The Lord who use immortals as food

"Why, there's no light at all." Kong Lanting kept the scabbard in his hand and looked ahead with his eyebrows furrowed.

The pale moonlight shines through the mist, and the old rocks are jagged, the grass is wild, and some huge irregular holes are scattered blackly on it, making it feel cold just looking at it.

"This peak is built with caves as chambers. The top of the peak is naturally exquisite, and the stone chambers are all below." Guan Qianyan said, "And now that everyone has left, of course there is no one."

"What if there is no one around and that thing appears again." Kong Lanting was still frightened, "We have to report it to the elders as soon as possible."

"I think that thing may be to prevent people from smuggling across the border." Guan Qianyan had a different idea at this time, "Since the golden seal can go down, how could the elders not know that we came up quietly now, wouldn't it be wrong if we said it Throw yourself into a trap?”

Kong Lanting looked at her with wide eyes: "You really don't care about eating but not fighting."

Guan Qianyan gave him a hard knock on the chestnut.

Having said that, the peak pillar is indeed cold and deserted now. Although the two people climbed up from the ground, the stone pillar is isolated in the sea of ​​fog and is still helpless in all directions. Under the cold mist of the light moon and the jagged rocks in the dark sky, they seemed to have crossed a dangerous sea and arrived at this isolated place.

The two walked down gently and came to the nearest cave entrance. Looking back a few feet, they could see a huge iron pile, which was the connection point of the chain bridge.

Now you can't see the chain extending from the fog, only it stands naked here.

"The chains have been taken away, so they are probably gone."

Kong Lanting did not move. He looked blankly into the fog outside the peak. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "Senior Sister Guan, have you smelled a little bit of blood?"

Guan Qianyan was startled for a moment, her nose seemed to catch a bit of the fishy smell coming from afar, but it disappeared in an instant. And that is the direction from which the Law Enforcement Hall came.

"It must be the wound on my neck." Guan Qianyan touched it, "Don't worry about it for now."

"oh."

The girl looked away and stepped into the grotto first. After a while, a low voice came from below, "Come down, it seems that there is really no one."

Kong Lanting jumped down and his eyes suddenly went dark. Indeed, the steps here had been repaired and tables and chairs were placed. It was obviously a frequently used room, but now there was no candlelight at all. Only a few open spaces reflected the light. Just the faint moonlight.

But after all, as long as there is light, a person with cultivation can see many roads clearly. Guan Qianyan identified the direction, and the two of them moved forward.

"Where should we find Senior Brother Jingbi?"

"There is a stone prison on the back of this peak pillar, which is open to the outside of the peak. Jingbi is locked up there."

"Sister, do you know the way? Don't get lost again."

"It's not foggy and I'm lost." Guan Qianyan glared at him, "Are you leaving?"

"Let's go." Kong Lanting put his head in his hands and said immediately.

The two of them walked slowly inward. The grotto became deeper and deeper, but it remained silent. It seemed that there was no one on the entire peak, except for the two of them and the young man they had not seen yet.

The two of them gradually became bolder, their steps were no longer cautious, and their voices became slightly louder. However, as they walked, their footsteps suddenly stopped.

The words were also broken in half.

At the dark and silent corner ahead, there was a very faint orange light coming through, appearing and disappearing slightly.

The two paused for a moment, looked at each other, and walked quietly against the wall. Guan Qianyan came to the door and carefully put half of her eyes in.

Empty.

In the empty room, there were only two pairs of tables, chairs and some simple utensils. The candle stood on the table and was about to burn out. Some wisps of black smoke flew out of the firelight. There was an oil lamp burning on another table, and the fire was still very bright. There were two sword hooks nailed to the stone wall next to it, but the swords on them were gone.

Guan Qianyan looked at her for a while, and then an unbearable little head poked out from her waist: "Senior Sister Guan, what's going on?"

"It's okay. They left in a hurry and the candles didn't even go out." Guan Qianyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, the person has obviously been gone for a while. The candle has burned to the bottom, and the cylinder can no longer be seen, only a puddle of shape is left, and the candle wick is about to be submerged in it.

The two of them walked in with confidence. Guan Qianyan looked around, found a book on the wall, and read with his hands behind his back: "Today the nine pillars are on duty: Dai Qiwen, Mo Chang - it turns out to be Senior Brother Mo."

He turned around and said: "Going forward, it should lead directly to the back peak - stop wandering, let's go quickly."

"Okay." Kong Lanting stood in front of another table, turned around obediently, and muttered, "This lamp is quite full."

".What?" Guan Qianyan was stunned.

