Seeking Immortality

The battle in Blood Valley was thrilling and full of twists and turns. Although Xu Qingfan has experienced countless fierce battles in his life, the most dangerous and treacherous one is still the Blood Valley Battle. This chapter is provided by the website for online reading

This time, I revisited the old place, and recalled the events of the past. I couldn't help but sigh again.

In fact, the Blood Valley Battle was only three or four years ago, which was far from making Xu Qingfan sigh about the past, but there were so many things that happened in the past three or four years that Xu Qingfan felt as if many years had passed.

The place where I agreed to meet with Zhang Yi was not in the Blood Valley, but the place where Xu Qingfan and Zhang Yi met for the first time a long time ago. At that time, Xu Qingfan had just killed Zhang San and Zhang Si, and then fled after meeting Zhang Yi.

This battle was indeed a hundred years apart. It was a fierce battle at the time, but now it is so bland when I think back, and I have even gradually forgotten it.

To go to the agreed place, he had to pass by the Blood Valley. The scene he saw along the way was also a review of the grudges between him and Zhang Yi.

"We agreed to meet three years later, but I thought I had expelled the poison, so I forgot about it. Now it has been more than half a year since the agreed time, and I don't know if Zhang Yi is still waiting. I hope I don't make a wasted trip."

Xu Qingfan thought secretly.

"Also, the place agreed with Zhang Yi is 300 miles west, near the Xisha area, and there seems to be a place called Black Valley. According to Bai Qingfu's description of the various conditions in Zhang Xusheng's secret base before he entered Jiuhua, whether it is rock structure, topography, or plant survival, they are very similar. After I go to Zhang Yi's appointment this time, should I go there to explore?"

Thinking of this, Xu Qingfan frowned.

"Zhang Xusheng has great magical powers. He is indeed the top figure in the human cultivation of immortals for thousands of years. It doesn't matter if that place is not his base camp. If it is true, with my current cultivation, I am afraid I will be easily discovered."

Just when Xu Qingfan shook his head to deny it. But he thought: "But if you say it is dangerous, it is not dangerous. The Four Spirits Sky Map is a divine object. Even if Zhang Xusheng wants to refine it, it will take several years or even more than ten years. You know, even the masters of the Righteous Alliance planned to refine it in two years with the combined efforts of twelve people. In this way, Zhang Xusheng will concentrate on refining the Four Spirits Sky Map, and those monsters under his command will not be able to do anything to me."

Thinking like this, Xu Qingfan's original idea of ​​not wanting to take risks was shaken again.

On the one hand, it is less than a year before the Shura clan returns. And finding Zhang Xusheng is the key. If Bai Qingfu waits until Bai Qingfu goes to the Righteous Alliance to explain the matter before taking action, then Bai Qingfu must first persuade the leaders of each faction. Then the masters who were searching in various places in Shenzhou were recalled. The high-level members of the Righteous Alliance debated the truth of what Bai Qingfu said. When they really started to investigate, it had already been delayed for one or two months. Xu Qingfan could investigate along the way, which could save a lot of time. What's more, Xu Qingfan really wanted to do his part to prevent the Shura clan from making a comeback.

But on the other hand, although Xu Qingfan had only seen Zhang Xusheng from a distance once during the Jiuhua catastrophe, he was very familiar with the rumors about Zhang Xusheng. Through Zhang Hualing, Mr. Liu and others, he also knew how dangerous Zhang Xusheng was. Although he had the urge to investigate, he didn't dare to take such a big risk.

While Xu Qingfan was struggling, he gradually approached the location of the Blood Valley. Suddenly, he found something and was stunned.

Xu Qingfan found that there were more than ten strong spiritual fluctuations in the Blood Valley. There were more than ten Jindan stage cultivators. Some of them were good and some were evil. They were gathered in the Blood Valley at this moment. No one knew what they were doing.

Xu Qingfan hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't help his curiosity in the end. He hid his body and flew towards the Blood Valley.

After secretly flying into the Blood Valley, Xu Qingfan hid in a hidden place. He looked towards where the cultivators were.

He saw more than ten black-clothed cultivators. Although they practiced different techniques, they were dressed in the same way and behaved in a well-organized manner. They were obviously cultivators from the same organization.

At this moment, everyone held a golden round bowl in their hands. When they cast spells, they saw bursts of golden light coming out of these golden bowls. Wherever the golden light reached, the blood-colored soil and rocks in the Blood Valley entered the golden bowls one after another. The golden bowl was only the size of a palm, but Xu Qingfan saw that each golden bowl was filled with blood-colored rocks and soil of no less than ten feet in radius, and it was still being filled, as if the space inside was infinite.

