After Bai Yunsheng and the two disappeared, in the blink of an eye, the collapsed mountain road miraculously returned to its original appearance.
Not long after, a group of dark figures surrounded the mountain at a height of a hundred feet outside the Five Finger Mountains, looking murderously at the mountain where the mythical beast was incarnated.
A black shadow came from the sky from the mountain, wearing a black robe and a sea of clouds mask. He knelt on one knee in the air and said respectfully to the two leading men in black: "Master Protector, where is Xuanwu?"
It has been found out.”
"very good."
A woman in white said a faint word, her enchanting green eyes stared at the majestic five-fingered peak, and her thin lips curved into a cruel smile.
If Bai Yunsheng had not been sent away, he must be very familiar with this delicate face, because its owner is the Liangmu protector of Yanyu Tower, Ling Yuan!
"Sister Ling, how sure are you?"
Next to Lingyuan floated an old man in red clothes, with a deep voice, dry red hair hanging in the air, thick eyebrows, and a fierce look on his face.
"One hundred percent sure."
Ling Yuan's lolita-like fair face really matches this uncle perfectly.
…
On the other side, Bai Yunsheng and Murong Chen, who were dragged into the ground by Xuanwu, finally woke up. The strong fall made them dizzy, and there were still gold stars in front of their eyes.
Bai Yunsheng shook his head and stood up. He didn't know how deep he had fallen. In front of him was a dark and spacious passage, with gusts of cool wind blowing from both ends of the passage.
Murong Chen quickly stood beside him, gently rubbed his forehead and asked:
"Where is this?"
Bai Yunsheng stared at the cave passage and said: "Maybe it is the underground network tunnel of Xuanwu Mountain. This road should leave here and return to the Xingyun Desert."
"Then let's leave quickly. It's important to find the Sky-Swallowing Beast as soon as possible."
Murong Chen took out a palm-sized luminous pearl from his arms, wrapped it in karma and threw it into the air, instantly dispelling the five feet of darkness around it.
Seeing Murong Chen taking a step forward impatiently, Bai Yunsheng put aside his doubts and followed him.
Indeed, for them, the most important thing at the moment is to find the soil branch and save the Nebula Desert.
But Bai Yunsheng always kept Xuanwu's last words in mind.
As soon as I walked into the dark passage, gusts of cool breeze blew through my clothes. The light of the night pearl was a little weak, but I didn't feel any danger around me.
The two of them walked for about half a stick of incense, and finally a bright light appeared in front of them. Murong Chen couldn't help but speed up his pace. After passing through the bright light, the scene that appeared in front of them made the two of them stunned.
Under the head and body, in all directions, large and small holes were dotted all over, and wisps of hole light extended into deep passages, as if countless eyes were looking at Bai Yunsheng and Murong Chen.
Miss Murong stammered and asked: "Where...is this place?"
Bai Yunsheng was also frightened, but he vaguely guessed the meaning of these caves, and said:
"These cave entrances are buried underground in the Nebula Desert. They are probably a network of roads connecting the entire desert, just like the meridians of humans and demons."
Murong Chen said intelligently: "You mean, these cave entrances can lead to any place in the Nebula Desert?"
Bai Yunsheng didn't speak, just nodded, and then summoned the Heavenly Earth Bead, trying to contain its pressure as much as possible. The earth-yellow bead lingered in the air for a long time, and finally flew towards a hole in the front left.
Bai Yunsheng and Murong Chen looked at each other and hurriedly chased after them.
The fact is just as Bai Yunsheng expected, these caves extending in all directions can really extend to any corner of the Nebula Desert.
At this moment, the two of them had gone in and out of more than a dozen cave entrances under the guidance of the Heaven and Earth Pearl. These passages were of different sizes and widths, some were tens of feet high, and some were as narrow as a person's width.
Traveling through such a complicated underground network, Bai Yunsheng and the two of them no longer knew where to go from east to west, and just followed the Tiantu Pearl in front of them.