"This lamp is full of oil -" Kong Lanting suddenly realized something, and his words died in his throat.

Guan Qianyan walked over quickly, and at this moment, the wax core behind him was submerged in the oil, and completely darkened with two "pops" of brightness and extinction. On the table in front of me, the fire burned vigorously and steadily, and the lamp oil in the lamp was so clear and overflowing that it almost climbed out of the edge of the lamp.

"."

The two bodies became silent at the same time.

It was at this moment that they suddenly felt that there were many things wrong that had already existed - the chair behind the table was not pushed away by normal standing up, but was pushed to the back wall with a catapult-like force; the ink pen was not placed on the pen holder. , but fell directly on the paper pad, and the ink had sunk down and soaked a large area; the shelf at the back was knocked a little crooked, and there was a sharp and deep sword mark on it.

"No, senior sister Guan." Kong Lanting said in a very soft voice.

Guan Qianyan looked at the stone wall in front of him without saying a word. It was just under the hooks of the two swords. The stone wall was polished smooth and a line of words was engraved on it: Jia Jiuzhu is in the right position of the word A. It communicates between the north and the south, no matter when. , at least one value must be in place to respond to sudden changes.

"."

But now the person left behind, whether it is Dai Qiwen or Mo Chang, has disappeared. The lower part of the stone slab was an empty depression. At this moment, Guan Qianyan remembered what it was - the sleeping place of [Snake Eyes Chasing Evil]. It was a magic weapon that assisted in guarding the prison and could send out warning signals. Disciples on duty It can be activated in times of danger.

It is now open.

The two of them were speechless for a moment, and suddenly Guan Qianyan pressed the hilt of her sword: "Jing Bi!"

Rush forward immediately.

"Senior Sister Guan!" Kong Lanting did not hold on and quickly followed behind.

Leaving this hall is an extremely long and deep tunnel.

It was obviously dug out manually. As you go down, there are no more branches in the stone chamber. The feeling of darkness and desolation buried underground is getting heavier and heavier. This is obviously another place far away from the front hall.

Guan Qianyan saw the sword marks on the stone wall again, but as he walked forward, his heart and lungs tightened. He saw an iron-colored snake as long as an arm piercing into the wall next to it, but the tail of the body was twisted and damaged. Some of the mysterious patterns are still flowing messily.

【Snake eyes chase evil】

Guan Qianyan looked at this place with heavy breathing, and the blood spattered on the stone wall, bright red.

"."

No need to think anymore, something must have happened here, I just don’t know who the intruder is and what the situation is now.

Jing Bi was forbidden to cultivate in prison and was unarmed. Guan Qianyan gritted his teeth and the two of them moved forward again.

The tunnel was getting shorter and shorter, the familiar cold fog had spread from the end of the passage, and the smell of blood was getting stronger. The last few corners were in front of them, and the two of them lowered their steps lightly again.

However, what came from the end of the passage was not the sound of weapons fighting, but a subtle male voice: "Is everything taken care of?"

"Waiting for you for a while."

"It's more important over there." The male voice whispered, "——Did you stop him?"

"Everyone has been sent out. As long as we hurry up, we'll be there in time."

"Then let's get started."

"Okay, I'll get the painting fluid."

The words stopped here. Guan Qianyan was about to move forward quietly, but footsteps from the other end suddenly sounded one step ahead, heading straight towards this side.

The two of them tensed up at the same time.

There is absolutely no way to retreat at this time, and they cannot retreat faster than the other party while remaining silent.

But this was indeed an opportunity for the enemy to be alone. Guan Qianyan drew her sword silently and slowly, turning her head and giving Kong Lanting a look. Regardless of whether the boy understood it or not, her body was already as low as a female. Leopard.

Then this figure emerged from the shadows, and all the girl's preparations were abruptly cut off at this moment.

She suddenly caught the familiarity in the voice just now, and understood why she didn't recognize it.

Because this voice has always appeared in everyone's ears as gentle as a spring breeze, she has never heard it sound so cold and short, like a sharp dagger.

His whole body seemed to have been peeled off by the spring breeze, revealing the ice that had never melted for thousands of years. His long white clothes were spattered with fine blood spots. The unsheathed sword was held upside down in his hand. The man lowered his head and showed no expression. The earth has turned this corner.

The second this familiar figure appeared in his field of vision, Guan Qianyan stood up from the shadows in surprise: "Senior Brother Xi!"

Xi Tianji suddenly raised his head, and the cold light in his eyes almost penetrated the girl's throat for a moment. Guan Qianyan paused for a moment: "Senior Brother Xi?"

