Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Jiayao called Qi Xuansu and said, "Find the entrance quickly. By this time tomorrow, these criminals will be resurrected. I have no ammunition."

Qi Xuansu had no choice but to separate with Qi Jiayao to search for the so-called entrance in the village.

This village is very simple. There is basically nothing special about it. It has neither formations nor mechanisms. It is just an ordinary village layout, used to house people. According to Qi Jiayao, these criminals were able to go without food, drink, or sleep. This sounds good at first, but it is a bit creepy when you think about it carefully. This is undoubtedly a kind of torture.

Finally, the two found a dry well, which was the entrance.

The mouth of the well was not big and could only be used by one person. Qi Xuansu thought that he would be protected by the "Guicang Lamp", so he entered the mouth of the well first, supported the walls of the well with his hands and feet, and descended slowly.

Then Qi Xuansu discovered that the further he went down, the larger the space became. Soon his arms could no longer touch the walls of the well on both sides, and he could only fall freely. From a height of more than ten feet, he fell with only the Kunlun stage cultivation level left. Qi Xuansu fell badly.

But Qi Xuansu was someone who had jumped off a flying boat before, so he couldn't be killed by a fall from this height.

Looking up again, you can only see a small point of light, which is the mouth of the well.

Qi Jiayao had Qi Xuansu's route exploration and knew what was going on. He found a rope in advance and slid down the rope.

Below the dry well is a huge underground cave. There are obviously some traces of man-made digging here, and it is unknown where it leads.

Qi Xuansu asked: "You and I now only have the cultivation level of an innate person. Even if we encounter an immortal, how can we collect it?"

Qi Jiayao refused to tell the truth: "It's hard to tell what the specific situation is now. We have all come to this point. We can't give up halfway. Let's find the fairy first."

Qi Xuansu said nothing and walked along the traces of artificial excavations in the underground cave.

I don't know how deep the cave is, but the whole cave is still downward. After walking for less than half an hour, a temple appeared in the sight of the two of them.

This temple built underground is perfectly integrated with the underground environment. However, it can be seen that this temple is not a legacy of the ancient witchcraft, but has some Taoist style.

Qi Xuansu speculated that this might be the temple built by Yao Zu. She was both a member of the witch sect and a Taoist sect, which was a fusion of the two.

The temple is not big. It is dug directly into the rock wall and is connected to the cave by a long step. The door is not closed and you can walk directly into it. After entering it, there was a structure similar to concentric circles under his feet. Qi Jiaoyao stepped on the small raised circles. The various talismans carved on the ground were lit up in sequence, showing a huge disk shape. Then Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao suddenly fell downwards with the disc under her feet.

Looking around, there is something like a well wall. There are two "ropes" on the left and right sides that are completely connected by illusory talismans. They are responsible for pulling the disc carrying the two people and controlling the descent speed.

Soon, the surrounding well walls disappeared, leaving only two "ropes" made of talismans pulling the disc down.

Looking outside, you can vaguely see a huge underground city, standing between various abyss cracks that have begun to collapse. Above is a fake starry sky. The fake stars are densely packed, making it not completely dark but with faint light. , as if this place is not located underground, but under the vast starry sky.

After a stick of incense, the disc fell to the ground. Below it was an altar-like existence, which just happened to catch the falling disc and fit perfectly.

Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao came from the altar. This was a commanding height, overlooking the underground city under the starry sky. They were amazed and amazed.

What a magnificent underground city this is.

In addition to various layers of temples, there are also some huge statues, almost a hundred feet high, all of which look like witches. There are no other great witches among the eleven witches. It seems that this underground city is Wuzhen's private "residence" and has nothing to do with other ancestral witches.

I can't imagine how much manpower and material resources were spent on building such an underground city.

Because there are too many space cracks, many places in the underground city are no longer accessible. Maybe there was originally another way to the underground city, but after the collapse of Lingshan Cave Sky, the way was blocked, so Yao Zu opened up another way.

