Within the mist, there is an oasis covering an extremely large area. Under this oasis, there is a huge cave. The cave extends in all directions and has countless branches. Each branch is connected to a slightly smaller cave.
This slightly smaller cave extends into countless branches, and over and over again, almost the entire desert underground is densely filled with these large and small caves.
Here is where the most mysterious mountain gate of the Lieyang Sect is located in the Dongyang Continent’s magic world.
The largest cave in the middle is as big as several Wuguang Sect halls. Inside it, eight giant purple pillars are erected to form a majestic formation, and ripples of spiritual power slowly spread out from it.
Out, without beginning or end.
Twelve giant pillars arranged according to the directions of the earthly branches are engraved with simple symbols and patterns one after another, looking solemn and solemn.
Between the twelve giant pillars, there are several fluorescent lights connected. Looking from above, it can be seen that the lights are intertwined together, forming halos one after another, which are nested together. If you count carefully, these haloes are one and the same.
One hundred and eight.
On these twelve giant pillars, there are twelve young people sitting cross-legged. Behind each young man, there is a puppet. These puppets include zombies, dull people with dull eyes, and are made of stone, wood, or metal.
Puppets made from the corpses of spiritual beasts.
At this moment, five of the formation halos within the twelve giant pillars suddenly flickered, and then a young man in a green shirt appeared in the formation together with a puppet.
One of the young men on the twelve giant pillars opened his eyes, looked at the people in the formation coldly, and said without any emotion in his voice: "Where are you from?"
The young man in green hurriedly bent down and said respectfully: "Zhou Delong, a branch of the Lieyang Sect of South Korea, a tributary of the Dongyang Empire, has come to take part in the promotion test."
The young man glanced at the other party and said coldly: "Twelve holes on the right, let's go."
The young man clasped his fists respectfully, walked out of the formation, looked around, made silent calculations, moved his body, and followed one of the countless passages, and got in.
The young man nodded slightly, stopped talking, and closed his eyes again.
In the next few hours, several more people walked out of the formation one after another. When the highest-ranking person appeared, eleven haloes lit up. Among the eight young people, thirteen haloes lit up at the moment.
, two people opened their eyes.
Time passed little by little, and suddenly, the halos in the formation lit up again, the number being seven.
A young man on the giant pillar opened his eyes and stared at the formation. At this moment, the light in the formation suddenly flashed again, and eight more halos immediately lit up.
"Huh?" At this time, another young man opened his eyes. The two looked at each other and stared at the formation.
Immediately afterwards, the formation flashed again, and the number of lighted halos instantly increased from fifteen to twenty-five.
"It seems that seniors are here." Two more young men opened their eyes. They looked at the formation with cold eyes and a little respect.
As soon as he said these words, the spiritual energy outside the formation suddenly shrank, a roaring sound came from within the formation, and the illuminated halo grew crazily from twenty-five, and one halo lit up one after another.
The remaining four young people all opened their eyes at this time and showed shock. When the number of halos reached fifty, the twelve people quickly stood up without saying a word, all kneeling on one knee and making weird gestures with their hands.
Handprints, shouting loudly at the same time: "Welcome to you, senior..."
The moment the word "Senior" was spoken, the halo within the formation flickered again. After it soared to sixty-three, it no longer increased, but shone with each other.
The expressions of the twelve people on the giant pillar changed again and again, their attitudes swept away the shock, their eyes revealed a fervor that was almost worshipful, their bodies changed from kneeling on one knee to prostrate on both knees, and they raised their heads and stared closely at the formation.
You must know that if this formation lights up fifty halos, it means that the person who comes has a high status in the Lieyang Sect. If there are more than fifty halos, it means that in addition to the high status, it also means that the person who comes is in the True Master stage.
Ancestor.
With this idea, the twelve people would naturally behave like this.
Slowly, two figures appeared in the formation and gradually solidified. One of them was about twenty years old, handsome in appearance and calm in expression. Wearing a set of dark green brocade robes, he looked more and more like a jade tree facing the wind, elegant and suave.
Behind that young man, followed a strange man with red skin and a fishskin skirt. The man's body was covered with countless strange symbols, the most conspicuous of which were the three paper charms affixed to his body.
The moment these two people appeared, traces of blazing Yang Qi radiated out.
Suddenly one of the twelve people let out a light sigh, and then the others all looked surprised and their eyes flashed.
This man was none other than Yu Wen Zhouyuan. The moment he appeared, he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a stream of green light. The smell of blood immediately filled the space with the flash of blue light. The green light circled around his body, with a threatening aura, and the tip of the sword pointed in all directions.
On top of the giant pillar.
With his spiritual consciousness swept away, Yuwen Zhouyuan felt a little at ease. The twelve people on the giant pillars around him were all at the Great Perfection level in the Zhenqi stage. If he had murderous intentions, he could kill twelve people in an instant.
The weirdo Tiemusen didn't know why, but he changed his behavior of looking left and right in the transmission channel, and stood quietly behind Yuwen Zhouyuan, staring at the symbols on the giant pillar, thoughtfully and silently.
The twelve people on the giant pillar stood up one after another at this time. One of the young people had a strange look on his face and cupped his fists and said, "Senior, who are you?"
