Chapter 742 The Return of the Gods 26
The soles of his shoes were clean and free of mud, but due to long-term contact with the ice, the soles were wet. The cool dirty water beads flowed down Fengzui's smooth jade-like cheeks, which was even more insulting than the mud.
Although he was extremely angry, the emotions on Feng Zui's face faded away completely. He closed his eyes and began to concentrate on attacking the spiritual power of the last cycle.
Quan Jiu sensed a hint of danger from his leisurely movements. After putting on her clothes and shoes, her eyes fell on the man's naked chest.
The first thing she noticed when she took off his clothes was the Pantheon Chain on him. Under the wide monk's robe, the man's limbs were firmly locked with black iron chains as thick as his wrists.
Quan Jiu had always thought that he was sitting there against the mountain wall because he didn't want to move. But when he went around behind him, he found that the Pantheon Chain had merged with the mountain, limiting Feng Zui's range of movement.
The most amazing thing is the iron chain on his chest, which passes through the scapula from the back of his cervical vertebrae and then goes back around his back from his armpits. There are two bloody holes on the chest of the strong man in white clothes. It can be seen that the person who imprisoned him hates him to the extreme.
Quan Jiu looted everything and walked decisively towards the stone tablet. Even the stinky monk couldn't break the Seal of Ten Thousand Gods, so with her current level of cultivation, she was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot and was overestimating her own abilities.
When they arrived at the stone tablet, the tentacle monster had disappeared. Quan Jiu did not dare to relax his vigilance and sat down where he was.
She wanted to make sure of one thing.
"Is he a target?"
The system was sweating profusely. Compared to Quan Jiu, it looked like someone who had escaped from a tiger's mouth:
"……yes."
Quan Jiu: "Then why didn't you tell me when you saw him?"
The system looked terrified, as if it had just survived a disaster. "I think he can sense my presence."
Quan Jiu was stunned: "What do you mean?"
System: "Just now, I wanted to open my mouth to remind you, but at that moment, his pressure suddenly enveloped me. If I opened my mouth again, he would definitely be able to detect my presence."
This was the first time it encountered a target that could sense the existence of the system.
Not only that, the other party also posed a threat to it. If it had spoken without caring just now, it might have been finished now.
"As expected of the ultimate boss."
Quan Jiu gave her evaluation, and thinking of the grudge just now, the corners of her mouth twitched.
People have been thoroughly offended.
Quan Jiu began to look for a way to get out of the valley. Since she fell from above, could she get out by going back up?
With this thought in mind, she flew on her sword, but when she reached a height of more than 20 meters, it was as if there was an invisible transparent cover above her head, blocking her way out.
She was not surprised and returned to the Black Wind Valley to look for other exits.
The search lasted three days, during which she encountered two tentacle monsters and was chased by them all the way. She finally escaped safely.
………
The other end.
During the three days that Quan Jiu disappeared, more than one person went crazy.
“Dad, I beg you, you must save Sister Shen.”
Qiu Tang grabbed Qiu Heyun's robe and said the word "please" to him for the first time since he became an adult.
Qiu Heyun rubbed his aching eyebrows:
"Tang'er, it's not that Dad doesn't want to save her. According to what you said, there are Mahayana-level monsters in the maze, and there are traces of people falling on the cliff. Even if she wasn't swallowed by the monster, she would have fallen off the cliff and died long ago."
Even if she was lucky enough to avoid the monster and escape the cliff, what was below the cliff?
The monster had been sealed by the guards for more than three thousand years, and hated the temple and the hidden family to the core. As the temple's saint, Chen Luan fell into the Black Wind Valley, and there was basically no chance of survival.
Qiu Tang's face turned pale, and Lan Xiu wasn't much better.
“Uncle Qiu, Sister Shen is missing, and it is my unshirkable responsibility. If I don’t go to save her, I will never be at peace in my life.”
The other six of them also entered the maze. Qiu Tang and Aye even encountered a centipede in the Mahayana period. The reason they were able to escape was because they had a talisman left by their ancestors.
When encountering danger, one can crush the amulet and be teleported back to the sect. The core disciples of their secluded family all have one of these amulets. The reason why Liu Yao was able to escape was all thanks to Lan Xiu and others.
Qiu Heyun looked at the group of younger generations standing in front of him and sighed in embarrassment:
"Ah Xiu, you should know that there are only two ways to save people. One is to re-enter the maze and jump off the cliff, and the other is to unlock the seal of the Black Wind Valley..."
"The entrance to the maze appears and disappears mysteriously, with no apparent pattern. Even if you wanted to save people, you wouldn't be able to find the maze... As for the second method, even if Uncle Qiu didn't tell you, you know it's absolutely impossible."
How many of them died in order to suppress this monster?
Ji Mingye, who was always quiet, couldn't help but speak out, his tone was cold:
"Aren't you planning to strangle the monster when it breaks the seal?"
According to this logic, the seal will be broken sooner or later, so it is better to break it now.
He subconsciously felt that she would not die easily. If she didn't die, there was a high possibility that she would end up in the Black Wind Valley.
Chaoge nodded: "Yes, I have contacted my uncle, they are all rushing to Qiuyun Villa."
They are all future heirs, and no one is stupid. As soon as they found out that something might happen to Chen Luan, they informed the parents of all parties.
Qiu Heyun's face was heavy: "Let's talk about it after everyone arrives."
After leaving the villa, Lan Xiu and Qiu Tang looked at each other and saw deep helplessness in each other's eyes.
Qiu Tang spoke first, and said with a wry smile: "Ah Xiu, I have a bad suspicion."
Lan Xiu: "I'm the same as you."
The final outcome of the discussions between the major hidden families and the temples is most likely to be giving up power.
Qiu Tang shrugged, "It's not a surprise. I doubt my father would have released the seal for me even if I had fallen off the cliff."
Once the monster appears, it will wreak havoc on the world, and he won't be the only one to die.
It’s not because they are noble, but because they are normal people with bottom lines.
Qiu Heyun did not not love him. On the contrary, he was willing to sacrifice his life to save Qiu Tang, but he would not sacrifice all the innocent people in the world to save Qiu Tang.
The atmosphere was dead silent, and everyone looked unhappy.
"If the seal can't be broken, then I'll go to Sunset Forest and try my luck."
Qiu Tang stared at the dark blue bow and arrow hanging on his waist, his black pupils stained with moisture.
"If I had followed her closely that day, she wouldn't have gotten lost alone, nor would she have been chased by the monsters and fallen off the cliff, her life uncertain."
Lan Xiu: "I'll go with you."
The discussion results came out quickly, and as everyone expected, now was not a good time to lift the seal.
Looking at his silent son, Qiu Heyun felt bad too. He comforted him:
"Don't be sad, Tang'er. You tried your best. Maybe this is her fate."