Xi Tianji calmed down for a moment, and then his voice softened: "Why are you here?"

". We want to come and visit Jing Bi." Guan Qianyan laughed again and felt relieved when she saw this figure. "Brother Xi, what happened here? We saw a lot of blood along the way. You were injured. Yet?"

"Some bad guys have been eliminated." Xi Tianji smiled, his gentleness and naturalness revealed, "We will ask the elders to come over and deal with it soon. Don't go any further, go back quickly."

"Ah, how about Jing Bi?" Guan Qianyan relaxed her body and loosened the hilt of her sword, stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Xi, is he okay?"

"It's okay." Xi Tianji smiled slightly. Even though a small amount of blood spattered on his face, he still had a calm demeanor and said in a low voice, "Things here are not suitable for you to get involved. Go back quickly."

"Then how about we meet Jing Bi?" Guan Qianyan raised her head and begged, "We are all here, let us meet, Brother Xi."

"No." Xi Tianji said solemnly, "This is not a child's play, go back quickly!"

"Okay." Guan Qianyan lowered her head reluctantly and turned back. She knew that this senior brother rarely refused people, but once he refused, there was no turning around.

"Ah" Kong Lanting turned around reluctantly, but suddenly remembered it again and said a little depressed, "By the way, Brother Xi, let me tell you something. There is a living sword under our valley, which can kill people. I don't know if you know it." Know."

"."

".What's wrong, Senior Brother Xi?"

"Have you seen the living sword?"

"Yes, we came across it when we came from the bottom of the valley. It floated in the air on its own. It was very fierce and powerful." Kong Lanting said seriously, "But I don't know why it suddenly let us go - Senior Brother Xi?"

"Oh." Xi Tianji slowly raised his head, Qingjun's face expressionless, "Don't leave. Do you want to see Zhang Jingbi? Then come."

"."

The two looked at each other, but the man had already turned sideways and motioned for them to move forward. That was the direction where the cold mist was spreading in. The two were a little confused by the atmosphere, but they still moved forward.

Xi Tianji followed them.

When the long tunnel reached the port, the cold fog invaded again. The two walked out of the long tunnel and took everything on the ground outside the tunnel into view.

I didn't see any bad guys.

Mo Chang's body was nailed to the stone wall, with his own sword piercing his throat. His head was lowered and his eyes were bulging. Blood flowed down, leaving a sad and beautiful winding line on the stone wall.

A man in his mid-twenties was leaning on the huge rock opposite him. His body and face were still a bit dusty, and he was wiping a long sword with his head down.

The entire cliff was filled with a huge and complicated carving formation, more than ten feet long and wide. This shocking and strange scene made both of them freeze. When their eyes moved to the end, that scene hit them hard. of brain strings.

The stone prison had been opened, and Zhang Jingbi, who was bound and without energy, had an iron rod pierced through his chest and nailed to the stone wall.

It obviously avoided his heart, but deliberately destroyed part of his lungs, accurately turning the boy into a seriously injured but not dead creature waiting to be slaughtered. Zhang Jingbi's white lips trembled, his head tilted to the side weakly, and every time he breathed, he took in several mouthfuls of air like a fish on the shore, which looked miserable and ridiculous.

He looked at them hard at this time, and he didn't know what expression he wanted to convey in his sad eyes.

Kong Lanting couldn't say a word, and Guan Qianyan almost screamed in his throat.

At this time, the man in the middle raised his head, and the girl suddenly realized that she also recognized this face - although he rarely appeared in front of the disciples since he started working at Lianxin Pavilion.

He is cold, deeply cut, and looks like an eagle. He is named for his murderous skills with a sword. It is said that he has entered the eighth life the year before last.

"Senior Brother Jiang, this is -" The girl's body froze along with her words, and her back suddenly straightened back, like a fish being inserted into the heart.

All the energy in her body collapsed in her meridians in an instant, blood flew out of her throat, and she fell to the ground stiffly. In her peripheral vision, she could see the boy's similarly trembling figure.

Then she felt the palm retracted from behind. In a state of disbelief, the girl felt like she was being picked up and thrown under Mo Chang's body together with the boy. This is probably the only corner in the whole place that doesn't interfere with the engraved formation. Next to it are broken swords, bloody cloths and other junk.

"There are always bad things to worry about." Jiang Yitong said coldly.

Guan Qianyan gasped for breath tremblingly. She didn't know what kind of technique this was. It could make people lose all their resistance with one palm. She only felt unprecedented pain, and her heart seemed to be constantly tightening. Open, tears have overflowed from the eyes.

