Feng Shao didn't believe that the Qiankun Palace had four great beasts. The reason was very simple. The four great beasts had long since transformed into the twenty-eight constellations. How could there still be four great beasts?
So Feng Shao’s first thought was that Deng Jingyun was talking nonsense.
But on second thought, Feng Shao felt that what Deng Jingyun said might be true. After all, there was no need for Deng Jingyun to lie about this kind of information.
After Feng Shao pondered for a while, he thought of several possibilities. However, speculation is just speculation after all, and whether it is true or not needs to be verified on the spot.
After the three of them finished their explanations, there was basically no more important information to be exchanged. Liu Shou and Shura Dao did have some information, but it had been covered by the information of the three.
Afterwards, after confirming the details of the cooperation, Feng Shao and Deng Jingyun left together.
After returning to Yunlan City, Deng Jingyun sent people to collect supplies everywhere. After all, the trip to Qiankun Palace was dangerous, so the more prepared, the more confident.
In fact, not only him, but everyone else who planned to enter the Qiankun Palace had the same idea in mind.
Before I knew it, it was September 19th.
That was the day before the ruins of Qiankun Palace appeared.
Before setting off, people from Taixuan Holy Land, Jiuyin Holy Land and Yunjian Pavilion found Feng Shao and had some discussions.
The people from Yunjian Pavilion were directly sent away by Feng Shao. After all, those who came to Qiankun Palace were all for the opportunities in Qiankun Palace. Feng Shao was a member of Yunjian Pavilion, so it was enough for Feng Shao to come out, and there was no need for other people from Yunjian Pavilion to go in.
But the process of sending Yunjian Pavilion away was not so smooth, because the leader of Yunjian Pavilion was none other than Xiaoyao Hall's eldest disciple Xiao Yuqing.
Xiao Yuqing was Lin Xiaoran's senior sister, so Lin Xiaoran had to give her some respect, not to mention that she was Lin Xiaoran's husband? Xiao Yuqing said frankly that she came here for the chance, but her main purpose was to take good care of Feng Shao. She didn't care if she died, but Feng Shao couldn't die, otherwise her junior sister would have to be a widow.
Feng Shao was at a loss for words. Although this woman had good intentions, what would it be of any use even if you took care of her? Would you take the bullet for me if I ran into danger?
Finally, after Feng Shao explained the situation to her, Xiao Yuqing had no choice but to return home.
But before leaving, Xiao Yuqing still said to Feng Shao fiercely: "Don't let Ran'er worry too much, otherwise all the sisters in Xiaoyao Hall will not let you go easily!"
Feng Shao: "...I understand, Senior Sister."
Well, on the one hand, Feng Shao had learned swordsmanship from Xiao Ruoyao, and on the other hand, he was Lin Xiaoran’s husband, so there was nothing wrong with calling her “Senior Sister”.
After seeing off Xiao Yuqing and others, Fang Yiming and Han Lingxuan went to see Feng Shao separately.
Fang Yiming and Han Lingxuan were not planning to enter the Qiankun Palace, but they were the leaders of this group. Their purpose in looking for Feng Shao was nothing more than to talk to Feng Shao about taking care of their junior brothers and sisters after entering the Qiankun Palace. Of course, if they really encountered a life-and-death crisis, they could only accept their fate.
This is typical social etiquette. Everyone knows that they will be competitors after entering the prison, so it is a bit nonsense to say that they will take care of each other. But after all, they have a good relationship with each other, so some polite words still need to be explained. Don't expect them to protect you after entering the prison, but at least don't do anything to each other directly.
It's not convenient to say this out loud, so everyone just keeps it to themselves.
That night, Feng Shao and Deng Jingyun packed their luggage, and then met up with Tang Fei and Liu Shou, and the group headed straight for the ruins of Qiankun Palace.
The original site of Qiankun Palace was located at the intersection of Moyun Mountain, Lingxiao Mountain and Poqiong Mountain. The three mountains that stretched for thousands of miles met in Zhongzhou, forming a vast basin covering tens of thousands of hectares. Qiankun Palace was located in this basin.
In the past, the basin was filled with spiritual energy and shrouded in mist. If you were in it, you could hardly see your hand in front of you. I don't know if it was caused by the natural environment or the influence of the Qiankun Palace ruins, but if a monk accidentally entered it, his perception would be greatly affected. In serious cases, he could not even tell the front from the back. You thought you were moving forward, but in fact you were moving backward. The huge difference between perception and action resulted in almost no one being able to walk out smoothly after accidentally entering it.
This is also one of the reasons why Qiankun Palace is listed as one of the ten forbidden areas.
Every hundred years, the clouds and mist in the basin will dissipate, and the time will last for about three days. During these three days, the Qiankun Palace, which has disappeared for thousands of years, will briefly reappear in front of the world. For the majority of cultivators, this is a great opportunity to seek opportunities.
However, as an ancient sect, Qiankun Palace's protective formation is powerful and complex, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter. What's more terrible is that this protective formation has an upper limit but no lower limit. In other words, only people below the specified realm can enter, and anyone above this realm cannot enter.
Some people have tried to hide their true intentions, but all of them failed. Some were lost forever, while others died under the continuous attacks of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder and the Nine Fields Strong Wind.
