Taiping Inn

The next day, following the map drawn by the Butian Sect, the righteous people entered Beimang Mountain. Although there were many ghosts and spirits in Beimang Mountain, who dared to act presumptuously in front of so many Taoists and monks? He was truly righteous and made the gloomy Beimang Mountain more lively.

Beimang Mountain has a total of 32 peaks. When the Zaoge Sect was at its peak, it took 28 peaks. Now the Zaoge Sect is no longer what it used to be. It just barely occupies 12 peaks, and the Yinyang Sect occupies another 9 peaks. The righteous people did not want to sweep through the peaks one by one, and the troops were aimed directly at the main peak of the Zaoge Sect.

Along the way, the righteous people were unstoppable, and did not encounter any decent resistance, and approached the foot of the main peak of the Zaoge Sect. At first glance, the mountain here looked normal. The foot, the middle and the top of the mountain were all dilapidated buildings and broken walls. You could still vaguely see the tragic scene when the 21 sects besieged the Zaoge Sect. There were even many tombs exposed to the ground due to the change of terrain, which added a bit of gloom and horror.

At this moment, rolling fog suddenly appeared, like a white sea, covering the scene on the mountain. You could vaguely see shadows in the fog, as if there were many people shaking.

Zhang Jingxiu said: "This is the Zaoge Sect's people opening the formation."

After that, a purple long sword appeared in his hand, which was "Zixia", and then he slashed it.

The middle of the fog sea suddenly sank, and a deep gully appeared. The rolling fog rushed towards the gully, and then fell, like two white waterfalls running in opposite directions.

Then another sword appeared in Zhang Jingxiu's hand, which was clear and pure, and it was "Qingyun". He held two swords in his hands and separated them to the left and right, and the sea of ​​fog was also separated from it.

The clouds were cleared and the sun appeared.

After the fog was forcibly separated, there was still no mountain, but a city appeared out of thin air.

A square city with gates, towers, and moats. The city wall was more than ten feet high and more than two hundred feet long. It was all black and majestic, just like the legendary Fengdu Ghost City. The moat was about five feet wide, with waves surging, but what was surging in the moat was not water, but countless white wronged souls. Distorted human faces could be seen floating on the surface of the river, which was daunting.

Zhang Jingxiu said: "Back then, the Zaoge Sect built the ghost country on the ground, which was not tolerated by the world, so the twenty-one sects joined forces to cultivate the Zaoge Sect. Now it seems that the Zaoge Sect has repaired part of the ghost country, and everyone should not underestimate it."

Everyone agreed.

Zhang Jingxiu said: "This city was left by Zaoge Sect in the past. There are four gates in total, each with a cardinal, which is cyclical and interdependent. So we have to divide into four teams and break the cardinal of the formation of the four gates at the same time. I will lead one team, mainly composed of people from Zhengyi Sect; Sect Master Bai will lead one team, including Cihang Sect, Vajra Sect, Zhenyan Sect, and Faxiang Sect; Mr. Haishi will lead one team, including Qingwei Sect, Donghua Sect, Miaozhen Sect, and Shenxiao Sect; Sect Master Li will lead one team, including Taiping Sect, Wangqing Sect, Butian Sect, and Xuannv Sect. Do you have any opinions?"

Shen Yuanzhong was shocked. The Great Heavenly Master was a master of the Changsheng Realm. The team he was in charge of naturally did not need too many people. The other three teams were all four sects, each with a master of the Tianren Manhua Realm. This fourth team should also be led by a master of the Tianren Manhua Realm, but now Li Xuandu was appointed to lead it. Doesn't it mean that the Great Heavenly Master thinks that Li Xuandu is equal to Bai Xiushang and Zhang Haishi?

In fact, it was not only Shen Yuanzhong who thought so, but several other sect leaders also had similar ideas. Then they heard Zhang Jingxiu say: "Zifu is now in the realm of infinite heaven and man. Mr. Qin, Sect Leader Xiao, and Elder Shen are also in the realm of infinite heaven and man. As long as the four masters of the realm of infinite heaven and man do not meet the Earth Master, even if the Ming official Wang Tianxiao personally takes action, he will not get any good results."

