Bai Yunsheng covered his figure with a wind and cloud mask and rushed towards the main peak of Zhaoyao Mountain.
The journey was smooth and uneventful, without encountering any meaningful obstacles.
"It seems the news is accurate. That guy Jin Tu really gutted his own nest in order to win."
Bai Yunsheng was thinking to himself, and he suddenly felt a bit of luck. He no longer hid his figure, his karma was sufficient, and he used all seven killing steps.
"Whoosh." An invisible air current passed rapidly through the barren mountains and ridges, leaving behind a string of vibrations in the air, but no one could be seen.
Regarding the devouring of karma in his body, Bai Yunsheng has given up on stopping it - because he can't stop it. Since he can't stop it, he might as well use his power when and where it is needed.
In less than half a day, Bai Yunsheng had already seen the towering Python Peak.
He immediately hid his figure. Even though the base camp of the Fat Relics was empty at the moment, he must not be careless. Even if all those left on the mountain were old, weak, sick and disabled, the sheer number of them would kill him.
On the ridge outside the mountain, Bai Yunsheng carefully examined the terrain of Wuwei Peak, and slowly seemed to find some clues.
Along the way, all the hills of Zhaoyao Mountain, big and small, are actually connected to each other.
Although the rules and shapes are ever-changing, the connection has not been broken until the extension of Wuwei Peak.
A few moments.
Bai Yunsheng smiled mysteriously and said to himself:
"So that's it."
He speculated that the Zhaoyao Mountain with a radius of hundreds of miles was winding and winding, and all the mountains were connected together to form a natural snake, and the five-tailed peak was where the snake's head was!
This made Bai Yunsheng feel happy - this time he decided to investigate alone for two purposes. One was to find out whether the void in Zhaoyao Mountain was really true, and the other was to find the legendary dragon vein in Zhaoyao Mountain!
Although Feiyi is a snake, he has been claiming to be a descendant of the sacred wood beast Qinglong for generations, and he claims to have the blood of the sacred beast. It is said that Zhaoyao Mountain was once the habitat of Qinglong, so there has always been a legend that there is an ancient dragon vein in the mountain.
It is precisely because of the blessing of the dragon vein that the Feiyi clan is able to rank among the eight royal clans in the Yidi Mountain Demon Territory, calling the wind and rain, and prospering for generations.
"Hmph! It's really ridiculous that a little reptile dares to climb into the bloodline of a divine beast."
Bai Yunsheng sneered in his heart. He had seen Qinglong himself. With Qinglong's violent temper, if Zhaoyaoshan dared to talk nonsense, he would have been killed countless times.
Without thinking any more, Bai Yunsheng dived and climbed to Wuwei Peak.
The rocks on this main mountain are rougher, the forests are more wild, and all kinds of unnamed snakes and insects are more rampant.
On the wet mountain road, white clouds jumped up and down in a "swishing" way. Every few miles, they would stop and stay for a while before continuing to climb up.
There is only one road up the mountain, with nine twists and turns, really like a giant snake lying on the mountain. In the cracks in the rocks on the roadside, and on the entangled tree branches, snakes of different colors are crawling, hanging, and swinging.
There are snakes, black and white, red, green and purple flowers, all kinds of colors, but there is no normal color.
"Hiss."
The sound of countless snakes spitting out their cores gathered together, which was very permeable in this silent mountain.
Bai Yunsheng ignored these poisonous snakes that had not yet transformed, and just focused on paying attention to the bright posts and hidden whistles on the road.
As expected, these demon soldiers left behind were all miscellaneous fish with low cultivation levels.
Bai Yunsheng arrived at the top of the mountain smoothly, his eyes swept up the hundreds of steps, and when he looked up, he saw a huge cave twenty feet high torn in front of his eyes.
Bai Yunsheng took a closer look, and his heart suddenly became cold. The cave turned out to be the bloody mouth of a big snake, and its white venomous snake teeth were tightly clasped on the rock, shimmering with cold light.
Putting away the Seven Killing Steps, Bai Yunsheng carefully walked up the hundred stone steps.