And these monks have been collecting these blood-colored rocks and soil for an unknown period of time. At this moment, the blood-colored soil and rocks in the blood-colored valley have been reduced by more than half, and the soil layer has become much shallower. Occasionally, the black-gray rock layer inside is exposed.

Speaking of which, the reason why Xu Qingfan was deeply impressed by this blood-colored valley was that in addition to the fact that he had narrowly escaped death several times here, it was also because this blood-colored valley had the effect of completely shielding people's breath and even the fluctuations of spiritual energy in their bodies. At that time, the group of people from the Righteous Alliance suffered a lot for this. At that time, Xu Qingfan wanted to study these blood-colored rocks and soil, but unfortunately, the wild monster attacked at that time, and Xu Qingfan had to organize a rescue for the Righteous Alliance. After that, there were a series of things, but he forgot about this matter.

Obviously, now there are organizations or monks of unknown origin who have taken a fancy to these rocks and soil. However, Xu Qingfan had roughly tested these rocks and soil in the past and found that although they have the magical effect of concealing the breath, they cannot be refined into magic tools. This is why Xu Qingfan almost ignored this matter. However, he did not know what these monks wanted to do by collecting such a large amount of blood-colored rocks and soil at this moment. "Huh?"

At this moment, Xu Qingfan noticed the leader of this group of mysterious monks and couldn't help but let out a light exclamation in his heart.

The man stood quietly behind the busy mysterious monks, and did not move like the others, but watched everyone collecting blood-colored rocks and soil. This person's cultivation was also far beyond the other monks. He had reached the peak of the golden elixir stage, and exuded a certain hidden and dangerous aura. Obviously, he was not as simple as an ordinary golden elixir peak cultivator. He must have cultivated some powerful magical skills, and his strength was at least not inferior to Qingsong Confucian Scholar and Wanshi Monk in the Righteous Alliance.

This was nothing. After the catastrophe began, the masters of good and evil who had been reclusive emerged one after another. Such peerless masters at the peak of the Golden Core stage are now becoming less and less valuable.

What really surprised Xu Qingfan was that although this leader was dressed in black like other cultivators, he was wearing a half-dead wood mask on his face.

Such a dead wood mask. Xu Qingfan had accidentally obtained one. Before the destruction of the "Treasure Pavilion", Xu Qingfan had also seen three such cultivators wearing black clothes and half-dead wood masks on their faces in front of the "Treasure Pavilion".

"Could these black-clothed cultivators also belong to the same organization as the Hades Organization? I don't know what the purpose of this organization is. As the catastrophe continues, all kinds of monsters and demons have appeared. If these cultivators really belong to the same organization, the Righteous Alliance has not noticed it for so many years. Its mystery is no less than that of the Hades Organization."

Xu Qingfan stared at the cultivators in front of him. He thought secretly in his heart.

While Xu Qingfan was thinking, the leader seemed to notice the way Xu Qingfan was looking at him, and turned around abruptly. There was a colorful light in his eyes, and he stared at Xu Qingfan's position.

Seeing that this person could sense his existence just by looking at him, Xu Qingfan was shocked, knowing that this person's cultivation strength might be better than his own.

Not wanting to cause trouble again, he was also wary of this black-clothed monk, so when this monk slowly exuded a mighty aura and walked towards Xu Qingfan's position step by step, Xu Qingfan did not hesitate at all, and the "Flying Long Silk" suddenly appeared under his feet. It turned into a yellow light and flew quickly into the distance.

After Xu Qingfan used the "Flying Long Silk", his speed doubled instantly. The man in black couldn't catch up with him. After flying in the air for a while, he found that the distance between them was getting farther and farther. He had no choice but to stop flying. After stagnating in the air, he stared at Xu Qingfan's back tightly. Finally, he seemed to have discovered something and showed an unpredictable smile on his face.

"It's him. The person that the boss likes can't be touched, but since he discovered these things, he can't just let him go. Or, catch him first and ask for instructions after the boss comes out of retreat?"

This man in black was a member of the "An" organization founded by Zhang Xusheng, but he didn't know that Zhang Xusheng left to collect the blood of the unicorn in the southern wilderness during his retreat.

As he spoke, the man in black showed a thoughtful look in his eyes. After a moment. He stretched out his hand to the sky and shot a light bullet with colorful light exploded in the sky. Then it disappeared in an instant.

Although the colorful light was fleeting, it could be noticed by those who were interested within a thousand miles. After understanding the meaning of the colorful light, they all took action.

The "Dark" organization, which had always been hidden in the deepest part, finally showed its edge as the real catastrophe approached! !

The black-clothed monk snorted coldly at the direction where Xu Qingfan was going, turned around and flew towards the location of the Blood Valley, and continued to monitor other black-clothed monks collecting the blood-colored rocks and soil.

