Seeking Immortality
Chapter 8. Outside the mountain.
If Xu Qingfan was awake at this time, he would not believe that the powerful old man in front of him turned out to be the casual and unruly Uncle Liu Huaxiang whom he was familiar with.
Although his face is still old and his figure is still skinny, the terrifying and powerful aura on his body is shocking. It makes people feel that this Liu Huaxiang is a strong man with a long history and a bright future, rather than a man who has left only a trace of the sunset. dying old man.
Perhaps, at this time, there is no Xu Qingfan or Ting'er, and he is no longer the lonely and eccentric Liu Huaxiang, but the great master Li Xuhan! !
But after Liu Huaxiang scared off Xiaobi, he looked at the thatched cottage where Xu Qingfan was and sighed slightly, squinting his eyes and sighing in a low voice: "If God can give me a little more time, I don't have to be so anxious and hasty. Arranged."
Only Liu Huaxiang himself knew that although he had used the "Soul-Destroying Technique" to forcibly stay in the world of the sun, the power in his body was rapidly draining away with his life. This time he would take advantage of Xu Qingfan's retreat to go down the mountain to find what he needed to use the secret technique. In addition to being just in case and saving time, Liu Huaxiang knew that he didn't have much time. Or in another ten or twenty years, his strength will be inferior to that of Xu Qingfan now. That's why he had to prepare everything he could while he still had the strength.
Sighing again, Liu Huaxiang raised his hands, and a colorful ray of light appeared as he raised his hands, quickly surrounding Xu Qingfan's thatched cottage, forming a protective barrier, and then turned his head towards somewhere on the top of Jiuhua Mountain. His eyes widened and he shouted loudly: "Open!!"
Although the voice was not loud, it was extremely powerful, causing the wind and clouds to change, and Xiao Bi beside her to tremble even more.
And with his soft drink, the entire Jiuhua Mountain Peak suddenly began to shake violently. Then somewhere on the top of the Jiuhua Mountain that Liu Huaxiang was looking at just now, the earth cracked, and an unfathomable tunnel suddenly appeared on the top of the Jiuhua Mountain.
This tunnel is extremely deep and huge. Although the sun is high at the moment, the tunnel is still pitch black, making people wonder just how deep the tunnel is. The entrance is so huge that even Xiaobi, who is several feet tall, can easily get in and out.
And this tunnel is exactly the way to go down the mountain that Liu Huaxiang just told Xu Qingfan. Although the "Jiuji Formation" seals the surroundings and the sky of Jiuhua Mountain, it cannot seal the underground of Jiuhua Mountain. The founder of Jiuhua built such a tunnel to prevent his disciples from escaping when Mount Jiuhua was besieged one day.
It is precisely because this tunnel is so secretive and important that Liu Huaxiang must use his magical power to make Ting'er unconscious before calling out the tunnel. After all, only he and Zhang Hualing knew this authentic secret even in Jiuhua Mountain.
It's just that Jiuhua Mountain is about two thousand feet high, has many rocks, and is solid. And it is unimaginable how much effort it took to build such a tunnel at the top of Jiuhua Mountain. Although it is hidden, it is unimaginable.
After the tunnel appeared, Liu Huaxiang made a move with both hands. Ting'er, who had fainted on the ground, immediately floated up and flew into his arms. Then Liu Huaxiang jumped into the tunnel without hesitation, holding Ting'er in his arms.
Seeing Ting'er being taken away by Liu Huaxiang, Xiaobi felt anxious. For a moment, she ignored her fear of Liu Huaxiang and jumped into the tunnel.
As the figures of Liu Huaxiang, Ting'er, and Xiaobi disappeared into the tunnel, the earth shook again. The huge entrance of the tunnel was almost closed, and they quickly disappeared at the top of Jiuhua Mountain.
The cold wind howled. A snowflake blew up, and as Liu Huaxiang and others left, the top of Jiuhua Mountain once again fell into silence. Only one or two phoenix calls could be heard from the thatched cottage where Xu Qingfan was left.
While Xu Qingfan was in retreat, several earth-shaking events occurred in the world of immortality.
First, the newcomer competition that will be held in the world of immortality in less than a year was sabotaged by unknown monks. All the elite disciples of more than ten sects died. Even in the "* Palace" and "Jiuhua Mountain" among the six holy places, there were Disciples were killed or injured.