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder and the Nine Fields Strong Wind are the three great heavenly tribulations that are as famous as the Nine Heavens Fire. Their power can be imagined.
So over time, the Qiankun Palace became a place where the young generation of cultivators could play with their lives.
Thousands of monks came from afar early in the morning and surrounded the basin tightly. The righteous and evil forces, who used to beat people to pieces when they met, remained calm this time. In order to prevent fighting, the two sides, one in the south and the other in the north, shouted and cursed at each other from a distance, but they were clearly separated on both sides.
As for others who belong neither to the righteous path nor to the evil path, they stand between the two factions and act as a buffer.
Tang Fei was considered a righteous person, Liu Shou was considered a demonic person, while Feng Shao and Deng Jingyun were neutral. The small team of four people, of course, could not be considered on either side, so they stood in the neutral camp.
While waiting for the fog to dissipate, some bored monks started to talk to people they knew. Some monks would go up to provoke people they had a grudge against. From time to time, they would fight over a disagreement, but they would be stopped by the people around them. After all, there were so many people here, and it didn't matter if you fought, but what if you implicated others?
If they met someone who didn't listen to advice, the people around them would just make a plan and kill him. Anyway, he would die eventually, so it didn't make any difference whether he died in Qiankun Palace or outside the basin.
Among those who provoked him was naturally Tang Fei’s old boss, Liang Wei, the current Holy Son of Ziqing Holy Land.
Liang Wei brought the disciples of Ziqing Holy Land, stared at Tang Fei with resentment, and said coldly: "Tang Fei, you colluded with the demons without authorization. After entering Qiankun Palace this time, don't blame me for cleaning up the door for your master!"
Tang Fei glanced at him coldly, then looked away without saying a word.
He is too lazy to even pay attention to this kind of person.
Tang Fei's attitude made Liang Wei furious. He couldn't help but threaten Tang Fei a few more times, but Tang Fei still didn't respond. Unable to vent his anger, Liang Wei simply pointed the finger at Feng Shao and shouted angrily: "How dare the dignified Yunjian Pavilion interfere in the affairs of our Ziqing Holy Land! Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster to Yunjian Pavilion?"
After Tang Fei left, Liang Wei wanted to find trouble with Mu Qianqian, but he was unexpectedly protected by the people of Jiuyin Holy Land. Fang Yiming even lied with his eyes open, saying that Mu Qianqian was his lost sister, and anyone who dared to touch her would be an enemy of him, Fang Yiming. Liang Wei was so angry that he smashed several vases in the room.
Later he found out that Fang Yiming protected Mu Qianqian at Feng Shao's request, which made him hate Feng Shao as well.
Hearing this, Feng Shao just rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily: "If you have a trick, go ahead. If you don't, die!"
Everyone is waiting for Qiankun Palace to open, so who has the time to care about you?
Liang Wei: “…”
Liang Wei was about to curse back when he was so angry that he almost exploded. Suddenly, he felt a strong wind coming towards him and subconsciously dodged to the side. The next moment, he felt a pain in his ear. He stretched out his hand and touched blood.
Liang Wei was shocked and angry, but he heard Liu Shou say coldly: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will cut off your ears!"
Tsk tsk, this guy is really ruthless and doesn't talk much.
Liang Wei was furious and was about to take action, but he felt a few cold eyes cast on him, which made him feel cold all over. Those eyes came from masters from other sects. They were here to maintain order. Their eyes were warning Liang Wei that if he dared to take action, they would not show mercy to Liang Wei either.
As for Liu Shou's sword strike just now, firstly, it was a sudden stab, and secondly, he stopped when he saw the opportunity. In the eyes of the crowd who were determined not to make a big deal out of it, there was no need to be serious about it.
Therefore, the two of them were furious for a long time, but in the end they could only suffer in silence.
He couldn't help but secretly become ruthless and determined to teach these people a lesson after entering the Qiankun Palace!
Just as Liang Wei was thinking about how to deal with Tang Fei and the others after he went in, he heard someone exclaim, "They're coming out!"
Everyone turned their eyes to the basin, and saw that the thick mist that seemed to be substantial suddenly sank like the tide. In just a few moments, the mist sank nearly a hundred meters. In the mist, the outline of Qiankun Palace could be vaguely seen. Hundreds of magnificent palaces and pavilions were looming, like a fairyland on earth.
Deng Jingyun saw this scene and murmured, "I didn't expect this valley to be so deep. I don't know why the Qiankun Palace was built in such a place."
Feng Shao said calmly: "Everyone, get ready, it's time for us to leave."
As more and more buildings of the Qiankun Palace emerged from the mist, the monks could no longer suppress their excitement and rushed to the Qiankun Palace. At this moment, they forgot that this was not an ordinary palace complex, but the third forbidden area that could devour life!
Just as the first wave of people were about to reach the bottom of the valley, bright lights suddenly burst out from the crowd, accompanied by bursts of screams.
Obviously, someone took advantage of this chaotic moment and took action!
The valley bottom was already a restricted area for high-level monks, so the monks who maintained order could no longer care about the battle below. As the first group of people took action, more and more people joined in. Not long after, a huge fight broke out at the bottom of the valley, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while!
I didn’t expect that the first life-and-death battle in this line would break out at this time.