She tried to move her eyes to look at the little boy beside her, who was actually much stronger than her. At this time, he was biting his eyes tightly, but his body was shaking and spasming uncontrollably.

Xi Tianji held the bronze box in one hand and left his back indifferently: "What should we do with these two people?"

"Just ask." Jiang Yitong glanced coldly, "It's not easy to kill him. He will probably be 'disappeared'."

"good."

"Painting fluid." Jiang Yitong stretched out his hand and took it. Then the man walked to the beginning of the carved formation on the ground and slowly poured a box of clear and viscous liquid. When it flowed into the carved ravines, the thin starlight seemed to penetrate the fog. These liquids Immediately there was a sparkling light.

As it spread out bit by bit, the complex formation seemed to light up in front of them, forming a natural and perfect slow structure.

This process took about a quarter of an hour. Although Qianyan tried countless times to calm down and break away from the spasm, the pain of twisting defeated all her efforts in the next moment. In the face of truly cruel methods, this girl who thought she was fearless was like a fragile baby bird.

The star liquid flowing on the ground had begun to gradually merge, but at the last place at the end, the man left a blank space, not allowing the formation to be completed.

"Get the soul." Jiang Yi said.

Xi Tianji took out a half-black, half-transparent bead and walked towards the stone prison.

Guan Qianyan watched this scene tremblingly. At this moment, she suddenly understood what she was encountering.

After the Law Enforcement Hall nervously monitored the entire Tiesong Sword Discussion, when Yan Caiyue was seriously injured and Xianqiao Peak was closely guarded, the girl curiously asked her father countless times, and finally learned the vague details of this matter from him. Appearance.

But the spooky "soul-stealing sword" seemed to be a story from the horizon. Guan Qianyan forgot about it after hearing it and never took it to heart.

But now, not only was it being cruelly staged in front of him, but the one who indifferently harmed his own disciples was the most trusted and respected senior brother!

Guan Qianyan watched him walking towards Zhang Jingbi step by step, her throat trembling as she squeezed out "no" with different tones. She gritted her teeth and tried hard to get up, but she was defeated by the severe pain again without any suspense.

Then she suddenly realized the fact that even if she got rid of the pain, nothing would change.

That is the senior brother who can take off his long sword with a single strike of his sword. He was the number one figure in Kongtong in the previous generation. Now he is no longer in the same world as them. He can make both of them collapse with a single palm of his hand. Even if he stood up, he wouldn't be able to stop anything.

At this time, she deeply regretted bringing her junior brother to such a deserted place - there were still many opportunities to stop gambling, but many times, life and death were just one wrong move.

She was not old enough to understand this truth, but it was already too late.

But Xi Tianji's hand that reached over still stopped.

"Didn't you stop me?" Jiang Yitong straightened up and raised his sword with a cold tone.

Xi Tianji also pressed the beads and sword, and both of them looked at the entrance of the cave.

Guan Qianyan didn't know what was going on, and the boy next to him raised his neck and looked tremblingly. The energy of the two of them had dissipated, and some distant sounds could no longer reach their ears.

But soon this loud sound hit the eyes and ears of mortals. In the long and hazy tunnel, from far to near, a sharp roar filled the ears in an instant, and the entire peak was The mist stirred and trembled.

At a speed that makes one's heart and lungs tighten suddenly, on the cliff, Jiang Yitong's pupils tightened, and he drew his sword horizontally. Guan Qianyan had never seen the previous generation sword leader strike with all his strength, but now the sword in front of him has proven that everything.

The entire foggy cold grass on Yaping was suppressed in an instant. The man swung his sword horizontally, and eight lives of true energy was squeezed into an unbreakable golden wall in front of him.

The next moment, the screaming thing rushed out of the cliff cave, and the air that had squeezed the entire long tunnel was released. The explosive roar swept across the entire cliff in an instant.

Amid the stinging pain in his eardrums, a powerful sword shadow penetrated everything in front of Jiang Yitong. The true energy shattered like the wind, and the white energy flew like broken feathers. In the chaos, only the beautiful sword could be seen. The body is drawn into a transparent central axis straight line.

Jiang Yitong was nailed to the cliff.

The howling disappeared, and clear footsteps sounded step by step at the entrance of the long tunnel.

The young man slowly walked out of the shadows. The pale moon faded away the shadows on his body little by little. The blood soaked his black hair and his clothes were dyed. He breathed lightly and looked around with cold eyes, then lowered his eyes and stared at Xi Tianji opposite.

".Are you the only one?"