In the fresh mountain wind, waves of unpleasant fishy stench floated from the dark "Shekou", making people feel sick and shudder.
The flat land in front of the cave is about one mile in diameter, with many side halls on both sides. Behind the many halls, there is a wider and wider open space.
There are three complicated handwritings carved on the rock between the two fangs. It is difficult to identify. Bai Yunsheng didn't recognize it after looking at it for a long time. It seems that it is not the current writing. Of course he will not recognize it. This has been in the Demonic Domain of Yidi Mountain for a long time.
The writing left by previous civilizations belongs to the distant ancient times, and its meaning is: Snake Palace.
Bai Yunsheng's mind turned to the Eternal Sword again. This was already the hinterland of Zhaoyao Mountain, where restrictions and traps could appear at any time, and any slightest carelessness could cost him his life.
However, what really caught his attention at this time was not the sense of danger in the dangerous situation, but the sculpture of a dragon head standing dozens of feet away in front of the cave entrance.
The huge sculpture seems to have an aura of prehistoric times, with a fierce and domineering look overlooking the common people, coming from ancient times.
Bai Yunsheng just stared for a while, and then almost fainted from the mental impact.
He shook his head hard, mentioned his karma, cleared away the inexplicable fear rising in his consciousness, and looked carefully at the stone sculpture of the dragon's head in front of him.
The horse head, antlers, two long beards are bent, and a pair of dragon eyes are like two black jade inlaid on the purple stone, crystal clear and shining with a breathtaking light.
The flamboyant dragon's beard is flying behind the dragon's head, and the dragon's mouth is wide open, as if bursts of dragon breath are spitting out.
The majesty of the divine beasts of heaven and earth suddenly descended, making Bai Yunsheng unable to help but kneel down and worship.
The body of the dragon, which is about two feet under the dragon's head, is tinged with a faint blood-red color. If you look closely, you can see that there is a faint light flowing in the dragon scales carved on the stone, like flowing blood.
Bai Yunsheng looked sideways, and behind the dragon head was the fang hall. On both sides of the hall stood two rows of straight demon soldiers, holding long halberds and looking seriously.
This dragon head sculpture has experienced countless years of erosion and turmoil, but it still stands on the top of the mountain and is still lifelike. Bai Yunsheng can't help but admire the sculptor's superb craftsmanship.
After looking at it for a long time, he even had an illusion in his mind - this sculpture was not from the Demon Realm at all, nor was it made by anyone.
It is a living dragon sealed here, petrified by time, and turned into a lifeless stone.
At this thought, Bai Yunsheng couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Is this the dragon vein? Impossible. Even if there is a dragon vein here, it cannot be placed in such a conspicuous place. There is no way that the Fat Yi clan has anything to do with the green dragon beast.
If there is really a dragon vein here, it should have another purpose. Could it be..."
Bai Yunsheng immediately thought of the Shuiyuan branch that Shangguanhong took him to see when he was in Qingqiu Mountain.
Then he remembered what Yin Yisheng had told him about the Three Ancient Clan, that the Fat Yi Clan had always been supported by the Earth Beast Clan, and he suddenly realized.
It is very likely that this five-tailed peak also seals another branch of the Five Elements origin in the Demon Realm.
Bai Yunsheng touched the tip of his nose and speculated in his heart: "It is said that Fatty is related to Qinglong. Is it a branch of Mubenyuan?"
His hidden figure stood under the huge dragon head. After thinking for a while, he no longer hesitated and decided to take the risk and sneak into the Snake Palace to explore.
There is no doubt that the defense of Zhaoyao Mountain is empty, but the dragon vein has not yet been found.
If the legendary dragon veins are cut off, even if their sneak attack succeeds this time and they smash Mount Zhaoyao to pieces and slaughter them into rivers of blood, the fat survivors will still have a chance to stand up.
The dragon vein is there, and the swagger is there.
Before coming, Bai Yunsheng had conspired with Shangguan Hong. But the Eight Lords of the Demon Realm didn't know where the dragon veins of Zhaoyao Mountain were.
