Hua Shi and Xuan Shuzhi followed the silver track. Xuan Shuzhi showed no abnormality along the way, but Hua Shi was very cautious and asked Liu Qishuang quietly in his heart: "Where exactly is this place? What is so special about these places that the black snake would choose this place?"
Fang Wei was also thinking about these questions. He had been thinking about these questions since Cheng Song pointed out the marks on the map to Xuan Shuzhi half a day ago. What exactly do these places represent?
There are more than forty places in the entire Xuanqing Continent where traces of the black snake have been left. These places include mountains and wilderness like the one in front of us, as well as towns and lakes. They don't seem to have anything in common, but it doesn't seem to be a coincidence.
Fang Wei carefully recalled the records about the Xuanqing Continent over the years, or the legends left by the ancient tribes many years ago. It was not until a long time later that he finally remembered an extremely ancient rumor.
It is said that when the Spirit of Xuanqing first came to Xuanqing Continent from the Spirit Realm, after reaching an agreement with the humans on the continent, it left several magic arrays on Xuanqing Continent. It was because of those magic arrays that the Spirit Realm and Xuanqing Continent could be briefly connected at a specific time and controlled by specific people.
The door connecting Xuanqing Continent and Lingyu is in Tianqing City, and Tianqing City is the center of those formations.
The locations of those formations were exactly the same as the locations he saw Chengsong mark today.
The other party is still planning to attack the domain gate!
Fang Wei was thinking a lot, and even Hua Shi could see it. He was about to ask Fang Wei, but Xuan Shuzhi, who was walking in front of him, suddenly noticed that his expression was strange and asked, "What did you think of?"
As the master of Xuanling Pavilion, Xuan Shuzhi was far superior to Hua Shi in terms of experience and judgment. When he took the initiative to ask, the person he was asking was naturally not his disciple Hua Shi.
Hua Shi was slightly stunned. For some reason, he felt as if he had become a mouthpiece. He asked Fang Wei, but before he could be surprised by what Fang Wei said, he told Xuan Shuzhi everything.
Xuan Shuzhi frowned for a long time after hearing this: "Spiritual Realm?"
Hua Shi asked: "Master, what have you thought of?"
Xuan Shuzhi shook his head and stared thoughtfully at the direction of the silver track in the distance: "I always feel something is wrong."
Hua Shi couldn't figure out what was wrong, but he believed Xuan Shuzhi's judgment made sense. He was about to ask again, but Xuan Shuzhi had already stepped forward and said, "Let's find the black snakes as soon as possible. No matter what they plan to do, we can only stop them if we find them."
Seeing Xuan Shuzhi summon the flying sword again, Hua Shi immediately took the initiative to step on it and said, "Master, are the other seniors also looking for the black snake now?"
Xuan Shuzhi urged his flying sword to fly into the air: "When I asked you to pack your things and prepare, I had already informed everyone about the black snake. They are probably all at their respective locations now."
Hua Shi had nothing more to ask now, and he finally calmed down. After gradually getting used to Xuan Shuzhi's speed, he could also think about other things while riding on the flying sword in the air. However, because the speed was too fast, they did not track him very far. Just when Hua Shi was chatting with Liu Qishuang in his mind, he suddenly saw another figure passing by in the sky. When he recognized that figure, he immediately widened his eyes and said, "Senior Bai Heng!"
The figure flying past them was indeed Bai Heng, Bai Heng who was stepping on the sword and flying with it.
Hua Shi's surprise showed on his face: "Can a knife fly?"
"Who said that only swords can fly?" Xuan Shuzhi taught his disciple angrily and amusedly, "As long as you have the skills, you can fly with any weapon. The sword is just used to gain leverage."
He didn't want to talk too much about this with Hua Shi. He drove the sword under his feet to Bai Heng's side. Bai Heng had also noticed the two of them early. At this time, the two parties were rushing in the air while rushing towards the track of the silver line. Xuan Shuzhi asked: "You also followed the traces of the black snake to here?"
Bai Heng frowned and nodded. Looking at Xuan Shuzhi and Hua Shi's expressions, he immediately understood: "You too."
It seems that the trajectory of the black snake should eventually point to the same direction. Xuan Shuzhi pondered and said, "Then maybe we will see other people soon."
Bai Heng shared the same opinion as Xuan Shuzhi. She pursed her lips tightly and chased after Xuan Shuzhi and Hua Shi side by side. After a long while, she said in a low voice, "I have a bad feeling."
Xuan Shuzhi □□ glanced at her figure and sighed helplessly: "To be honest, I am the same."
Hua Shi did not dare to interrupt the two elders when they were talking, so he just stood on his sword and hid behind Xuan Shuzhi to listen. When their conversation reached this point, he carefully muttered to Liu Qishuang: "The Fengyu Palace uses fans as weapons, does it mean that they have to step on the fans?"
Fang Wei was still concentrating on thinking about the intentions and movements of the monster in the abyss. Hearing Hua Shi's words, he couldn't help but laugh: "They have their own way of traveling."
Hua Shi was a little disappointed after hearing this: "So it wasn't the fan that he stepped on."
He was talking to Fang Wei when he saw two figures appear from the left and right at the same time. They were Yi Zhan and Wen Zhong, and there was no doubt that they were pointing to the same place.
The four of them looked more and more solemn. After they met, they said nothing more and just kept moving forward along the track until they finally stopped above a woods somewhere outside Tianqing City.
