea Monster Kingdom.

so.

Song Yan began to study this ancient teleportation array again.

Jiang Palace could still hide it, but facing the two-headed Pilan man-eating arrogant insect in the Purple Mansion Realm, he felt that there was no way he could hide it at all.

The Purple Mansion Realm was a realm that he didn't understand at all.

Although it is necessary for him to become stronger, he must also prepare a way out for himself.

After knowing the news, he separated the two shadow puppets.

Grandma Fox continued to do what a sword cultivator should do, helping him find more secret realms.

The other one began to secretly head towards the ancient teleportation array.

After traveling for more than a month, Song Yan finally found the formation in a secret cave southeast of Nanwu Jianmen according to Grandma Hu's map.

The four words "A long time ago" are indeed true.

Just the three layers of vines outside the secret cave are enough for people to miss this place, not to mention that this is a barren mountain with no mystery, a place that even woodcutters and hunters will not reach.

Song Yan lit the fire stick and walked sideways through the gaps between the vines as a fox demon shadow puppet, walking in the dark cave. When he got deep, he saw that it was indeed something special.

The whole array was about the size of a garden landscaped pond, with a distance of more than twenty steps up and down. There were six stone tablets about seven feet in length on each side, with an array pattern in the center.

Even after countless years, the formation pattern is still new, and the thick and fine textures are all intact. It is obvious that the stone material used to build the formation is extraordinary.

only.

Song Yan frowned slightly, and his figure flashed, landing in the northwest direction of the formation.

There, there was a drag mark as thick as an adult's arm!

This drag mark is like an eraser that has erased part of the array pattern.

Song Yan looked forward along the drag mark, and saw a rusty broken sword standing at the end of the drag mark.

It seems that this formation was not deliberately destroyed, but was affected by a certain fight, and then was completely scratched by a broken sword, thus destroying the formation.

Song Yan stepped forward and grabbed the broken sword, and circulated his profound energy a little. The broken sword seemed to be a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing his power. As it absorbed, its surface began to shake, and the rust spots on the surface were quickly shaken away. , but Song Yan only felt that the profound energy of his shadow puppet was almost absorbed, so he hurriedly stopped, threw the broken sword into the storage bag, and then continued to check the teleportation array.

Obviously, if you want to restore this ancient teleportation array, you must at least find a way to repair the "array pattern".

'Broken sword.'

‘The remaining formation.’

‘It’s time to go to Nanwu Jianmen to have a look. ’

Although Song Yan was also worried that Grandma Fox would be seen through, after all, shadow puppets could not truly perform sword-wielding skills. Grandma Fox's shadow puppets relied entirely on the strength, power, and speed of their own bodies to use the sword. But now he had to go to Nanwu Jianmen.

Before, he was worried about other people's secret skills of tracking through shadow puppets, but now, firstly, he was in a secret realm, and secondly, he didn't care so much anymore.

Less than half a month later.

Nanwu Jianmen.

The fairy island is hidden in the clouds and mist. Although the peaks are not high, they are beautiful and graceful. The mountains are like a freehand brushwork in the sea of ​​clouds and mist, and there is a certain charm in the ups and downs.

clatter.

The bamboo pennant stopped at the shore, the bow of the boat sank slightly, the water split into two parts, and there were a few sobs between ups and downs.

Song Yan tied the cable and stepped onto Guanwu Island, the outermost part of Nanwu Jianmen.

As soon as he got ashore, a disciple of Nanwu Jianmen came over. When he saw his appearance, he was surprised and happy: "Senior Brother Bai! Are you still alive?!"

Although Song Yan searched for souls, he only had a vague impression of who the disciple in front of him was. Fortunately, for more than half a year, he had been getting used to Bai Xiuhu's temperament and way of speaking. At this time, he skillfully imitated his tone and said with emotion: "It's a long story."

The disciple sighed: "Many things have happened in these years. My classmates who practiced swordplay together suddenly disappeared one by one. Some were known to be dead, while others are missing."

Song Yan suddenly asked: "Has the headmaster come out of seclusion?"

