Ask about the Immortal Way

"This, accidents are inevitable in the world..."

The young master was speechless for a moment, laughed dryly, and glanced at Ji Qiong and the other two who were fleeing, "Compared to them, we can be called lucky. These two are the unlucky ones. They are probably in the route of the big beast's action, so they are so panicked."

Qin Sang stared at the source of the pressure, then looked at Ji Qiong and the other two, and found some unusual signs, and said: "They should not be the target of the big beast..."

While speaking, the two tried their best to hide and retreated carefully.

They didn't know the strength of the beast in the fusion period, but they were sure that if they were targeted by the big beast, they would be in danger!

They didn't dare to make any extraordinary moves, for fear of attracting the attention of the big beast.

"They are not qualified to be hunted by the big beast!"

The young master said decisively, "If the big beast attacks casually, you and I will retreat, let alone the two of them!"

Qin Sang nodded secretly. What the young master said was true. If Ji Jian and the other two angered the big beast, they would not even have a chance to escape.

Thinking of this, Qin Sang pondered and said, "At this time, there are probably not many combinations in the holy land that can beat you and me. Even if we gather three or five people, we dare not provoke the big beast. The time is still short, and the masters of the same clan have no time to meet. It is not feasible to organize multiple masters to hunt the big beast together. In this case, who angered the big beast?"

Hearing this, the young master's expression moved slightly, "Unless someone unfortunately fell into the big beast's nest, or was stupid enough to break in by himself, otherwise this big beast may not be angered by someone! The first two situations are almost impossible to happen. Could it be that an unknown change has occurred, prompting the big beast to leave the nest?"

Qin Sang did not comment.

They did not slow down at all, retreating again and again, and both of them closely followed the movements of the great beast.

At this moment, in the far east, a cloud of gray fog was spreading rapidly across the land. Wherever the gray fog passed, it brought the breath of death, and flowers, plants and trees withered one after another, and gray hair grew on them, devouring their lives, and corroded them into a ball of mud in the blink of an eye. No matter whether it was mortal grass or spiritual flowers and trees, none of them were spared.

The beasts living in the path of the gray fog suffered a great disaster, and some were still sleeping in their nests, unaware of the coming of death, and lost their lives in a daze.

They were covered with hair, and their bodies quickly rotted and turned into white bones, turning this place into a dead zone.

"Roar!"

A fierce roar came from the gray fog, and on the surface of a large lake, there were floating rotten bones. The skeletons of these bones were very large, and they must have been very tall and mighty when they were alive.

Among the piles of bones, there was a beast that was only half the size of the bones, but had the same appearance. It had not yet died. It was the only living creature in this area. The aura it exuded was comparable to that of a cultivator in the Void Refining Realm, which might be the reason why it survived.

But the beast was trembling all over, with fear and pain in its eyes. Fear actually overcame its fierce instincts. It suddenly jumped onto the shore and ran wildly, but the power of the gray fog continued to erode it. Fur grew on some parts of its body, which was suppressed by its instinctive power, but soon emerged from other places, causing its figure to stagger and be extremely weird.

At this moment, a huge shadow appeared above the gray fog, covering the void.

Suddenly, something fell from the shadow, and a closer look revealed that it was a giant bird claw.

The bird claw had three toes, and its skin was as rough as a vine, as if a pillar of heaven had fallen from the sky and stepped on the path of the beast's escape.

'Boom! ’

Several peaks were crushed by the bird’s claws, and three long gullies appeared on the ground, leaving a deep claw mark. The bird’s claws were raised, and the ground was dead silent. The beast made no sound and did not even put up a decent resistance, and was trampled to death.

This step seemed to be just a coincidence. The owner of the bird’s claws did not show up from beginning to end, and there was no pause at all. The shadow in the gray fog quickly went away.

…

In the distance.

Qin Sang and the young master confirmed again and again that the big beast was not coming for them, and they dared to rest assured.

“Master Qin, what do you think happened in the big beast’s lair?” The young master thought.

“It’s impossible that another beast will come to kill us,” Qin Sang said.

The young master said, "These great beasts have their own territories and generally will not break into other territories, but it is not common to scare away the great beasts. Maybe there is a hidden opportunity."

After a pause, the young master looked in the direction where Ji Qiong and the others fled and said, "There must be signs of changes in the great beast's nest. They may have seen it."

"Does Brother Si want to capture them?"

Qin Sang also looked up. In order to avoid the great beasts, they did not dare to act rashly and retreated far away. Ji Qiong and the others had disappeared from their sight.

However, knowing the direction where Ji Qiong flew away, it was not difficult to find them again.