According to Shangguan Hong, most of the snake monsters from the Fat Yi clan have only heard about them and have never actually seen dragon veins.
Bai Yunsheng was just about to start when suddenly, the Changsheng Sword that had been lying quietly behind his back shook weakly for a few times. Then, the Tianshui beads hidden in his kidneys also flashed bursts of blue light, as if they didn't want him to leave.
Shocked by the changes in the Eternal Life Sword and the Heavenly Water Pearl, Bai Yunsheng immediately retracted his steps, looked at the vivid dragon head sculpture in front of him in surprise, and said to himself in disbelief:
"There is a strange change in the Tianshui Pearl. It seems that this Zhaoyao Mountain is really unusual. Is it really a branch of the original source? If so, the location of the branch should be where the Dragon Vein is."
Bai Yunsheng came to a conclusion, but doubts arose again.
"But……"
What puzzled him was why the Tianshui Pearl reacted in front of the dragon head sculpture.
"Could it be that the real dragon vein is really this dragon head in broad daylight? This is too hasty. If some blind guy accidentally smashes this stone, won't the dragon vein be destroyed?"
Bai Yunsheng was thinking simply, and inexplicably stretched out his hand to touch the dragon head sculpture.
Just when his fingers touched the smooth dragon's whiskers, a strange feeling suddenly came to his fingertips.
It's like piercing a layer of window paper with your fingers.
Bai Yunsheng's palm miraculously penetrated the sculpture.
The place where it was poked was like a circle of ripples on the surface of the water.
Bai Yunsheng suppressed the shock in his heart, and boldly took a step forward, disappearing into the dragon head sculpture.
When he opened his sight again, a long corridor appeared in front of Bai Yunsheng. Two strings of torches were hung on the walls on both sides, and orange flames danced on the torches.
The corridor is made of yellow rocks piece by block, tightly fitted, clean, and without a trace of dust. The torches are a bit far away, and there is deep darkness in front of them, and the end of the corridor cannot be seen.
"Sure enough, there is another mystery in this place. If I hadn't brought the Tianshui Bead with me, I would never have discovered it."
While Bai Yunsheng was rejoicing, he wondered again and again why the Eternal Life Sword would move strangely. Could it be that it was also attracted by the original energy?
He took a deep breath, put away his random thoughts, karma spread throughout his body, hid his body, and took the first step carefully.
If this place really leads to the legendary dragon vein in Wuwei Peak, it will definitely not be a simple secret passage.
But to Bai Yuncheng's surprise, it was just a simple secret passage - he walked along the light of the fire for several miles without any danger.
There was deathly silence all around. Apart from hearing his own breathing and heartbeat, he could even hear the sound of the flames burning on the torches.
I don’t know what materials these torches are made of, I don’t know what kind of fire these fires are, and I don’t know how long they have been burning in this dark place and they still do not go out.
"Am I too worried?"
The safe and quiet environment made Bai Yunsheng's heart slightly relieved, but he still didn't dare to land.
We walked for another half an hour - maybe longer.
Finally, a faint light appeared in the front.
Different from the color of the fire on the torch, it is the color of daytime.
Bai Yunsheng quickly raised his right hand and grasped the longevity sword behind his back, ready to strike at any time.
This is an important area of the Dragon Vein. If there is no mechanism, there must be an expert guarding it. If he is defeated soon, he will have to escape quickly. At least he has learned the possible direction of the Dragon Vein, and can wait for the round with the Seventh Elder before making a decision.
The light is getting closer.
The sweat in Bai Yunsheng's palms became wet and dry, and his black pupils stared nervously, unable to take his eyes away.
Gradually, a layer of faint white light enveloped him, and Bai Yunsheng slowly passed through the wall of light and saw the sky again.
However, what he saw in front of him shocked him to the core.
This is actually the top of Wuwei Peak, where he stood not long ago.
The huge dragon head sculpture stands majestically, and nothing has changed.
The bloody Shekou Grottoes are still there, and even the two rows of monster soldiers standing at the entrance of the cave are still the same.
Bai Yunsheng was confused for a moment and murmured in his heart: "What... was I doing just now?"