About an hour later, the black-clothed monks finally finished collecting. Looking around, the original Blood Valley, which was covered with blood-colored rocks and soil, was almost completely collected. The original Blood Valley just turned into an ordinary earth-black color, with one or two red spots on it.

"Let's go."

The black-clothed man nodded with satisfaction and said coldly.

As he said that, the black-clothed man flew quickly to the west. And the other black-clothed people hurried to catch up.

After all the men in black left, a long time later, a breeze blew, bringing up a mixture of black and red dust. After the blood-colored rocks and soil in the blood were collected, although it was less weird, it also looked much more desolate.

However, at the place where Xu Qingfan had just been invisible, the space suddenly fluctuated, and Xu Qingfan's figure suddenly appeared in the empty valley, looking at the backs of the group of men in black from afar, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

It turned out that the one who suddenly appeared and fled was not Xu Qingfan, but Xu Qingfan's clone Xu Zhiyuan. Xu Qingfan controlled the "Flying Long Silk" to help him flee, firstly to divert the attention of the men in black. Secondly, it was also a preparation in case of a sneak attack. Thirdly, flying in the opposite direction was also to prevent the men in black or his accomplices from looking in the wrong direction when searching, so as to reduce some trouble for him in the future.

"What are these men in black doing by collecting these mud and rocks that can hide the breath of monks and the fluctuation of spiritual energy?"

Xu Qingfan murmured. But there is always a bad feeling in my heart.

A moment later, Xu Zhiyuan and "Feitian Changling" flew back, and after a flash of spiritual light, they both entered Xu Qingfan's body.

Xu Qingfan did not hesitate and flew towards his destination.

Although Xu Qingfan didn't want to cause any more trouble, the people in black were going in the same direction as the place agreed upon by Xu Qingfan and Zhang Yi. In desperation, Xu Qingfan could only restrain his aura as much as possible, and stayed far away. Behind those mysterious black monks.

Just flying in tandem. Three days later, Xu Qingfan finally arrived not far from the location he and Zhang Yi had agreed upon. He only needed to turn around and fly dozens of miles away. But those men in black still did not reach their destination. Still flying quickly towards the west.

"Going further to the west, it seems to be the location of the Black Glory Valley, and the Black Glory Valley is one of the possible locations of Zhang Xusheng's secret base. Could it be..."

Xu Qingfan thought about it, and his heart couldn't help but move. Although he had decided not to take risks anymore, all the things put together made Xu Qingfan's curiosity more intense, and he hesitated for a moment. However, Xu Qingfan took a bite and ignored the three-year agreement for the time being, and continued to follow the black-clothed monks flying towards the west.

As we get closer to Xisha, the wind, dust, smoke and sand become heavier, and the sky and the earth are covered in yellow.

Speaking of which, Xu Qingfan has been to the Southern Wilderness, the East China Sea, and the North Ice over the past few years, but he has never been to Xisha.

Of course, the Xisha land is no less desolate and dangerous than the Southern Wasteland, so Xu Qingfan has no regrets about not going there.

After another day. "Hei Yao Valley" was getting closer and closer, but those black-clothed monks suddenly disappeared after flying near "Hei Yao Valley".

"Hei Yao Valley" is just like its name. The rocks and soil are all deep black, and the sunlight reflects off a bright black light, which has a strange feeling. However, Xu Qingfan flew around this "Hei Yao Valley" for a whole time. After three rounds, I still couldn't find where the entrance was.

But it is an indisputable fact that those mysterious monks in black disappeared near the Black Glory Valley.

In other words, the base camp of these black-clothed monks is probably located in this "Black Glory Valley". At the same time, this "Hei Yao Valley" is likely to be Zhang Xusheng's base camp. That is to say...

Xu Qingfan thought of this. The mood in his heart became more and more solemn, and then he suddenly took out a charm with inexplicable energy fluctuations in his hand. It is the "Tianya Messenger Talisman"! !

"Messaging Talisman" is the simplest spell, but it is also the most difficult spell. For example, a spell that can communicate for ten miles can be easily made by a monk who has a little understanding of the art of making spells. The "Hundred-mile Communication Talisman" ", the distance has increased tenfold, but the difficulty of manufacturing has increased a hundredfold. However, the "Tianya Communication Talisman" in Xu Qingfan's hand has a communication distance of 300,000 miles. You can imagine how difficult it is to make. Coupled with some blessings and hidden auras, each of these talismans is worth no less than an ordinary heaven-level magic weapon.

In fact, these talismans were all given to the Righteous Alliance by Mr. Liu with great pains. Each of the decision-makers in the Righteous Alliance had one person. After giving these "Tianya Communication Talismans" to Immortal Zizhen, Mr. Liu was not in a good mood for half a year. , complained to Xu Qingfan for a long time.