"Doesn't that man have an old grudge against Master Qin? Master Qin won't try to stop me, right?"

The young master glanced at Qin Sang, "Master Qin let them go, they won't appreciate it. The battle for the holy land will ultimately come down to the battle between the Heaven Department and the Water Department. Master Qin got in with the help of the Mirage Jue of our You Clan, which means he has the mark of the Heaven Department engraved on him. Once the masters of the Water Department meet Master Qin, they will never show mercy to Master Qin unless there are greater benefits to attract them and temporarily form an alliance with Qin."

Qin Sang already knew these principles without the young master explaining them to him. The so-called holy land training will ultimately be inseparable from the battle between the Water Department and the Heaven Department.

But Qin Sang only had a brief understanding, so as not to accidentally violate taboos, and did not intend to participate.

These things had little to do with him as an outsider. No matter how precious the treasure was, it might not be suitable for a foreign cultivator. Even if he could get it, it would be difficult to take it out in public.

The identity disguised with the power of the elixir would be exposed once they fought.

Qin Sang's purpose of entering the holy land was very clear, to meet Liuli as soon as possible. If everything went well, he could sit on the sidelines and wait for the opportunity that suited him to appear, and then take action.

He was worried that if he took action against Ji Jian now, it would attract the big beast, and there might even be a more terrifying existence behind the big beast.

The young master knew what Qin Sang was worried about, and said: "We might as well follow them quietly first and wait until we are in a safe area before taking action. There won't be too many cultivators in the same area, so we are not afraid of being preempted by others."

Qin Sang nodded, and the two immediately changed direction and quietly looked for it.

…

In a valley,

Ji Qiong and another master of the Quanfeng Clan were still in fear. Ji Qiong stared at the outside of the valley, while his companion was concentrating on sensing.

“How is it?” Ji Qiong couldn’t help but ask. His cultivation was inferior, and his spiritual perception was not as sharp as his companion’s.

“The pressure has gone far away,” the companion opened his eyes and said softly.

Ji Qiong felt relieved, but couldn't help complaining: "Fortunately, it's not coming for us! How could we be so unlucky that we encountered a beast that looks like a holy realm just after entering the holy land!"

The companion sighed: "I don't know why the beast left its nest, we just suffered an unexpected disaster! When we escaped, we left too many traces, and I don't know if the beast will return. It's not advisable to stay here for a long time, let's leave as soon as possible."

"Okay!" Ji Qiong nodded repeatedly, "The sooner we meet up with Master Quan, the better!"

The companion glanced at him and said: "Are you not going to get the elephant soul sand? If you refine the elephant soul sand, you should be able to break through the middle stage, and we will be safer walking in the holy land."

"Confirm the direction first, if it's on the way, try to get the elephant soul sand, otherwise, meet up with Master Quan and ask for help," Ji Qiong said. This beast taught him a lesson, and he felt safe only when he was with Master Quan.

"Master Quan really values ​​you!"

A trace of envy flashed in the companion's eyes, and his figure flashed, fleeing out of the valley.

Ji Qiong also used his body skills to catch up, but just as he flew out of the valley, the surroundings suddenly became dark. The holy land also had a clear distinction between day and night, just like the outside world. It was daytime now, but suddenly it turned into night.

The mountains and rivers on the earth disappeared out of thin air, and he was pulled into an endless starry sky, surrounded by bright stars and countless stars suspended.

The familiar scene made Ji Qiong stunned, bringing back his unpleasant memories, and then he felt incredible.

"How is it possible! That person is either a human or a demon, how could he appear here, could it be..."

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

However, Ji Qiong's reaction was not affected, and he threw out a black seed the moment he fell into the sword formation. It was almost a reappearance of the old scene. Ji Qiong tried to use this treasure to break the sword formation and almost died.

The vines took root and sprouted, and branches were pulled out. They looked like spirit snakes before, but now they looked like giant pythons, with far more power than before. Moreover, this time he did not let the vines occupy the sword formation, but surrounded himself, layer upon layer, to form a solid barrier, with self-protection as the first priority.

However, Ji Qiong soon found something wrong.

In the last sword formation, there were only two stars in the west and south. Now the east is also shining with stars, and only the north is still a chaotic nebula.

This means that the enemy's strength is also increasing!

What shocked Ji Qiong even more was that he used his spiritual ear magic with all his strength, and his ears trembled constantly, but he could not sense the existence of his companions.

Before entering the holy land, he and his companions worked together to sacrifice a treasure, which was controlled by his companions. Even if he was trapped, his companions could contact him through this treasure, and the two of them would jointly activate this treasure to defeat the enemy.