The disciple let out a long sigh and said nothing.

Song Yan didn't ask. In fact, he heard many rumors while he was out during this period.

What did the rumor say: "The headmaster of Nanwu Jianmen has been in seclusion a few years ago. He did not show up for such an important battle as the Battle of Hantan Valley because the headmaster has long since passed away."

In fact, the reason why Nanwu Jianmen was able to confront the Puppet Sect was entirely because of this leader.

This headmaster is known as "Shui Bo Jian Huang". He has the innate five elements of water and sits in the rivers, lakes and seas, which can be said to be in an invincible position.

A few years ago, Shui Bo Jian Huang closed himself in Luoxia Bamboo Island, the deepest part of Jianmen, to break the "late stage of Jiang Palace" realm and has not come out since then.

Gu Huangzi is as wary of him as he is of "Zhang Han" who sits in the center of the evil land.

This kind of person who is strong in himself and has the advantage of time and place, is definitely not to be provoked when fighting in his home field.

No one knows what blood Shui Bo Jian Huang used to make the "third middle palace", but it is very likely that he took the risk of taking Jiang Palace Pill in order to strengthen his blood. And the Jiang Palace Pill is also likely to have residual toxins.

No one can say whether he can survive the difficulties.

In order to prevent anyone from disturbing the headmaster, the elder strictly forbade anyone to approach Luoxia Bamboo Island.

Even now. It is still the same.

However, the rumors that are spreading outside are really terrible.

Song Yan himself was not sure whether this was the truth or just a rumor from the Puppet Sect, or whether it was both a rumor and the truth, so he asked this question after landing on the island.

But since he didn't get a definite answer, he had a rough idea in his mind.

Today's "Shui Bo Jian Huang" is a "blind box".

The Great Elder or any high-level officials of Nanwu Jianmen dare not open this blind box.

As long as the blind box is not opened, Shui Bo Jian Huang is in a dead end, and Nanwu Jianmen may have a powerful late-stage Jiang Palace master at any time.

If it is opened, it will be like a gambler with red eyes, pushing all the chips in front of him forward and going all-in.

Song Yan walked forward a few more steps, and saw another disciple hurriedly walking in the mist. The disciple also recognized him, and clasped his fists from a distance and shouted: "Junior Brother Bai."

Song Yan recognized this man, and smiled and said in return: "Senior Brother Su."

The disciple nodded, then flicked his sleeves, took out a jade bottle, put some powder in it, and sprinkled it on Song Yan's head, saying sternly: "Junior Brother, if you have nothing to hide, don't move!"

Song Yan did not move, his expression was calm.

The powder fell, icy and cold, and it felt like it was about to tear his illusion apart.

However, the illusion of Grandma Fox was not comparable to that of the little fox cubs after all.

The powder could not be torn apart.

Senior Brother Su also breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained: "In the previous battle, the Puppet Sect eliminated many fox demons, and now they have made a lot of fox demon shadow puppets.

Those shadow puppets are very good at illusion. If you don't sprinkle them with this illusion-eliminating powder, it is impossible to recognize them.

However, I know that my junior brother is definitely not a fox demon shadow puppet, otherwise he would not come to my junior brother so unprepared."

Song Yanqi asked: "Why?"

Senior Brother Su whispered: "That kind of people usually walk together, one is a fox demon shadow puppet, and the other is a puppet sect leather master, and they can't be too far apart. Junior brother returned alone, how could he be Fox demon shadow puppet? But Brother is just taking insurance. "

Song Yan said respectfully: "Brother, you are cautious."

Brother Su waved his hand and said: "Go back to your cave quickly. Many major events have happened in the sect. You may be transferred to the front line again in a few days."

Song Yan said: "Since I fled last year, my mind has been polluted. Now I have figured it out. Only by killing demons and eliminating monsters can I cleanse my heart!"

After speaking, he coughed heavily a few times and smiled bitterly: "It's a pity. I am not healed from my serious injuries. I am afraid I am powerless."

Brother Su comforted: "It's good to have a heart, don't think about anything else."