After recording all his findings in the "Tianya Communication Talisman", he saw that the "Tianya Communication Talisman" suddenly ignited and turned into ashes in an instant. However, in the firelight, a hidden colorful aura suddenly appeared and flew high into the sky. After that, he flew quickly in the direction of "Ronghua Mountain", the speed was four or five minutes faster than when Xu Qingfan used the "Feitian Changling".

"If this is really the base camp of Zhang Xusheng and his followers, then this communication talisman will cause a big battle between Zhang Xusheng and the Righteous Alliance."

Xu Qingfan watched the colorful light disappear at the edge of the sky and thought silently.

Or Zhang Xusheng was rumored to be too powerful. Although Zhang Xusheng's location was found, the battle with Zhang Xusheng was inevitable, and Zhang Xusheng was the key to the comeback of the "Shura Clan" organized by the Righteous Alliance. But Xu Qingfan felt an unknown feeling in his heart.

"No matter what, this battle has to begin."

Xu Qingfan shook his head, dispelling the sense of uncertainty in his heart, and resisted the idea of ​​going to the "Black Glory Valley" first to explore it. But it flew towards the position agreed upon by him and Zhang Yi.

"It's been half a year since the agreed time. Are you sure that Xu Qingfan will come? Under the poison of Ice Love, he might have turned into a withered skeleton long ago."

The location Xu Qingfan and Zhang Yi agreed on was a lush forest. At this moment, Zhang Yi was sitting on a tree at the highest point in the forest, the top of the tree swaying in the wind. Zhang Yi's figure is also constantly swaying, but the posture of sitting cross-legged is extremely stable.

After closing his eyes and meditating for a long time, Zhang Yi suddenly opened his eyes and asked.

However, Zhang Yi's body was completely empty, but she didn't know who she was talking to.

"He will come."

Strangely, a soft and elegant voice suddenly sounded from the air above the empty forest, comforting Zhang.

Zhang Yi frowned and said: "It has been more than half a year. We have so much to do, but we have wasted nearly half a year here. Every time I ask you, you say that Xu Qingfan will definitely come. What on earth is that?" What makes you so confident?"

"Isn't it worth waiting for half a year for the Sword of Against the Heaven? With your help, my skills have reached the highest level. Even Zhang Xusheng can no longer hurt me. But I can't hurt Zhang Xusheng either. The Sword of Against the Heaven is what breaks the balance between him and me." The soft and elegant voice explained, "Why am I sure that Xu Qingfan will come? It's because I have absolute confidence in the Ice Lotus Poison. You think the Ice Lotus Poison is so weak and takes so long to work. Why is it the most amazing poison in the world? It's because the cultivators... Once you are poisoned, no matter what kind of magic or antidote you use, it cannot be completely removed. Even if it is removed, it will grow again in the cultivator's body after a period of time. I think Xu Qingfan used some means to remove most of the ice lotus poison before, thinking it was completely eradicated. So he didn't care about the antidote, but when he found that the ice lotus poison was growing again in his body, he would definitely come. "

"Why don't you say that the sword against the sky is also the only thing that can hurt you?"

"That's why you have to wait for Xu Qingfan more patiently."

The elegant and feminine voice said with a smile.

Zhang Yi snorted coldly, but finally calmed down and slowly closed his eyes.

However, at this moment, the feminine and elegant voice sounded again, but this time there was a hint of smile in the voice.

"He is here, I said, I won't wait in vain."

Relying on the gradually fading memory in his heart. Xu Qingfan finally found the place where he first met Zhang Yi.

Just flew close. At first glance, he happened to see Zhang Yi sitting on the top of the highest tree in the forest.

Sensing Xu Qingfan's approach, Zhang Yi slowly opened his eyes, floated up, and flew towards Xu Qingfan.

The two met at the edge of the forest, staring at each other without giving in, and were silent for a while.

As they looked at each other, both sides were shocked, and they were both incredible at the speed of their cultivation. Xu Qingfan's promotion to the late Jindan stage was already a rare god in the world of immortal cultivation, and at this time, Zhang Yi, who didn't know how he cultivated in the past three or four years, had reached the peak of the Jindan stage, which was even higher than Xu Qingfan.

"You are late." After waiting for half a year in vain, anyone would be angry. "More than half a year."

Xu Qingfan smiled and said, "There are a lot of things to do, and I was delayed. Isn't it here?"

"Did you bring the sword against the sky?" Zhang Yi asked coldly.

Xu Qingfan did not answer, but asked, "Where is the antidote?"

"It's here with me."

Suddenly, an elegant and feminine figure sounded over the empty forest.
