Suddenly seeing someone kneel down and beg for help, even though Yan Li had already collected his thoughts, he could not help but be astonished. Looking closely, the person in front of him was a young boy. Looking at his face, there was an indescribable feeling of familiarity.
"Ye Tian Xing, you, didn't you go back? Why are you here? "Huang Shaoyu was extremely surprised.
When Yan Li heard this name, he immediately remembered that the young boy was a disciple of the Cloud Pavilion Sword Forest. Was the hill master he mentioned Xie Yunfeng?
Xie Yunfeng had once taken the initiative to help him in his most difficult time. At that time, Yan Li did not even know his name. There were too few people like him in the cultivation world.
In any case, he could not leave him alone.
"Get up first and talk." He helped the young boy up, and then noticed that there was a middle-aged man with an unremarkable appearance with him. His head was drooping, and he had a dejected look on his face.
"Let's go somewhere else." He said and walked away.
"Then, then what about the flower wine …" Huang Shaoyu looked at the backs of the three people and then at the bewitching signboard above his head. He wanted to cry but had no tears. "I just want to drink flower wine. Why is it so difficult!"
After saying that, he stomped his feet and followed them bitterly.
…
He brought the young boy and the middle-aged man back to their residence and poured a cup of water for each of them. The young boy took it and thanked him politely. Then he said awkwardly, "Yan, Yan Tanhua, the hill master is in danger. I really don't know who to ask for help …"
Yan Li collected his thoughts and temporarily put aside his own matters. He said, "Don't panic. Tell me slowly. What happened to Hill Master Xie?"
The young boy looked at the middle-aged man angrily.
The middle-aged man drooped his head even lower and said tearlessly, "I, I only helped to find out some information. I didn't know it would become like this even if you beat me to death … I didn't mean to harm Boss Xie …"
"Tell me the matter." Yan Li said in a low voice.
The middle-aged man was shocked and said hurriedly, "I, I'm Tu Daming. My ancestors have been butchers for generations. Who knew that when it came to my generation, I would meet Boss Xie and cultivate a profession. I even joined the Heavenly Strategies Tower and became a spy …"
"Can you get to the point?" Huang Shaoyu walked in grumpily. "Who wants to hear about how you stepped into the path of cultivation? Just tell me what my brother-in-law did!"
Tu Daming hesitated for a while before saying, "Erm, erm, a few years ago, I was drinking with Boss Xie and found out that he was looking for an insect called the Blood Silkworm. I wanted to repay his kindness, so I asked a friend to help me ask around. A few days ago, my friend sent me a letter saying that he had found clues about the Blood Silkworm, so I told Boss Xie about it. "
"What is a blood silkworm?" Yan Li asked.
"It's a legendary and rare silkworm. It's said that the silk it spits out is blood-red, hence its name." Huang Shaoyu frowned. "Finding the Blood Silkworm is my aunt's dying wish. Brother-in-law definitely can't sit still for my cousin."
Ye Tian Xing nodded and said, "After receiving the news, Mountain Chieftain set off the next day."
"And then?" Yan Li asked.
Ye Tian Xing glared at Tu Daming again.
Tu Daming said dejectedly, "I made an agreement with Boss Xie that after he arrived there, he would send a letter to the tower every day to report that he was safe. At first, there was a letter every day, but half a month ago, it was suddenly cut off. I don't know what happened to Boss Xie, why we suddenly lost contact … If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have told Boss Xie even if you beat me to death …"
"Hmph!" Ye Tian Xing glared at Tu Daming. "If anything happens to Mountain Chieftain, I won't let you off!"
Tu Daming whined, "If anything happens to Boss Xie, even I won't let me off!"
"Where is that place?" Yan Li asked.
"Giant Deer Realm, Great Rift Abyss," Tu Daming said.
"Great Rift Abyss?" Yan Li found the name familiar.
"It's the border between the Human Realm and the Asura Realm," Huang Shaoyu said solemnly. "It's the place where the Fallen God Battle ended. It's said that strange things often happen there. "
"What strange things?" Yan Li asked.
"It's said that there are evil spirits that attack cultivators," Huang Shaoyu said.
"You believe it?" Yan Li asked.
"The rumors are very convincing, I have to believe it," Huang Shaoyu said.
"The so-called evil spirits are just pitiful creatures that stay in the Human Realm by relying on their obsessions and Yin energy. Even you don't have to worry about them hurting you," Yan Li said.
Huang Shaoyu said unhappily, "Anyway, many cultivators go missing after exploring there. How are you going to explain that?"
"You'll know when you see it," Yan Li said lightly.
"That's great, Yan Tanhua agreed to help. Mountain Chieftain can be saved," Ye Tian Xing said happily.
"I can only try my best," Yan Li said.
"I want to go too!" Ye Tian Xing said.
"No, you have a more important mission," Yan Li said.
"More important mission?" Ye Tian Xing said.
"Go and inform the people of Lulin." Yan Li glanced at Huang Shaoyu. "Even an outsider like me has intervened. I believe the Lion King won't sit back and do nothing?"
Huang Shaoyu snorted. "Do you think my father is a cold-blooded animal? You really measure the heart of a gentleman with your own mean measure!"