It might have been half an hour, but it could have been an hour.
The Tiantu Pearl finally stopped in mid-air. Bai Yunsheng and Murong Chen, who were flying quickly behind it, stopped suddenly and almost collided with each other.
The two took a deep breath and looked at the vague direction.
Murong Chen looked up at the sand above his head and said, "Is the Sky-Swallowing Beast up here?"
Bai Yunsheng also looked at the top of the passage and said, "I hope so. Xuanwu said that Tiantu Bead can lead us to find it. Let's go up and have a look!"
Miss Murong spread her hands and said half-complainingly, half-helplessly: "Go up? How to go up? I don't know how deep underground it is."
"Humph, with the Heaven and Earth Pearl in hand, there is no place in the world that cannot be reached!"
Bai Yunsheng smiled gracefully, grabbed the Tiantu Bead, and pulled Murong Chen's arm. When Miss Murong looked confused, "Huh!" Bai Yunsheng jumped up and took Murong Chen towards the top of the cave.
Miss Murong was unprepared. She screamed and immediately closed her eyes in fear.
When Murong Chen opened her eyes again, the sultry sunshine had already shone on her body.
The desert is like the sea, with rolling yellow sand.
Murong Chen looked around in panic and asked in great surprise: "We are already up?"
Bai Yunsheng put away the origin of earth and responded calmly: "Of course, as long as there is earth energy, the heaven and earth beads can take you unimpeded."
After saying that, Bai Yunsheng looked at the unfamiliar sand sea in front of him. Murong Chen was amazed in his eyes, nodded in understanding, and followed Bai Yunsheng's gaze.
In the desert seven or eight miles away, there were vaguely looming ocher-green boulders. The boulders were grouped together horizontally and vertically, seeming to form some sort of formation.
Miss Murong stared at it for a moment and suddenly shouted: "It's actually here!"
"What's wrong, Sister Savage? Where is this place?"
Bai Yunsheng, an "outsider", didn't know the conditions of the Xingyun Desert.
"Megastone..."
Murong Chen's voice was already trembling, and his bright pupils were flashing with fear.
Bai Yunsheng knew it was not a good place as soon as he heard the name. After hesitating for a while, the two of them flew towards the boulder cairn because this was the only clue left by Tian Tu Zhu.
It looks dim from afar, but mighty when seen up close.
All the boulders standing in the huge stone mound were tens of feet high. Bai Yunsheng and the two stood in front of the formation, as if looking up at the mountains. The sudden feeling of insignificance made their minds dizzy.
"call."
A strange wind blew the yellow sand on the ground, and an ominous premonition hit us.
Murong Chen's handsome face clearly showed hesitation. Although it was her first time to set foot here, its evil reputation has been spread in the Nebula Desert for countless years.
Bai Yunsheng rested his neck and no longer looked up at the huge boulder that was so close. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the giant stone tomb carefully, as if he was recalling something, and murmured in a low voice: "The giant stone tomb..."
Murong Chen said nonchalantly: "Grandpa Wutian once told me that in the south of the Central Plains, at the extreme end of the sand sea, there are tombs buried under huge rocks, and a divine formation from the sky to seal away ghosts and suppress evil spirits. It is a dangerous place. You are not allowed to trespass."
.”
After saying a few words, Bai Yunsheng's curiosity suddenly aroused.
As he approached, he had already observed the entire landscape of the giant stone tomb. It was at least five miles in radius, and fifty miles further to the northwest was the Demon Realm of the Western Wilderness.
Who is buried in such a large cemetery? Why is it buried here?
Just when the two were hesitating whether to enter the cemetery, the heaven and earth beads in Bai Yunsheng's spleen suddenly flashed, as if they had summoned something in the tomb.
This eliminated Bai Yunsheng's last hesitation, and he raised his feet and stepped into the huge stone formation.
Murong Chen couldn't stop him with his outstretched hand, so he had no choice but to follow Bai Yunsheng into the legendary place of death.