What's even more terrifying is that the six holy places that host the competition for newcomers are not aware of this at all.
then. Jiuhua Mountain among the Six Holy Lands was attacked by unknown monks. It is said that those unknown monks were the ones who sabotaged the competition for newcomers in the world of immortality before, and the reason why he sabotaged the competition for newcomers was precisely for Mount Jiuhua. But he didn't know who the unknown monk was. He actually single-handedly killed Jiuhua Mountain, one of the six holy places, and severely injured its vitality. In the end, Jiuhua Mountain reluctantly announced that it would be closed indefinitely. Until the vitality is restored.
For this reason, many "smart people" in the world of immortality have even claimed that Mount Jiuhua may permanently withdraw from the world of immortality. Just like they said eight hundred years ago.
As for why the Holy Spirit attacked Mount Jiuhua, all those familiar with the matter were silent, and the entire world of immortality was filled with speculation.
If these two pieces of news are just shocking, then the next three pieces of news are a bit unbelievable.
After the vitality of Mount Jiuhua was severely damaged and the mountain was closed indefinitely, another holy place among the six holy places, the "* Palace", also experienced strange changes three years later. Among the more than forty elders in the palace, thirty of them were actually present. In a short period of time, he suddenly lost all his cultivation, and soon fell into reincarnation due to the depletion of life span. The owner of the "* Palace", Li Tianying, lost his mind and killed his direct disciples and masters with his own hands. More than ten sisters, after suffering this setback, the strength of the "* Palace" lineage was even greater than that of "Jiuhua Mountain". However, before they had time to catch up with Fengshan, the mountain gate was attacked by unknown people, and their strength dropped again. drop.
Since the "* Palace" was only third-rate in the world of immortal cultivation after a series of twists and turns, the other four holy places only provided some help to the "* Palace" and then took back the "Xuanwu Order" held by the "* Palace". Faced with this situation, the "* Palace" with its strength greatly damaged dared to be angry but dared not speak.
Then, after the discussion of the four holy places, the "Xuanwu Order" was given to the "* Sect", whose strength and prestige were second only to the six holy places, and the "*" was officially recognized as the new holy place.
But something even more surprising happened. Not long after becoming the new holy place, the "* Sect" had an internal strife. In the civil strife, the Taoist Jiuze and others who had long enjoyed a high reputation in the world of immortal cultivation were actually detained one after another. Unexpectedly, Deng Tianai, the eldest disciple among the young disciples of the "* Sect", won the support of other * Sect elders and became the new head of the "* Sect".
Almost at the same time, the head of the Qingxu Sect was also overthrown by the elders of the sect. The head of the new land is a person who is unknown, which is another strange story in the world of immortal cultivation.
In addition, the most eye-catching place in the world of immortal cultivation during this period is undoubtedly the "Eight Desolations Palace" which was originally as famous as the "* Sect". Although it is extremely powerful, it is located in a remote area. Therefore, the disciples of the "Eight Desolations Palace" have rarely appeared in the vision of the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation. But in recent days, for some reason, the "Eight Desolations Palace" has found excuses to destroy more than ten immortal cultivation sects. Several of these immortal cultivation sects are quite powerful, but they have no resistance in front of the "Eight Desolations Palace". In several attacks, the reputation of the masters in the "Eight Desolations Palace" can be said to be resounding throughout the world of immortal cultivation. For example, the sixty-four flying generals, or the twelve evil immortals, are all originally unknown cultivators. But the strength they showed is shocking. Coupled with the radiant young disciple Huang Xie and the mysterious eight palace masters in the "Eight Desolations Palace", the strength shown by the Eight Desolations Palace has actually surpassed the six major holy places! !
While the world of immortal cultivation was in chaos, the world of mortals was also in chaos. Several of the most powerful countries in the prosperous Middle-earth were fighting for various reasons. The Sand Clan of the Western Desert began to invade the prosperous Middle-earth. Countless mortals died in the war every day. For a time, it seemed that the entire Shenzhou had gone crazy.
There has always been a saying in the world of immortal cultivation: "The world of immortal cultivation is in chaos. The world of mortals will be in chaos first."
From the changes in the world of immortal cultivation during this period of time, to the wars that have occurred in the world of mortals, and thinking of the legend of the catastrophe that has been circulating in the world of immortal cultivation for tens of thousands of years, all the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation were panicked for a while.
Could it be that the next catastrophe in the world of immortal cultivation will really come as the legend says?
At this time, there are still a full fifty years before the next catastrophe in the legend begins.
The sound of fighting and the sound of pain. The screams, the roars, and countless voices representing the dark side of human beings continue to sound.
