Because the formation was really big, the two of them seemed small at the edge. Countless formation patterns densely covered the formation. It seemed to be a compound formation made up of many formations.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuan's master didn't lie to them. The light emitted by the Formation Breaking Flag merged into the formation. Specks of light appeared in the formation and gradually formed a bright path in the air, guiding the two of them forward.
Seeing this, the two of them looked at each other and began to move forward along the path. Not long after, they were completely inside the formation.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two of them finally saw the end. Using their movement techniques, they disappeared into the formation.
After exiting the formation, the two of them increased their vigilance and observed their surroundings.
They saw a mountain path in front of them. Around the mountain path were strange trees with strange appearances. The lower half of the tree was like a person bending over, while the upper half was vertical. The entire tree was covered with icicles, giving off an indescribable sense of beauty.
"This place is quite beautiful," Jiang Yuan muttered.
"Mm, let's go ahead and have a look," Yang Li replied noncommittally and continued forward. Jiang Yuan hurriedly followed.
The two of them didn't walk for long before they saw a mountain gate. On top of it, there were three words: Snow Wind Sect!
However, the two of them saw an even more shocking scene. Under the mountain gate, there were two people standing!
Yang Li and Jiang Yuan couldn't help but suck in a cold breath. They stood in place, not daring to act rashly. They carefully observed the two of them. However, not long after, Yang Li discovered something strange.
Normally, when disciples guarded the mountain gate, they would chat with each other. But the two people standing under the mountain gate didn't move. Not only did their feet not move, even their mouths didn't move at all.
A bold idea arose in Yang Li's mind. He walked forward. Yang Li walked into the line of sight of the two of them. The two of them still didn't move. This made Yang Li even more certain of his idea.
Displaying his movement technique, he arrived before the two of them. Seeing that, Jiang Yuan was shocked. He hastily displayed his movement technique to follow.
Yang Li carefully looked at the appearance of the two people in front of him. They wore the same white robes with a snowflake embroidered on them. Their bodies were covered in a thin layer of frost. Their faces were stiff and their eyes were empty. Their mouths were slightly closed and their hands were behind their backs as they stared blankly at the mountain path before them.
Even though the two of them were standing in front of them, they didn't react at all. When Jiang Yuan arrived in front of them and saw the situation, he didn't say anything. He simply followed behind Yang Li.
Yang Li saw that both of them had Qiankun Bags hanging on their waists, so he used his spiritual power to remove the Qiankun Bags.
Kacha.
A strange sound suddenly rang out, and the ice on the two disciples' bodies shattered. Their originally upright bodies fell straight down.
Yang Li glanced at the corpses of the two disciples and didn't pay any more attention to them. Instead, he opened up their Qiankun Bags and examined them carefully.
The things in the Qiankun Bags were well-preserved. There were dozens of spiritual stones, some elixirs, and miscellaneous items. However, elixirs weren't suitable for them to use. They were only suitable for people who practiced ice-type internal techniques.
Realizing that there wasn't anything useful, Yang Li casually threw the Qiankun Bags into his spatial ring. Then, he said to Jiang Yuan, "Jiang Yuan, dig a hole on the mountain and bury them."
"Yes, Big Brother." When Jiang Yuan heard Yang Li's words, he used his spiritual power to blast a big hole at the side and moved the two disciples' corpses inside. Then, he moved the soil over and covered the corpses.
"Alright, let's go." Seeing that everything was settled, Yang Li continued to walk inside.
Along the way, the two of them saw a few more similar corpses. Because of the previous example, Yang Li and Jiang Yuan didn't panic when they saw people again. Instead, the suspicion in their hearts grew stronger and stronger.
"Did this Snowwind Sect attract a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?" As the two of them went deeper, they saw more and more things. As they turned a corner, they saw the next scene. Yang Li couldn't help but mutter to himself.
What appeared in front of the two was a plaza. There was a stone arch door on the left, right, and front of the plaza. In the middle was a parterre, and in the middle of the parterre was a large stone tablet with eight majestic words engraved on it.
"Only the wind and snow remain unchanged for a thousand years!"
The large words on the stone tablet gave off a bone-chilling feeling. If one stared at them for a long time, they would even feel their scalp go numb.
Apart from that, there was a frozen scene. Some disciples were walking, some were talking and laughing with the people beside them. Their smiles were still frozen on their faces. There were also disciples looking outside the mountain gate, as if they wanted to step out of the sect.
This scene caused the two of them to be extremely shocked. The two of them observed one by one and found that all the disciples were covered in a thin layer of frost. They didn't know if it was because of the cold environment or some other reason.
Yang Li suppressed the shock in his heart and moved the bodies of all the disciples together. The frost on the disciples' bodies also broke, leaving behind only ice shards on the ground. Yang Li then put away all the Cosmos Bags and used his spiritual power to blast a big hole on the ground, burying the bodies.
After doing this, Yang Li looked through all the Cosmos Bags, wanting to see if there was anything that could explain the situation in front of him. However, the result disappointed him.
Yang Li looked at the door again and said to Jiang Yuan, "Jiang Yuan, you go left and I'll go right. We'll split up and search. Two days later, we'll gather here and go to the Scripture Pavilion."
Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay." Then, he used his movement technique and flew towards the stone arch on the left. Yang Li also followed him to the right.
