Jiang Xuansu conveyed the reason for the sealing of Qizhou to several ancestors of the sect, and did not tell Lin Bai that his conjecture might be related to the "heart of gods and demons".
Several ancestors made a concerted effort and decided to stay in Qizhou for a few days without leaving in a hurry. They also told Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu to take the gods and demons away if they had the chance.
Therefore, after Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu left Nanyi City, they did not immediately return to the Border Mountains. Instead, based on Lin Bai's inference, they headed towards Dusk City.
Dusk City is located in the southeast of Qizhou. Although it is not one of the main cities in Qizhou, it is backed by the Dusk Mountains, has rich products and developed trade, and is quite famous in Qizhou.
The fastest way to reach dusk from Nanyi City is undoubtedly to take the teleportation array.
Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu did not have the identity tokens of the twenty-seven states of Yunling. It would be inconvenient to take the teleportation array, and they would also be targeted by the warriors of the Li family of Yunling.
After much thought, Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu decided to fly away directly, and they could also inquire about other news along the way.
Fortunately, Nanyi City and Dusk City are not far apart. It takes Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu three days to reach them.
The borders of Qizhou were closed, the cities were sealed, and there were no traces of warriors in the mountains, forests and wilderness.
From Nanyicheng to Dusk City, Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu passed through several mountains stretching for thousands of miles, but they never saw anyone.
"The Dusk Mountains are ahead!"
Lin Bai took out the map and checked it carefully. In front of him was a mountain range with thousands of towering peaks, majestic mountains, green shades covering the sky, and miasma-filled mountains. These were the famous Dusk Mountains in Qizhou.
The twenty-seven prefectures of Yunling are rich in natural materials and treasures, and there is an inexhaustible supply of miraculous elixirs in the mountains and fields, which is why the legend of "Evil Moon Medicine Furnace" was created.
There are many treasures in the Dusk Mountains, especially the "Twilight Yuanhua" and "Longling Yuanshen Grass" which are very famous. They are the main materials for refining Taoist realm elixirs. There are only three or five places in Xie Yue Qianzhou.
can be found, one of which is the Dusk Mountains.
Under the governance of the twenty-seven states of Yunling, the powerful demon clan in the Dusk Mountains were either killed by the Li family or expelled by the Li family. Therefore, there are no demons above the Taoist realm in the Dusk Mountains at all.
clan.
After expelling the demon clan, the Li family knew the importance of the Dusk Mountains, so they sent many strong men to guard the Dusk Mountains.
After crossing the Dusk Mountains, on the other side is Dusk City.
After carefully checking the map and confirming that it was correct, Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu rushed into the Twilight Mountains and headed straight for Twilight City.
The two of them were like meteors passing by in the sky, very fast, exuding the aura of Taoist realm cultivation, causing many monsters in the mountains and forests below to shrink their heads and not dare to visit, for fear that these two powerful Taoist realms would come together.
In anger, they burned their lair in a pot.
Not long after, Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu passed by a rushing river in the dusk mountains and saw a young man in white robes standing on a rock, with his hands behind his back, looking at the turbid water in front of him with a smile.
When Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu passed by in the sky, the man in white raised his head slightly and took a look.
Just this glance gave Lin Bai the feeling of a sword rubbing against his neck.
"Do you feel it?" Jiang Xuansu narrowed his eyes and looked down at the river below.
Lin Bai's face remained calm, he glanced down and met the eyes of the man in white.
The two smiled and nodded, and the man in white withdrew his gaze and continued to stare at the river in front of him.
"This person is either a great demon that cannot be cultivated in the Twilight Mountains, or he is a strong man from the Li family in Yunling guarding this place!"
After the Dusk Mountain Range was occupied by the Li family, they sent strong men to guard the place to prevent the treasures here from being taken away by others.
The man in white whom Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu met now had a restrained aura and could not tell whether he was a human or a demon, but his cultivation was profound and unpredictable.
Just the look he looked at Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu just now gave Lin Bai a sense of crisis as if he was being stared at by a strong Taiyi Dao Fruit man.
Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu did not stop for much, and continued to gallop forward, heading towards Dusk City.
"Now I am even more sure that if the remnants of the Zhao family got the hearts of gods and demons, they would definitely still be in Twilight City." After seeing the man in white, Lin Bai was even more sure of his previous guess.
The remnants of the Zhao family must still be in Dusk City.
Jiang Xuansu nodded in deep agreement: "The area around Twilight City is guarded by warriors sent by the Li family. They have absolutely no confidence that they can escape from the Li family's trap. If they are smart enough, hiding in Twilight City will definitely be the best option."
Good choice!"
"But you can't hide it for too long."
"Senior Sister Jiang actually started to use her brain?" Lin Bai said with an overjoyed smile: "Yes, with the Li family's ability, the Li family will be able to search Twilight City carpet-like in less than half a month. By then, the remaining members of the Zhao family will
If you haven't escaped yet, you will be dead."
Now eight days have passed since the time when the hearts of gods and demons were taken away.
The Li family must be searching for traces of the remnants of the Zhao family in the city at dusk. This is the most critical moment for the remnants of the Zhao family.
They currently have only two choices, either to continue hiding in Twilight City and risk the Li family not being able to find them.
Or risk your life and escape from the Twilight City, use various methods to scatter like birds and beasts, and protect the gods and demons from leaving.
Undoubtedly, these two choices are extremely dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be in catastrophe.
"I wonder if the remnants of the Zhao family will send someone to pick them up."
Lin Bai had guessed before that the remnants of the Zhao family who came to Twilight City to take away the hearts of gods and demons must only have a small group of people, and it was impossible to touch a large number of people, otherwise it would attract the attention of all forces.
Passing through the mountains at dusk, Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu saw a majestic city dominating the land in front of them.
The city is a hundred feet high and imposing, with a transparent white light curtain covering the entire city.
Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu came to the city gate, raised their hands and said, "The two of us are coming from Nanyi City to visit relatives in Dusk City. Please give us permission to enter the city."
The soldiers on the city shouted in a cold voice: "The city is closed at dusk and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Please go back."
Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu looked at each other, did not speak any more, clasped their fists and thanked them, then turned and left the city.
The two of them came to Twilight City secretly, and if the news about the God and Demon Heart was true, they would still have to participate in the fight, so naturally they could not come as disciples of the Eternal Demon Sect.
"If you can't get in, what should you do?" Jiang Xuansu asked with a frown after leaving the city gate far away.
Lin Bai was also confused by this.
If they can't enter Twilight City, they won't be able to find any more clues, and their visit to Twilight City will be in vain.
Just when the two of them were at a loss what to do, suddenly... at dusk, there was a shaking of the ground in the city.
It seems that someone is attacking the city defense formation.