On the way here, Yuwen Zhouyuan had already thought of his words. At this time, he looked calm, glanced at the other party coldly, and said calmly: "I, Yuwen Zhouyuan, could you please tell me that during the day, my uncle, Yuwen has something important to do?"
Tell me."
The young man was stunned, looked at each other with several others, and said, "Senior, I can't make the decision on this matter. Why don't you follow me to see the deacons and elders?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan nodded and walked out of the formation, followed by Temusen.
The young man jumped and fell from the giant pillar, and the puppet floated behind him.
"Senior, please." As he said this, the young man moved and flew towards one of the surrounding cave entrances.
Yuwen Zhouyuan followed in without saying a word.
Along the way, the young man secretly looked at Yuwen Zhouyuan, and the more he looked at him, the more respectful his attitude became. In the world of cultivation, strength speaks for itself, and Yuwen Zhouyuan's cultivation in his real life naturally gained the respect of the young man.
Especially Tiemusen behind Yuwen Zhouyuan attracted most of the young man's attention.
Similarly, Yuwen Zhouyuan was also sizing up the opponent, especially paying more attention to the puppet behind the opponent. The puppet was a zombie, with a dry appearance. Although his eyes were cloudy, the moment Yuwen Zhouyuan paid attention to it,
The mummy's eyes suddenly widened, revealing murderous intent.
The young man seemed to have realized something. He turned around and muttered to the zombie. The zombie immediately became well-behaved. At this time, the young man smiled at Yuwen Zhouyuan and said: "Senior, my zombie was a gift from my master. It is said that it was
Collected from the cultivation world of the Sun Never Sets Empire, Fengyun Continent, and the Third Realm Land when they jointly attacked the battlefield of Dongyang Empire. Not only the five senses are extremely sensitive, but also the murderous intent is too strong. This junior spent a lot of effort to
The sacrifice was successful."
Yuwen Zhouyuan nodded and said: "You zombie puppet actually has a cultivation level in the middle stage of True Yuan, which is not bad."
When the young man heard what Yuwen Zhouyuan said, he was secretly shocked. He looked at Yuwen Zhouyuan with a slightly different look. You must know that when he was refining the zombie, his master had already masked the zombie's strength for him, especially
The clothes on the zombie also have the function of blocking spiritual consciousness, but the other party can actually see at a glance the cultivation level of his zombie puppet. He is obviously not an ordinary true master ancestor!
Thinking of this, his attitude became more respectful. After a moment of hesitation, he asked: "Senior, behind you...is this your puppet?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan looked calm and nodded.
There was a look of curiosity on the young man's face, and he looked at Temusen carefully for a long time, and said in surprise: "Senior, how did you refine this puppet with so much spirituality? The only puppet with such spirituality is Bai Shizu's deadly one.
Impermanence only possesses it.”
Yuwen Zhouyuan glanced at the other party without comment.
The young man kept looking at Tiemusen, who looked a little impatient. He bared his teeth at the young man and roared a few times.
When the young man heard Tiemusen speak, he was immediately surprised and said in a voiceless voice: "Senior, has your puppet evolved to the level where it can speak?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan frowned. The other party talked too much and asked endless questions.
The young man seemed unaware and kept asking various questions along the way. Even if Yuwen Zhouyuan didn't answer, he didn't care and kept talking to himself.
The cave passage became larger and larger until it reached the exit at the other end, and the young man kept talking to himself.
Yuwen Zhouyuan really couldn't stand the other party's talking. Seeing that he was talking about it, he immediately flew over and rushed out of the passage. What appeared in front of him was a cave that was slightly smaller than the previous cave.
There are five huge stone pillars in the cave, and a huge red flame floats on each pillar, and a slight warm breath blows towards your face.
On the stone pillar in the middle, there was an old woman sitting upright. She had chicken-skinned hair and a rosy complexion. Her hair automatically fluttered slightly in the absence of wind. As he breathed in and out, traces of red gas floated out of the fireballs on the surrounding stone pillars and penetrated into the fireball.
The old woman got out of her seven orifices in an instant and quickly merged into the stone pillar where he sat down.
It goes back and forth like this, it's weird and unpredictable.
The moment Yuwen Zhouyuan flew into the cave, the old woman suddenly opened her eyes, a flash of light flashed between her eyes, and she stared at Yuwen Zhouyuan carefully.
Yuwen Zhouyuan's spiritual consciousness was swept away, and the old man had the cultivation level of a middle-level real person.
At this time, the young man also quickly entered the cave. When he saw the old man, he immediately clasped his fists respectfully and said: "Elder, this senior just came out of the teleportation array and opened the sixty-three halos. He wants to see the ancestor Bai."
Hearing this, the old man's face changed and his attitude became cold. He looked at Yuwen Zhouyuan strangely and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoist, who opened my Lieyang Sect formation for you?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan looked as usual and said: "Dongfang Yu!"
Upon hearing this name, the old man's expression changed again, and he immediately stood up and asked: "The ancestor of Dongfang Yu who has been missing for hundreds of years? Who is the ancestor of Dongfang Yu?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan glanced at the other party and said calmly: "Personal disciple."
The old man took a breath. Dongfang Yu had a very high seniority in the Lieyang Sect of the Great Chu State. If what the other party said was true, then he would never offend him. Thinking of this, he quickly smiled and said: "It turns out that the junior uncle is returning to the sect.
