Ye Xuanji looked at these smart people, and actually found a familiar figure among them. He subconsciously exclaimed, "Long Xuanyuan!"
The Patriarch of the Long family in Diannan, this family had been reduced to a marginal power because of their repeated clashes with Tang Zheng. Their influence was limited to Diannan, and their influence in the country was almost negligible.
The few great families in the capital were in imminent danger, how could they have the mood to care about the Long family in Diannan?
Ye Xuanji never thought that he would see Long Xuanyuan here. Ji Wuxiang had actually subdued him, and Ye Xuanji had a rough impression of many of the other people's faces. Although they were not as powerful as the great families, they were still famous figures in the martial arts world.
At this moment, Ye Xuanji understood that Ji Wuxiang was not acting on a whim, but had planned for a long time and made sufficient preparations. Ji Wuxiang would definitely recruit other warriors, and in the future, all warriors would be under Ji Wuxiang's rule to fight against cultivators. What kind of scene would that be?
Just thinking about it made Ye Xuanji feel his blood boil and his fighting spirit soar.
Ji Wuxiang patted Ye Xuanji's shoulder, "From now on, under your feet will be a new world that belongs to us warriors, look forward to it."
Tang Zheng followed the thin line that was invisible to the naked eye and quickly chased after it. Not long after, he actually chased after it outside the capital. This line stretched for thousands of miles, as if it had no end.
This line actually showed signs of weakening, causing Tang Zheng to immediately frown.
Ye Dingdang looked at him in surprise and asked: "What's wrong?"
Tang Zheng fell into silence, but in his heart, he asked the Inner Demons: "Why is this line getting weaker and weaker?"
"This Ming Ye Meiyu is too far away from us. If it wasn't too far away, we would have been able to find her very quickly by following this line. The tracking effect of the Heartbreak Technique is also limited, it is not omnipotent." The Inner Demons explained regretfully.
"Then wouldn't we have worked for nothing?"
"That might not be the case. At least for now, we can follow them," the Inner Demons suggested.
Tang Zheng pondered for a while. He didn't want to give up this great opportunity. He held Ye Dingdang's hand and said, "Dingdang, let's speed up. Then, she felt herself flying like a gust of wind. With a whoosh, she swept up from the ground and rushed into the distance.
At this moment, he was walking as if he was flying. With a tap of his toes, he leaped dozens of meters into the air. In the blink of an eye, he had moved an extremely long distance. He was only slightly slower than Sword Flight.
Ye Dingdang felt the wind blow past her ears. At first, she felt her heart palpitate. Then, hot blood rushed out of her heart and flowed to all her blood vessels, limbs, and bones. In an instant, it filled her entire body.
She snuggled tightly in Tang Zheng's arms, her face flushed with excitement.
The two of them traveled a long distance, crossing mountains and crossing roads. The line was getting weaker and weaker, as if it was about to disappear without a trace.
Suddenly, a mountain peak stood proudly in front of them. This mountain peak was majestic and magnificent. It made people involuntarily sigh at the uncanny workmanship of nature.
"Why does this mountain peak feel so strange?" Ye Dingdang stared at the mountain peak in a daze and muttered to herself.
"What's so strange about it?" Tang Zheng did not understand.
"Ah, this is actually …" Ye Dingdang cried out in surprise. Her beautiful face was flushed red. She covered her cheeks, but her eyes were staring at the mountain peak through the gaps between her fingers.
Tang Zheng was attracted by Ye Dingdang's reaction. He stared at the mountain peak without blinking.
Suddenly, he widened his eyes in realization and said, "So it's this thing."
He finally understood why Ye Dingdang was so shy. It was because this mountain peak was too similar to a man's little brother. It was just that it was covered by dense trees, so it was not so obvious. But if one looked closely for a few minutes, they would discover the mystery.
"This is nothing to be surprised about. There are many such mountains all over the country, and many of them were carved by the ancient people. This is a kind of life totem worship, which was quite popular in the ancient times." Tang Zheng had seen reports on this before, so he tirelessly explained.
Ye Dingdang slowly moved her hands away and said, "The ancient people were really too much. They actually worshipped that."
Tang Zheng chuckled and said, "We can't use the eyes of modern people to figure out the thoughts of the ancient people. That was something that happened naturally in the background of that era. There's nothing to be surprised about."
"Then this mountain peak is also man-made?" Ye Dingdang suppressed her shyness and asked curiously.
"No!" The Inner Demons' voice was the first to answer Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng was slightly stunned and asked, "How do you know?"
"Don't forget, I am the ancient people you are talking about. The life totem worship has been around since ancient times. In ancient times, there was a lack of population. Every tribe hoped to have a prosperous population. So, many people are believers of the life totem worship. "
The Inner Demons continued to explain.
