Luoyun City, east of the city, Songlin Pavilion.

Yi Ming walked into this ordinary medicine shop. The shopkeeper behind the counter suddenly looked up and asked, "Dear guest, do you want to sell medicine or buy medicine?"

"I want to meet Master Zheng Qin of your pavilion."

The shopkeeper blinked, "Zheng Qin? Why is it him again?"

Yi Ming raised his eyebrows, "Has anyone come to see him before?"

The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "I wonder what the distinguished guest wants to see Zheng Qin about?"

"Ask about the man who came to see him before. That man is my brother." Yi Ming looked at the shopkeeper and said lightly.

"Impossible, the snake and insect immortals of the Erxian Sect have already been sacrificed and refined."

The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!

"I see. Are you sure that all the missing people are dead?"

Yi Ming soon met Zheng Qin in a side hall. This was a wealthy old man in his sixties with a kind face. "Master Zhao, yes, I have seen him. He is a bodyguard hired by my junior brother. He brought me twelve yellow-grade lower-grade spiritual plants. I also wrote a receipt for Master Zhao and sent it back to my junior brother."

"How should I know?"

"Oh my goodness, so many monks are missing, could it be the work of the Second Immortal Sect, preparing to sacrifice the two snake and insect immortals again?"

"The stone monsters are all gradually mutating due to the pressure in Luoyun Stone Gorge. How come there are suddenly more of them?"

“This is really…”

But if Zhao Xiaopeng really went to Luoyun Shixia and did not come out for such a long time under the pressure of Shixia, then it would be really dangerous.

"Strange, Luoyun Stone Gorge has been here for so many years, and we have explored almost all the dangers inside. Logically, as long as we are careful, it shouldn't be that easy to die, right?" The first person said curiously, "I haven't heard that there are suddenly more stone monsters inside?"

"Speaking of which, do you feel that in recent times, there are more monks entering Luoyun Stone Gorge than coming out?"

Yi Ming's eyes flickered. Zhao Xiaopeng had been escorting escorts for many years and had rich experience in the martial arts world. Although he had never been in the cultivation world, he still had some common sense and self-knowledge. In addition, the skills and escape techniques he practiced were also of the best grade in the yellow level. The dangers that generally only involved the Qi Refining Stage would not necessarily kill him. The stone monsters outside the Luo Yun Stone Gorge could not kill him either.

The shopkeeper looked as if he had suddenly realized something. "Is it that Taoist friend surnamed Zhao? I remember him, but he came over that day, gave Zheng Qin a bag of herbs, and then left."

Although the shopkeeper of Songlin Pavilion behaved a little strangely, it was still within the normal range. After all, anything was possible in the world of cultivation, and once someone asked for information, you always had a feeling that it would not be good.

"Luoyun Stone Gorge is not very big, and the spiritual plants in the deepest part are said to be only of the lower Xuan grade, so there are not many Condensation Stage cultivators here on weekdays." One of the cultivators explained, "And the missing ones are all Qi Refining Stage cultivators, and the Condensation Stage seniors won't care about our lives."

Yi Ming could not help but remain silent. According to Zhao Xiaopeng's pace, if he really had entered Luoyun Stone Gorge, he should have been there for half a month by now, and his body would probably be cold.

Thinking about the time when I traveled through time to the escort agency, for nearly a year, the person closest to me is Zhao Xiaopeng. Although he is a bit reckless and naive, he is indeed a good friend. Moreover, when I first traveled through time, it was he who took me along the way to familiarize myself with this strange world so that I would not be exposed.

Yi Ming nodded.

"please."

Yi Ming was certainly unwilling to accept such a result. He had asked people along the way, but Zhao Xiaopeng's appearance was too ordinary. He was neither a stunning beauty nor a suave and elegant young man. He was just an ordinary young man, and even his appearance was not very distinctive. People saw at least eighty such people a day. Who would have an impression of him? Yi Ming had no choice but to leave without any news from Songlin Pavilion. He walked towards the restaurant next to him while thinking about the route from Luoyun City to Linluo City.

The thousand-year catastrophe man-made by the Erxian Sect happened recently, so almost everyone knows about it, and almost everyone will be associated with the Erxian Sect first if there is any blame.

The shopkeeper of Songlin Pavilion nodded. He could see that Yi Ming was in the late stage of Qi Refining and his combat power was not weak. Because he was at the same level as Yi Ming, he felt a little nervous when facing him.

"Can I meet Master Zheng Dan?"

The man smiled bitterly, "No one can find him alive, and no body can be found after his death. Moreover, he disappeared in Luoyun Stone Gorge. Is there any other reason?"

"Hello both. Do you know when the mutation occurred in Luoyun Stone Gorge?" Yi Ming stood in front of the two cultivators and asked in a deep voice.

After discussing with Lin Tingyang that day, he waited for another three days, but Zhao Xiaopeng still did not return, so he left Linluo City again and rushed all the way to Luoyun City.

The further Yi Ming walked, the deeper his frown grew, because after much thought, he decided that the most worthwhile place to visit along the way was Luoyun Stone Gorge.

The shopkeeper called a waiter and asked him to lead Yi Ming to the backyard of the attic. "It happens that Master Zheng Dan is on his day off today and is not refining the elixir. You can meet your distinguished guest."

"If Xiaopeng wanted to go for training because he had nothing to do after delivering the dart safely, then what place of training would he be most likely to go to along the way?"

"certainly."

"sure."

"Thank you very much."

"Really?" Yi Ming muttered to himself, staring at the shopkeeper of Songling Pavilion, frowning and saying nothing.

Seeing Yi Ming frown, Zheng Qin seemed to have guessed what was going on, "Master Zhao didn't go back?"

"So long?" Yi Ming frowned, "Didn't any Nascent Soul cultivator go in to take a look?"

Yi Ming's sudden appearance scared them, and then they felt the aura of Yi Ming, who was in the late stage of Qi training, and they became even more afraid.

Zheng Qin's face was solemn. She nodded but did not say anything to comfort him. In the cultivation world, death was too common.

Two monks passed by Yi Ming, and one of them said thoughtfully, "Not only that, I heard from many fellow monks that their familiar friends disappeared after entering Luoyun Stone Gorge."

"Why is that?"

But if some unknown accident happened in Shixia, then nothing could be predicted. For example, the time when I was in Hongmang Mountains, I was basically wandering around in the early stage of Qi Refining, and yet I ran into the Second Immortal Sect who were refining the Golden Que Snake. How could this be justified?

"What's that?"

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

Yi Ming suddenly felt a little regretful about teaching the Dalin Escort Agency the cultivation techniques. Anyway, all the cultivation families in Linluo City had been cleared out by him, and the Escort Agency should not be in danger in the next few years.

Once he passed on his martial arts skills, it actually led to Zhao Xiaopeng's death.

"However, is there something strange happening in Luoyun Gorge? Is there a missing cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage? I want to see what is going on here!"

Yi Ming had a cold expression, and then he fled quickly towards the Luoyun Stone Gorge.