Someone was flying towards them from a distance. Hua Shi leaned over to look and met Lu Yao's gaze.
Unlike Xuan Shuzhi and the others who used flying swords, Lu Yao flew into the air without any weapons. However, Hua Shi was no longer in the mood to be surprised. He looked at the woods below and realized that several people had already gathered there. They were all faces he had seen at the Spiritual Transformation Conference.
Are these the leaders and elders from various sects who went to investigate the whereabouts of the Black Snake?
Hua Shi reacted immediately and quickly turned his gaze to Xuan Shuzhi.
He had previously learned from Senior Cheng Song that the leaders of various sects were investigating the whereabouts of the black snake, and now they were gathered here. Not only that, there were still many people from Tianji rushing towards this direction. This clearly meant that all the black snakes that had appeared in the Xuanqing Continent before had gathered here. What did this mean?
Could it be that Black Snake is carrying out some unknown plan?
Hua Shi felt a chill down his spine because of his own thoughts. He had always been extremely alert to danger, and this situation, no matter how he thought about it, could not be a good sign.
At this moment, he heard Liu Qishuang's voice in his mind saying, "You are right, but I don't know if there is still a chance to stop them now."
Hua Shi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that he had spoken these thoughts in his mind without knowing when.
While Hua Shi was stunned, there was another movement in the distance. Hua Shi saw that it was the current leader of Hanxi Sect and his disciple Zhou Li. The two seemed to have come here following the trail of the black snake. When Hua Shi saw the two, his first reaction was to go back and look for Wen Zhong. Seeing that Wen Zhong had specially put on a mask to disguise himself, he was slightly relieved. Fortunately, they would not be in chaos before they saw the enemy.
The leader of Hanxi Sect came flying on his sword, and naturally saw the people who were in the sky at this time. However, he did not waste time. After a simple nod when meeting Xuan Shuzhi and others, he controlled the flying sword to the ground and talked with the people on the ground to understand the situation.
Xuan Shuzhi's eyes were cold and serious. He turned back to look at everyone and said, "Go down and take a look."
Yi Zhan was the first to nod. He saw the seriousness of the matter and showed no sign of his usual joking and laziness. He immediately went among the crowd.
Hua Shi remained silent, and as Xuan Shuzhi led him closer to the group of people in the woods, his heart beat faster and faster. At this moment, he actually understood the bad premonition that Senior Bai Heng had mentioned on the road.
There was clearly no danger in sight, and there were many seniors in the forest who were sure to protect their safety, but Hua Shi couldn't control his pounding heart. He gently raised his hand to cover his chest, feeling as if there was something empty in his chest that couldn't be grounded.
He couldn't help but carefully move his right hand down and press it on the Yunxiu pen through his clothes.
As long as there is the slightest movement, he can immediately take out the Lingsha Sword from the Yunxiu Pen, or open the Yunxiu Pen space and hide in it.
"Master Xuan." At this time, someone noticed Xuan Shuzhi's arrival and took the initiative to greet him.
Xuan Shuzhi nodded slightly in response, and then asked, "Is the Spiritual Master here?"
The senior from an unknown sect was the one he was talking to, and Hua Shi could not recognize him. When he first participated in the Spirit Transformation Conference, he was just a young master who had just gone out. He was not familiar with the entire Xuanqing Continent at all, so naturally he could not recognize the identities of other people. Later, when he entered the Xuanling Pavilion, he often stayed in the Xuanling Pavilion to practice, so until now he still could not recognize all these seniors.
Fortunately, no one paid attention to Hua Shi behind Xuan Shuzhi, and this was not the time to introduce each other. The senior only glanced at Hua Shi and then said, "The Spiritual Master has received the notice and is on his way. He will arrive soon."
Xuan Shuzhi said "hmm" absentmindedly, and then asked: "When did Master Liu arrive? What's the situation inside now?"
The man looked into the woods with a strange look on his face. "I just arrived not long ago, and the others found this place by following the traces of the black snake just like me. I guess you guys did the same, right?"
Xuan Shuzhi looked at Yi Zhan, Bai Heng and others behind him and nodded silently.
The man smiled bitterly and said, "The first people who came here seemed to have killed two black snakes here, but the death of the black snakes was very strange. Rather than being killed, it seemed more like they disappeared out of thin air. The severity of the incident has exceeded our expectations. If we had not been notified in advance and have been investigating the black snakes for some time, I am afraid that when the incident really broke out, we would not know what happened."
When Hua Shi heard this, his heart moved slightly, and he almost immediately thought of the situation he and Liu Qishuang encountered when they defeated the black snake in the Yunxiu Pen space.
The scene was exactly the same as what the senior in front of me described.
He later heard Liu Qishuang explain that the black snake in Yuan Lake became so strong because it absorbed some special power, and the two black snakes that had just been killed in the woods obviously did not absorb or did not have time to absorb that power.
With the presence of the seniors, Hua Shi did not dare to speak rashly, so he could only ask Liu Qishuang in his mind: "What are those black snakes doing in this forest?"
Fang Wei pondered in silence, and gradually figured out the intention of the monster in the abyss from the movements of the black snakes.
Before he opened his mouth to respond to Hua Shi, the crowd burst into a commotion about this matter, and then Ji Yuan brought everyone from the Lingdao headquarters into the woods.