The light reflected by the swords under the sunlight, the blood arrows shot out when the swords and guns pierced the human body, and the eyes faintly red because of killing or being killed, this is a battlefield in the mortal world.
Even with Liu Huaxiang's Mahayana cultivation, seeing the melee of hundreds of thousands of people under his feet, countless people died every moment, countless wronged souls flew in the sky, and the sound of crying resounded in his ears. He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, secretly glad that he didn't bring Ting'er with him, otherwise, with Ting'er's soul and body changed by the magic bead, he didn't know what kind of changes would happen when he saw this scene.
The reason why Liu Huaxiang came to this battlefield was to collect wronged souls and blood essence.
Although Xu Qingfan has the characteristics of the phoenix in his body. So he doesn't need to use the wronged souls and blood essence of humans to enhance the vitality of his body. But if you want to perform the secret method for Xu Qingfan, in addition to enhancing vitality. There are many places where wronged souls and blood essence are needed.
For Liu Huaxiang, to perform this secret method, other materials are easy to find no matter how precious they are, but a large number of human wronged souls and blood essence are not so easy to find. He is not Zhang Xusheng, who can destroy a sect or country without hesitation to collect blood essence and wronged souls.
Originally, Liu Huaxiang wanted to find some bandits and mountain bandits in the mortal world to kill and collect the blood essence of wronged souls. Although this is extremely slow, it will not violate the harmony of heaven. However, he did not expect that large-scale wars would break out in various parts of the mortal world soon. The wronged souls and blood essence that were originally a headache were now everywhere, which saved Liu Huaxiang a lot of trouble.
This war lasted for a whole day. When the sky turned from bright to dark, both sides beat drums to withdraw their troops and waited for the next day to continue fighting.
The battlefield, which was originally extremely noisy, also returned to silence after both sides withdrew their troops. Only a few low-level soldiers who were not completely dead and no one cared about them occasionally groaned in pain and despair.
Although it was dark at this time, the ghosts wandering over the battlefield were the most active, and the blood in the countless corpses under his feet had not yet dried. It was the best time to collect the ghosts and blood essence, but Liu Huaxiang still did not take any action. Instead, he hid his figure more secretly in the dark night, as if he was waiting for something.
Sure enough, not long after, more than a dozen purple-clothed people suddenly appeared on the battlefield. If Liu Huaxiang had seen Zhang Xusheng in another outfit, he would definitely be shocked by the outfit of the more than ten purple-clothed people, because these more than ten people, except that there was no gold pattern on the edge of the purple clothes and no rings on their hands, all other outfits were exactly the same as Zhang Xusheng! !
After these purple-clothed people appeared on the battlefield, they immediately took out a blood-red gourd and chanted something. As their lips closed, the battlefield suddenly became turbulent. Driven by the strong wind, the wounds on the dead soldiers suddenly widened, and a large amount of blood gushed out. After gathering together, it turned into a sea of blood and rushed towards the more than ten blood-colored gourds. Those blood-colored gourds seemed small in size. But they easily put the sea of blood into them.
After doing all this, the more than ten purple-clothed people took out a white gourd and chanted something again. Then, the ghosts cried loudly, and the countless wronged souls wandering in the sky were collected by these white gourds.
Until they finished all this, the more than ten purple-clothed people left with satisfaction.
Silently watching the change in front of him, Liu Huaxiang sighed slightly, and began to use his magical powers to collect the few wronged souls and blood essence left on the battlefield.
This is the eighth time Liu Huaxiang has encountered such a situation in the past four years.
When he first learned about the war in the mortal world, Liu Huaxiang was glad that he had saved himself some trouble, but as the war continued to expand, Liu Huaxiang finally realized that something was wrong.
Among the countries involved in the war, some emperors were well-known for their virtue. Why would they start endless wars for trivial matters? And they continued to expand the scale of the war without reason? There was no benefit except wasting money and labor and seriously hurting their own countries, but they still enjoyed it?
It is not surprising that a madman appeared, but if all the emperors in the mortal world became madmen, then things would be very suspicious.
So while collecting blood and wronged souls, Liu Huaxiang was also constantly investigating and visiting, but was shocked to find that the kings of the major empires involved in the war were all affected by an evil method that had been lost for many years, and the sects responsible for secretly protecting the royal families of the major empires, for some reason, did not inform the six major holy places of the news at all.