"This is the first time I've heard of a bandit calling himself a gentleman."
…
Xie Yunfeng licked his chapped lips and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He panted slightly and muttered to himself, "How long do you want to go in circles? It's okay, I'll slowly accompany you … "
It was a hole in the ground, a dull hole in the ground, but there was a faint light of fire.
The fire came from the deeper magma. It was bright red, like the demonic fire in hell, burning people's souls.
Xie Yunfeng had not drunk water for twelve days.
Before entering this cave, he realized that there was not much water in his Qiankun bag. He wanted to replenish it in the nearest town, but something unexpected happened. It was something that he had to complete even if he had to risk his life.
After rummaging through the Qiankun bag for a while, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. "There's only one spy left. I can only use it after confirming the information. I can only endure it for now."
The spy eye that he mentioned was not the spy eye that was responsible for gathering information. Instead, it was a kind of device that passed information to the Heavenly Policy Tower. It was a kind of precious artifact. Only the people of the Heavenly Policy Tower could obtain this kind of spy eye.
He swallowed his dry throat and thought for a moment. Then, he picked up a sharp stone and carved on the wall of the sulfur cave.
He carved it like this:
Year 45 of Shenwu, year 668 of the New Jambu Calendar, 6th of November. Looking for blood silkworms. Accidentally encountered the Fengtian Sect. Tracked for more than half a month. Suspected that this is the headquarters of the Fengtian Sect. Awaiting confirmation … If there is no further information, those who are fated to see it. Hope to find out the truth and announce it to the world.
Until now, no one knew where the headquarters of the Fengtian Sect was.
If they could find it, it was only a matter of time before they were annihilated. At the very least, they could discover the secret of their rebirth.
Thinking of this, Xie Yunfeng's body seemed to be injected with infinite vitality. His whole person became energetic again.
At this moment, a flying star whizzed through the air. He stretched out his finger and caught it. It was a small sword. A scene naturally appeared in his mind.
A bald man and a masked woman in a purple dress were walking in the cave.
"You can't escape!"
Xie Yunfeng held the small sword, lowered his head and muttered something. Then, he threw the small sword out.
He stood up and chased after them unhurriedly.
…
Yan Li and Huang Shaoyu took a boat straight down to the border of the Kingdom of Wei. Then, they changed to horses and rode at top speed. On the fourth day, they arrived at the Great Rift Abyss.
Beneath their feet were endless ice and rocks. The two stood on the edge of a cliff and looked into the depths. They felt that there was nothing more abyss than this.
Huang Shaoyu wrapped his clothes around his body and sighed. "Didn't they say that this place is hot? I'm freezing right now!"
An invisible Law Domain appeared. Faint sword shadows could be seen swimming in the void.
Huang Shaoyu instantly felt better. He narrowed his eyes and said, "This is your Law Domain? It doesn't look like much. "
Yan Li ignored the wind. He looked into the distance, but all he could see were endless clouds. There was the sound of the wind, like the sound of the tide, trying to drag the person on the cliff down.
It was as if he was standing in front of an abyss.
"There are blood silkworms in this place?" He was a little puzzled.
"Don't ask me." Huang Shaoyu spread his hands. "I'm not the one who provided the information. It's that Tu Daming."
He rolled his eyes. "Oh, do you think there's something wrong with that Tu Daming? Is he purposely trying to harm brother-in-law? "
"Then why are we still foolishly rushing in? Aren't we courting death?" He wanted to retreat.
Yan Li said indifferently, "Do you have a better idea?"
Huang Shaoyu thought for a while and said, "Why don't we wait for the experts of the Lulin Forest to arrive before going down? With just the two of us, we might not be able to save him and even lose our lives. "
"If you're not afraid of collecting his corpse, I don't care. He's your brother-in-law," Yan Li said.
"You're trying to shirk your responsibility!" Huang Shaoyu widened his eyes. "The person that Ye Tianxing asked for help was obviously you!"
"Then stop talking nonsense. Follow me down." Yan Li did not say anything else. He grabbed Huang Shaoyu's collar and jumped down.
"Hey hey hey, can't you be a little more cautious? What if an evil spirit comes out? Do you have a way to deal with it?" Huang Shaoyu muttered in shock.
"If there's such a possibility, I'll feed you to him so that you won't be so noisy anymore," Yan Li said in annoyance.
He carried Huang Shaoyu through the heavy fog and descended rapidly. Every time he descended a certain distance, he would borrow an ice rock to reduce the force of the fall and then continue to jump down.
They fell repeatedly like this for about an hour and reached an extremely deep position.
Yan Li suddenly stopped on a craggy black rock.
The white fog around them had disappeared and the temperature had risen. Not only did they not feel cold, they were sweating profusely as if they had entered a scorching summer.
Huang Shaoyu fanned himself with his hands. "Hey, are you kidding me? It's suddenly so hot. Is there a volcano below?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound from below. A stream of magma shot up into the sky like a fire dragon.
Yan Li quickly grabbed Huang Shaoyu and hid under a bunker. The magma splashed in mid-air like an opened umbrella.