It was like he had a brief dream while opening and closing his eyes. After walking through the corridor of unknown length, he actually returned to the same place.
"What on earth is going on?"
Bai Yunsheng muttered unbelievingly in his heart, then touched the dragon head sculpture with his fingers, and got in smoothly again.
If you look at it from Wuwei Peak, it is actually only the time for a cup of tea.
Bai Yunsheng emerged from the sculpture again.
But from Bai Yunsheng's perspective, he walked the long secret passage all over again.
Same flame, same end result.
Bai Yunsheng resisted the urge to swear. He thought he could easily find the location of the dragon's veins, but he didn't expect that he would take the lead and have a happy time in the air, and he would be fooled around.
"Who is causing trouble? I don't believe in evil!"
Bai Yunsheng cursed secretly in his heart and dodged directly into the sculpture.
Same time.
same space.
Even though Bai Yunsheng was running fast in the corridor, the outside world still only lasted for a cup of tea.
His figure appeared intact again.
Drilled in again and came back without success again.
Bai Yunsheng went back and forth in this fruitless maze seven times before giving up.
His two eyebrows were tightly knitted together. Bai Yunsheng lowered his head and thought: "Is there another way in the secret passage? This is not the way to go. We must find the location of the dragon vein, otherwise the trouble we will create will not be enough for that guy Jintu to see."
Bai Yunsheng thought about it for a while, but still had no clue.
He decided to go in and take another look. If there was still no result, he would sneak into the main hall and have a look. Maybe he would find something else.
This time Bai Yunsheng got his wish.
He appeared under the dragon head sculpture again, exhaled two breaths from his nostrils, turned his head, no longer looking at the marvelous dragon head, and prepared to sneak into the Snake Palace to take a look.
But as soon as he took a step, Bai Yunsheng changed his attention.
"You're a stone carving, you've wasted so much of my time, you can't do it without some blood."
Bai Yunsheng thought bitterly, pulled out the longevity sword, jumped up high, and slashed towards the dragon's head.
But something even stranger happened.
There was no sound around, and the Changsheng Sword passed through the dragon's head without any hindrance, cutting off half of the dragon's horn.
And this actually did not attract the slightest attention from the demon soldiers in front of the hall.
Bai Yun glanced at the broken horn angrily, turned around and was about to kill the demon soldiers.
Suddenly, bursts of small friction sounds were heard, and just below the dragon's head, a gap opened in the originally intact stone surface.
Seeing this strange thing, Bai Yunsheng hurriedly stepped over, squatted on the ground, and stared at the crack.
The gap was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly, except for the occasional warm airflow.
This time Bai Yunsheng felt happy, and he thought in surprise: "It seems that this is the real entrance of the dragon vein. As long as the dragon head is cut off, the entire entrance of the cave should appear."
"good!"
Bai Yunsheng's "lofty ambition" suddenly rekindled, he stood up and rolled up his sleeves, just about to prepare for a big fight.
At this moment, a sound of rolling thunder suddenly sounded in the sky:
"Who are you, junior? You dare to break into the forbidden area of my holy mountain!"
Bai Yunsheng was shocked by the roaring sound, and his blood surged. He was extremely horrified and said in his heart: "Who is it? There is such a master on Wuwei Peak!"
The visitor defeated Bai Yunsheng just by his voice.
This master of Zhaoyao Mountain not only easily saw through Bai Yunsheng's concealment, but he also had the ability to turn clouds and rain.
In just this moment, the top of Wuwei Peak was already filled with wind and clouds, and the strong wind swept up waves of yellow sand and rocks.
The demon soldiers guarding in front of the main hall were no strangers either. Hundreds of them quickly gathered and started searching everywhere. It looked like they were well-trained.
But their strength is not enough to discover Bai Yunsheng's hiding place.
Bai Yunsheng had already run down the mountain the moment the "thunder" fell.
An opponent of this level is definitely not something he can defeat.
The Seven Killing Steps were activated at full power, and Bai Yunsheng was rushing through the mountains and forests at lightning speed, regardless of what was going on around him.