"Many tribes spent a lot of manpower to carve and carve the life totem, just like this mountain peak in front of you. But this is completely different from a naturally formed life totem. A naturally formed life totem is a resource that many tribes would not hesitate to start a war to obtain. For example, this mountain peak in front of you. In ancient times, it was definitely a life totem that many tribes fought over. "
Tang Zheng looked pensive as he stared at the mountain peak. It was hard to imagine that the ancient people would worship this thing so much that they would even start a war.
"What's the benefit of this life totem worship? The ancient people couldn't be fools, right? Why would they fight over something useless? "Tang Zheng asked curiously.
Others might look down on the ancient people, but Tang Zheng had met too many of them. He could not help but sigh that the ancient people were not as ignorant as modern people thought. The ancient people's wisdom was not inferior to modern people. If one really looked at the ancient people, they would be complete idiots.
So, the ancient people would definitely not worship the life totem for no reason. There were no benefits.
The Inner Demons were not stingy with their praise and said, "You are much smarter than the others. You immediately found the key. The life totem worship is of course useful. It can gather the pure Yang energy between heaven and earth and strengthen the tribe's males. This is beneficial to the inheritance of life. The man-made life totem requires a corresponding array to have this effect. The natural life totem is formed by nature. The effect of gathering the pure Yang energy between heaven and earth is very different. "
Tang Zheng was shocked. He was too familiar with the pure Yang energy. Ever since Tian Chanzi lived in his body, the term pure Yang energy often circled in his mind.
He had the Nine Yang Saint Body. His pure Yang energy far exceeded that of ordinary people. If he did not have enough pure Yin energy to balance it, his life would end when he was twenty years old. The pure Yang energy would completely erupt, causing his body to explode and die.
Tang Zheng's cultivation grew stronger day by day, and his pure Yang energy increased day by day. However, he had many women by his side. For the time being, he had enough pure Yin energy to balance the pure Yang energy. So, he was able to escape disaster time and time again.
Now, he was not worried about the pure Yang energy. This was because he was confident that he could suppress it.
After listening to the Inner Demons' introduction, his eyes changed slightly as he looked at the mountain peak and said, "Then the pure Yang energy on this mountain peak is very strong?"
"Of course, this is a life totem that has gathered pure Yang energy for countless years. The pure Yang energy contained within it is immeasurable. You can go and investigate. The residents around this mountain peak are definitely flourishing." The Inner Demons was full of confidence.
The Inner Demons' words were indeed accurate. The residents around this mountain peak had always been flourishing, especially in ancient times, where many families gathered. However, in recent years, due to urbanization, they did not want to have children like in ancient times. Therefore, the population gradually decreased.
Tang Zheng was deep in thought, looking at the weak line that extended towards the mountain peak, he was almost certain that Ye Meiyu was on this mountain peak. Ye Meiyu had come all the way to this mountain peak, she was definitely not on a sightseeing trip, she definitely had a purpose.
He had accidentally discovered this clue, so he had to investigate it. As for the pure Yang energy, Tang Zheng frowned and thought for a while, ignoring this problem.
"Are you worried that this mountain peak will affect your Nine Yang Saint Body?" The Inner Demons immediately saw through Tang Zheng's thoughts and asked straightforwardly.
"Yes!"
"You don't have to worry at all. Although the pure Yang energy contained within the Life Totem is extremely powerful, its effects on the human body are accumulated over time. It's not like you're going to live there for a long time, so how much of an impact will it have on you?" The Inner Demons asked.
This question made Tang Zheng's heart completely at ease. He resolutely decided, "Alright, let's go up the mountain and investigate."
Ye Dingdang looked at him in surprise, "Is there a problem with going up? “
Ye Dingdang understood Tang Zheng very well. From his reaction just now, she could tell that there was definitely a problem.
Tang Zheng smiled and held her hand tightly. He comforted her, "Don't worry, it's fine. The pure Yang energy contained within this mountain peak is extremely strong, but it won't have much of an effect on me. "
"Pure Yang energy?" Ye Dingdang was shocked. She was especially sensitive to this word because it concerned Tang Zheng's life.
Seeing that Tang Zheng wasn't worried, she let out a sigh of relief. She held his hand, "With me here, even if the pure Yang energy causes trouble, I can still adjust your pure Yang energy."
Tang Zheng laughed involuntarily and looked at her gently, "If you want to adjust my pure Yang energy, you'll have plenty of opportunities after we return."
"Annoying!" Ye Dingdang rolled her eyes at him in a flirtatious manner.
Tang Zheng's head shook. He quickly suppressed his impulse and said, "Let's go up the mountain."
The two of them moved as fast as lightning. They stepped on the towering treetops and flew towards the peak of the mountain, leaving behind only two afterimages.
Whoosh!
The two of them stopped at the same time and hid themselves in a treetop. The dense foliage covered the two of them and prevented them from being discovered.
Holding his breath, he looked over. On the peak of the mountain, there were many people gathered. They stood around the peak with serious expressions. Among them, there were two familiar figures that immediately attracted Tang Zheng's gaze.