In the middle of the underground city is a mountain, with many buildings built along the mountain. At the highest point is a palace with bright lights, which is closest to the "starry sky". From a distance, it looks like a fairy palace in the sky.

Qi Jiayao pointed to the palace: "The immortals are there, and the remains of Wu Zhen are also there."

Qi Xuansu frowned and said: "It may not be easy to pass through half of the underground city with our current level of cultivation."

Qi Jiaoyao said: "Don't worry, this is an empty city. All the witch clans here have been sucked dry by the witches, which actually saves us trouble."

After that, the two of them walked along the road under the altar to the underground city. As Qi Jiayao said, it was an empty city with no guards and no criminals.

On the contrary, you can see many empty shells along the way. The reason why they are called "empty shells" rather than corpses is because these remains still maintain the appearance of life, but they are empty inside, just like the empty shells left behind after the cicada sheds. It breaks when touched.

Seeing the mountain in the center of the underground city getting closer and closer, Qi Jiayao was a little excited: "A fairy object!"

Qi Xuansu poured cold water on her and said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. The last person who privately owned an immortal object was named Chen Shuhua. She was a great immortal. As for her fate, I also told you. How do you use the immortal object? I No matter. I just want the 'Xuanyu' and the relic."

Qi Jiayao was full of confidence: "Don't worry, the mountain man has his own clever plan."

Qi Xuansu tested again: "Fellow Daoist Qi, is your surname really Qi? Why do I think your surname is Yao?"

Qi Jiayao said happily: "Don't you have some relationship with the Yao family? Don't you know whether I am a Yao family? By the way, don't you know how to guess? You can guess."

Qi Xuansu said: "I guess your surname must be Yao. After all, it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves if you guard against them day and night."

Qi Jiayao glanced at Qi Xuansu: "Boy, being too suspicious is not a good thing. What about trust between people? If my surname is Yao, I am not born to my parents."

Qi Xuansu had no choice but to believe the words.

Soon, the two came to the foot of the mountain.

At this point, Qi Xuansu felt that his level of cultivation had been further suppressed, and he was almost turning into an acquired person. He could no longer even hold the "Dragon Painting Gun".

Qi Xuansu could only take back the "dragon-painting gun" into the Xumi object and take out the "Qingyuan" that had not been used for many years.

This is Qi Xuansu's treasure. It is not only a relic left by his master, but also a half-love object between Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu. After all, the names are Qingxiao and Tianyuan.

Qi Xuansu originally planned to use it as a thought object, but he never thought that one day he would use it as a weapon again.

Up to now, Qi Xuansu can also roughly deduce the magical power of this immortal object. It can be regarded as a typical bully and fear of the strong, and can weaken the realm of cultivation indiscriminately. However, Qi Xuansu does not think that this immortal object can weaken the realm of cultivation that suppresses the immortal. At most, it has some influence. , such as "Tianshi Seal", "Celestial Seal" and other blessings can only greatly increase the cultivation level of the immortal, but are not enough to improve a realm. Then it would be extremely useless to use it in a battle between immortals.

When an immortal deals with an opponent below the level of an immortal, he can still crush him without this immortal object. When an immortal deals with an opponent at the same level, as long as he does not fall below the level, he may not be able to determine the outcome. It would be even more useless if two people weakened the enemy together without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy.

The only use is probably when the enemy is outnumbered and encounters a situation where many heavenly beings are besieging the immortal, just like Chen Shuhua's situation, this immortal object can work wonders. But this kind of situation is not common. Even if it is a siege, there must be an immortal who is personally in charge.

And to be honest, Qi Xuansu's realm cultivation was suppressed to such an extent that he really didn't know how to get the immortal objects. It’s no wonder that the Earth Master simply didn’t set up any guards—immortals would not be affected, of course. If an immortal really sneaked into this place, unless the Earth Master placed “Di Shi Tian” in this place, setting up any guards would be in vain. ..

But looking at Qi Jiayao's confident look, he might have stolen some treasure from the Earth Master, or he might have some idea.

"This kind of exploration plot is more painful to write than squeezing out toothpaste."