Everything is about escaping.
In just a few breaths, Bai Yunsheng had already reached the halfway point of Wuwei Peak.
After a while, he had reached the foot of Wuwei Peak.
Fortunately, the powerful man with unpredictable strength did not come after him, which made him secretly relieved.
After half a stick of incense, Bai Yunsheng couldn't hold on any longer. The karma in his body had reached its peak, and his steps were as fast as flying.
"Boom!" His feet suddenly softened, and he crashed sideways into the rock in front of him.
In an instant, rubble flew and dust filled the ground, creating a crater several feet deep in the mountain col.
Bai Yunsheng's body was embedded in the rock and he was motionless, breathing fiercely from his mouth, as if he had returned to the days when he practiced the Seven Kills Steps at the Seven Kills Peak.
In that moment of running for his life, he ran hundreds of miles away.
After confirming that there were no pursuers behind him, Bai Yunsheng rectified himself for a while and hurried towards the camp.
An hour later, he met the two fox demons Chen Qingfeng and Jiang Tao.
After a brief greeting, Bai Yunsheng sat down in the cave.
Neither of the two demons spoke. They were all top-notch experts in the Green Soul Realm. They had experienced hundreds of years of life and death. One look at Bai Yunsheng's face and they had already guessed the same.
The three of them were silent for a while until Bai Yunsheng woke up from his meditation:
"Almost all the masters on Zhaoyao Mountain have been sent to the front line. The ones left in the mountain now are all weaker monsters. I also discovered the entrance to the dragon vein, but..."
Bai Yunsheng paused for a while, hesitating whether to say anything, but finally he said:
"But when I left, I met a person with a very high level of cultivation, at least reaching the strength of the Blue Spirit Realm. He should be the big demon guarding the Dragon Vein, and would not leave easily, so I was able to escape by chance."
Bai Yunsheng spoke very slowly. He wanted to see the reaction of the two demons Chen Qingfeng.
But he was disappointed. The two demon cultivators just listened quietly, with expressionless faces and not saying a word.
Bai Yunsheng rolled his eyes depressedly and said, "Is there any news from the seventh elder?"
This time Chen Qingfeng spoke, he said:
"Shortly after you left, the Seventh Elder came once, explained a few words and then left. He should be on Wuwei Peak now. He will appear when he said he should appear."
This made Bai Yunsheng's anxious heartbeat relax a lot.
After all, the Seventh Elder is the most powerful demon who has reached the Purple Soul Realm, and is definitely not comparable to ordinary demon cultivators.
With him here, Snow God Guard should be able to attack with peace of mind.
"Okay!" Bai Yunsheng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Give the order, the Snow God Guard will be divided into two, and you two will each lead 2,500 people, and the troops will be divided into two groups. Chen Qingfeng will lead the team to attack the main mountain.
In the palace, Jiang Tao leads his troops to clean up the enemies in other places in Wuwei Peak. Remember not to be too eager to fight, not to be in a stalemate, and to fight to a quick victory. We will set off in two hours!"
Bai Yunsheng gave the order cleanly and neatly.
This was his first time leading troops. At the end of the sentence, his voice suddenly turned cold:
"Remember, leave no one behind."
When he said these six words, Bai Yunsheng's black pupils flashed with a cold light, and he pronounced a life and death sentence on the creatures on Wuwei Peak.
The two demons Chen Qingfeng immediately knelt down on one knee and said forcefully:
"As you command!"
After saying that, the two demons left the cave and deployed their battle plan.
Bai Yunsheng still knew little about the specific combat strategies of the Snow God Guards. He could only give general direction, and the rest had to rely on Chen Qingfeng and Jiang Tao.
Thinking of the war that was about to start, Bai Yunsheng was already excited and felt that the blood in his body was boiling uncontrollably.
"Jintu, I'm going to let your fat remnants cut off their descendants and the divine beast bloodline in a moment? Humph! I'll cut off your dragon bloodline later! Let's see how you can be so arrogant!"
Under the silver Fengyun mask, Bai Yunsheng revealed a creepy smile that even he himself didn't notice.
