Chapter 427 Secret Realm
Yun Qingqing's yang spirit returned to his body, he opened his eyes and stood up. Without taking off the invisibility talisman, he flew away on his sword and rushed towards the direction where he had just received the message.
The news came from the newly refined black jade amulet she had made, which still contained a trace of her dormant consciousness.
That direction was where the protective amulet responded to her call. The spiritual consciousness had not been awakened yet, which meant that Xiao Changheng was not in danger of life, which made her feel a little relieved.
However, the target direction did make Yun Qingqing's heart move. She had just read the current situation and direction of the Xuanmen power structure in the Tianxuan Sect's classics.
The location where the signal came from was hundreds of miles north-east of the capital.
Medical Valley.
…
Strictly speaking, the Medical Immortal Valley is not just a valley, but a mountain range covering an area of one hundred miles in radius.
Different from other Xuanmen sects, Yixian Valley is the only sect that accepts ordinary people as disciples because this sect practices medicine.
When the founder of the school of medicine first founded it, he said that a doctor has a kind heart, and that practicing medicine is ultimately about cultivating a heart that can save the world. As long as one is committed to this path, no matter what one's aptitude is, one can get started.
Even if ordinary people can only learn some basic medical skills in the outer sect, as long as there is one more good doctor in the world, it can reduce the pain of many people and the training will not be in vain.
Yun Qingqing rode the sword all the way to the Medical Immortal Valley, her fingers subconsciously stroking the magic jade ring.
This ring came from the Medical Valley and was given to her by Doctor Tang.
All of the above gave Yun Qingqing a very good initial impression of the Medical Valley and alleviated some of her worries.
When she was still dozens of miles away from the Medical Immortal Valley, she once again made a hand gesture to summon the Xuanyu Protective Pendant, but this time there was no response until she arrived at the entrance of the Medical Immortal Valley.
Yun Qingqing frowned, knowing that this meant that the Xuan Jade Pendant had entered a place similar to a barrier, and she would have to use some means to find it.
The most urgent task is to enter the valley first.
"Young lady, are you here to seek a master to learn skills?" A doctor in a plain robe and carrying a medicine bag on his back saw her in front, walked up to her from a distance and asked.
Yun Qingqing pinched the jade ring and walked towards him.
…
At the same time.
Xiao Changheng traveled through mountains and rivers, searching among the mountains for a day and a night, and then ran into a fog.
After passing through the fog, the scenery in front of me suddenly changed.
Obviously, he should be among lush green mountains, but what he saw before him was an abrupt stone forest.
He was in a stone forest, surrounded by mist. The sun was not visible in the sky. Only the dim light passed through the gaps between the stone pillars, casting mottled shadows.
A strange sound could be faintly heard from the depths of the stone forest, which seemed to be a natural sound caused by the wind passing through the stone pillars, melodious and ethereal.
Strange patterns can be seen on the surface of the stone pillars here, occasionally emitting a faint blue light, as if containing endless secrets.
The surroundings were vast and desolate, and the mountains were no longer visible. Outside the stone forest, there seemed to be endless yellow sand, and nothing could be clearly seen if one looked closely.
This stone forest suddenly appeared after passing through the fog, looking weird and mysterious.
Xiao Changheng felt slightly happy.
Recalling the legend in his mind, he stood up lightly, used the force of the stone pillars to leap several times, and finally stood on the top of a stone pillar. He looked around and searched carefully.
He gradually approached the direction where the stone pillars were more densely packed while continuing to search. Finally, in the central area of the entire stone forest, on the top of the tallest stone pillar, he found a Ganoderma lucidum with a strange color.
Xiao Changheng immediately jumped up, picked the Ganoderma lucidum carefully in his hand, put it into a jade box, and then put the jade box into the black jade pendant.
He had discovered before that the Xuan Yu Pendant was empty except for the set of light armor and the long sword. After trying it, he found that other items could be put in it. Now he has placed many commonly used items in it.
Just as he turned around to leave, his expression suddenly changed and he quickly dodged, just avoiding a dart that was coming at him.
"Who!" Xiao Changheng looked fiercely in the direction where the hidden dart came from, but suddenly heard two sounds of breaking through the air coming from two other directions at the same time.
He dodged two hidden darts again, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, he raised his hand and a black long sword appeared in his hand. After shooting down another hidden dart, he slashed fiercely in one direction.
The sharp blade energy did not make much of a sound when it hit the stone pillar. However, a moment later, a slanted crack appeared in the center of the stone pillar, and the upper half slowly slid down and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The fracture is as neat as a mirror.
Xiao Changheng was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes to glance at the Xuan Yu Blade, slowly tightened the hilt, and frowned slightly.
Suddenly, a soft laugh was heard among the stone forest, and a person walked out slowly from the darkness.
The man was wearing a dark purple brocade robe with a crane pattern, his black hair was half tied up, and he tapped his palm lightly with the folding fan in his hand. His pair of bright phoenix eyes looked at Xiao Changheng with a half-smile, but there was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.
"What a great gift from the Regent Princess. A magical weapon of this grade will surely attract the attention of many masters of the Mystic Sect. But she actually gave it to an ordinary person like you, who has no cultivation, to use as a weapon. How enviable!"
While he was speaking, four people walked out from the darkness in other directions, with unfriendly faces and surrounded him.
"Yuwen Ye!" Xiao Changheng tightly grasped the black jade blade and looked at the other party with a cold gaze, "What do you mean?"
The person who came was the King of Bei Cangli, Yuwen Ye.
Yu Wenye's eyes curved and he tapped the folding fan in his hand:
"Leave the Nine-Colored Illusionary Ganoderma to me. For the sake of the Regent Princess, I will not embarrass you."
Xiao Changheng's eyes were cold and fierce, and he said calmly:
"Just give it a try!"
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude!" Yu Wen Ye curled his lips and sneered, raising his hand to make an attacking gesture, and the other four immediately attacked Xiao Changheng together.
The four of them were all equipped with Beicang's mechanical weapons and protective gear, but they were different from those they used in the previous competition in Liang State.
Xiao Changheng quickly realized that these four people were not ordinary people, and their mechanical equipment were also magical weapons.
The four of them cooperated well and changed their positions. The hidden darts in their equipment seemed to be endless and were attacking him.
Xiao Changheng danced with the black jade sword so fast that it turned into a sword shadow and knocked all the hidden darts away. However, the hidden darts were continuous like a storm, drawing deadly cold lights in front, behind, left and right of him.
Xiao Changheng's swordsmanship became more and more fierce, and the hidden darts never had a chance to break through the defense, but he knew very well that passive defense was not a long-term solution. Although the black jade blade in his hand could fight against the opponent's magic weapon, there was a most essential gap between him and these practitioners, and that was spiritual power.
When he used the Xuanyu Blade to fight against Chu Jingyan for the first time, he had not yet understood what was so special about the two sword auras he slashed out at the end.
Just as he cut through the stone pillar, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling when he drew his sword. Later, the neatly broken ends made him understand one thing: this cut was definitely not just the result of his own strength.
Xiao Changheng, who had never been able to sense spiritual power, suddenly felt the flow of energy at the moment of that slash.
At the same time, he also realized that the spiritual power contained in his sword was limited.
If he continued to use the sword energy to attack as he did just now, although the power would be great, the spiritual power in the sword would be reduced each time it was used, and it would be exhausted at any time, which would be fatal in actual combat.