After hearing the words of the Great Heavenly Master, everyone naturally had no objection.

The Great Heavenly Master said: "The South Gate is the main gate, and this gate will be handed over to me. The North Gate will be handed over to Mr. Hai Shi, Sect Leader Bai will be responsible for the West Gate, and Zifu will be responsible for the East Gate."

Zhang Haishi looked at Li Xuandu and smiled: "Zifu, I will meet you from the flank."

Li Xuandu said: "This is the best."

Without further delay, after the discussion, Zhang Jingxiu led the Zhengyi Sect to set off first, and then Zhang Haishi, Bai Xiushang, and Li Xuandu led three groups of people to enter the city from the other three gates respectively.

Before arriving at the East Gate, I saw that the suspension bridge on the East Gate had been lowered, connected to the capstan on the top of the city with an iron lock. Under the suspension bridge were countless wronged souls moving motionlessly, which was really terrifying. Li Xuandu saw that the city gate was wide, almost the same as that of an ordinary city, so he ordered Shen Yuanzhong to open the "compass car" that had revealed Zhuge Zuan's whereabouts, to protect everyone, and then the four great masters of the Heavenly Realm were arranged in front, behind, left and right, with Li Xuandu in front, Shen Yuanzhong in the back, Qin Yiyi on the left, Xiao Shiyu on the right, and Qin Su, who had the weakest cultivation, in the middle.

The group marched into the East Gate in such a mighty manner. As soon as they passed through the city gate, a drastic change occurred in front of them.

The blue sky and the bright autumn sun above my head disappeared. Looking up, I could only see a gray sky. The city was empty, without a single person. Gray fog was everywhere, and it was difficult to distinguish it from the dark sky above my head. It seemed that the sky and the earth were connected as one. The sky and the ground were all dark.

Going further into the city, it was no different from an ordinary city. There were also residential streets, arched bridges and archways, trees on both sides of the road, and lanterns hanging on the buildings facing the street. But there was no one, and these buildings were like an ink painting, with only black and white left, no other colors, as if I had suddenly come from the world of the living to the underworld.

Li Xuan looked at it and could not see through the gray and white mist. He didn't know how big the city was and where these streets led. At this moment, he had to follow the street under his feet.

Suddenly, a gust of dark wind blew, and along the sound of the wind, a few blurry sounds that were far and near came, like the sound of water drops at night, like the sound of whispering, and more like the rustling of a mouse. The sound, afterwards, the sound gradually became louder and you could hear a little laugh, but it was not a normal laugh, just like the kind of laughter hiding in the dark, which made people creepy.

After all, everyone is a master with cultivation. Although this scene is enough to make ordinary people frightened, it is just an ordinary small scene for them. Even if there is really something like that, I will just pass it away.

Seeing this strange illusion, Xiao Shiyu asked, "Brother Shen, this place is like a city, and has rich yin energy. Is it a city that is actually built, or is everything we see an illusion?"

After pondering for a moment, Shen Yuanzhong replied: "The so-called magic is actually to make false come true. The top magic is to turn false into real. The great master has already said that this place is a cave, so there must be a place here. The false city, however, has changed from false to real after continuous improvement by Zaoge Sect, and has become a ghost realm that truly exists in the world. Therefore, Sect Master Xiao must not be careless, nor can he deal with it by breaking the virtual method. ”

Xiao Shiyu nodded, knowing it in his heart.

Li Xuan, who was walking in front, held the "human world" in his hand and kept dispersing the fog in front of him. After walking about a hundred feet away, this long street that leads directly to the city gate has reached the end, and many suddenly appeared here. The figure cannot see the appearance of clothes clearly, and can only see a blurry back. These "people" are one distance away from each other, and they are muttering words around a copper basin.

Li Xuandu stopped, pointed his fingers with the long sword in his hand, and listened intently.

I only heard these people say a strong Shuzhou accent, and it is different from the Shuzhou accent today, and it is mixed with a lot of obscure bytes, making people unable to understand what they are saying.

At this moment, Qin Buyi's expression changed and he said, "Prince Li, be careful, this is the dialect of ancient Shuzhou. These people read the 'witch verses', they are from the witch sect."

As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, he felt a cold air hitting his back.
