Ji Taoist

After marching for a few days, Yan Buzhi and Hu Xueer stood on the canopy of the tree, looking at the towering trees in front of them.

"It shouldn't be." Yan Buzhi frowned, his heart wild and untamed, and the closer he got, the more uncomfortable he felt.

But after walking for a few days, based on their visual distance, reference direction and traveling speed, they should be able to see the situation near some towering trees.

But looking at it now, the scene is exactly the same as when I entered this place.

"Is the secret realm so big?" Hu Xueer looked strange, and she instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

The two of them were not too slow on their way. Although they encountered some monsters along the way, they were not injured or delayed. They were hurrying so slowly that they still looked like this.

"Yan has an idea." Yan Buzhi looked at the redwood forest ahead: "Let's go there first."

"good."

A few days later, the two arrived near the redwood forest and jumped onto the canopy again. Yan Buzhi looked at the towering trees in the distance and felt confident.

"Fellow Daoist Hu."

"Well, Fellow Daoist Yan, I understand what you mean." Hu Xueer said: "Judging from our speed, there is no problem in traveling a thousand miles in a day. In the past few days, we have traveled a hundred thousand miles at least. Even if No matter how big the secret realm is, our coordinates are that giant tree. Even if the giant tree is millions of miles away, we won’t see it exactly the same as before.”

Yan Buzhi nodded: "It seems that either we have entered the maze, or we simply can't get there using normal methods."

Hu Xueer looked around, frowned and said, "Fellow Taoist, wait a moment."

Hu Xueer took out a Bagua compass, and Yan Buzhi looked at it as similar to the dragon calming disk he used before.

As Hu Xueer poured mana into it, the Bagua Disk emitted microwave light and spread around.

"No." Hu Xueer looked at Yan Buzhi: "No one has set up a formation nearby, and there is no natural formation. It should still be a problem with the giant trees."

"Do you have any ideas, Fellow Daoist Hu?" Yan Buzhi asked.

Hu Xueer thought for a moment: "What if that giant tree is not in this secret realm?"

"Not there?" Yan Buzhi looked strange: "What do you mean?"

Hu Xueer smiled and said, "Do you know, Fellow Daoist Yan, that there is a formation within a formation?"

"I know, one formation hides another formation... Hu Daoyou means, is there another secret realm in this secret realm?"

Hu Xueer nodded: "Maybe it's like this. It's like the towering giant tree is just the shadow reflected by the secret realm in the secret realm, so no matter how we rush, all we see is just the shadow. There is no such thing as saying that we can see it after we get close. To get the full picture, we have to find the secret place.”

"If that's the case." Yan Buzhi looked around: "But I don't know if that secret realm exists."

"Let's look for it first. Haven't Fellow Daoist Yan been observing the stars these past few days? Maybe it has something to do with this?" Hu Xueer pointed to her chin and thought for a moment.

Astrology?

Yan Buzhi frowned and took out the star chart he drew.

"Wood belongs to the east, but east is the South Pole star; fire and wood are reversed, and if wood is used to make fire..."

Yan Buzhi pointed: "Go south. If I guessed correctly, there should be water."

Hu Xueer nodded and followed Yan Buzhi's instructions to change direction.

Soon after, the two came to a pool. Yan Buzhi looked around and made some calculations.

"By the way, what day of the month is it when you enter the secret realm?"

"According to the human calendar, it falls on August 12th."

Yan Buzhi calculated with his fingers: "Then today is October 11th, just right."

"Fellow Daoist Hu, can you see anything unusual here?"

Hu Xueer walked over and looked at the pool: "I can't see anything strange."

"And bombard this place with fire."

"good."

A ball of fox fire condensed in the palm of Hu Xueer's hand. The scorching heat distorted the surrounding air, and Yan Buzhi took a few steps back.

"go!"

Hu Xueer drank, and the fox fire flew to the water pool, and a huge pillar of fire rose into the sky with a bang. Along with the pillar of fire, the space was distorted again, and a door of light gradually formed!

"Opened?!" Hu Xueer said in surprise.

"Walk!"

The two rushed into the door, and the door outside gradually became quiet because the fox fire disappeared.

After entering the secret realm, Yan Buzhi saw no living creatures wherever he looked.

It is desolate, with dead branches and leaves all around under the gray sky, and life is hard to see on the gravel land. From time to time, there is still a dense miasma floating around, giving people a lifeless feeling.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, this is..."

"Fellow Daoist Yan! Over there!"

Hu Xueer's eyes widened and she pointed forward.

Um?

Yan Buzhi hadn't noticed yet. In front of a huge tree in the distance, there were actually several people fighting in the sky. The person fighting them seemed to be an extremely powerful monster. It didn't look like a beast. It seemed to be a spear in the form of a spear.

"Go and take a look first."

"Um!"

The two set off immediately and arrived at the battlefield soon.

Looking at the people in the sky, except for them, the other four people were all here.

Xue Qing released a burst of cold air, blocked the attack of the strange monster that slowed down, and shouted: "Quick!"

I saw a few other people quickly casting spells, hitting the monster with various spells, and quickly killed it on the spot.

"Fellow Taoists, thank you very much." Wang Tiansheng's voice came from the water polo. He was a little weak and seemed to have been injured before.

"It doesn't matter." Xue Qing looked ahead: "Let's go there quickly."

Yan Buzhi looked at it, then walked out and said, "Fellow Taoists, are you here too?"

"Fellow Daoist Yan, Fellow Daoist Hu? You guys have come in too, that's great!" Xue Qing said happily.

Hu Xueer came over and frowned: "Fairy Xueqing, should you explain it to us?"

Xue Qing was stunned for a moment, and the others also looked at each other.

Yan Buzhi looked at their expressions, and it seemed that everyone had some doubts before they met.

Xue Qing nodded: "Everyone just happened to be here, so I'll talk about the situation here. Have you seen that giant tree?"

"That is?"

"That is the tomb of Emperor Muji." Xue Qing said seriously: "I didn't tell everyone clearly before because I was worried about leaking the news. If the demon clan knows that we sneaked here to search for treasures, it will definitely cause huge trouble."

Hu Xueer frowned: "But..."

Yan Buzhi stretched out his hand to signal Hu Xueer to stop talking.

Turning around, he looked at Xue Qing with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Xue Qing, then why didn't you tell us before that there was actually a secret realm in this secret realm? It made us wander around like headless flies for so long."

Xue Qing smiled bitterly: "It's hard for fellow Taoist, but I didn't know that there was a secret realm in this secret realm. When I found other fellow Taoists, I originally thought of going directly from the secret realm of the sea of ​​trees to the towering giant tree, but I left. It took me a long time to realize that something was wrong, so I tried my best to enter this place. These fellow Taoists can also testify that we have just entered."

Several others nodded.

Yan Buzhi said: "In this case, Yan has nothing to ask. Does Fellow Daoist Hu still have any questions?"

Hu Xueer looked at Xue Qing, then at Yan Buzhi, shook her head and said, "No more."

Xue Qing smiled: "That's just right, we finally meet up and can officially start exploring this secret realm!"