As the two of them disappeared from the square, a pair of eyes suddenly appeared at the top of the stone monument in the center of the square. The eyes were filled with sorrow and vicissitudes. At the same time, a soft voice floated in the air.
"It's been eighty thousand years. The murderer who killed thirty thousand disciples of my Snow Wind Sect should be dead now. However, who will avenge my Snow Wind Sect? Thirty thousand corpses, they died with their eyes wide open! "
The pair of eyes looked at the two stone arches again. The actions of the two of them appeared in his eyes.
"Little guy, thank you two for collecting the corpses of my Snow Wind Sect's disciples. If I have the chance to return to the world, I will definitely repay you two. Thank you."
… …
After separating from Jiang Yuan, Yang Li continued to explore the Snow Wind Sect. Everyone seemed to have died while doing their own things. All of their eyes were empty, as if their souls had been directly obliterated by someone. There was not a trace of injury on everyone's body.
"If it was a natural disaster, then what did the Snow Wind Sect do to anger the heavens and the people? If it was a man-made disaster, then the person who caused it was a bit too terrifying. "Yang Li thought to himself.
"But if it was a man-made disaster, then why weren't all the resources collected?"
Yang Li became even more confused. The entire Snow Wind Sect had become a great mystery. On the way, Yang Li collected who knew how many disciples, elders, and attendants' Qiankun Pouches and rings. Just the spirit stones alone were in the hundreds of thousands. There were also some other miscellaneous items that he had yet to calculate.
There was also a strange situation that puzzled Yang Li. The stronger the person, the thicker the frost on their body. But no matter how thin or thick the frost on their body was, it would shatter upon contact.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Although Yang Li still did not find the cause of the Snow Wind Sect's situation, nor did he finish exploring the Snow Wind Sect, the time was up. He had to go back and meet up with Jiang Yuan. So he turned around and rushed back the way he came.
Not long after, he appeared on the square. Jiang Yuan was already waiting for him there. After seeing Yang Li, Jiang Yuan frowned and said, "Big brother, this Snow Wind Sect is too strange. Everyone is the same, as if they suddenly died."
"I also noticed this problem, but I don't know what the reason is right now. Let's not worry about it for now. The disciples of the Cloud Sect are about to come in. Let's first collect all the cultivation methods in the Scripture Pavilion and then explore." Yang Li said with a serious expression.
"Okay, but do you know where the Scripture Pavilion is? Big brother. "After responding, Jiang Yuan asked doubtfully.
"It should be from the door in the middle. Let's go take a look." Yang Li said.
The two of them immediately rushed towards the door in the middle. Everyone they saw was collected into their Cosmos Sack. Then, they found a suitable place to bury all the corpses.
At this time, the pair of eyes appeared on top of the stone monument again. A voice that no one could hear murmured in a low voice, "Is there anyone else coming? Then let's kill a despicable person and help him live this life again. "
"Hahaha! Xue family of the central region, wait for my revenge! How can I not take revenge for the thirty thousand disciples of the Snow Wind Sect! "The sick laughter mixed with bone-deep hatred lightly echoed.
… …
Yang Li and Jiang Yuan searched for an entire day and buried who knew how many corpses before finally finding the location of the Scripture Pavilion.
A tower that was nine stories tall appeared in front of the two of them. It gave off an ancient and majestic feeling. An old man sat cross-legged below the Scripture Pavilion. His eyes were tightly shut and his hair and brows were all white. He floated slightly backwards. It seemed that he had been meditating and cultivating when he was alive, trying to obtain the power of the Great Path.
"Old man, please rest in peace." Yang Li took off the Space Ring from the old man's hand and used his spiritual energy to control the old man to levitate. He dug a large hole where the old man sat and placed him inside. Then, he covered the hole with soil and cleaned up the place as if no one had ever been there.
Yang Li didn't even have time to look through the spatial ring before he brought Jiang Yuan to the Scripture Pavilion.
When they arrived at the door, Jiang Yuan excitedly pushed it open. To his surprise, a beam of light suddenly burst out and swept towards Jiang Yuan. It bound him up and pulled him to the right side of the Sutra Depository. Following that, an array formation appeared beneath his feet.
"Holy shit! What's going on! " Jiang Yuan, who was bound by the formation, struggled desperately to break free. Yang Li also hurried over to help Jiang Yuan.
However, as Jiang Yuan struggled harder and harder, the binding became tighter and tighter. Jiang Yuan was so scared that he didn't dare to move.
Yang Li frowned and directly opened his Space Ring. He looked through the formation bookshelf and wanted to find a way to help Jiang Yuan escape.
Before Yang Li finished looking through half of the bookshelf, Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and said in an extremely calm voice, "Brother Yang Li! Don't worry about me first. This formation should only target the person who opened the door. Otherwise, you would also be tied up here. "
"Now that the door has been opened by me, I can't find a way to solve it in a short time. The disciples of the Cloud Sect are coming soon. Brother, go and collect all the secret books in the Scripture Pavilion first, then come and find a way to save me!"
Yang Li was stunned when he heard Jiang Yuan's words. He really didn't expect Jiang Yuan to say this. Looking deeply at Jiang Yuan, Yang Li said, "Okay, I will come out as soon as possible."
After that, Yang Li used his movement technique and rushed to the Scripture Pavilion. He wanted to collect all the secret books as soon as possible and then save Jiang Yuan. He was touched by Jiang Yuan's trust.