Originally, Liu Huaxiang was going to personally inform the major holy places of the news he had obtained. But he suddenly heard about the changes in the * Sect, Qingxu Sect and other sects. He keenly noticed a hint of abnormality from them. He always felt that the changes in the major holy places over the years would not be so simple, so he did not dare to act rashly. Instead, he personally explored the root causes of these changes.
Then not long after. Liu Huaxiang discovered this group of mysterious purple-clothed people. Whenever a battlefield ended, they would quietly appear and collect a large amount of blood and wronged souls, but they did not know what purpose they were used for.
More importantly, looking at the uniform clothing and actions of these purple-clothed people, they were obviously cultivators from the same sect and organization. So far, Liu Huaxiang has seen more than fifty purple-clothed people with different characteristics. Each purple-clothed person has the cultivation of the Jindan period. Such strength is far beyond the major holy places. And with such strength, Liu Huaxiang has never heard of such a powerful organization. Looking at their strange actions, the conspiracy hidden behind them is frightening.
If Liu Huaxiang was in his prime, he would have captured all the more than ten purple-clothed people and asked them what kind of organization they were and what the purpose of their various actions was. Unfortunately, Liu Huaxiang's strength had greatly decreased at this time, and he was powerless to do this. Although he had secretly tracked them many times, those purple-clothed people acted closely, and there were masters to support them. Liu Huaxiang did not find out the slightest inside story in the past few years.
Finally, after collecting the remaining blood and wronged souls in his hands, Liu Huaxiang took a deep look at the more than ten purple-clothed people who disappeared in the sky, and then sighed secretly, his voice full of worry.
Then, his figure gradually disappeared in the darkness.
At the same time, the Xuanye Hall in the Eight Desolate Hall was brightly lit at this time, but it was extremely quiet inside. If you go in and take a closer look, you will find that two people are spying there at this time.
One of them was tall, with red hair, bare chest and back, and golden rings on his limbs. He was the master of the "Eight Desolations Palace", Mantian. He was sitting quietly on the main seat in the palace with a calm face.
The other one was much younger. Although his face was delicate, he had a hint of evil charm. He was wearing a Bagua feather robe. He was Deng Tianai, who had become the leader of the "* Sect"! !
But Deng Tianai, who had always been arrogant, did not have any arrogance on his face at this time? He just stood respectfully in front of Mantian. Looking at him, it seemed that he was not the leader of the holy land, but just an ordinary disciple of the Eight Desolations Palace.
But Mantian asked softly: "Master Deng, can your master tell me where the Chaos Bell is hidden?"
Deng Tianai frowned and said: "No matter what kind of punishment the old guy suffered, he just didn't tell me, which bothered me."
Mantian's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, but his voice became softer, and he asked slowly: "Master Deng, you can't bear to part with the Chaos Bell, a mere magic weapon, right? Or, seeing your former master, you can't bear to do it?"
Deng Tianai's eyes flashed with a trace of panic, and he said hurriedly: "How can I be reluctant? We made a vow at the beginning. , Senior, you helped me seize the position of the head of the sect, and I will use the sect treasure, the Chaos Bell, in exchange. I will never break the promise. "
After a pause, Deng Tianai's eyes flashed with hatred again, and he said fiercely: "As for that old guy Jiu Ze, how could I show mercy to him? I have served him like a cow and a horse for so many years, and he actually wanted to abolish my position as the head disciple just for me to practice the Purple House Car. If it weren't for your help, he would have destroyed my cultivation. I couldn't even kill him in time, so how could I not have the heart to kill him?"
Mantian nodded gently and said slowly: "If that's the case, then it's the best. You have to remember that I let you become the head of the * Sect because you took the Chaos Bell as an exchange. If you can't hand over the Chaos Bell, then you don't have to be the head. Since I can easily promote you, I can pull you down even more easily. Do you understand this?"
"Junior understands." Deng Tianai said hurriedly.
"Also, have you found your junior brother Qiu Xuan? Until now, there are still many old guys in your * Sect who want him to be the head, and he knows a lot about the inside story of this time. Keeping him is a disaster, so get rid of him quickly." Mantian said softly again.
When he heard Mantian mention Qiu Xuan's name, Deng Tianai's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said in a deep voice: "Yes, I understand."
Hearing Deng Tianai's answer, Mantian nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand casually and said: "Then you can go back."
Seeing Mantian's attitude of calling him at will, Deng Tianai's eyes flashed with anger, but his expression became more respectful. He bowed deeply to Mantian, and then slowly retreated.