Now his companions had no reaction. Didn't he even have the opportunity to sacrifice this treasure, or was his companion trapped to death?

The other party must have traveled with a companion, and the other person might be a master of the Siyou clan. What if the companion is not a match for that one...

The more Ji Qiong thought about it, the more horrified he felt. Recalling the scenes of the past, if he had broken through the middle stage, he might have had the strength to fight, but now he had no confidence in defeating Qin Sang.

Those who can cultivate to this level are rarely indecisive, not to mention that Ji Qiong had suffered a great loss at the hands of Qin Sang.

With an ominous premonition in his heart, Ji Qiong no longer hesitated. Before the power of the sword formation was truly launched, his whole body suddenly surged with blood. His skin turned blood red, blood oozing out from his pores, and his body turned into a blood gourd.

‘Boom! ’

With a loud bang, Ji Qiong's body actually exploded, and blood, flesh and internal organs flew everywhere.

He had a body destroyed by Qin Sang, but that was passive, but now he was actively self-destructing. With his cultivation, if he lost his body, it would cost him a lot to recover it. Last time, he was rewarded by Master Quan, which was a blessing in disguise. This time, his self-explosion might affect his breakthrough plan.

But things should be prioritized. As long as he can escape now and get the Elephant Soul Sand, he will be able to break through one day.

Therefore, Ji Qiong immediately exploded his body. The blood and minced meat contained amazing power, like a blood cloud, exploding in the starry sky, dyeing the starlight blood-red, and the vines turned into countless blood pythons, pouncing on the stars with their fangs and claws.

At the same time that the blood cloud rushed into the sword formation, a white light flashed at the position where Ji Qiong was, and a naked little man appeared.

Ji Qiong directly showed the man in his ear on the spot. He did not try to rush out of the sword formation, but remained motionless, opened his mouth, raised his head to the sky, and let out a long howl.

The whistling sound was high-pitched and contained strange power. It caused invisible fluctuations in the void and spread rapidly. At this time, Xingkong had just been hit by the blood cloud, and Xiao Sheng took advantage of the situation to break through the sword formation blockade.

Qin Sang saw Ji Qiong's every move and understood his intentions. He couldn't help but secretly praise this person for his ruthlessness and decisiveness. He realized something was wrong, decisively blew himself up, and tried to attract the big murderer with his roar.

Once Ji Xiao succeeds, he and the young master will definitely give up the operation, and Ji Xiao will have a glimmer of hope.

If you can't escape, it won't hurt if you can die with the enemy.

Unfortunately, Ji Xiao didn't know what kind of enemy they were facing.

Qin Sang looked at Ji Qiong coldly without making any move. Just when the whistle was about to break through the blockade and resound throughout the world, a cold snort sounded.

"He's a character!"

A furry palm appeared in the sky, like a bear's paw, as big as a mountain, and it slapped it down hard. With a palm, he scattered the waves caused by the roar, and then grabbed him with Ji Xiao's horrified eyes.

Ji Xiao's ending is already doomed.

Qin Sang withdrew his gaze and looked outside the formation.

In order to quickly decide the battle, he and the young master divided the work in advance, and finally selected Ji Xiao and planned to capture him alive, which was why he had such twists and turns.

The young master brought the Wuding Bajitu in this time, and another person was trapped in the picture. During the battle with King Lu, the power of Wuding Bajitu was damaged, but it was still a rare treasure.

Qin Sang no longer paid attention to the battle here, put away the sword formation, and rushed into the treasure map.

Not long after, the two quietly left the valley and fled into the distance without looking back. They did not stop until they could hardly feel the pressure of the evil.

The young master successfully captured Ji Qiong alive and took him aside for questioning.

Qin Sang waited for a while and then heard the young master say: "We guessed right, something happened to the big evil's lair. This person once saw a ray of light erupting from the place where the big evil came. I can be sure that it was not another big evil chasing it. ”

"Fellow Taoist priest, do you want to go and have a look?"

Qin Sang asked in a deep voice.

He left his name in the Taixu Golden Book, and he must do his best to help the Si Huang and try to avoid unnecessary complications. However, the young master is a close confidant of the Si Huang, so he is not in a hurry, and he is not worried about delaying important events.

"Isn't Zhenren Qin curious about what could frighten away the evil? According to past experience, it may be a secret palace that suddenly appears in the world, or it may be a passage out of the Holy Land in the future. No matter which one, it is not to be missed. If We don't even dare to take a look, why are we here?" the young master asked.
